Abstract
Description
Organic compounds and organic light-emitting devices containing the same
[0001] The present invention relates to an organic compound and an organic light-emitting device comprising the same.
[0002] Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have a simpler structure than other flat panel displays such as liquid crystal displays (LCDs), plasma display panels (PDPs), and field emission displays (FEDs), and have various advantages in manufacturing processes. They also have high brightness and excellent viewing angle characteristics, a fast response speed, and low driving voltage. Therefore, they are being actively developed and commercialized for use as light sources for flat panel displays such as wall-mounted TVs, backlights for displays, lighting, and billboards.
[0003] Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) consist of an organic layer sandwiched between two electrodes. These devices utilize the principle that electrons and holes are injected into the light-emitting layer from the two electrodes, generating excitons through the combination of electrons and holes, and emitting light when the generated excitons drop from the excited state to the ground state.
[0004] An organic light-emitting device may include at least one light-emitting layer. Typically, an organic light-emitting device having multiple light-emitting layers includes light-emitting layers that emit light having different peak wavelengths, thereby enabling a specific color to be realized through a combination of light having different peak wavelengths.
[0005] These organic light-emitting devices can be divided into top-emitting and bottom-emitting devices. Top-emitting devices use a reflective cathode to emit light generated in the light-emitting layer toward a translucent anode. Conversely, bottom-emitting devices use a reflective anode to emit light generated in the light-emitting layer and reflected by the anode toward a transparent cathode toward the driving thin-film transistor.
[0006] Meanwhile, the biggest issues for organic electroluminescent devices are their lifespan and efficiency. As displays become larger, these efficiency and lifespan issues must be resolved. In organic electroluminescent devices, the characteristics of the components contained in each layer of the organic film layer, which is composed of one or more layers including a light-emitting layer between the anode and cathode, affect the driving voltage, luminous efficiency, and brightness of the device, and these characteristics have a significant impact on the device's lifespan.
[0007] Accordingly, research on the components contained in each layer of the organic film layer is being actively conducted.
[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a novel organic compound and an organic light-emitting device comprising the same.

[0269] [Experimental Example 1] Simulation Results
[0270] Experimental Example 1: Electron Transport Auxiliary Layer Simulation Results
[0271] The electron transport auxiliary layer plays a role in preventing holes from leaking to the light-emitting layer interface due to the difference in LUMO levels between the electron transport layer and the light-emitting layer. To this end, it is preferable that the LUMO energy difference with the light-emitting layer be greater than the LUMO energy difference with the electron transport layer.
[0272]
[0273] Experimental Example 2: Electron Transport Layer Simulation Results
[0274] The electron transport layer has an appropriate LUMO level between the electron transport auxiliary layer and the electron injection layer or between the emitting layer (if there is no electron transport auxiliary layer) and the electron injection layer, thereby allowing electrons to be transferred to the electron transport auxiliary layer or the emitting layer (if there is no electron transport auxiliary layer). To this end, it is preferable that the LUMO energy difference between the electron transport auxiliary layer or the emitting layer (if there is no electron transport auxiliary layer) be smaller than the LUMO energy difference between the electron injection layer and the electron transport auxiliary layer.

[0294] Next, a seal cap was bonded to the capping layer (CPL) using a UV-curable adhesive to protect the organic light-emitting device from oxygen (O2) or moisture in the air, thereby manufacturing an organic light-emitting device.
[0295] Examples 11 to 112 and Comparative Examples 3 and 4 were prepared in the same manner as in Example 30, except that the compounds of Table 30 and Comparative Compound 3 and Comparative Compound 4 were used instead of the compound of Example 11 as the electron transport auxiliary layer.
[0296]
[0297] For the organic light-emitting devices of Examples 11 to 112 and Comparative Examples 3 and 4, 10 mA / cm was measured using KONICA MINOLTA CS-2000. 2 The driving voltage (Op V) and efficiency (Cd / A) were measured by applying current, and 10 mA / cm was measured using McScience M6000. 2 The lifespan (LT95) was measured by checking the time it takes for the luminance to decrease from the initial luminance to 95% by constant current driving.
[0298] The measurement results are shown in Table 30 below.

[0302]
[0303] Referring to Table 30, it can be confirmed that the compound of the present invention has high efficiency and long life as a blue OLED device material.
[0304] For the comparative compound, it was confirmed that the efficiency and lifespan of the device were significantly reduced.
[0305] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and various modifications and improvements made by those skilled in the art using the basic concept of the present invention defined in the following claims also fall within the scope of the present invention.
