Abstract
Description
Technology Field
[0001] The present invention relates to organometallic compounds, and more specifically, to organometallic compounds having phosphorescent properties and organic light-emitting diodes containing the same. Background Technology
[0003] Interest in display devices is growing as they are applied in various fields. As one of these display devices, the technology of organic light-emitting display devices, including organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), is developing rapidly.
[0004] Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are devices that emit light by injecting charges into a light-emitting layer formed between an anode and a cathode, causing electrons and holes to pair up to form excitons. Compared to conventional display technologies, OLEDs offer several advantages, including low-voltage operation, relatively low power consumption, and excellent color reproduction. Furthermore, they allow for the application of flexible substrates, enabling diverse applications and the ability to freely adjust the size of the display device. The problem to be solved
[0006] Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have superior viewing angles and contrast ratios compared to liquid crystal displays (LCDs), and because they do not require a backlight, they can be lightweight and ultra-thin. An organic light-emitting diode is formed by arranging a plurality of organic layers, such as a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a hole transport assist layer, an electron blocking layer, a light-emitting layer, and an electron transport layer, between a cathode (electron injection electrode) and an anode (hole injection electrode).
[0007] In this organic light-emitting diode structure, when a voltage is applied between the two electrodes, electrons and holes are injected from the cathode and anode, respectively, and excitons generated in the light-emitting layer fall to the ground state and emit light.
[0008] Organic materials used in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) can be broadly classified into light-emitting materials and charge transport materials. Light-emitting materials are a critical factor in determining the luminous efficiency of OLEDs; they must possess high quantum efficiency, excellent electron and hole mobility, and exist uniformly and stably within the light-emitting layer. Light-emitting materials are classified into blue, red, and green types based on the color of the emitted light, and they are used as hosts or dopants to increase color purity and enhance luminous efficiency through energy transfer.
[0009] Recently, there has been a trend of using phosphorescent materials more than fluorescent materials in the emissive layer. This is because, in the case of fluorescent materials, only about 25% of the singlets among the excitons formed in the emissive layer are used to produce light, and 75% of the triplets are mostly lost as heat, whereas phosphorescent materials have a light emission mechanism that converts both singlets and triplets into light.
[0010] Conventionally, organometallic compounds have been used as phosphorescent materials in organic light-emitting diodes, and there is a continuous demand for research and development of phosphorescent materials to solve the problems of their low efficiency and lifespan.
[0011] Accordingly, the objective of the present invention is to provide an organometallic compound capable of improving driving voltage, efficiency, and lifespan, and an organic light-emitting diode in which the same is applied to an organic light-emitting layer.
[0013] The objects of the present invention are not limited to those mentioned above, and other unmentioned objects and advantages of the present invention may be understood from the following description and will be more clearly understood by the embodiments of the present invention. Furthermore, it will be readily apparent that the objects and advantages of the present invention can be realized by the means and combinations thereof set forth in the claims. means of solving the problem

In describing the present invention, detailed descriptions of known technologies related to the present invention are omitted if it is determined that such descriptions would unnecessarily obscure the essence of the invention. Hereinafter, preferred embodiments according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings. In the drawings, the same reference numerals are used to indicate the same or similar components.

[0039] In interpreting the components below, they shall be interpreted to include a margin of error even without separate explicit notation.
[0040] In the following, the statement that any configuration is placed on the "upper (or lower)" of a component or on the "upper (or lower)" of a component may mean not only that any configuration is placed in contact with the upper (or lower) surface of said component, but also that another configuration may be interposed between said component and any configuration placed on (or below) said component.
[0042] Hereinafter, the structure and preparation examples of an organometallic compound according to the present invention and an organic light-emitting diode containing the same will be described.
[0044] Conventionally, organometallic compounds have been used as dopants for phosphorescent light-emitting layers, and for example, structures such as 2-phenylpyridine, 2-phenylquinoline, and 2-pyridine benzofuropyridine are known as main ligand structures of organometallic compounds. However, these conventional light-emitting dopants have limitations in improving the efficiency and lifespan of organic light-emitting devices, so it was necessary to develop novel light-emitting dopant materials. Accordingly, the inventors sought to derive a light-emitting dopant material capable of further improving the efficiency and lifespan of organic light-emitting devices.
