[0001] P24-177 Sc - 1 - Organic light-emitting device Subject-matter of the invention The present invention relates to an organic electronic device especially an organic light- 5 emitting device comprising a light-emitting layer comprising a triazine of formula (1) and at least a hole-transporting host material selected from formulae (2), (3), or (4), and to a mixture of said host materials. Background of the invention 10 The structure of organic electroluminescent devices (e.g. OLEDs – organic light-emitting diodes or OLECs – organic light-emitting electrochemical cells) in which organic semiconductors are used as functional materials has long been known. Emitting materials used here, aside from fluorescent emitters, are increasingly organometallic complexes which exhibit phosphorescence rather than fluorescence. In general terms, 15 however, there is still a need for improvement in OLEDs, especially also in OLEDs which exhibit triplet emission (phosphorescence), for example with regard to efficiency, operating voltage and lifetime. The properties of organic electroluminescent devices are not only determined by the 20 emitters used. Also of particular significance here are especially the other materials used, such as host and matrix materials, hole blocker materials, electron transport materials, hole transport materials and electron or exciton blocker materials, and among these especially the host or matrix materials. Improvements to these materials can lead to distinct improvements to electroluminescent devices. 25 Host materials for use in organic electronic devices are well known to the person skilled in the art. The term "matrix material" is also frequently used in the prior art when what is meant is a host material for phosphorescent emitters. This use of the term is also applicable to the present invention. In the meantime, a multitude of host materials has 30 been developed both for fluorescent and for phosphorescent electronic devices. A further means of improving the performance data of electronic devices, especially of organic electroluminescent devices, is to use combinations of two or more materials, especially host materials or matrix materials. 35 WO23247663 A1 and CN115626914 A describe specific host materials for organic light- emitting devices. P24-177 Sc - 2 - However, there is still need for improvement in the case of use of these materials or in the case of use of mixtures of the materials, especially in relation to efficiency, operating voltage and / or lifetime of the organic electroluminescent device. 5 The capacitance of a device is an important parameter with regard to the achievable switching times of the device. As modern OLED screens are operated at ever higher refresh rates (from 60Hz in the past to 120Hz or even 240Hz today), short switching times of OLED devices are essential. An important prerequisite for this is the lowest possible capacitance, both with regard to the operating voltage of the onset of the 10 capacitance curve (beyond the level of the geometric capacitance) and with regard to the maximum capacitance signal. The problem addressed by the present invention is therefore that of providing a combination of host materials which are suitable for use in an organic electroluminescent 15 device, especially in a phosphorescent OLED, and lead to good device properties, especially with regard to an improved lifetime and / or a low operating voltage and / or a good capacitance, and that of providing the corresponding electroluminescent device. It has now been found that this problem is solved, and the disadvantages from the prior 20 art are eliminated, by the combination of at least one compound of the formula (1) as first host material and at least one hole-transporting compound of the formula (2) or of the formula (3), or of the formula (4) as second host material in a light-emitting layer of an organic electroluminescent device. The use of such a material combination for production of the light-emitting layer in an organic electroluminescent device leads to 25 very good properties of these devices, especially with regard to lifetime, especially with equal or improved efficiency and / or operating voltage. The advantages are especially also manifested in the presence of a light-emitting component in the emission layer, especially in the case of combination with emitters or in combination with arylamines, e.g. of the formulae (I-A) or (I-B) or preferred embodiments thereof in the hole injection 30 layer and / or hole transport layer and / or electron blocking layer. 