DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present application, as detailed in the appended claims.

[0038] Referring to Figure 1 , the present application provides a display panel. The display panel includes a light-emitting structure, which comprises a first electrode 1, a first light-emitting unit 2, and a second electrode 3. The first light-emitting unit 2 is disposed on one side of the first electrode 1, and the second electrode 3 is disposed on the side of the first light-emitting unit 2 facing away from the first electrode 1.

[0039] The first electrode 1 can be a cathode or an anode. When the first electrode 1 is an anode, the second electrode 3 is a cathode; conversely, when the first electrode 1 is a cathode, the second electrode 3 is an anode.

[0040] In the embodiment of the present application, preferably, the first electrode 1 is an anode.

[0041] The first electrode 1 is made of an electrode material with a high work function, and can be a transparent oxide ITO (indium tin oxide) or IZO (tin zinc oxide), etc. When the above electrode material is used, the thickness of the first electrode 1 should optionally be greater than 80nm and less than 200nm. At this time, the display panel provided in this application is a bottom emission structure.

[0042] The first electrode 1 may also be a composite electrode formed of a metal and an oxide, such as Ag / ITO, Al / ITO, Ag / ITO, or Al / IZO. In this case, the metal thickness in the composite electrode should be greater than 10 nm and less than 100 nm, and the corresponding oxide layer thickness should be greater than 5 nm and less than 20 nm. In this case, the display panel provided in this application has a top-emitting structure.

[0043] The second electrode 3, thus serving as the cathode, can be made of a metal material with a low work function, such as Al, Ag, or Mg, or an alloy containing such a metal material. When the display panel has a bottom-emitting structure, the thickness of the second electrode 3 is greater than 80 nm to ensure good reflectivity. Preferably, its transmittance for light with a wavelength of 550 nm should be greater than 85%.

[0044] When the display panel is a top-emitting structure, the thickness of the second electrode 3 should be adjusted between greater than 10nm and less than 20nm to ensure its transmittance. Preferably, at this time, its transmittance to light with a wavelength of 550nm should be greater than 45%, and an optical capping layer (CPL, Capping Layer) should be covered on the metal layer of the second electrode 3 to improve its optical output. Preferably, the material for making the optical capping layer should be formed by evaporation of a small molecule material with a high refractive index. Furthermore, its refractive index at 550nm should be greater than 1.8, and its thickness should be greater than 50nm and less than 100nm.

[0045] As shown in FIG1 , an encapsulation layer 4 is provided above the second electrode 3 to encapsulate the first electrode 1, the second electrode 3, and the first light-emitting unit 2 to prevent damage from the external environment. The encapsulation layer 4 can be encapsulated using UV sealant or thin film encapsulation (TFE).

[0046] The first light-emitting unit 2 includes a hole injection layer 26 , a first hole transport layer 21 , a first light-emitting layer 23 , a first hole blocking layer 24 , a first electron transport layer 25 and an electron injection layer 27 stacked in sequence from bottom to top.

[0047] The first light-emitting layer 23 includes three sub-light-emitting layers 231: a red light-emitting layer 2311, a green light-emitting layer 2312, and a blue light-emitting layer 2313. At least one of the three sub-light-emitting layers 231 comprises a material exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence. A first common electron-blocking layer 22 is also disposed between the first hole-transporting layer 21 and the first light-emitting layer 23.

[0048] The three sub-light-emitting layers 231 are spaced apart and disposed between the first common electron blocking layer 22 and the first electron transport layer 25. The area of ​​the first common electron blocking layer 22 is greater than or equal to the sum of the areas of the three sub-light-emitting layers 231. The first light-emitting layer 23 further includes a pixel definition layer (PDL) (not shown), which is disposed between the three sub-light-emitting layers 231. The three sub-light-emitting layers 231 are separated by the pixel definition layer. Due to process limitations, in an embodiment, the edge regions of the three sub-light-emitting layers 231 may partially overlap. Specifically, the red light-emitting layer 2311 may overlap with the adjacent green light-emitting layer 2312 or blue light-emitting layer 2313 in the edge region.