[0046] As a result of the inventors' research, they confirmed that the objective of the present invention was achieved by using an organometallic compound represented by the following chemical formula 1 as a phosphorescent light-emitting dopant material, and completed the present invention.
[0047] [Chemical Formula 1]
[0048] In the above chemical formula 1,
[0049] X can be one selected from the group consisting of O, S and Se;
[0050] X1, X2, and X3 are each independently N or CR a It could be;
[0051] R1, R2 and R3 can each independently represent a single substitution, a two-substitution, a three-substitution, a four-substitution, or no substitution;
[0052] R5, R 6, R 7, R a Each can independently represent a single substitution, a two-substitution, a three-substitution, or a non-substitution;
[0053] R4 and R8 can each independently represent a single substitution, a heterosubstitution, or a nonsubstitution;
[0054] R1, R2, R3, R4, R 7, R8 and R a Each can be independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, deuterium, halide, alkyl, cycloalkyl, heteroalkyl, arylalkyl, alkoxy, aryloxy, amino, silyl, alkenyl, cycloalkenyl, heteroalkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, acyl, carbonyl, carboxylic acid, ester, nitrile, isonitrile, sulfanyl, sulfinyl, sulfonyl, phosphino, and combinations thereof;
[0055] R5 and R6 are each independently selected from the group consisting of halides, alkyl, cycloalkyl, heteroalkyl, arylalkyl, alkoxy, aryloxy, amino, silyl, alkenyl, cycloalkenyl, heteroalkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, acyl, carbonyl, carboxylic acid, ester, nitrile, isonitrile, sulfanyl, sulfinyl, sulfonyl, phosphino, and combinations thereof;
[0056] n can be 0, 1, or 2.
[0058] In particular, as can be seen in the main ligand structure of Chemical Formula 1 above, by increasing the long-short axis ratio of the carbon (C) connected ring portion among the two rings connected to the central coordination metal Ir (iridium), it was possible to increase the device performance, including the luminous efficiency, of an organic light-emitting diode using the organometallic compound of Chemical Formula 1 as a phosphorescent light-emitting dopant. The long-short axis ratio refers to the ratio of the long axis length of the optimized target material to the short axis length perpendicular thereto, calculated through B3LYP / LANL2DZ (6-31g,d) in the Gaussian16 program. In this case, the long axis length refers to the length of the longest part of the material with the central coordination metal Ir as the axis.
[0060] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, in Formula 1, R5 and R6 may each be independently selected from the group consisting of a C1-C6 straight-chain alkyl group single-substituted with a deuterium or halogen element; a branched-chain alkyl group single-substituted with a deuterium or halogen element; and a cycloalkyl group single-substituted with a deuterium or halogen element.
[0062] For example, an organometallic compound was derived by combining a ‘bulky 6-membered aromatic ring structure having a substituent (excluding hydrogen)’ with a ‘benzofuropyridine group’ in which X of Chemical Formula 1 of the present invention is O (oxygen). In this way, the present invention was completed by experimentally confirming the excellent effect of increasing the luminous efficiency and lifespan of the organic light-emitting diode and lowering the driving voltage when the organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 is included in the dopant material of the phosphorescent light-emitting layer of the organic light-emitting diode.
[0063] Specifically, it was confirmed that the organometallic compound structure of Formula 1 of the present invention can i) increase the long-short axis ratio compared to conventional compounds that do not have an aromatic ring structure in the 'benzofuropyridine group', thereby improving the efficiency of an organic light-emitting diode using the organometallic compound of Formula 1 of the present invention, ii) increase the lifespan of the organic light-emitting diode using the organometallic compound of Formula 1 of the present invention as the stability of the main ligand structure is also increased, and iii) simultaneously exhibit excellent effects such as suppressing the red shift phenomenon of the organic light-emitting diode using the organometallic compound of Formula 1 of the present invention.