35 P24-177 Sc - 3 - Summary of the invention The present invention therefore first provides an organic light-emitting device comprising an anode, a cathode and at least one organic layer containing at least one light-emitting layer, wherein the at least one light-emitting layer contains at least one compound of the 5 formula (1) as host material 1 and at least one compound of the formulae (2), (3), or (4) as host material 2, 1 1 2 2 3 3 P24-177 Sc - 4 - 5 formula (4), 10 where the symbols and indices used are as follows: [R]m, [R]n, [R]o, [R]p stands on each occurrence identically or differently for a mono- subsitution, a di-substitution, a tri-substitution, a maximum possible substitution with the substituent R, or for no-substitution; R stands for D, CN, a straight or branched alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon 15 atoms, a heteroaryl group which has 5 to 30 ring atoms or an aryl group which has 6 to 30 carbon atoms and both heteroaryl or aryl group may be substituted by one or more R# radicals; R# stands for D, F, CN, phenyl or partially or fully deuterated phenyl; Ar is an aryl group having 6 to 24 carbon atoms or a heteroaryl group which has 20 10 to 40 ring atoms and both aryl or heteroaryl group may be substituted by one or more R# radicals; Ar1, Ar2 at each instance are the same or different and are an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system which has 5 to 40 ring atoms and may be substituted by one or more R# radicals; 25 R6at each instance is the same or different and is D, F, CN, a straight-chain alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms or an alkenyl or alkynyl group having 2 to 20 carbon atoms or a branched or cyclic alkyl group having 3 to 20 carbon atoms, where the alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl group may in each case be substituted by one or more R7radicals and where one or more 30 nonadjacent CH2 groups may be replaced by Si(R7)2, C=O, NR7, O, S or CONR7, or an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system which has 5 to 60 ring atoms and which may be partially or completely deuterated in each case; it is also possible here for two R6radicals together to form an aromatic, heteroaromatic, aliphatic, or heteroaliphatic ring system; 35 Ar5 is the same or different at each instance and is an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system which has 5 to 40 ring atoms and may be substituted by one or more R7radicals; P24-177 Sc - 5 - R7is the same or different at each instance and is D, F, Cl, Br, I, N(R8)2, CN, NO2, OR8, SR8, Si(R8)3, B(OR8)2, C(=O)R8, P(=O)(R8)2, S(=O)R8, S(=O)2R8, OSO2R8, a straight-chain alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms or an alkenyl or alkynyl group having 2 to 20 carbon atoms or a branched or cyclic 5 alkyl group having 3 to 20 carbon atoms, where the alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl group may in each case be substituted by one or more R8radicals and where one or more nonadjacent CH2 groups may be replaced by Si(R8)2, C=O, NR8, O, S or CONR8, or an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system which has 5 to 40 ring atoms and which may be partially or completely 10 deuterated in each case; at the same time, two or more R7radicals together may form an aromatic, heteroaromatic, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic ring system; R8is the same or different at each instance and is H, D, F or an aliphatic, aromatic or heteroaromatic organic radical, especially a hydrocarbyl radical, 15 having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, in which one or more hydrogen atoms may also be replaced by F; R9is the same or different at each instance and is H, D, F, Cl, Br, I, N(R8)2, CN, NO2, OR8, SR8, Si(R8)3, B(OR8)2, C(=O)R8, P(=O)(R8)2, S(=O)R8, S(=O)2R8, OSO2R8, a straight-chain alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms or an 20 alkenyl or alkynyl group having 2 to 20 carbon atoms or a branched or cyclic alkyl group having 3 to 20 carbon atoms, where the alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl group may in each case be substituted by one or more R6radicals and where one or more nonadjacent CH2 groups may be replaced by Si(R8)2, C=O, NR8, O, S or CONR8, or an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring system 25 which has 5 to 40 ring atoms and may be substituted in each case by one or more R6radicals; at the same time, two or more R9radicals together may form an aromatic, heteroaromatic, aliphatic or heteroaliphatic ring system; s is the same or different at each instance and is 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4; t is the same or different at each instance and is 0, 1, 2 or 3; 30 u is the same or different at each instance and is 0, 1 or 2, with the proviso that at least one R6in formulae (2), (3), and (4) is D or at least one Ar5 is a deuterated substituent.