[0049] An electron blocking layer (EBL) is a layered material used in semiconductor devices. Its primary function is to block the unnecessary transmission or leakage of electrons within the device, effectively preventing electrons from entering irrelevant layers from the electron transport layer or electrode. This ensures the accuracy and stability of electron injection, helping to improve the device's electron transport efficiency and luminescence. The EBL provides a certain energy band barrier, effectively reducing or blocking leakage current within the device. It can also be used to optimize interface matching between different materials, bridging energy level differences between interfaces and improving electron transport efficiency between materials, thereby reducing non-ideal phenomena such as band bending and reflection.

[0050] Therefore, conventional solutions generally place a corresponding electron-blocking layer under each sub-luminescent layer 231. The area of ​​this electron-blocking layer should be greater than or equal to the area of ​​its corresponding sub-luminescent layer 231, and the thickness of the red electron-blocking layer should be greater than that of the blue electron-blocking layer, which in turn should be greater than that of the green electron-blocking layer. However, conventional electron-blocking layers require evaporation using a fine metal mask, making the manufacturing process difficult and costly.

[0051] Based on the traditional solution, the present application sets a first common electron blocking layer 22, and the three sub-light-emitting layers 231 are all located between the first common electron blocking layer 22 and the first electron transport layer 25. There is no need to set an electron blocking layer separately for the sub-light-emitting layer 231 containing thermally activated delayed fluorescence material. The number of electron blocking layers can be reduced accordingly, thereby reducing the number of evaporation chambers and fine metal films, and reducing the difficulty and cost of process manufacturing.

[0052] 1 to 3 , at least one of the sub-light-emitting layers 231 mentioned in the present application contains a material having thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties, which means that one sub-light-emitting layer 231 may be doped with thermally activated delayed fluorescence, or two or even all sub-light-emitting layers 231 may be doped with thermally activated delayed fluorescence.

[0053] When only one sub-light-emitting layer 231 is subjected to thermally activated delayed fluorescence doping, as shown in FIG1 , taking the thermally activated delayed fluorescence doping of the green light-emitting layer 2312 as an example, the green light-emitting layer 2312 does not need to be provided with a corresponding separate electron blocking layer; the electron blocking effect can be achieved solely through the first common electron blocking layer 22. In this case, the red light-emitting layer 2311 and the blue light-emitting layer 2313 are each provided with a corresponding red light electron blocking layer 2321 and a blue light electron blocking layer 2322 below them. Because the red light-emitting layer 2311 and the blue light-emitting layer 2313 are both located above the first common electron blocking layer 22, the first common electron blocking layer 22 can also enhance the effects of the red light electron blocking layer 2321 and the blue light electron blocking layer 2322, respectively.

[0054] This embodiment is not limited to the thermally activated delayed fluorescence doping of the green light emitting layer 2312 , and the red light emitting layer 2311 and the blue light emitting layer 2313 can also be used as embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0055] When thermally activated delayed fluorescence doping is performed on the two sub-light-emitting layers 231, as shown in FIG2 , taking the thermally activated delayed fluorescence doping of the red light-emitting layer 2311 and the green light-emitting layer 2312 as an example, the red light-emitting layer 2311 and the green light-emitting layer 2312 do not need to be provided with corresponding separate electron blocking layers. The electron blocking effect can be achieved solely through the first common electron blocking layer 22. In this case, a corresponding blue light electron blocking layer 2322 is provided below the blue light-emitting layer 2313.

[0056] The thermally activated delayed fluorescence doping of the two sub-light-emitting layers 231 is not limited to the red light-emitting layer 2311 and the green light-emitting layer 2312. It is foreseeable that the red light-emitting layer 2311 and the blue light-emitting layer 2313, and the green light-emitting layer 2312 and the blue light-emitting layer 2313 can also be used as an embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

[0057] When the three sub-light emitting layers 231 are doped with thermally activated delayed fluorescence, as shown in FIG. 3 , the electron blocking effect for all the sub-light emitting layers 231 can be achieved only by the first common electron blocking layer 22 .

[0058] Specifically, referring to Figure 1, taking the thermally activated delayed fluorescence doping of a single green light-emitting layer 2312 as an example, in this embodiment, the hole injection layer 26 can be made of an injection material such as CuPc, HATCN, or MnO3, or can be formed by p-type doping in a hole transport material. When a hole transport material is used for p-type doping, the p-type dopant can optionally be an inorganic oxide material or an organic radialene material. The thickness of the hole injection layer 26 should be greater than 1 nm and less than 30 nm. The hole injection layer 26 can be formed by multi-source co-evaporation.