[0064] More specifically, when controlling an organic light-emitting diode using an organometallic compound, such as an iridium complex which is a phosphorescent light-emitting dopant, to improve efficiency and lifespan, it was common for the desired wavelength of emission to become somewhat longer. However, as can be seen in Table 1 below, the organometallic compound of Formula 1 of the present invention maintains the desired wavelength of emission (e.g., at the level of 520 nm to 540 nm in the case of a green phosphorescent light-emitting layer) and does not lengthen the wavelength of emission, thus having significant technical significance in that the efficiency and lifespan of organic light emission are improved while the color change phenomenon is suppressed.
[0066] As will be described in more detail below in the specific embodiments of the present invention and the performance evaluation of the organic light-emitting diode, the long-short axis ratio of ‘Ref 1’ and ‘Ref 3’, which are organometallic compounds according to one embodiment of the present invention, and ‘Target Comp.’, which falls under the definition of Chemical Formula 1 of the present invention, were applied as dopant materials to the organic light-emitting diode, and in order to accurately compare the long-short axis ratios, the auxiliary ligand portions were all applied identically.
[0067] The method of fabricating the organic light-emitting diode is the same as in <Example 1>, except that the dopant materials used are 'Ref 1', 'Ref 3', and 'Target Comp.' instead of Compound 1, and the measurement method for EQE and LT95 of the organic light-emitting diode is the same as the method described in <Performance Evaluation of Organic Light-Emitting Diode> below, and the results are shown in Table 1 below.
[0068] The 'long-short axis ratio' was measured and calculated by dividing the ratio of the long axis length of the material, optimized through the calculation of B3LYP / LANL2DZ (6-31g,d) in the Gaussian 16 program, by the short axis length perpendicular to it. In addition, as a result of measuring the emission wavelength of organic light-emitting diodes using 'Ref 3' and 'Target Comp.', it was confirmed that when using 'Ref 3', the wavelength increased by about 10–15 nm compared to when using 'Target Comp.', and both efficiency and characteristics were inferior.

[0091] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the organometallic compound represented by Formula 1 of the present invention can be used as a red phosphorescent material or a green phosphorescent material, and preferably as a green phosphorescent material.
[0093] Referring to FIG. 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention, an organic light-emitting element (100) may be provided, comprising: a first electrode (110); a second electrode (120) facing the first electrode (110); and an organic layer (130) disposed between the first electrode (110) and the second electrode (120). The organic layer (130) comprises a light-emitting layer (160), the light-emitting layer (160) comprises a host (160') and a dopant (160"), and the dopant (160") may comprise an organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1. Additionally, in the organic light-emitting diode (100), the organic layer (130) disposed between the first electrode (110) and the second electrode (120) may have a structure comprising, sequentially from the first electrode (110), a hole injection layer (140, hole injection layer; HIL), a hole transport layer (150, hole transfer layer; HTL), an emission material layer (160, emission material layer, EML), an electron transport layer (170, electron transfer layer; ETL), and an electron injection layer (180, electron injection layer, EIL). The second electrode (120) may be formed on the electron injection layer (180), and a protective film (not shown) may be formed thereon.
[0095] Additionally, although not illustrated in FIG. 1, a hole transport auxiliary layer may be further added between the hole transport layer (150) and the light-emitting layer (160). The hole transport auxiliary layer includes a compound with good hole transport characteristics and controls the hole injection characteristics by reducing the HOMO energy level difference between the hole transport layer (150) and the light-emitting layer (160), thereby reducing the accumulation of holes at the interface between the hole transport auxiliary layer and the light-emitting layer (160) and reducing the quenching phenomenon in which excitons are extinguished by polarons at the interface. Accordingly, the degradation of the device is reduced and the device is stabilized, thereby improving efficiency and lifespan.
[0097] The first electrode (110) may be an anode and may be made of a conductive material such as ITO, IZO, tin oxide, or zinc oxide, which has a relatively large work function value, but is not limited thereto.
