[0048] According to still other embodiments, the organometallic compound is also one of Compounds 1 to 72 shown below, but is not limited thereto. [Chemical Formula] [Chemical Formula] [Chemical Formula] [Chemical Formula] [Chemical Formula] [Chemical Formula]

[0049] The organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 satisfies the structure of Chemical Formula 1 mentioned above. Due to the structure in which A5, which is a group of two or more rings that necessarily includes a six-membered ring, is condensed to A4, which is a five-membered heterocyclic group, it is suitable for deep blue emission. An electronic device that employs the organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1, for example, an organic light-emitting device, has excellent luminous efficiency, color coordinates, and the effect of lowering the driving voltage.

[0050] For example, the energy levels of HOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital), LUMO (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital), singlet (S1), and triplet (T1) related to Compounds 1 to 12 and 49, and Compounds A and B were evaluated using the DFT (density functional theory) method (B3LYP, 6-31G(d,p)) of the Gaussian program to optimize the structure at the level. The results are as shown in Table 1 below.

Table 1

[0051] From Table 1, it can be confirmed that the organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 has a high T1 energy level and suitable electrical properties for use as a light-emitting layer material in an electronic device, for example, an organic light-emitting device.

[0052] The synthesis method of the organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 can be recognized by those skilled in the art with reference to the synthesis examples described later. Therefore, the organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 is suitable for use as an organic layer of an organic light-emitting device, for example, a light-emitting layer material. From another aspect, it provides an organic light-emitting device including a first electrode, a second electrode, and an organic layer interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode and including a light-emitting layer, and the organic layer contains at least one or more of the organometallic compounds represented by Chemical Formula 1. The organic light-emitting device can have a low driving voltage, high efficiency, high power, high quantum efficiency, long lifespan, low roll-off ratio, and excellent color purity by including an organic layer containing the organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 as described above.

[0053] For example, in an organic light-emitting device, the first electrode is an anode, the second electrode is a cathode, the organic layer further includes a hole transport region interposed between the first electrode and the light-emitting layer, and an electron transport region interposed between the light-emitting layer and the second electrode. The hole transport region includes a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, or any combination thereof. The electron transport region may include a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, or any combination thereof.

[0054] In another embodiment, the organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 is also included in the light-emitting layer. The organometallic compound included in the light-emitting layer serves as an emitter. For example, the light-emitting layer containing the organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 emits phosphorescence generated while triplet excitons of the organometallic compound transition to the ground state. According to one embodiment, the light-emitting layer containing the organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 may further include a host. The host is selected from any host, and for a detailed description of the host, refer to what is described in this specification. The content of the host in the light-emitting layer is more than the content of the organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1.

[0055] According to another embodiment, the light-emitting layer includes a host and a dopant. The host is selected from any host, and the dopant may include the organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1. The light-emitting layer emits phosphorescence generated while triplet excitons of the organometallic compound serving as a dopant transition to the ground state. According to one embodiment, the light-emitting layer can emit blue light with a maximum emission wavelength of 430 nm to 480 nm.

[0056] In this specification, “(the organic layer) contains one or more organometallic compounds” is also interpreted as “(the organic layer) may contain one kind of organometallic compound belonging to the category of Chemical Formula 1, or two or more different kinds of organometallic compounds belonging to the category of Chemical Formula 1”. For example, the organic layer may contain only Compound 1 as the organometallic compound. At this time, Compound 1 is present in the light-emitting layer of the organic light-emitting device. Alternatively, the organic layer may contain Compound 1 and Compound 2 as the organometallic compounds. At this time, Compound 1 and Compound 2 are present in the same layer (for example, both Compound 1 and Compound 2 are present in the light-emitting layer). In this specification, “organic layer” is a term indicating a single and / or multiple layers interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode in an organic light-emitting device. The “organic layer” may include not only organic compounds but also organometallic complexes containing metals.

[0057] FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing a schematic configuration of an organic light-emitting device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 1, the structure and manufacturing method of an organic light-emitting device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described as follows. The organic light-emitting device 10 has a structure in which a first electrode 11, an organic layer 15, and a second electrode 19 are sequentially stacked.

