Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present disclosure relates to organic electroluminescent compounds and organic electroluminescent devices containing the same. [Background technology]
[0002] A green-emitting TPD / Alq3 bilayer small molecule organic electroluminescent device (OLED), consisting of an emissive layer and a charge transport layer, was first developed by Tang et al. at Eastman Kodak in 1987. Since then, research on OLEDs has been rapidly commercialized.
[0003] The most important factor determining the luminous efficiency in OLEDs is the emissive material. To date, fluorescent materials have been widely used as emissive materials. However, phosphorescent emissive materials have been widely studied because they theoretically increase the luminous efficiency by four times compared to fluorescent emissive materials in terms of electroluminescence mechanism. To date, iridium(III) complexes are widely known as phosphorescent emissive materials, including bis(2-(2'-benzothienyl)-pyridinato-N,C-3')iridium(acetylacetonate) [(acac)Ir(btp)], tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium [Ir(ppy)], and bis(4,6-difluorophenylpyridinato-N,C)picolinatoiridium (Firpic) as red, green, and blue emissive materials, respectively.
[0004] In the prior art, 4,4'-N,N'-dicarbazole-biphenyl (CBP) is the most widely known phosphorescent host material. Recently, Pioneer (Japan) et al. developed high-performance OLEDs using bathocuproine (BCP) and aluminum(III) bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinato)(4-phenylphenolate) (BAlq) as host materials, which is known as a hole-blocking material.
[0005] However, while conventional materials offer good luminescence properties, they have the following drawbacks: (1) Due to low glass transition temperatures and insufficient thermal stability, these degradations can occur during high-temperature vacuum deposition processes, reducing the device lifetime. (2) The power efficiency of an OLED is given by [(π / voltage) × current efficiency], and the power efficiency is inversely proportional to the voltage. OLEDs containing phosphorescent host materials offer higher current efficiencies (cd / A) than OLEDs containing fluorescent materials, but require very high driving voltages. Therefore, they offer no advantage in terms of power efficiency (lm / W). (3) Furthermore, the operating lifetime of OLEDs is short, and improvements in luminous efficiency are still needed.
[0006] Various materials or concepts have been proposed for the organic layers of OLEDs to improve luminous efficiency, operating voltage and / or lifetime, but these have not been sufficient for practical application. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0007] The objectives of the present disclosure are, first, to provide an organic electroluminescent compound that is effective for fabricating an organic electroluminescent device having a low driving voltage and / or high luminous efficiency, and, second, to provide an organic electroluminescent device comprising the organic electroluminescent compound.

[0043] In the following, an organic electroluminescent device to which the above-mentioned organic electroluminescent compounds or organic electroluminescent materials are applied will be described.
[0044] An organic electroluminescent device according to an embodiment can include a first electrode, a second electrode, and at least one organic layer between the first electrode and the second electrode.
[0045] The compound represented by Formula 1 of the present disclosure can be included in one or more layers that constitute an organic electroluminescent device. According to one embodiment, the organic layer comprises an emitting layer that contains the organic electroluminescent compound of the present disclosure. For example, the emitting layer can comprise only the organic electroluminescent compound of the present disclosure or at least two organic electroluminescent compounds of the present disclosure, and can further comprise conventional materials that are included in organic electroluminescent materials.
[0046] In addition to the light-emitting layer, the organic layer may further include at least one layer selected from a hole-injection layer, a hole-transport layer, a hole-assisting layer, a light-emitting assisting layer, an electron-transport layer, an electron-injection layer, an intermediate layer, a hole-blocking layer, an electron-blocking layer, and an electron buffer layer. Each layer may further include several layers. The organic layer may further include at least one compound selected from the group consisting of arylamine compounds and styrylarylamine compounds, and at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Group 1 metals, Group 2 metals, Group 4 transition metals, Group 5 transition metals, lanthanides of the d-transition elements of the periodic table, and organometallic compounds or at least one complex compound containing such metals.