[0098] The second electrode (120) may be a negative electrode and may include a conductive material such as Al, Mg, Ca, Ag, or an alloy or combination thereof that has a relatively low work function value, but is not limited thereto.

The hole injection layer (140) has the function of improving the interface characteristics between the first electrode (110) and the hole transport layer (150) and may be selected from a material having appropriate conductivity. The hole injection layer (140) may include compounds such as MTDATA, CuPc, TCTA, HATCN, TDAPB, PEDOT / PSS, N1,N1'-([1,1'-biphenyl]-4,4'-diyl)bis(N1,N4,N4-triphenylbenzene-1,4-diamine), and preferably may include N1,N1'-([1,1'-biphenyl]-4,4'-diyl)bis(N1,N4,N4-triphenylbenzene-1,4-diamine), but is not limited thereto.

The hole transport layer (150) may include compounds such as TPD, NPB, CBP, N-(biphenyl-4-yl)-9,9-dimethyl-N-(4-(9-phenyl-9H-carbazole-3-yl)phenyl)-9H-fluorene-2-amine, N-(biphenyl-4-yl)-N-(4-(9-phenyl-9H-carbazole-3-yl)phenyl)biphenyl)-4-amine, and preferably may include NPB, but is not limited thereto.
[0104] According to the present invention, the light-emitting layer (160) may be formed by doping an organometallic compound represented by Formula 1 as a dopant (160) to improve the light-emitting efficiency of the host (160') and the device, and the dopant (160) may be used as a material that emits green or red light, and preferably as a green phosphorescent material.
[0105] The doping concentration of the dopant (160) of the present invention can be controlled within a range of 1 to 30 weight% based on the total weight of the host (160'), and is not limited thereto, for example, the doping concentration may be 2 to 20 weight%, for example, 3 to 15 weight%, for example, 5 to 10 weight%, for example, 3 to 8 weight%, for example, 2 to 7 weight%, for example, 5 to 7 weight%, for example, 5 to 6 weight%.
[0107] The light-emitting layer (160) of the present invention may include an organometallic compound represented by Chemical Formula 1 in the dopant (160") material, and may use a host (160') material used in the art field that can achieve the effects of the present invention. For example, in the present invention, a compound containing a carbazole group may be used as the host (160'), and preferably may include host materials such as CBP (carbazole biphenyl) and mCP (1,3-bis(carbazol-9-yl), but is not limited thereto.
[0109] Additionally, an electron transport layer (170) and an electron injection layer (180) may be sequentially stacked between the light-emitting layer (160) and the second electrode (120). The material of the electron transport layer (170) requires high electron mobility, and electrons can be stably supplied to the light-emitting layer through smooth electron transport.
[0111] For example, the material of the electron transport layer (170) is one used in the art, for example, Alq3 (tris(8-hydroxyquinolino)aluminum), Liq (8-hydroxyquinolinolatolithium), PBD (2-(4-biphenylyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole), TAZ (3-(4-biphenyl)4-phenyl-5-tert-butylphenyl-1,2,4-triazole), spiro-PBD, BAlq (bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinolate)-4-(phenylphenolato)aluminum), SAlq, TPBi (2,2',2-(1,3,5-benzinetriyl)-tris(1-phenyl-1-H-benzimidazole), oxadiazole, triazole, phenanthroline, benzoxazole, It may include compounds such as benzthiazole, 2-(4-(9,10-di(naphthalen-2-yl)anthracen-2-yl)phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole, and preferably 2-(4-(9,10-di(naphthalen-2-yl)anthracen-2-yl)phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole, but is not limited thereto.

In the case of a tandem organic light-emitting device according to one embodiment of the present invention, a single light-emitting stack (or light-emitting part) may be formed in a structure in which two or more are connected by a charge generation layer (CGL). The organic light-emitting device may include two or more plural light-emitting stacks (light-emitting parts) having a first electrode and a second electrode facing each other on a substrate, and a light-emitting layer stacked between the first and second electrodes that emits light of a specific wavelength range.

