Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present specification relates to a heterocyclic compound and an organic light-emitting device containing the same.

[0002] This specification claims the benefit of the filing date of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2020-0042138, filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office on April 7, 2020, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. [Background technology]

[0003] Electroluminescent devices are a type of self-luminous display device, and have the advantages of a wide viewing angle, excellent contrast, and fast response speed.

[0004] An organic light-emitting device has a structure in which an organic thin film is disposed between two electrodes. When a voltage is applied to an organic light-emitting device with this structure, electrons and holes injected from the two electrodes combine in the organic thin film to form pairs and then disappear, emitting light. The organic thin film can be configured as a single layer or multiple layers as needed.

[0005] The organic thin film material may have a light-emitting function as needed. For example, the organic thin film material may be a compound that can form an emitting layer by itself, or a compound that can function as a host or dopant in a host-dopant emitting layer. In addition, the organic thin film material may be a compound that can perform functions such as hole injection, hole transport, electron blocking, hole blocking, electron transport, and electron injection.

[0006] In order to improve the performance, lifetime or efficiency of organic light-emitting devices, there is a constant demand for development of materials for organic thin films.

[0007] There is a need to research organic light-emitting devices that contain compounds with chemical structures that can fulfill the requirements for materials that can be used in organic light-emitting devices, such as appropriate energy levels, electrochemical stability, thermal stability, etc., and that can perform various roles required for organic light-emitting devices depending on the substituents.

[0037] In this specification, "when no substituent is shown in the chemical formula or compound structure" means that a hydrogen atom is bonded to a carbon atom. However, deuterium ( 2 H, Deuterium) is an isotope of hydrogen, so some hydrogen atoms may be deuterium.

[0038] In one embodiment of the present application, "when no substituent is shown in the chemical formula or compound structure," may mean that all positions where a substituent can be placed are hydrogen or deuterium. That is, in the case of deuterium, it is an isotope of hydrogen, and some hydrogen atoms may be deuterium, which is an isotope, and in this case, the deuterium content may be 0% to 100%.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present application, when "substituents are not shown in a chemical formula or compound structure," if deuterium is not explicitly excluded, such as when the deuterium content is 0%, the hydrogen content is 100%, or the substituents are all hydrogen, hydrogen and deuterium may be used together in the compound.

[0041] In one embodiment of the present application, isotopes refer to atoms with the same atomic number (Z) but different mass numbers (A). Isotopes can also be interpreted as elements with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.

[0042] In one embodiment of the present application, the content T% of a specific substituent can be defined as T2 / T1×100=T%, where T1 is the total number of substituents that the base compound may have and T2 is the number of specific substituents among them.

[0043] That is, in one example: [ka] The deuterium content of 20% in a phenyl group represented by the formula (I) means that the total number of substituents that the phenyl group can have is 5 (T1 in the formula), and the number of deuterium atoms among them is 1 (T2 in the formula), so it can be expressed as 20%. In other words, a deuterium content of 20% in a phenyl group can be expressed by the following structural formula: [ka]

[0044] In addition, in one embodiment of the present application, a "phenyl group with a deuterium content of 0%" may refer to a phenyl group that does not contain a deuterium atom, that is, a phenyl group that has 5 hydrogen atoms.

[0129] Furthermore, by introducing various substituents into the structure of Chemical Formula 1, it is possible to synthesize compounds having the inherent properties of the introduced substituents.

[0139] The organic light-emitting device of the present invention may be manufactured by a conventional method and material for manufacturing an organic light-emitting device, except that one or more organic material layers are formed using the heterocyclic compound described above.

[0140] The heterocyclic compound may be formed on the organic layer by a solution coating method, such as a vacuum deposition method, during the manufacture of the organic light emitting device, including, but not limited to, spin coating, dip coating, inkjet printing, screen printing, spraying, and roll coating.

[0141] The organic material layer of the organic light-emitting device of the present invention may have a single-layer structure, or may have a multi-layer structure in which two or more organic material layers are stacked. For example, the organic light-emitting device of the present invention may have a structure including a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a light-emitting layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, etc. as organic material layers. However, the structure of the organic light-emitting device is not limited thereto, and the device may include a fewer number of organic material layers.

[0142] In the organic light-emitting device of the present invention, the organic material layer may include a light-emitting layer, and the light-emitting layer may include the heterocyclic compound.