[0058] A substrate may be additionally disposed below the first electrode 11 or above the second electrode 19. As the substrate, a substrate generally used for organic light-emitting devices can be used, but a glass substrate or a transparent plastic substrate excellent in mechanical strength, thermal stability, transparency, surface smoothness, ease of handling, and waterproofness can be used.

[0059] The first electrode 11 is formed, for example, by providing a first electrode material on top of a substrate using a vapor deposition method or a sputtering method or the like. The first electrode 11 is also an anode. The first electrode material is selected from among materials having a high work function so that hole injection is easy. The first electrode 11 is also a reflective electrode, a semi-transmissive electrode, or a transmissive electrode. As the first electrode material, indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), tin oxide (SnO2), zinc oxide (ZnO), or the like can be used. Or, metals such as magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), aluminum-lithium (Al-Li), calcium (Ca), magnesium-indium (Mg-In), and magnesium-silver (Mg-Ag) can be used. The first electrode 11 can have a single-layer structure or a multilayer structure including two or more layers. For example, the first electrode 11 can have a three-layer structure of ITO / Ag / ITO, but is not limited thereto.

[0060] An organic layer 15 is disposed on top of the first electrode 11. The organic layer 15 may include a hole transport region, a light-emitting layer, and an electron transport region. The hole transport region is disposed between the first electrode 11 and the light-emitting layer. The hole transport region may include a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, a buffer layer, or any combination thereof. The hole transport region may include only a hole injection layer or only a hole transport layer. Or, the hole transport region can have a structure of a hole injection layer / hole transport layer or a hole injection layer / hole transport layer / electron blocking layer sequentially stacked from the first electrode 11.

[0061] When the hole transport region includes a hole injection layer, the hole injection layer can be formed on top of the first electrode 11 using various methods such as vacuum evaporation, spin coating, casting, and the LB (Langmuir-Blodgett) method. When forming the hole injection layer by vacuum evaporation, the evaporation conditions vary depending on the compound used as the hole injection layer material, the structure and thermal properties of the intended hole injection layer, etc. For example, the evaporation temperature is about 100 to about 500 °C, the degree of vacuum is about 10 -8 ~ about 10-3 torr, and the evaporation rate is selected from the range of about 0.01 to about 100 Å / sec, but is not limited thereto.

[0062] When forming the hole injection layer by spin coating, the coating conditions vary depending on the compound used as the hole injection layer material, the structure and thermal properties of the intended hole injection layer. The coating speed is about 2,000 rpm to about 5,000 rpm, and the heat treatment temperature for solvent removal after coating is selected from the range of about 80 °C to 200 °C, but is not limited thereto. The formation conditions of the hole transport layer and the electron blocking layer refer to the hole injection layer formation conditions.

[0106] <<Evaluation Example 1: Evaluation of Maximum Emission Wavelength, Chromaticity Coordinates and Full Width at Half Maximum (FWHM)>> Compound 1 was diluted to a concentration of 10 mM in toluene, and then using an ISC PC1 spectrofluorometer equipped with a xenon lamp, the PL (photoluminecscence) spectrum was measured at room temperature, from which the maximum emission wavelength, color coordinates, and full width at half maximum of Compound 1 were evaluated. This was repeated for Compound 49 and Compound A, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0107] <<Evaluation Example 2: Decay Time Measurement>> On a quartz substrate, Compound 1 was vacuum co-evaporated with the host used in the examples at a weight ratio of 2 wt% under a vacuum of 10-7 torr to produce a film with a thickness of 40 nm. For each film, using a FluoTime 300, a TRPL measurement instrument from PicoQuant, and a PLS340, a pumping source from PicoQuant (excitation wavelength = 340 nm, spectral width = 20 nm), after evaluating the PL spectrum at room temperature, the main peak wavelength of the spectrum was determined, and by the photon pulse (pulse width = 500 ps) applied by the PLS340 to each film, the number of photons emitted at the wavelength of the main peak from each film was repeatedly measured over time based on TCSPC (time-correlated single photon counting) to obtain a TRPL curve for which fitting was sufficiently possible. One or more exponential decay functions were fitted to the results obtained therefrom, and for each film, each T decay (Ex), that is, the decay time was determined, and the results are described in Table 2 respectively.

