Description
Color-changing material, and ink, color-changing film, light-emitting device, and display device using the same
[0001] The present disclosure relates to a color conversion material, and an ink, a color conversion film, a light-emitting device, and a display device using the same.
[0002] One technique for multicoloring light from a light source is the color conversion method. The color conversion method is a method for multicoloring light by attaching a color conversion film containing a color conversion material that absorbs incident light and emits light with a wavelength distribution different from the absorption wavelength to a light source such as a light-emitting element. By combining such a color conversion film with a blue light source, red, green, and blue light can be obtained from the blue light source, and white light can also be obtained from these three primary colors. Therefore, color conversion materials can be applied to liquid crystal display devices, electroluminescence (EL) display devices, lighting devices, etc.
[0003] Known color conversion materials include inorganic fluorescent particles made of quantum dots, but color conversion materials using quantum dots are vulnerable to heat, water, and oxygen, making them difficult to handle and causing problems in the process, such as poor workability. Therefore, in recent years, techniques have been proposed that use organic materials as color conversion materials.
[0004] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a color-changing material composition containing a fluorescent dye consisting of a heteropolycyclic compound such as a phenylnaphthoxazole derivative and a benzofurano-1,2-naphthoquinone derivative, and a binder material. According to Patent Document 1, a color-changing film made from this color-changing material composition does not deteriorate in color-changing performance even when used for a long period of time, and does not suffer from the problem of the dye precipitating during storage, making the film unusable.

[0006] However, color-changing films manufactured using conventional organic color-changing materials have a problem in that their luminance decreases significantly over time, and their luminance life is not at a practical level even when applied to various devices such as light-emitting devices and display devices.

[0074] [1. Color conversion material] The color conversion material according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure contains a compound (A) having a fused aromatic hydrocarbon skeleton in which six or more rings are fused. The color conversion material of this embodiment is a color conversion material that converts incident light into light with a longer wavelength than the incident light, for example, a material that converts blue light from a light source into green light or red light.
[0075] The color conversion material of this embodiment has an excellent luminance life, and can therefore be suitably used as a color conversion material for light-emitting devices and display devices.
[0076] In a preferred embodiment, the color conversion material of this embodiment exhibits sufficient color conversion efficiency. Specifically, the color conversion efficiency of the color conversion material of this embodiment, as determined by the following method, at an excitation wavelength of 460 nm is preferably 20 to 100%, more preferably 40 to 100%, even more preferably 50 to 100%, particularly preferably more than 50% and 100% or less, particularly preferably 60 to 95%, and even more preferably 70 to 90%.
[0077] The color conversion efficiency of the color conversion material is evaluated using a film-like measurement sample having a certain thickness, as shown below.
[0078] The measurement sample is prepared by applying a solution containing a color conversion material to a synthetic quartz glass substrate by spin coating and drying it to form a color conversion layer on the synthetic quartz glass substrate. The solution used for spin coating is prepared by dissolving the color conversion material in an organic solvent such as xylene or toluene at a concentration of 1 to 3% by mass. The spin coating is performed at a rotation speed of 1000 to 4000 rpm so that the resulting film has a thickness of 100 nm after drying.
[0079] To evaluate the color conversion efficiency, an evaluation device (for example, an absolute PL quantum yield measurement device C9920-02 manufactured by Hamamatsu Photonics KK) is used. The evaluation device disperses light emitted from a xenon lamp, which is an excitation light source, causing a measurement sample placed in an integrating sphere to emit light. The light collected by the integrating sphere is wavelength-resolved and photometrically measured using a multichannel spectrometer to obtain an emission spectrum. To calculate the color conversion efficiency, first, a reference excitation light is measured using a synthetic quartz glass substrate without a color conversion layer, and then the sample emission and the unabsorbed remaining sample excitation light are measured from a sample (measurement sample) on which a color conversion layer is formed. Next, the number of photons of each light is determined based on the measurement results, and the color conversion material is calculated using the following formula (i):
[0080]
[0081] η: Color conversion efficiency m: Number of photons of excitation light irradiated onto the sample m': Number of photons of excitation light remaining without being absorbed n: Number of photons emitted from the sample as light

The atoms constituting this ring may contain a heteroatom selected from nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, phosphorus, and silicon. Furthermore, these rings may be fused with another ring.