[0143] In another organic light-emitting device, the organic material layer may include a light-emitting layer, the light-emitting layer may include a host material, and the host material may include the heterocyclic compound.

[0144] As another example, the organic layer containing the heterocyclic compound may contain the heterocyclic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 as a host and be used together with an iridium-based dopant.

[0145] In the organic light-emitting device of the present invention, the organic layer may include an electron injection layer or an electron transport layer, and the electron injection layer or the electron transport layer may include the heterocyclic compound.

[0146] In the organic light-emitting device of the present invention, the organic layer may include a hole transport layer, and the hole transport layer may include the heterocyclic compound.

[0148] In another organic light-emitting device, the organic material layer may include an electron blocking layer or a hole blocking layer, and the electron blocking layer or the hole blocking layer may include the heterocyclic compound.

[0149] The organic light-emitting device of the present invention may further include one or more layers selected from the group consisting of a light-emitting layer, a hole-injection layer, a hole-transport layer, an electron-injection layer, an electron-transport layer, an electron-blocking layer, and a hole-blocking layer.

[0150] 1 to 3 illustrate examples of the stacking order of electrodes and organic layers of an organic light-emitting device according to an embodiment of the present application. However, these figures are not intended to limit the scope of the present application, and structures of organic light-emitting devices known in the art can also be applied to the present application.

[0151] 1 shows an organic light emitting device in which an anode 200, an organic material layer 300, and a cathode 400 are sequentially stacked on a substrate 100. However, the present invention is not limited to this structure, and an organic light emitting device in which a cathode, an organic material layer, and an anode are sequentially stacked on a substrate, as shown in FIG.

[0152] Fig. 3 illustrates an example in which the organic material layer is multilayered. The organic light-emitting device in Fig. 3 includes a hole injection layer 301, a hole transport layer 302, an emitting layer 303, a hole blocking layer 304, an electron transport layer 305, and an electron injection layer 306. However, the scope of the present application is not limited to such a stacked structure. If necessary, the remaining layers except for the emitting layer may be omitted, or other necessary functional layers may be further added.

[0153] The organic layer containing the heterocyclic compound of Formula 1 may further contain other materials as needed.

[0154] In one embodiment of the present application, the organic layer containing the heterocyclic compound of Chemical Formula 1 may be included together with a triazine-based compound, a 1,2,4-triazole-based compound, or a biscarbazole-based compound.

[0155] When the organic material layer of the organic light emitting device contains the heterocyclic compound of Formula 1 and a triazine-based compound, a 1,2,4-triazole-based compound, or a biscarbazole-based compound, the organic material layer exhibits better efficiency and lifespan. This result suggests that an exciplex phenomenon occurs when the two compounds are contained simultaneously.

[0156] The exciplex phenomenon is a phenomenon in which electron exchange between two molecules releases energy at the HOMO level of the donor (p-host) and the LUMO level of the acceptor (n-host). When the exciplex phenomenon between two molecules occurs, reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) occurs, which can increase the internal quantum efficiency of fluorescence to 100%. When a donor (p-host) with good hole transporting ability and an acceptor (n-host) with good electron transporting ability are used as the host in the emitting layer, holes are injected into the p-host and electrons are injected into the n-host, which reduces the driving voltage and helps improve lifetime.

[0157] In one embodiment of the present application, the triazine-based compound may be represented by the following chemical formula X: [ka]

[0158] In the above chemical formula X, Rx1 to Rx3 are the same or different and may each independently be hydrogen; a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C60 aryl group; or a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C60 heteroaryl group.

[0159] In one embodiment of the present application, the 1,2,4-triazole compound may be represented by the following chemical formula Y: [ka]

[0161] In the organic light-emitting device according to one embodiment of the present application, materials other than the heterocyclic compound of Chemical Formula 1 are exemplified below. However, these are for illustrative purposes only and do not limit the scope of the present application. They may be replaced with materials known in the art.

[0162] The anode material may be a material with a relatively large work function, such as a transparent conductive oxide, a metal, or a conductive polymer. Specific examples of the anode material include, but are not limited to, metals such as vanadium, chromium, copper, zinc, and gold, or alloys thereof; metal oxides such as zinc oxide, indium oxide, indium tin oxide (ITO), and indium zinc oxide (IZO); combinations of metals and oxides such as ZnO:Al or SnO:Sb; and conductive polymers such as poly(3-methylthiophene), poly[3,4-(ethylene-1,2-dioxy)thiophene] (PEDOT), polypyrrole, and polyaniline.