Although not illustrated in FIG. 3, each of the first, second, and third light-emitting parts (ST1, ST2, and ST3) may be formed with a plurality of light-emitting layers by including additional light-emitting layers in addition to the first light-emitting layer (261), the second light-emitting layer (262), and the third light-emitting layer (263).
[0121] Furthermore, an organic light-emitting device according to one embodiment of the present invention may include a tandem structure in which four or more light-emitting parts and three or more charge-generating layers are disposed between a first electrode and a second electrode.
[0123] The organic light-emitting element according to the present invention can be utilized in organic light-emitting display devices and lighting devices to which the organic light-emitting element is applied. In one embodiment, FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view schematically illustrating an organic light-emitting display device to which an organic light-emitting element according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is applied.
[0124] As illustrated in FIG. 4, the organic light-emitting display device (3000) may include a substrate (3010), an organic light-emitting element (4000), and an encapsulation film (3900) covering the organic light-emitting element (4000). On the substrate (3010), a driving thin-film transistor (Td), which is a driving element, and an organic light-emitting element (4000) connected to the driving thin-film transistor (Td) are positioned.
[0125] Although not explicitly shown in FIG. 4, on the substrate (3010), gate wiring and data wiring that intersect each other to define pixel regions, power wiring that extends spaced apart parallel to either of the gate wiring and data wiring, switching thin-film transistors connected to the gate wiring and data wiring, and storage capacitors connected to one electrode of the power wiring and switching thin-film transistors are further formed.
[0126] The driving thin-film transistor (Td) is connected to the switching thin-film transistor and includes a semiconductor layer (3100), a gate electrode (3300), a source electrode (3520), and a drain electrode (3540).
[0127] The semiconductor layer (3100) is formed on the substrate (3010) and may be made of an oxide semiconductor material or polycrystalline silicon. If the semiconductor layer (3100) is made of an oxide semiconductor material, a light-blocking pattern (not shown) may be formed on the lower part of the semiconductor layer (3100), and the light-blocking pattern prevents light from being incident on the semiconductor layer (3100) to prevent the semiconductor layer (3100) from deteriorating due to light. Alternatively, the semiconductor layer (3100) may be made of polycrystalline silicon, in which case impurities may be doped on both edges of the semiconductor layer (3100).
[0128] A gate insulating film (3200) made of an insulating material is formed on the front surface of the substrate (3010) on the upper side of the semiconductor layer (3100). The gate insulating film (3200) may be made of an inorganic insulating material such as silicon oxide or silicon nitride.
[0129] A gate electrode (3300) made of a conductive material such as metal is formed on the upper part of the gate insulating film (3200) in correspondence with the center of the semiconductor layer (3100). The gate electrode (3300) is connected to a switching thin-film transistor.
[0130] An interlayer insulating film (3400) made of an insulating material is formed on the front surface of the substrate (3010) above the gate electrode (3300). The interlayer insulating film (3400) may be formed of an inorganic insulating material such as silicon oxide or silicon nitride, or of an organic insulating material such as benzocyclobutene or photoacryl.
[0131] The interlayer insulating film (3400) has first and second semiconductor layer contact holes (3420, 3440) that expose both sides of the semiconductor layer (3100). The first and second semiconductor layer contact holes (3420, 3440) are located on both sides of the gate electrode (3300) and spaced apart from the gate electrode (3300).
[0132] A source electrode (3520) and a drain electrode (3540) made of a conductive material such as metal are formed on the interlayer insulating film (3400). The source electrode (3520) and the drain electrode (3540) are spaced apart from the gate electrode (3300) and contact both sides of the semiconductor layer (3100) through the first and second semiconductor layer contact holes (3420, 3440), respectively. The source electrode (3520) is connected to a power wire (not shown).