[0059] The first hole transport layer 21 can be formed of a material having good hole transport properties, including carbazole and its derivatives with high hole mobility. The thickness of the first hole transport layer 21 should be greater than 1 nm and less than 200 nm.

[0060] The electron injection layer 27 can be formed by evaporation using a low work function metal material such as Li, Ca, Yb, or a metal salt such as LiF or LiQ3. The thickness of the electron injection layer 27 should be greater than 0.5 nm and less than 2 nm. In the embodiment of the present application, the electron injection layer 27 is formed by evaporation using a Yb metal material.

[0061] The first common electron blocking layer 22 has a high first excited triplet energy level, at least not lower than the first excited triplet energy level of the thermally activated delayed fluorescent material in the green light-emitting layer 2312. This serves to prevent exciton leakage from the light-emitting layer, thereby improving efficiency and stability. The material of the first common electron blocking layer 22 can be selected from hole-type carbazole and aromatic amine derivatives, and its thickness does not exceed 10 nm.

[0062] The blue electron blocking layer 2322 is used to reduce the barrier for hole transport from the adjacent first hole transport layer 21 to the blue light-emitting layer 2313. Therefore, the highest occupied molecular orbital energy level of the material in this layer should be between the highest occupied molecular orbital energy level of the adjacent first hole transport layer 21 and the highest occupied molecular orbital energy level of the host material of the blue light-emitting layer 2313. Furthermore, the blue electron blocking layer 2322 also has an exciton-blocking effect, ensuring that the singlet first excited state energy of the material in this layer is greater than the singlet first excited state energy of the material in the blue light-emitting layer 2313. Optionally, this layer can be made of carbazole and its derivatives.

[0063] The red electron blocking layer 2321 is used to reduce the hole transmission barrier from the adjacent first hole transport layer 21 to the red light emitting layer 2311, while ensuring that the excitons in the light emitting layer do not overflow. Optionally, the material of this layer can be carbazole and its derivatives.

[0064] The blue light-emitting layer 2313 comprises at least a host material and a fluorescent guest material. The host material's emission spectrum significantly overlaps with the guest material's absorption spectrum. Under normalized spectral conditions, the overlapping area of ​​the host material accounts for at least 60% of the guest absorption spectrum. Optional host materials include anthracenes, fluorenes, pyrenes, or their derivatives. The guest material can be a pyrene-based organic compound or a boron-containing organic compound. The doping concentration can be adjusted between 0.5% and 5%, and its main emission peak wavelength should be between 450 and 480 nm.

[0065] The green light-emitting layer 2312 includes a hole-type host material, a material having thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) properties, and a fluorescent guest material. The hole-type host material can be a carbazole-based material, the TDF material can be a polycarbazole-based material having a DLA structure, and the fluorescent guest material can be a boron-containing organic compound. The host material has a first excited triplet energy level higher than the first excited triplet energy level of the TDF material. Preferably, the first excited triplet energy level of the hole-type host material is at least 0.1 eV higher than that of the TDF material. The emission spectrum of the TDF material significantly overlaps with the absorption spectrum of the guest material. Optimally, the overlap area of ​​the normalized spectrum of the TDF material should account for at least 60% of the guest absorption spectrum area.

[0066] The red light-emitting layer 2311 comprises at least a P-type host material, an N-type host material, and a luminescent guest material. The N-type host material can be a conventional material or a material exhibiting thermally activated delayed fluorescence. The luminescent guest material can be a phosphorescent material or a boron-containing fluorescent material. The thickness of the red light-emitting layer 2311 can be adjusted between greater than 30 nm and less than 80 nm.

[0067] The thickness of the first hole blocking layer 24 should be greater than 5 nm and less than 30 nm. The first excited triplet energy level of the material in this layer must be greater than the first excited triplet energy level of the material with thermally activated delayed fluorescence in the connected green light-emitting layer 2312. Preferably, the difference should be greater than or equal to 0.2 eV. The absolute value of the highest occupied molecular orbital energy level of the material in the first hole blocking layer 24 must be greater than the absolute value of the highest occupied molecular orbital energy level of the material in all connected sub-light-emitting layers 231. Preferably, it should be greater than 0.2 eV. The absolute value of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy level of the material in the first hole blocking layer 24 must be less than the absolute value of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy level of the material in all connected sub-light-emitting layers 231.