[0163] The cathode material may be a material with a relatively low work function, such as a metal, a metal oxide, or a conductive polymer. Specific examples of the cathode material include, but are not limited to, metals such as magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium, titanium, indium, yttrium, lithium, gadolinium, aluminum, silver, tin, and lead, or alloys thereof; and multilayer structures such as LiF / Al or LiO2 / Al.

[0164] As the hole injection material, known hole injection materials can be used, for example, phthalocyanine compounds such as copper phthalocyanine disclosed in U.S. Pat.

[0193] [Table 4] TIFF0007766350000084.tif241164

[0194] <Experimental Example 1> -Fabrication of organic light-emitting devices (1) Fabrication of organic light-emitting devices (Comparative Example 1) A glass substrate coated with a 1500Å thick ITO film was ultrasonically cleaned with distilled water. After the distilled water cleaning, it was ultrasonically cleaned with solvents such as acetone, methanol, and isopropyl alcohol, dried, and then treated with UVO in a UV cleaner for 5 minutes. The substrate was then transferred to a plasma cleaner (PT) and plasma treated in a vacuum to remove the ITO work function and residual film, before being transferred to thermal evaporation equipment for organic deposition. [ka]

[0195] Next, the vacuum in the chamber was reduced to 10 -6 After evacuating the chamber to 1000 torr, a current was applied to the cell to evaporate 2-TNATA, depositing a 600 Å-thick hole-injection layer on the ITO substrate. N,N'-bis(α-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-4,4'-diamine (NPB) was placed in another cell in the vacuum evaporation system, and a current was applied to the cell to evaporate it, depositing a 300 Å-thick hole-transport layer on the hole-injection layer. [ka]

[0196] An emitting layer was then formed on the substrate by thermal vacuum deposition as follows: The emitting layer consisted of a 400 Å thick host compound, 9-[4-(4,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)phenyl]-9'-phenyl-3,3'-Bi-9H-carbazole, and a 7% doped green phosphorescent dopant, Ir(ppy)3. Next, a 60 Å thick hole-blocking layer, BCP, was deposited, followed by a 200 Å thick electron-transporting layer, Alq3. Finally, lithium fluoride (LiF) was deposited on the electron-transporting layer to a thickness of 10 Å to form an electron-injecting layer. An aluminum (Al) cathode was then deposited on the electron-injecting layer to a thickness of 1200 Å to form the cathode, completing the fabrication of an organic electroluminescent device.

[0197] On the other hand, all the organic compounds required for manufacturing OLED elements are 10 -6 ~10 -8 It was purified by vacuum sublimation under torr and used for OLED fabrication.

[0198] (Comparative Examples 2 to 4 and Examples 1 to 23) An organic electroluminescent device was prepared in the same manner as in Comparative Example 1, except that the compound shown in Table 5 below was used instead of the compound NPB used in forming the hole transport layer in Comparative Example 1.

[0199] At this time, the hole transport compounds of the comparative examples excluding NPB are as follows: [ka]

[0200] (2) Driving voltage and luminous efficiency of organic light-emitting devices The electroluminescence (EL) characteristics of the organic electroluminescent device fabricated as described above were measured using a Mac Science M7000. Based on the measurement results, a reference luminance of 6,000 cd / m was measured using a lifespan measurement device (M6000) manufactured by Mac Science. 2 When T 95 was measured.

[0201] The characteristics of the organic electroluminescent device of the present invention are as shown in Table 5 below.

[0202] [Table 5] TIFF0007766350000089.tif37168

[0203] It was found that the devices of Examples 1 to 23 according to an embodiment of the present invention had lower driving voltages and better efficiency and life spans than the devices of Comparative Examples 1 to 4.