[0222] The low molecular weight compound represented by formula (9) exhibits a high luminescence quantum yield and a small half-width of the emission spectrum, and therefore can achieve both efficient color conversion and high color purity. Furthermore, the low molecular weight compound represented by formula (9) can be obtained by combining an appropriate R 1 ~R 9 By having R, various characteristics and physical properties such as luminous efficiency, color purity, thermal stability, light stability, and dispersibility can be adjusted. 1 , R 3 , R 4 and R 6 Compared to when all are hydrogen, R 1 , R 3 , R 4 and R 6 When at least one of is an alkyl group, an aryl group, or a heteroaryl group, the compound exhibits higher thermal stability and light stability.
[0223] R 1 , R 3 , R 4 and R 6 When at least one of the groups is an alkyl group, the alkyl group is preferably an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as a methyl group, an ethyl group, an n-propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, a sec-butyl group, a tert-butyl group, a pentyl group, or a hexyl group. Of these, from the viewpoint of improving thermal stability, the alkyl group is preferably a methyl group, an ethyl group, an n-propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, a sec-butyl group, or a tert-butyl group. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of preventing concentration quenching and improving luminescence quantum yield, the alkyl group is preferably a sterically bulky tert-butyl group. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of ease of synthesis and ease of raw material availability, the alkyl group is preferably a methyl group.

[0226] R 1 , R 3 , R 4 and R 6 In view of increasing the solubility in a solvent, it is preferable that each of the alkyl groups is an alkyl group. In this case, it is preferable that the alkyl group is a methyl group in view of ease of synthesis and availability of raw materials.
[0227] R 1 , R 3 , R 4 and R 6 is preferably an aryl group or a heteroaryl group, more preferably an aryl group, from the viewpoint of obtaining high thermal stability and light stability.
[0228] Although some substituents improve multiple properties, only a limited number of substituents exhibit sufficient performance in all areas. It is particularly difficult to achieve both high luminous efficiency and high color purity. Therefore, by introducing multiple types of substituents into the low-molecular-weight compound represented by formula (9), it is possible to obtain a compound with a well-balanced luminous property, color purity, etc.
[0229] In particular, R 1 , R 3 , R 4 and R 6 are all aryl groups, for example, R 1 ≠R 4 , R 3 ≠R 6 , R 1 ≠R 3 or R 4 ≠R 6 For example, R 1 , R 3 , R 4 and R 6are preferably not the same groups. Here, "≠" indicates that they are groups with different structures. For example, R 1 ≠R 4 is R 1 and R 4 This means that the low molecular weight compound represented by formula (9) has both an aryl group that affects color purity and an aryl group that affects luminous efficiency, allowing for fine adjustment.
[0230] Among them, R 1 ≠R 3 or R 4 ≠R 6 In this case, one or more aryl groups that affect the color purity can be introduced into the pyrrole rings on both sides of the low molecular weight compound represented by formula (9), and aryl groups that affect the luminous efficiency can be introduced into other positions, so that both of these properties can be improved to the maximum. 1 ≠R 3 or R 4 ≠R 6 In this case, from the viewpoint of improving both heat resistance and color purity, R 1 =R 6 and R 3 =R 4 It is more preferable that:
[0231] The aryl group that mainly affects color purity is preferably an aryl group substituted with an electron-donating group. In organic electronics theory, an electron-donating group is an atomic group that donates electrons to the substituted atomic group due to the inductive effect or resonance effect. Examples of electron-donating groups include those whose Hammett's rule substituent constant (σp(para)) takes a negative value. The Hammett's rule substituent constant (σp(para)) can be cited from the Revised 5th Edition of the Basic Chemistry Handbook (II-380 pages).
