Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a compound having good light-emitting properties, and also to a light-emitting material and an organic light-emitting device using the compound. [Background technology]

[0002] Organic light-emitting devices are light-emitting devices that use organic materials, can be manufactured by coating, and do not use rare elements, which has attracted attention in recent years. Organic electroluminescent devices (organic EL devices) in particular have the advantage of being lightweight and flexible because they emit light by themselves and do not require a backlight. They also have the characteristics of fast response and high visibility, and are expected to become next-generation light sources. For this reason, active research is being conducted into the development of materials useful for organic light-emitting devices, including organic electroluminescent devices. Research on light-emitting materials is particularly active (e.g., Non-Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Non-patent literature]

Hammett and quantifies the influence of a substituent on the reaction rate or equilibrium of a para-substituted benzene derivative. Specifically, the following equation holds between the substituent in a para-substituted benzene derivative and the reaction rate constant or equilibrium constant: log(k / k0) = ρσp or log(K / K0) = ρσp where k is the rate constant for the benzene derivative without a substituent, k is the rate constant for the benzene derivative substituted with a substituent, K is the equilibrium constant for the benzene derivative without a substituent, K is the equilibrium constant for the benzene derivative substituted with a substituent, and ρ is a reaction constant determined by the type and conditions of the reaction. For an explanation of the "Hammett σp value" in this invention and the numerical values ​​of each substituent, please refer to the description of σp values ​​in Hansch, C. et al., Chem. Rev., 91, 165-195 (1991). Groups with a negative Hammett σp value tend to exhibit electron-donating (donor) properties, while groups with a positive Hammett σp value tend to exhibit electron-withdrawing (acceptor) properties.

In some embodiments, the combination of OLEDs is a three-color combination (e.g., RGB). In some embodiments, the combination of OLEDs is a combination of colors that are not red, green, or blue (e.g., orange and yellow-green). In some embodiments, the combination of OLEDs is a two-color, four-color, or more-color combination. In some embodiments, the device comprises: a circuit board having a first side with a mounting surface and an opposite second side, the circuit board defining at least one opening; at least one OLED on the mounting surface, the at least one OLED having a light-emitting configuration including an anode, a cathode, and at least one organic layer including a light-emitting layer between the anode and the cathode; a housing for the circuit board; and at least one connector disposed on an end of the housing, the housing and the connector defining a package suitable for attachment to a lighting fixture. In some embodiments, the OLED light comprises multiple OLEDs mounted on a circuit board such that light is emitted in multiple directions. In some embodiments, some of the light emitted in a first direction is polarized and emitted in a second direction. In some embodiments, a reflector is used to polarize the light emitted in the first direction.

[0085] Display or Screen: In some embodiments, the light-emitting layer of the present invention can be used in a screen or display. In some embodiments, the compounds of the present invention are deposited onto a substrate using processes such as, but not limited to, vacuum evaporation, deposition, vapor deposition, or chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In some embodiments, the substrate is a photoplate structure useful for two-sided etching to provide pixels with unique aspect ratios. The screen (also called a mask) is used in the manufacturing process of OLED displays. The corresponding artwork pattern design allows for the placement of very steep, narrow tie bars between pixels in the vertical direction and large, wide, beveled openings in the horizontal direction. This allows for the fine patterning of pixels required for high-resolution displays while optimizing chemical vapor deposition onto the TFT backplane. Internal pixel patterning allows for the construction of three-dimensional pixel openings with various aspect ratios in the horizontal and vertical directions. Furthermore, the use of imaged "stripes" or halftone circles within the pixel area protects etching in specific regions until these specific patterns are undercut and removed from the substrate. At that point, all pixel areas are subjected to similar etch rates, but the depth varies depending on the halftone pattern. Varying the size and spacing of the halftone patterns allows for etching with varying degrees of protection within the pixel, enabling the deep, localized etching required to create steep vertical bevels. The preferred material for the deposition mask is Invar, a metal alloy that is cold-rolled into long, thin sheets at steel mills. Invar cannot be electrodeposited onto the spin mandrel as a nickel mask. A suitable, low-cost method for forming open areas in the deposition mask is by wet chemical etching. In some embodiments, the screen or display pattern is a pixel matrix on a substrate. In some embodiments, the screen or display pattern is fabricated using lithography (e.g., photolithography and e-beam lithography). In some embodiments, the screen or display pattern is fabricated using wet chemical etching. In further embodiments, the screen or display pattern is fabricated using plasma etching.

[0086] Device manufacturing method: OLED displays are generally manufactured by forming a large mother panel and then cutting the mother panel into cell panels. Typically, each cell panel on the mother panel is formed by forming a thin film transistor (TFT) having an active layer and source / drain electrodes on a base substrate, applying a planarizing film to the TFT, sequentially forming a pixel electrode, an emissive layer, a counter electrode, and an encapsulation layer, and then cutting the mother panel. OLED displays are generally manufactured by forming a large mother panel and then cutting the mother panel into cell panels. Typically, each cell panel on the mother panel is formed by forming a thin film transistor (TFT) having an active layer and source / drain electrodes on a base substrate, applying a planarizing film to the TFT, sequentially forming a pixel electrode, an emissive layer, a counter electrode, and an encapsulation layer, and then cutting the mother panel.