[0204] <Experimental Example 2> -Fabrication of organic light-emitting devices (Comparative Example 5) A transparent electrode ITO thin film obtained from OLED glass (Samsung Corning) was ultrasonically cleaned using trichloroethylene, acetone, ethanol, and distilled water, respectively, for 5 minutes each, and then stored in isopropanol before use. Next, the ITO substrate was placed in a substrate holder in a vacuum deposition system, and 4,4',4''-tris(N,N-(2-naphthyl)-phenylamino)triphenylamine (4,4',4''-tris(N,N-(2-naphthyl)-phenylamino)triphenylamine (2-TNATA) was placed in a cell inside the vacuum deposition system. [ka]

[0205] Then, the vacuum in the chamber was reduced to 10 -6After evacuating the chamber to torr, a current was applied to the cell to evaporate 2-TNATA, depositing a 600 Å-thick hole injection layer on the ITO substrate. N,N'-bis(α-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-4,4'-diamine (NPB) was placed in another cell in the vacuum deposition system, and a current was applied to the cell to evaporate it, forming a 150 Å-thick hole transport layer on the hole injection layer. Compound M1 was then deposited on top of the hole transport layer to form a 50 Å-thick electron blocking layer. [ka]

[0206] After forming the hole injection layer, hole transport layer, and electron blocking layer in this way, a blue light-emitting material with the following structure was vapor-deposited on top of them as an emitting layer: Specifically, a blue light-emitting host material H1 was vacuum-deposited to a thickness of 200 Å in one cell of a vacuum deposition apparatus, and a blue light-emitting dopant material D1 was vacuum-deposited on top of that at a concentration of 5% relative to the host material. [ka]

[0207] Next, a compound represented by the following structural chemical formula E1 was vapor-deposited to a thickness of 300 Å as an electron transport layer. [ka]

[0208] An OLED device was fabricated by depositing lithium fluoride (LiF) to a thickness of 10 Å as an electron injection layer and forming an Al cathode to a thickness of 1,000 Å.

[0209] On the other hand, all organic compounds required for manufacturing OLED elements are 10 -6 ~10 -8 It was purified by vacuum sublimation under torr and used for OLED fabrication.

[0210] (Comparative Examples 6 to 8 and Examples 24 to 63) An organic electroluminescent device was fabricated in the same manner as in Comparative Example 5, except that the compound shown in Table 6 below was used instead of Compound M1 in Comparative Example 5. The driving voltage, luminous efficiency, and lifetime of the blue organic electroluminescent device fabricated according to the present invention were measured, and the results are shown in Table 6 below.

[0211] In this case, the compounds in the electron blocking layer of the comparative example are as follows. [ka]

[0212] [Table 6] TIFF0007766350000096.tif156166

[0213] It was found that the devices of Examples 24 to 63 according to an embodiment of the present invention had lower driving voltages and better efficiency and lifespans than the devices of Comparative Examples 5 to 8. In particular, M3 used in Comparative Example 7 has crystalline characteristics due to its symmetric structure, and materials with such characteristics tend to form non-uniform deposited films during deposition, resulting in reduced charge transport capacity. These problems lead to higher driving voltages and reduced efficiency.

[0214] Furthermore, it was confirmed that M4 used in Comparative Example 8 had a deep HOMO energy level, which made hole transport difficult, resulting in a high driving voltage and a low efficiency.

[0215] <Experimental Example 3> 1) Fabrication of organic light-emitting devices (Examples 64 to 88 and Comparative Examples 9 to 14) A glass substrate coated with a 1,500 Å thick indium tin oxide (ITO) thin film was ultrasonically cleaned in distilled water. After the distilled water cleaning, it was ultrasonically cleaned with solvents such as acetone, methanol, and isopropyl alcohol, dried, and then treated with UVO in a UV cleaner for 5 minutes. The substrate was then transferred to a plasma cleaner (PT) and plasma treated in a vacuum to remove the ITO work function and residual film, before being transferred to thermal evaporation equipment for organic deposition.

[0216] A common layer, a hole injection layer 2-TNATA (4,4',4''-Tris[2-naphthyl(phenyl)amino]triphenylamine) and a hole transport layer NPB (N,N'-diphenyl-(1,1'-biphenyl)-4,4'-diamine), were formed on the ITO transparent electrode (anode).

[0217] An emitting layer was then formed thereon by thermal vacuum deposition as follows: The emitting layer was formed using either a single host compound listed in Table 7 below, or a first host compound (n-type host) with good electron transporting ability and a second host compound (p-type host) with good hole transporting ability, by depositing two host compounds from a single source. The host was doped with (piq)2(Ir)(acac) as a red phosphorescent dopant at 3% by weight of the host material, or with Ir(ppy)3 as a green phosphorescent dopant at 7% by weight of the host material. The resulting layer was deposited to a thickness of 500 Å.