[0232] Specific examples of the electron-donating group include an alkyl group (σp of a methyl group: −0.17), an alkoxy group (σp of a methoxy group: −0.27), and an amino group (—NH 2Examples include σp of -0.66). The electron-donating group is preferably an alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms or an alkoxy group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, and more preferably a methyl group, an ethyl group, a tert-butyl group, or a methoxy group. Among these, from the viewpoints of improving dispersibility and preventing quenching due to aggregation of molecules, the electron-donating group is preferably a tert-butyl group or a methoxy group. Furthermore, mainly from the viewpoint of improving luminous efficiency, the electron-donating group is preferably a bulky group such as a tert-butyl group or a methoxy group.
[0233] The substitution position of the electron-donating group in the aryl group is preferably the meta or para position relative to the bond position with the pyrromethene skeleton, since it is necessary to suppress bond twisting in order to enhance the photostability of the low-molecular-weight compound represented by formula (9).
[0234] R 1 , R 3 , R 4 and R 6 When all of R are aryl groups, 1 , R 3 , R 4 and R 6 is preferably a phenyl group. 1 , R 3 , R 4 and R 6 are more preferably selected from the following Ar-1 to Ar-6. 1 , R 3 , R 4 and R 6 The combination is not particularly limited.
[0235]
[0236] R 2 and R 5 is preferably a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a carbonyl group, an oxycarbonyl group, or an aryl group. Among these, from the viewpoint of obtaining high thermal stability, R 2 and R 5 is preferably hydrogen or an alkyl group. From the viewpoint of easily obtaining a narrow half-width in the emission spectrum, R 2and R 5 is preferably a hydrogen atom.
[0237] R 8 and R 9 is preferably an alkyl group, an aryl group, a heteroaryl group, an alkoxy group, an aryloxy group, a fluorine atom, a fluorine-containing alkyl group, a fluorine-containing heteroaryl group, a fluorine-containing aryl group, a fluorine-containing alkoxy group, a fluorine-containing aryloxy group, or a cyano group. Among these, R is preferred because it is stable to excitation light and can provide a higher fluorescence quantum yield. 8 and R 9 is preferably a fluorine atom, a cyano group, or a fluorine-containing aryl group. 8 and R 9 is preferably a fluorine atom or a cyano group. 8 and R 9 Preferably, one or both of the groups is a cyano group.
[0238] Here, the fluorine-containing aryl group is an aryl group containing fluorine, such as a fluorophenyl group, a trifluoromethylphenyl group, and a pentafluorophenyl group. The fluorine-containing heteroaryl group is a heteroaryl group containing fluorine, such as a fluoropyridyl group, a trifluoromethylpyridyl group, and a trifluoropyridyl group. The fluorine-containing alkyl group is an alkyl group containing fluorine, such as a trifluoromethyl group and a pentafluoroethyl group.
[0239] In addition, in formula (9), X is C-R 7 From the viewpoint of light stability, it is preferable that X is C—R 7 When the formula (9) is a formula (9), the decrease in the luminescence intensity over time of the low molecular weight compound represented by the formula (9) can be suppressed by the substituent R 7 Specifically, R 7 When R is hydrogen, this site is highly reactive and easily reacts with moisture and oxygen in the air. This causes the decomposition of the low molecular weight compound represented by formula (9). 7When R is a substituent with a large degree of freedom of movement of the molecular chain, such as an alkyl group, the reactivity decreases, but the low molecular weight compound represented by formula (9) aggregates over time in the color-changing film described later, resulting in a decrease in luminescence intensity due to concentration quenching. 7 is preferably a group that is rigid and has a small degree of freedom of movement, making it unlikely to cause aggregation, and specifically is preferably an aryl group or a heteroaryl group.