[0047] The organic electroluminescent material according to one embodiment can be used as a light-emitting material for a white organic light-emitting device. White organic light-emitting devices have suggested various structures, such as a parallel side-by-side arrangement method, a stacked arrangement method, or a color conversion material (CCM) method, depending on the arrangement of R (red), G (green), YG (yellow-green), or B (blue) light-emitting units. In addition, the organic electroluminescent material according to one embodiment can also be applied to an organic electroluminescent device containing QDs (quantum dots).
[0048] One of the first electrode and the second electrode can be an anode, and the other can be a cathode. In this case, the first electrode and the second electrode can be formed as a transparent conductive material, a semi-transparent conductive material, or a reflective conductive material, respectively. The organic electroluminescent device can be a top-emitting, bottom-emitting, or dual-emitting type depending on the type of material forming the first electrode and the second electrode.
[0049] A hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, or a combination thereof can be used between the anode and the light-emitting layer. The hole injection layer can be multi-layered to lower the hole injection barrier (or hole injection voltage) from the anode to the hole transport layer or electron blocking layer. In this case, each of the multi-layered layers can simultaneously use two compounds. The hole injection layer can be doped with a p-type dopant. In addition, an electron blocking layer can be disposed between the hole transport layer (or hole injection layer) and the light-emitting layer, which can confine excitons within the light-emitting layer by preventing electron overflow from the light-emitting layer, thereby preventing light leakage. The hole transport layer or electron blocking layer can be multi-layered, in which case each layer can use multiple compounds.
[0050] An electron buffer layer, a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, or a combination thereof can be used between the light-emitting layer and the cathode. The electron buffer layer can be multi-layered to control electron injection and improve the interface characteristics between the light-emitting layer and the electron injection layer, and in this case, each layer can use two compounds simultaneously. The hole blocking layer or the electron transport layer can also be multi-layered, and in this case, each layer can use multiple compounds. The electron injection layer can also be doped with an n-type dopant.
[0051] The light-emitting auxiliary layer can be disposed between the anode and the light-emitting layer or between the cathode and the light-emitting layer. When the light-emitting auxiliary layer is disposed between the anode and the light-emitting layer, it can be used to promote hole injection and / or hole transport or prevent electron overflow. When the light-emitting auxiliary layer is disposed between the cathode and the light-emitting layer, it can be used to promote electron injection and / or electron transport or prevent hole overflow. In addition, the hole auxiliary layer can be disposed between the hole transport layer (or hole injection layer) and the light-emitting layer and can be effective in promoting or blocking the hole transport rate (or hole injection rate), thereby allowing the charge balance to be controlled. When an organic electroluminescent device includes two or more hole transport layers, the additional hole transport layer can be used as a hole auxiliary layer or an electron blocking layer. The light-emitting auxiliary layer, hole auxiliary layer, or electron blocking layer can have the effect of improving the efficiency and / or life of the organic electroluminescent device.
[0052] In the organic electroluminescent device of the present disclosure, at least one layer selected from a chalcogenide layer, a metal halide layer, and a metal oxide layer (hereinafter referred to as a "surface layer") may be disposed on the inner surface of one or both electrodes. Specifically, a chalcogenide (including oxide) layer of silicon and aluminum is preferably disposed on the anode side of the electroluminescent medium layer, and a metal halide or metal oxide layer is preferably disposed on the cathode side of the electroluminescent medium layer. The surface layer may provide operational stability for the organic electroluminescent device. Preferably, the chalcogenide is SiO X (1≦X≦2), AlO X (1≦X≦1.5), SiON, SiAlON, etc., metal halides include LiF, MgF2, CaF2, rare earth metal fluorides, etc., and metal oxides include Cs2O, Li2O, MgO, SrO, BaO, CaO, etc.