[0133] A semiconductor layer (3100), a gate electrode (3300), a source electrode (3520), and a drain electrode (3540) form a driving thin-film transistor (Td), and the driving thin-film transistor (Td) has a coplanar structure in which the gate electrode (3300), the source electrode (3520), and the drain electrode (3540) are located on the upper part of the semiconductor layer (3100).
[0134] In contrast, the driving thin-film transistor (Td) may have an inverted staggered structure in which the gate electrode is located at the bottom of the semiconductor layer and the source and drain electrodes are located at the top of the semiconductor layer. In this case, the semiconductor layer may be made of amorphous silicon. Meanwhile, the switching thin-film transistor (not shown) may have a structure substantially identical to that of the driving thin-film transistor (Td).
[0135] Meanwhile, the organic light-emitting display device (3000) may include a color filter (3600) that absorbs light generated from an organic light-emitting element (4000). For example, the color filter (3600) may absorb red (R), green (G), blue (B), and white (W) light. In this case, the red, green, and blue color filter patterns that absorb light may be formed separately for each pixel area, and each of these color filter patterns may be arranged to overlap with the organic layer (4300) in the organic light-emitting element (4000) that emits light of the wavelength band to be absorbed. By adopting the color filter (3600), the organic light-emitting display device (3000) can achieve full color.
[0136] For example, if the organic light-emitting display device (3000) is of the bottom-emission type, a color filter (3600) that absorbs light may be located on the upper part of the interlayer insulating film (3400) corresponding to the organic light-emitting element (4000). In an exemplary embodiment, if the organic light-emitting display device (3000) is of the top-emission type, the color filter may be located on the upper part of the organic light-emitting element (4000), that is, on the upper part of the second electrode (4200). For example, the color filter (3600) may be formed with a thickness of 2 to 5 μm.
[0137] Meanwhile, a protective layer (3700) having a drain contact hole (3720) that exposes the drain electrode (3540) of the driving thin-film transistor (Td) is formed to cover the driving thin-film transistor (Td).
[0138] On the protective layer (3700), a first electrode (4100) connected to the drain electrode (3540) of the driving thin-film transistor (Td) through the drain contact hole (3720) is formed separately for each pixel area.
[0139] The first electrode (4100) may be an anode and may be made of a conductive material having a relatively large work function value. For example, the first electrode (4100) may be made of a transparent conductive material such as ITO, IZO, or ZnO.
[0140] Meanwhile, if the organic light-emitting display device (3000) is of the top-emission type, a reflective electrode or reflective layer may be further formed below the first electrode (4100). For example, the reflective electrode or reflective layer may be made of any one of aluminum (Al), silver (Ag), nickel (Ni), or aluminum-palladium-copper (APC) alloy.
[0141] A bank layer (3800) covering the edge of the first electrode (4100) is formed on the protective layer (3700). The bank layer (3800) exposes the center of the first electrode (4100) corresponding to the pixel area.
[0142] An organic layer (4300) is formed on the first electrode (4100), and if necessary, the organic light-emitting element (4000) may have a tandem structure, and for the tandem structure, refer to FIGS. 2 to 4 showing exemplary embodiments of the present invention and the above description thereof.
[0143] A second electrode (4200) is formed on the upper surface of a substrate (3010) on which an organic layer (4300) is formed. The second electrode (4200) is located on the front surface of the display area and is made of a conductive material with a relatively small work function value and can be used as a cathode. For example, the second electrode (4200) can be made of any one of aluminum (Al), magnesium (Mg), or an aluminum-magnesium alloy (Al-Mg).
[0144] The first electrode (4100), the organic layer (4300), and the second electrode (4200) form an organic light-emitting element (4000).
[0145] On the second electrode (4200), an encapsulation film (3900) is formed to prevent external moisture from penetrating into the organic light-emitting diode (4000). Although not explicitly shown in FIG. 4, the encapsulation film (3900) may have a triple-layer structure in which a first inorganic layer, an organic layer, and an inorganic layer are sequentially stacked, but is not limited thereto.
[0147] The following describes manufacturing examples and embodiments of the present invention. However, the following embodiments are merely examples of the present invention and are not limited thereto.