[0087] In another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for manufacturing an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display, the method comprising: forming a barrier layer on a base substrate of the mother panel; forming a plurality of display units on the barrier layer in cell panel units; forming an encapsulation layer over each of the display units of the cell panel; and applying an organic film to the interface between the cell panels. In some embodiments, the barrier layer is an inorganic film, for example, made of SiNx, and the edges of the barrier layer are covered with an organic film made of polyimide or acrylic. In some embodiments, the organic film helps the mother panel to be softly cut into individual cell panels. In some embodiments, the thin film transistor (TFT) layer includes a light-emitting layer, a gate electrode, and source / drain electrodes. Each of the plurality of display units may include a thin film transistor (TFT) layer, a planarization film formed on the TFT layer, and a light-emitting unit formed on the planarization film, and the organic film applied to the interface is formed of the same material as the planarization film and is formed simultaneously with the planarization film. In some embodiments, the light-emitting unit is connected to the TFT layer by a passivation layer, the planarization film therebetween, and an encapsulation layer that covers and protects the light-emitting unit. In some embodiments of the manufacturing method, the organic film is not connected to either the display unit or the encapsulation layer.

[0088] Each of the organic film and the planarization film may comprise one of polyimide and acrylic. In some embodiments, the barrier layer may be an inorganic film. In some embodiments, the base substrate may be formed of polyimide. The method may further include attaching a carrier substrate formed of a glass material to one surface of the base substrate formed of polyimide before forming the barrier layer on the other surface of the base substrate, and separating the carrier substrate from the base substrate before cutting along the interface. In some embodiments, the OLED display is a flexible display. In some embodiments, the passivation layer is an organic film disposed on the TFT layer to cover the TFT layer. In some embodiments, the planarization film is an organic film formed on the passivation layer. In some embodiments, the planarization film is formed of polyimide or acrylic, as is the organic film formed on the edge of the barrier layer. In some embodiments, the planarization film and the organic film are formed simultaneously during the manufacture of an OLED display. In some embodiments, the organic film may be formed on the edge of the barrier layer, such that a portion of the organic film directly contacts the base substrate and a remaining portion of the organic film contacts the barrier layer while surrounding the edge of the barrier layer.

[0089] In some embodiments, the light-emitting layer comprises a pixel electrode, a counter electrode, and an organic light-emitting layer disposed between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode, hi some embodiments, the pixel electrode is coupled to a source / drain electrode of the TFT layer. In some embodiments, when a voltage is applied to the pixel electrode through the TFT layer, a suitable voltage is formed between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode, which causes the organic light-emitting layer to emit light, thereby forming an image. Hereinafter, an image-forming unit having a TFT layer and a light-emitting unit is referred to as a display unit. In some embodiments, the encapsulation layer that covers the display units and prevents penetration of external moisture may be formed into a thin-film encapsulation structure in which organic films and inorganic films are alternately stacked. In some embodiments, the encapsulation layer has a thin-film encapsulation structure in which multiple thin films are stacked. In some embodiments, the organic film applied to the interface portion is disposed at an interval with each of the multiple display units. In some embodiments, the organic film is formed in such a manner that a portion of the organic film directly contacts the base substrate and the remaining portion of the organic film contacts the barrier layer while surrounding the edge of the barrier layer.

[0090] In one embodiment, the OLED display is flexible and uses a flexible base substrate formed of polyimide, hi some embodiments, the base substrate is formed on a carrier substrate formed of a glass material, and the carrier substrate is then separated. In some embodiments, a barrier layer is formed on the surface of the base substrate opposite the carrier substrate. In one embodiment, the barrier layer is patterned according to the size of each cell panel. For example, while the base substrate is formed on all surfaces of the mother panel, the barrier layer is formed according to the size of each cell panel, thereby forming grooves at the interfaces between the barrier layers of the cell panels. Each cell panel can be cut along the grooves.

[0091] In some embodiments, the manufacturing method further includes a step of cutting along the interface, in which a groove is formed in the barrier layer and at least a portion of the organic film is formed in the groove, so that the groove does not penetrate the base substrate. In some embodiments, the TFT layer of each cell panel is formed, and a passivation layer (an inorganic film) and a planarization film (an organic film) are disposed on and cover the TFT layer. At the same time as the planarization film (e.g., polyimide or acrylic) is formed, the grooves at the interface are covered with an organic film (e.g., polyimide or acrylic). This prevents cracks from occurring when each cell panel is cut along the grooves at the interface by allowing the organic film to absorb any impacts that may occur. That is, if all barrier layers were completely exposed without the organic film, the impacts would be transmitted to the barrier layers when each cell panel was cut along the grooves at the interface, thereby increasing the risk of cracks. However, in one embodiment, the grooves at the interface between the barrier layers are covered with an organic film to absorb any impacts that would otherwise be transmitted to the barrier layers, allowing each cell panel to be cut softly and preventing cracks from occurring in the barrier layers. In one embodiment, the organic film and the planarizing film covering the groove of the interface portion are spaced apart from each other. For example, if the organic film and the planarizing film are connected to each other as one layer, external moisture may penetrate into the display unit through the planarizing film and the remaining portion of the organic film, so the organic film and the planarizing film are spaced apart from each other so that the organic film is spaced apart from the display unit.

[0092] In some embodiments, the display unit is formed by forming a light-emitting unit, and an encapsulation layer is disposed on the display unit to cover the display unit. Thus, after the mother panel is completely manufactured, the carrier substrate carrying the base substrate is separated from the base substrate. In some embodiments, when a laser beam is irradiated onto the carrier substrate, the carrier substrate is separated from the base substrate due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the carrier substrate and the base substrate. In some embodiments, the mother panel is cut into individual cell panels. In some embodiments, the mother panel is cut along the interface between the cell panels using a cutter. In some embodiments, the grooves at the interface along which the mother panel is cut are covered with an organic film, which absorbs shock during cutting. In some embodiments, this can prevent cracks from occurring in the barrier layer during cutting. In some embodiments, the method reduces product rejection rates and stabilizes product quality. Another embodiment is an OLED display having a barrier layer formed on a base substrate, a display unit formed on the barrier layer, an encapsulation layer formed on the display unit, and an organic film applied to the edges of the barrier layer.