[0240] From the viewpoints of providing a higher fluorescence quantum yield, being less susceptible to thermal decomposition, and photostability, X is preferably C-R 7 and R 7 is preferably an aryl group. The aryl group is preferably a phenyl group, a biphenyl group, a terphenyl group, a naphthyl group, a fluorenyl group, a phenanthryl group, or an anthracenyl group, in order not to impair the emission wavelength.
[0241] Furthermore, in order to enhance the photostability of the low molecular weight compound represented by formula (9), R 7 It is necessary to moderately suppress the twisting of the carbon-carbon bond of the pyrromethene skeleton. 7 If the twist of the carbon-carbon bond of the pyrromethene skeleton is too large, the reactivity to excitation light increases, and the photostability decreases. 7 is preferably a phenyl group, a biphenyl group, a terphenyl group, or a naphthyl group, more preferably a phenyl group, a biphenyl group, or a terphenyl group, and even more preferably a phenyl group.
[0242] Also, R 7 is preferably a suitably bulky substituent from the viewpoint of suppressing molecular aggregation and improving luminous efficiency and durability.
[0243] More preferred examples of such bulky substituents include R 7 The structure is as follows.
[0244]
[0245] In formula (10), r is selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, a heterocyclic group, an alkenyl group, a cycloalkenyl group, an alkynyl group, a hydroxyl group, a thiol group, an alkoxy group, an alkylthio group, an aryloxy group, an arylthio group, an aryl group, a heteroaryl group, a halogen atom, a cyano group, an aldehyde group, a carbonyl group, a carboxyl group, an oxycarbonyl group, a carbamoyl group, an amino group, a nitro group, a silyl group, a siloxanyl group, a boryl group, a sulfonic acid group, and a phosphine oxide group. These groups may have a substituent. k is an integer of 1 to 3. When k is 2 or more, multiple r's may be the same or different.
[0246] From the viewpoint of being able to provide a higher luminescence quantum yield, r is preferably an aryl group. Among these aryl groups, particularly preferred examples include a phenyl group and a naphthyl group. When r is an aryl group, k in formula (10) is preferably 1 or 2, and more preferably 2 from the viewpoint of further suppressing molecular aggregation. Furthermore, when k is 2 or more, at least one of r is preferably substituted with an alkyl group, and more preferably substituted with a methyl group, an ethyl group, or a tert-butyl group from the viewpoint of thermal stability.
[0247] From the viewpoints of controlling the fluorescence wavelength or absorption wavelength and improving compatibility with solvents, r is preferably an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, or a halogen atom, and more preferably a methyl group, an ethyl group, a tert-butyl group, or a methoxy group. From the viewpoints of improving dispersibility and preventing quenching due to molecular aggregation, r is preferably a tert-butyl group or a methoxy group.
[0248] In addition, as another embodiment of the low molecular weight compound represented by formula (9), R 1 ~R 7 It is preferred that at least one of R is an electron-withdrawing group. 1 ~R 6 At least one of R is an electron-withdrawing group; 7 is an electron-withdrawing group; or R 1 ~R 6At least one of R is an electron-withdrawing group, and 7 is an electron-withdrawing group. By introducing an electron-withdrawing group into the pyrromethene skeleton of the low-molecular-weight compound represented by formula (9), the electron density of the pyrromethene skeleton can be significantly reduced. This further improves the stability of the compound against oxygen, and as a result, the durability of the low-molecular-weight compound represented by formula (9) can be further improved.
[0249] An electron-withdrawing group, also known as an electron-accepting group, is an atomic group that attracts electrons from a substituted atomic group due to an inductive effect or a resonance effect in organic electronics. Examples of electron-withdrawing groups include those whose Hammett's substituent constant (σp(para)) is a positive value. The Hammett's substituent constant (σp(para)) can be cited from the revised 5th edition of the Basic Chemistry Handbook (page II-380). Note that, although there are examples in which a phenyl group also takes a positive value as described above, in the present disclosure, phenyl groups are not included in the electron-withdrawing groups.