[0218] Thereafter, BCP was vapor-deposited to a thickness of 60 Å as a hole-blocking layer, and Alq3 was vapor-deposited thereon to a thickness of 200 Å as an electron-transporting layer.

[0219] In this case, when two hosts were used, the compounds used as the n-host were as follows: [ka]

[0220] Finally, lithium fluoride (LiF) was deposited on the electron transport layer to a thickness of 10 Å to form an electron injection layer, and then an aluminum (Al) cathode was deposited on the electron injection layer to a thickness of 1,200 Å to form a cathode, thereby completing the manufacture of an organic light emitting device.

[0221] Specifically, the compounds used as hosts in Examples 64 to 88 and Comparative Examples 9 to 14 are as shown in Table 7 below.

[0222] At this time, the compounds M1 to M3 used as hosts in Comparative Examples 9 to 14 in Table 7 below are as follows. [ka]

[0223] Meanwhile, all organic compounds required for manufacturing organic light-emitting devices are 10 -6 ~10 -8 The product was purified by vacuum sublimation under torr and used for the production of organic light-emitting devices.

[0224] 2) Driving voltage and luminous efficiency of organic light-emitting devices The electroluminescence (EL) characteristics of the organic electroluminescent device fabricated as described above were measured using a Mac Science M7000. Based on the measurement results, a reference luminance of 6,000 cd / m was measured using a lifespan measurement device (M6000) manufactured by Mac Science. 2 When T 95 The driving voltage, luminous efficiency, luminous color, and lifespan of the organic light-emitting device manufactured according to the present invention were measured, and the results are shown in Table 7 below.

[0225] [Table 7] TIFF0007766350000100.tif55166

[0226] As can be seen from Table 7, the organic light-emitting devices of Examples 64 to 73, in which an emission layer was formed using a compound according to the present application as a single host material, had superior luminous efficiency and lifetime to the organic light-emitting devices of Comparative Examples 9, 11, and 13, in which an emission layer was formed using a single host material but not a compound according to the present application as a single host material. Furthermore, as can be seen from Table 7, the organic light-emitting devices of Examples 74 to 88, in which an emission layer was formed using a first host material corresponding to an n-host and a compound according to the present application simultaneously with a second host material corresponding to a p-host, had superior luminous efficiency and lifetime to the organic light-emitting devices of Comparative Examples 10, 12, and 14, in which an emission layer was formed using a first host material corresponding to an n-host and a compound other than a compound according to the present application simultaneously with a second host material corresponding to a p-host.

[0227] In addition, it was confirmed that the luminous efficiency and lifetime of the organic light-emitting devices of Examples 64 to 73, in which the light-emitting layer was formed using a compound according to the present application as a single host material, were similar to or even superior to those of the organic light-emitting devices of Comparative Examples 10, 12, and 14, in which the light-emitting layer was formed using a first host material corresponding to an n-host and a compound other than the compound according to the present application as a second host material corresponding to a p-host.

[0228] Considering that, in general, an organic light-emitting device using an n-host (n-type host) with good electron transporting ability as the first host and a p-host (p-type host) with good hole transporting ability as the second host is superior in luminous efficiency and lifetime to an organic light-emitting device using a single host material, this means that the luminous efficiency and lifetime of the organic light-emitting device can be significantly improved when the compound according to the present application is used as a host material.

[0229] This is believed to be because, when the compound according to the present application is used as a host material, holes and electrons can be efficiently injected from each charge transfer layer into the light-emitting layer, and this is also believed to be due to the influence of the orientation and space size formed by the interaction of materials during deposition, as described above.

[0230] This is because the efficient injection of holes and electrons into the light-emitting layer is also affected by the orientation and space size formed by the interaction of materials during vapor deposition, and it is considered that this effect is caused by the differences in the orientation properties and space size of the compound of the present application and the compounds M1 to M3, as described above.

[0231] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and can be manufactured in various forms, and a person skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains will understand that the present invention can be embodied in other specific forms without changing the technical idea or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, the above-described embodiments should be understood to be illustrative in all respects and not restrictive. [Explanation of symbols]