[0068] The electron injection layer 27 can be formed by evaporating a material having excellent electron transport properties, or by doping an electron transport material with LIQ3, Li, Ca, or other materials in a certain ratio. The absolute value of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy level of all materials in the electron injection layer 27 must be greater than the absolute value of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy level of the material of the first hole blocking layer 24 to which it is connected.

[0069] It is worth mentioning that the energy levels and mobilities of the first common electron blocking layer 22 and the adjacent film layers should satisfy the following relationship:

[0070] |HOMO(GEBL)-HOMO(HTL)|≤0.25eV, preferably ≤0.15eV

[0071] |HOMO(G EBL)-HOMO(B EBL)|≤0.25eV, preferably ≤0.15eV

[0072] ∣HOMO(G EBL)-HOMO(R EBL)∣≤0.25eV

[0073] Among them, HOMO(G EBL) refers to the HOMO energy level value of the first common electron blocking layer 22, HOMO(HTL) refers to the HOMO energy level value of the first hole transporting layer 21 (HBL Hole Transporting Layer), HOMO(B EBL) refers to the HOMO energy level value of the blue electron blocking layer 2322, and HOMO(R EBL) refers to the HOMO energy level value of the red electron blocking layer 2321.

[0074] At this time, it is ensured that holes can be smoothly injected into the red light emitting layer 2311 and the blue light emitting layer 2313;

[0075] Preferably, since the turn-on voltage of the red light emitting layer 2311 is lower than that of the blue light emitting layer 2313, the potential barrier of the red light emitting layer 2311 should be increased to increase the turn-on voltage of the red light emitting layer 2311 and reduce the voltage difference between the red light emitting layer 2311 and the blue light emitting layer 2313 to facilitate better display of the image. Therefore, |HOMO(G EBL)-HOMO(R EBL)|≥|HOMO(G EBL)-HOMO (B EBL)| should be satisfied;

[0076] Preferably, since the turn-on voltage of the red light emitting layer 2311 is lower than that of the blue light emitting layer 2313, and due to the presence of the first common electron blocking layer 22, in order to prevent the crosstalk problem caused by lateral leakage, the following hole mobility needs to be met:

[0077] 10-5<hole mobility (GEBL) / hole mobility (HTL)<10-3

[0078] 10-4<Hole mobility (G EBL) / Hole mobility (R EBL)<10-2

[0079] 10-2<hole mobility (G EBL) / hole mobility (B EBL)<10

[0080] 10-3<hole mobility (B EBL) / hole mobility (R EBL)<10-1.

[0081] Among them, the hole mobility (GEBL) refers to the hole mobility of the first common electron blocking layer 22, the hole mobility (HTL) refers to the hole mobility of the first hole transporting layer 21 (HBL Hole Transporting Layer), the hole mobility (BEBL) refers to the hole mobility of the blue electron blocking layer 2322, and the hole mobility (R EBL) refers to the hole mobility of the red electron blocking layer 2321.

[0082] The light-emitting structure in the above embodiment includes only one light-emitting unit. In another embodiment, as shown in Figures 4 to 11, the light-emitting structure provided by the present application further includes a charge generation structure 5 and a second light-emitting unit 6. The charge generation structure 5 is disposed on the side of the first light-emitting unit 2 facing away from the first electrode 1, and the second light-emitting unit 6 is disposed on the side of the charge generation structure 5 facing away from the first electrode 1.

[0083] In this embodiment, a light-emitting structure is formed by connecting a charge generation structure 5 in series between two light-emitting units. Alternatively, a light-emitting structure may be formed by connecting three or more light-emitting units in series with a charge generation structure 5 between them. This embodiment is not limited to this.

[0084] The second light-emitting unit 6 includes a second hole transport layer 61, a second light-emitting layer 63 located between the second hole transport layer 61 and the first electron transport layer 25, and a second common electron blocking layer 62 located between the second hole transport layer 61 and the second light-emitting layer 63. The second light-emitting layer 63 includes three sub-light-emitting layers 231, at least one of which includes a material having thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties.