[0250] Examples of the electron-withdrawing group include -F (σp: +0.06), -Cl (σp: +0.23), -Br (σp: +0.23), -I (σp: +0.18), and -CO 2 R 12 (σp:R 12 is an ethyl group, +0.45), -CONH 2 (σp: +0.38), -COR 12 (σp:R 12 is a methyl group, +0.49), -CF 3 (σp: +0.50), -SO 2 R 12 (σp:R 12 is a methyl group, +0.69), and -NO 2 (σp: +0.81) and the like. 12 each independently represents a hydrogen atom, an aromatic hydrocarbon group having 6 to 30 ring carbon atoms, a heterocyclic group having 5 to 30 ring atoms, an alkyl group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms, or a cycloalkyl group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms.
[0251] In formula (9), R 2 and R 5 It is preferable that at least one of R in formula (9) is an electron-withdrawing group.2 and R 5 is a substitution position that greatly affects the electron density of the pyrromethene skeleton, and R 2 and R 5 By introducing an electron-withdrawing group into the compound, the electron density of the pyrromethene skeleton can be efficiently reduced, and the stability against oxygen can be further improved, thereby further improving durability.
[0252] Furthermore, in formula (9), R 2 and R 5 is more preferably an electron-withdrawing group, because this further improves the stability of the low-molecular-weight compound represented by formula (9) against oxygen, thereby significantly improving durability.
[0253] The electron-withdrawing group is preferably a group containing a fluorine atom, which can further reduce the electron density of the pyrromethene skeleton, improve the stability of the low-molecular-weight compound represented by formula (9) against oxygen, and improve durability.
[0254] Preferred electron-withdrawing groups include fluorine, a fluorine-containing aryl group, a fluorine-containing heteroaryl group, a fluorine-containing alkyl group, an acyl group, an oxycarbonyl group, an amide group, a sulfonyl group, a sulfonate ester group, a sulfonamide group, and a cyano group. These electron-withdrawing groups are preferred because they are difficult to chemically decompose.
[0255] More preferred electron-withdrawing groups include fluorine-containing alkyl groups, acyl groups, oxycarbonyl groups, amide groups, sulfonyl groups, sulfonate ester groups, sulfonamide groups, and cyano groups.

The mobile phase for HPLC was an acetonitrile / tetrahydrofuran mixture, the ratio of which was varied from 100 / 0 to 0 / 100 (volume ratio), and the mixture was run at a flow rate of 1.0 mL / min. The column used was a Kaseisorb LC ODS 2000 (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) or an ODS column with equivalent performance. The detector used was a photodiode array detector (Shimadzu Corporation, product name: SPD-M20A).
[0347] <LC-MS> LC-MS was measured using the following method. The sample to be measured was dissolved in chloroform or tetrahydrofuran to a concentration of approximately 2 mg / mL, and approximately 1 μL was injected into an LC-MS (Agilent Technologies, Inc., product name: 1100LCMSD). The mobile phase for LC-MS was a mixture of acetonitrile and tetrahydrofuran, varying in ratio, at a flow rate of 0.2 mL / min. The column used was an L-column 2 ODS (3 μm) column (Chemicals Evaluation and Research Institute, Inc., inner diameter 2.1 mm, length 100 mm, particle size 3 μm).
[0348] <TLC-MS> TLC-MS was measured by the following method. The measurement sample was dissolved at an arbitrary concentration in either toluene, tetrahydrofuran, or chloroform, and applied to a DART TLC plate (manufactured by Techno Applications, product name: YSK5-100), followed by measurement using a TLC-MS (manufactured by JEOL Ltd., product name: JMS-T100TD (The AccuTOF TLC)). The helium gas temperature during measurement was adjusted in the range of 200 to 400°C.
