[0002] An organic light-emitting device is a self-luminous device in which electrons injected from an electron injection electrode (cathode electrode) and holes injected from a hole injection electrode (anode electrode) combine in the light-emitting layer to form excitons, which then emit energy and emit light. Such organic light-emitting devices have the advantages of low driving voltage, high brightness, wide viewing angle, and fast response speed, and are applicable to full-color flat panel light-emitting displays, making them attracting attention as next-generation light sources.

[0003] In order for such an organic light emitting device to exhibit the above-mentioned characteristics, it is necessary to optimize the structure of the organic layers in the device and ensure that the materials constituting each organic layer, such as a hole injection material, a hole transport material, a hole blocking material, a light emitting material, an electron transport material, an electron injection material, and an electron blocking material, are supported by stable and efficient materials. However, there is still a need to continue developing stable and efficient organic layer structures and materials for organic light emitting devices.

[0004] In particular, to achieve maximum efficiency in the light-emitting layer, the energy bandgaps of the host and dopant must be appropriately matched so that holes and electrons can transfer to the dopant via stable electrochemical pathways, respectively, to form excitons.

[0058] The organic layer of the organic light emitting device according to the present invention may have a single layer structure or a multi-layer structure in which two or more organic layers are stacked. For example, it may have a structure including a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a hole blocking layer, an emitting layer, an electron blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, etc. However, it is not limited thereto and may include fewer or more organic layers. The organic layer structure of a preferred organic light emitting device according to the present invention will be described in more detail in the examples below.

[0059] An embodiment of the organic light emitting device according to the present invention will now be described in more detail. The organic light emitting device according to the present invention includes an anode, a hole transport layer, an emitting layer, an electron transport layer, and a cathode. If necessary, the organic light emitting device may further include a hole injection layer between the anode and the hole transport layer, and may further include an electron injection layer between the electron transport layer and the cathode. In addition, one or two intermediate layers may be further formed, and a hole blocking layer or an electron blocking layer may be further formed. As described above, the organic light emitting device may further include organic layers having various functions, such as a capping layer, depending on the characteristics of the device.

[0060] Meanwhile, a specific structure of an organic light emitting device according to an embodiment of the present invention, a manufacturing method thereof, and materials for each organic layer will be described below. First, an anode is formed by coating the substrate with an anode material. The substrate can be a substrate commonly used in organic light-emitting devices, but an organic substrate or transparent plastic substrate is preferred due to its transparency, surface smoothness, ease of handling, and water resistance. The anode material is typically indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), tin oxide (SnO), zinc oxide (ZnO), or other transparent and conductive materials.

[0061] A hole injection layer is formed on the anode electrode by vacuum thermal deposition or spin coating of a hole injection layer material, and then a hole transport layer is formed on the hole injection layer by vacuum thermal deposition or spin coating of a hole transport layer material.

[0062] The hole injection layer material is not particularly limited as long as it is commonly used in the art. Specific examples include 2-TNATA [4,4',4"-tris(2-naphthylphenyl-phenylamino)-triphenylamine], NPD [N,N'-di(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenylbenzidine], TPD [N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine], and DNTPD [N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis-[4-(phenyl-m-tolyl-amino)-phenyl]-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine].

[0063] The material for the hole transport layer is not particularly limited as long as it is a material commonly used in the art. For example, N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-[1,1-biphenyl]-4,4'-diamine (TPD) or N,N'-di(naphthalen-1-yl)-N,N'-diphenylbenzidine (α-NPD) can be used.

[0064] Next, a hole-assisting layer and an emitting layer are sequentially stacked on the hole-transporting layer, and a hole-blocking layer can be optionally formed on the emitting layer by vacuum deposition or spin coating. The hole-blocking layer prevents the device's lifetime and efficiency from decreasing if holes pass through the organic emitting layer to the cathode. The hole-blocking layer uses a material with a very low HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital) level to prevent this problem. The hole-blocking material used is not particularly limited, but should have electron transport capability and a higher ionization potential than the emitting compound. Typical examples include BAlq, BCP, and TPBI.

[0065] The hole blocking layer may be made of, but is not limited to, BAlq, BCP, Bphen, TPBI, TAZ, BeBq2, OXD-7, Liq, and the like. An electron transport layer is deposited on the hole blocking layer by vacuum deposition or spin coating, followed by forming an electron injection layer. A cathode electrode is formed on the electron injection layer by vacuum thermal deposition of a metal for forming a cathode, thereby completing an organic light emitting device according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0066] Here, lithium (Li), magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), aluminum-lithium (Al-Li), calcium (Ca), magnesium-indium (Mg-In), magnesium-silver (Mg-Ag), etc. can be used as the metal for forming the cathode, and a transmission type cathode using ITO or IZO can be used to obtain a front light emitting element.

[0067] The electron transport layer material has a function of stably transporting electrons injected from the cathode, and known electron transport materials can be used. Examples of known electron transport materials include quinoline derivatives, particularly tris(8-quinolinolato)aluminum (Alq3), TAZ, BAlq, beryllium bis(benzoquinolin-10-olate: Bebq2), and oxadiazole derivatives (PBD, BMD, BND, etc.).

[0068] In addition, each of the organic layers may be formed by a monomolecular deposition method or a solution process. Here, the deposition method refers to a method of forming a thin film by evaporating a material used to form each of the layers by heating under vacuum or low pressure conditions, and the solution process refers to a method of mixing a material used to form each of the layers with a solvent and forming a thin film by methods such as inkjet printing, roll-to-roll coating, screen printing, spray coating, dip coating, and spin coating.

[0069] In addition, the organic light emitting device according to the present invention may be used in a device selected from a flat display device, a flexible display device, a monochrome or white flat lighting device, a monochrome or white flexible lighting device, a vehicle display device, a virtual or augmented reality display device, etc. [Example]