[0085] The charge generation structure 5 includes an N-type charge generation layer 51 and a P-type charge generation layer 52. The N-type charge generation layer 51 is disposed on the side of the first light-emitting unit 2 facing away from the first electrode 1, and the P-type charge generation layer 52 is disposed on the side of the N-type charge generation layer 51 facing away from the first electrode 1.

[0086] The N-type charge generation layer 51 can be formed by doping an electron transport material with an active metal having a low work function, such as Li, Ca, or Yb.

[0087] The P-type charge generation layer 52 can be formed by doping a hole transport material with a P-type dopant such as molybdenum oxide. The proportion of the P-type dopant in the P-type charge generation layer 52 must be higher than that in the hole injection layer 26 to facilitate charge generation.

[0088] In this embodiment, the structure of the second light-emitting unit 6 is the same as that of the first light-emitting unit 2 , and the materials constituting each film layer of the second light-emitting unit 6 may be consistent with or inconsistent with the materials of the first light-emitting unit 2 .

[0089] 7 to 10 , the first light-emitting layer 23 further includes an auxiliary light-emitting layer 233. The auxiliary light-emitting layer 233 is disposed between the sub-light-emitting layer 231 doped with thermally activated delayed fluorescence and the first common electron blocking layer 22. In the embodiment shown in FIG7 , a green auxiliary light-emitting layer 2331 is disposed below the green light-emitting layer 2312.

[0090] The thickness of the green auxiliary light-emitting layer 2331 is smaller than that of the green light-emitting layer 2312. The green auxiliary light-emitting layer 2331 includes a luminescent host material and a material having thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties, and the luminescent host material and the material having thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties are the same as those of the green light-emitting layer 2312.

[0091] As shown in FIG. 8 , in this embodiment, the red light emitting layer 2311 is doped with thermally activated delayed fluorescence, and thus a red auxiliary light emitting layer 2332 is provided under the red light emitting layer 2311 .

[0092] The thickness of the red auxiliary light-emitting layer 2332 is less than that of the red light-emitting layer 2311. The red auxiliary light-emitting layer 2332 includes a luminescent host material and a material having thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties, and the luminescent host material and the material having thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties are the same as those of the red light-emitting layer 2311.

[0093] As shown in FIG9 , in this embodiment, the red light emitting layer 2311 and the green light emitting layer 2312 are both thermally activated delayed fluorescence doped, so a red auxiliary light emitting layer 2332 and a green auxiliary light emitting layer 2331 are respectively disposed under the red light emitting layer 2311 and the green light emitting layer 2312 .

[0094] The properties of the red auxiliary light emitting layer 2332 and the green auxiliary light emitting layer 2331 have been described in the embodiment shown in FIG. 8 and will not be repeated here.

[0095] As shown in FIG10 , in this embodiment, all sub-light emitting layers 231 are doped with thermally activated delayed fluorescence, and thus auxiliary light emitting layers 233 are provided under each sub-light emitting layer 231. In this embodiment, the auxiliary light emitting layers 233 include a green auxiliary light emitting layer 2331, a red auxiliary light emitting layer 2332, and a blue auxiliary light emitting layer 2333.

[0096] The red auxiliary light-emitting layer 2332 and the green auxiliary light-emitting layer 2331 have been described in the above embodiments and will not be repeated here. Regarding the blue auxiliary light-emitting layer 2333, its thickness is less than that of the blue light-emitting layer 2313. The blue auxiliary light-emitting layer 2333 comprises a luminescent host material and a material having thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties. The luminescent host material and the material having thermally activated delayed fluorescence properties are the same as those of the blue light-emitting layer 2313.

[0097] As shown in FIG11 , in this embodiment, the red electron blocking layer 2321 includes a first blocking layer 2321a and a second blocking layer 2321b. The stacking of the first blocking layer 2321a and the second blocking layer 2321b to form the red electron blocking layer 2321 effectively increases the voltage of the red light-emitting layer 2311, reduces the voltage difference between the red light-emitting layer 2311 and the blue light-emitting layer 2313, improves crosstalk, improves the device efficiency of the red light-emitting layer 2311, and reduces the power consumption of the entire device.