[0349] <Evaluation of Luminance Life> (Apparatus for Evaluating Luminance Life) Luminance life was evaluated by irradiating excitation light from the synthetic quartz glass substrate side of the measurement sample described below, causing the measurement sample to emit light. As the excitation light source, a laser diode NDB4216E (wavelength 450-460 nm) manufactured by Nichia Corporation was used, and as the laser driver, an ALP-7033CC manufactured by DATA SYSTEM was used. To measure the light emitted from the measurement sample, a chromatic luminance meter CHROMA METER CS-200 manufactured by Konica Minolta, Inc. was used as an emission luminance measuring device. A short-wavelength non-transmitting filter was installed at the photometric entrance of the emission luminance measuring device to prevent light with a wavelength of 470 nm or less from being measured.
[0350] (Adjustment of Excitation Light Intensity of Excitation Light Source) In the evaluation of luminance life, the excitation light intensity of the excitation light source was adjusted so that the number of photons absorbed by each measurement sample, which will be described later, was the same.
[0351] In order to calculate the conditions under which the number of photons absorbed by each measurement sample is the same, formulas (I), (II), and (III) were used.
[0352] First, the number of photons absorbed by the measurement sample can be calculated from formula (I) assuming that the organic compound layer (color conversion layer) has the same thickness.
[0353]
[0354] n ex-ab is the number of absorbed photons, I ex is the intensity of the excitation light incident on the organic compound layer contained in the measurement sample, and I' ex is the intensity of the excitation light transmitted through the organic compound layer, and ε ph-ex represents the energy per photon at the excitation light wavelength, and T represents the transmittance. Here, the transmittance represented by T was measured using a Cary Series manufactured by Agilent Technologies, Inc. Specifically, measurements were taken in 1-nm steps over a wavelength range of 300 to 700 nm, and T was calculated from the simple average value of the measurement data over a wavelength range of 453 to 458 nm.
[0355] Second, under the above conditions, n represents the number of photons absorbed calculated from formula (I). ex-ab must be the same (constant). In other words, formula (II) is required.
[0356]
[0357] By substituting Equation (II) into Equation (I) and rearranging the constants, Equation (III) is obtained, and the excitation light intensity can be determined from the transmittance of the measurement sample at the excitation light wavelength. That is, if the const. in Equation (III) is kept constant, the transmittance T is used to determine the value I at which the number of photons absorbed by each measurement sample is the same. ex can be calculated.
[0358]
[0359] For example, if a measurement sample has a transmittance T1 = 0.2 (20%) and the excitation light intensity is I ex When the light emission is measured with I = 200 mW, the excitation light intensity for measurement using another measurement sample with transmittance T = 0.25 (25%) and the same number of absorbed photons is calculated as follows: ex=(1-0.2) / (1-0.25)×200=213.3(mW)

[0529] When the color conversion efficiency of the measurement sample 25 was measured at an excitation wavelength of 460 nm, the color conversion efficiency was 53%.
[0530] Comparative Measurement Example 5 Measurement of Luminance Lifetime A 2.4 mass % xylene solution of polymer compound P13 and 3% low molecular weight compound M2 was prepared in the same manner as in Example 11.
[0531] A measurement sample 26 was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the xylene solution obtained above was used, and the luminance life was evaluated.
[0532] When the luminance of the measurement sample 26 is measured at an excitation light intensity at which the amount of photon absorption becomes constant with that of the measurement sample 1, it is 639 cd / m 2 Thereafter, the measurement sample 26 was allowed to continuously emit light while maintaining the excitation light intensity constant, and "LT60" was measured. The results are shown in Table 2.
[0533] When the color conversion efficiency of the measurement sample 26 was measured at an excitation wavelength of 460 nm, the color conversion efficiency was 58%.

[0535] These results show that the color conversion material containing compound (A) having a fused aromatic hydrocarbon skeleton with six or more fused rings has a longer luminance life than any of the color conversion materials containing fused heterocyclic compounds having fewer than six fused rings, fused heterocyclic compounds having six or more fused rings, and compounds having a fused aromatic hydrocarbon skeleton with fewer than six fused rings.
[0536] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a color conversion material having excellent luminance life can be provided. Therefore, by applying such a color conversion material to a light-emitting device, it is possible to improve the stability of light emission. Furthermore, such a light-emitting device is suitable for a display device.