[0053] Furthermore, in the organic electroluminescent device of the present disclosure, a mixed region of an electron transport compound and a reductive dopant or a mixed region of a hole transport compound and an oxidative dopant can be preferably disposed on the surface of at least one of a pair of electrodes. In this case, the electron transport compound is reduced to an anion, which facilitates the injection and transport of electrons from the mixed region to the electroluminescent medium. Furthermore, the hole transport compound is oxidized to a cation, which facilitates the injection and transport of holes from the mixed region to the electroluminescent medium. Preferably, the oxidative dopant includes various Lewis acids and acceptor compounds, and the reductive dopant includes alkali metals, alkali metal compounds, alkaline earth metals, rare earth metals, and mixtures thereof. Using the reductive dopant layer as a charge generation layer, an organic electroluminescent device having two or more light-emitting layers and emitting white light can be prepared.
[0054] To form each layer of the organic electroluminescent device of the present disclosure, dry film formation methods such as vacuum evaporation, sputtering, plasma, ion plating, etc., or wet film formation methods such as inkjet printing, nozzle printing, slot coating, spin coating, dip coating, flow coating, etc. can be used.
[0055] When using a wet film-forming method, a thin film can be formed by dissolving or dispersing the materials that form each layer in any suitable solvent such as ethanol, chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, etc. The solvent can be any solvent in which the materials that form each layer can be dissolved or dispersed and which has no problem with film-forming ability.
[0056] When forming a layer using a host compound and a dopant compound according to an embodiment, co-evaporation or mixed evaporation may be used, but is not limited to these. Co-evaporation is a mixed evaporation method in which two or more isomeric materials are placed in separate crucible sources and current is passed through both cells simultaneously to evaporate the materials, thereby performing mixed evaporation. Mixed evaporation is a mixed evaporation method in which two or more isomeric materials are mixed in one crucible source before evaporation, and then current is passed through one cell to evaporate the materials.
[0057] According to one embodiment, the organic electroluminescent device of the present disclosure can be used for manufacturing display devices such as smartphones, tablets, notebooks, PCs, TVs, or display devices for vehicles, or lighting devices such as outdoor or indoor lighting.

[0069] Device Examples 1 and 2: Preparation of OLEDs containing host compounds according to the present disclosure An OLED according to the present disclosure was fabricated. First, a transparent indium tin oxide (ITO) thin film (10 Ω / sq) (Geomatec Co., Ltd., Japan) on a glass substrate for the OLED was subjected to ultrasonic cleaning in acetone and isopropanol, followed by storage in isopropanol. The ITO substrate was then attached to a substrate holder in a vacuum evaporation system. Compound HI-1 was introduced into a cell in the vacuum evaporation system, and then compound HT-1 was introduced into another cell in the vacuum evaporation system. The two materials were evaporated at different rates, each with a doping amount of 3 wt %, to form a hole injection layer with a thickness of 10 nm on the ITO substrate. Next, compound HT-1 was introduced into the cell in the vacuum evaporation system, and a current was passed through the cell to cause evaporation, thereby forming a first hole transport layer with a thickness of 80 nm on the first hole injection layer. Next, compound HT-2 was introduced into another cell of the vacuum evaporation system, and a current was passed through the cell to evaporate it, thereby forming a second hole-transporting layer with a thickness of 60 nm on the first hole-transporting layer. After forming the hole-injection layer and hole-transporting layer, an emissive layer was formed thereon as follows. The compounds shown in Table 1 below were introduced into one cell of the vacuum evaporation system as a host, and compound D-39 was introduced into another cell as a dopant. The two materials were evaporated at different rates, each with a doping amount of 3 wt % to form an emissive layer with a thickness of 40 nm on the hole-transporting layer. Next, compounds ET-1 and EI-1 were evaporated in a 1:1 ratio in two other cells to form an electron-transporting layer with a thickness of 35 nm on the emissive layer. After compound EI-1 was deposited on the electron-transporting layer as a 2 nm-thick electron-injection layer, an 80 nm-thick Al cathode was deposited on the electron-injection layer using another vacuum evaporation system. Thus, an OLED was fabricated.
[0070] [Comparative Example 1] Preparation of an OLED containing a conventional host compound An OLED was fabricated in the same manner as in Device Example 1, except that the compound CBP was used as the host in the emissive layer.