[0108] The function used for fitting is as shown in Equation 1 below, and the average value of T obtained from each exponential decay function used for fitting was taken as T decay of decay (Ex). At this time, between the measurement time for obtaining the TRPL curve and the same measurement time, the same measurement was repeated one more time in the dark state (a state where the pumping signal incident on a predetermined film was blocked) to obtain a baseline or background signal curve, which was used as the baseline for fitting. This was repeated for Compound 49 and Compound A, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0109] <<Evaluation Example 3: Evaluation of Luminescence Quantum Efficiency (PLQY)>> After mixing a CH2Cl2 solution of PMMA, 5 wt% of CBP, and Compound 1, the resulting product was coated on a quartz substrate using a spin coater, heat-treated in an oven at 80 °C, and then cooled to room temperature to produce a film. The luminescence quantum yields in the film were evaluated for Compound 1 using a Hamamatsu Photonics absolute PL quantum yield measurement system equipped with a xenon light source, a monochromator, a photonic multichannel analyzer, and an integrating sphere, and adopting PLQY measurement software (Hamamatsu Photonics Co., Ltd., Shizuoka). This was repeated for Compound 49 and Compound A, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0111] <Example 1> The ITO glass substrate was cut into a size of 50 mm × 50 mm × 0.5 mm, ultrasonically cleaned in acetone, isopropyl alcohol, and pure water for 15 minutes each, and then UV ozone cleaned for 30 minutes. Next, m-MTDATA was deposited on the ITO electrode (anode) on the glass substrate at a deposition rate of 1 Å / sec to form a 600 Å thick hole injection layer. On the hole injection layer, α-NPD was deposited at a deposition rate of 1 Å / sec to form a 250 Å thick hole transport layer. On the hole transport layer, Compound 1 (dopant) and CBP (host) were co-deposited at deposition rates of 0.1 Å / sec and 1 Å / sec, respectively, to form a 400 Å thick light-emitting layer.

[0112] On the light-emitting layer, BAlq was deposited at a deposition rate of 1 Å / sec to form a 50 Å thick hole blocking layer. On the hole blocking layer, Alq3 was deposited to form a 300 Å thick electron transport layer. Then, LiF was deposited on the upper part of the electron transport layer to form a 10 Å thick electron injection layer. After that, Al was vacuum deposited on the electron injection layer to form a 1,200 Å thick second electrode (cathode), thereby fabricating an organic light-emitting device having the structure of ITO / m-MTDATA(600 Å) / α-NPD(250 Å) / CBP + Compound 1(10%)(400 Å) / BAlq(50 Å) / Alq3(300 Å) / LiF(10 Å) / Al(1,200 Å).

[0113] <Example 2, and Comparative Examples 1 and 2> An organic light-emitting device was fabricated using the same method as in Example 1, except that the compounds described in Table 3 were used as dopants instead of Compound 1 when forming the light-emitting layer.

[0114] <<Evaluation Example 4: Characteristics Evaluation of Organic Light-Emitting Devices>> For each of the organic light-emitting devices fabricated in Examples 1 and 2 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2, the EL spectrum, driving voltage, and external quantum emission efficiency were evaluated. The specific evaluation methods are as follows, and the results are as shown in Table 3 below. The driving voltages and external quantum efficiencies in Table 3 are shown as relative values (%) compared to the driving voltage and external quantum efficiency of the organic light-emitting device of Comparative Example D.

[0115] (1) Measurement of the change in current density due to voltage change For the fabricated organic light-emitting device, while increasing the voltage from 0 V to 10 V, a current / voltage meter (Keithley 2400) was used to measure the current value flowing through the unit device, and the measured current value was divided by the area to obtain the result. (2) Measurement of the change in luminance due to voltage change For the fabricated organic light-emitting device, while increasing the voltage from 0 V to 10 V, a luminance meter (Minolta Cs-1000A) was used to measure the luminance at that time to obtain the result. (3) EL spectrum measurement For the fabricated organic light-emitting device, a luminance meter (Minolta Cs-1000A) was used, and after measuring the EL spectrum when the luminance was 500 cd / m 2 the maximum emission wavelength was evaluated. (4) External quantum efficiency measurement It was evaluated using a current / voltage meter (Keithley 2400) and a luminance meter (Minolta Cs-1000A).