The photoluminescence spectrum of the layer is recorded, for example, with a commercial photoluminescence spectrometer. 35 The photoluminescence spectrum of the emitter chosen is generally measured in oxygen-free solution, 10-5molar, at room temperature, a suitable solvent being any in which the chosen emitter dissolves in the concentration mentioned. Particularly suitable solvents are typically toluene or 2-methyl-THF, but also dichloromethane. Measurement P24-177 Sc - 96 - is effected with a commercial photoluminescence spectrometer. The triplet energy T1in eV is determined from the photoluminescence spectra of the emitters. First the peak maximum Plmax. (in nm) of the photoluminescence spectrum is determined. The peak maximum Plmax. (in nm) is then converted to eV by: E(T1in eV) = 1240 / E(T1in nm) = 5 1240 / PLmax. (in nm). Preferred phosphorescent emitters are accordingly yellow emitters, preferably of the formula (I) or from table 6, the triplet energy T1 of which is preferably ~2.3 eV to ~2.1 eV. 10 Preferred phosphorescent emitters are accordingly green emitters, preferably of the formula (I) or from table 6, the triplet energy T1 of which is preferably ~2.5 eV to ~2.3 eV. Particularly preferred phosphorescent emitters are accordingly green emitters, preferably of the formula (I) or from table 6 as described above, the triplet energy T1 of which is 15 preferably ~2.5 eV to ~2.3 eV. Most preferably, green emitters, preferably of the formula (I) or from table 6, as described above, are selected for the mixture of the invention or emitting layer of the invention. 20 It is also possible for fluorescent emitters to be present in the light-emitting layer of the device of the invention or in the mixture of the invention. Preferred fluorescent emitting compounds are selected from the class of the arylamines, where preferably at least one of the aromatic or heteroaromatic ring systems of the 25 arylamine is a fused ring system, more preferably having at least 14 ring atoms. Preferred examples of these are aromatic anthraceneamines, aromatic anthracenediamines, aromatic pyreneamines, aromatic pyrenediamines, aromatic chryseneamines or aromatic chrysenediamines. An aromatic anthraceneamine is understood to mean a compound in which a diarylamino group is bonded directly to an 30 anthracene group, preferably in the 9 position. An aromatic anthracenediamine is understood to mean a compound in which two diarylamino groups are bonded directly to an anthracene group, preferably in the 9,10 positions. Aromatic pyreneamines, pyrenediamines, chryseneamines and chrysenediamines are defined analogously, where the diarylamino groups are bonded to the pyrene preferably in the 1 position or 35 1,6 positions. Further preferred emitting compounds are indenofluoreneamines or - diamines, benzoindenofluoreneamines or -diamines, and dibenzoindenofluoreneamines or -diamines, and indenofluorene derivatives having fused aryl groups. Likewise preferred are pyrenearylamines. Likewise preferred are benzoindenofluoreneamines, benzofluoreneamines, extended benzoindenofluorenes, phenoxazines, and fluorene P24-177 Sc - 97 - derivatives joined to furan units or to thiophene units. The light-emitting device or the mixture of the invention may additionally also comprise materials that exhibit TADF (thermally activated delayed fluorescence). 5 In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the at least one light-emitting layer of the organic electroluminescent device may have three or four different matrix materials, preferably three different matrix materials. These corresponding mixed matrix systems may consist of the matrix materials described for the host material 1 and the host material 2, but they may also comprise, as a third or fourth matrix material, for example 10 alongside a host material 1 or host material 2, wide-band-gap materials, bipolar host materials, electron transport materials (ETM) or hole transport materials (HTM).

Preference is further given to conductive doped organic materials, especially 25 conductive doped polymers. In addition, the anode may also consist of two or more layers, for example of an inner layer of ITO and an outer layer of a metal oxide, preferably tungsten oxide, molybdenum oxide or vanadium oxide. The organic electroluminescent device of the invention, in the course of production, is 30 appropriately (according to the application) structured, contact-connected and finally sealed, since the lifetime of the devices of the invention is shortened in the presence of water and / or air. The production of the device of the invention is not restricted here. It is possible that one 35 or more organic layers, including the light-emitting layer, are coated by a sublimation method. In this case, the materials are applied by vapor deposition in vacuum sublimation systems at an initial pressure of less than 10-5mbar, preferably less than 10- 6mbar. In this case, however, it is also possible that the initial pressure is even lower, for example less than 10-7mbar. P24-177 Sc - 125 - The organic electroluminescent device of the invention is preferably characterized in that one or more layers are coated by the OVPD (organic vapor phase deposition) method or with the aid of a carrier gas sublimation. In this case, the materials are applied at a 5 pressure between 10-5mbar and 1 bar. A special case of this method is the OVJP (organic vapor jet printing) method, in which the materials are applied directly by a nozzle and thus structured. The organic electroluminescent device of the invention is further preferably characterized 10 in that one or more organic layers comprising the composition of the invention are produced from solution, for example by spin-coating, or by any printing method, for example screen printing, flexographic printing, nozzle printing or offset printing, but more preferably LITI (light-induced thermal imaging, thermal transfer printing) or inkjet printing. For this purpose, soluble host materials 1 and 2 and phosphorescent emitters are 15 needed. Processing from solution has the advantage that, for example, the light-emitting layer can be applied in a very simple and inexpensive manner. This technique is especially suitable for the mass production of organic electroluminescent devices. In addition, hybrid methods are possible, in which, for example, one or more layers are 20 applied from solution and one or more further layers are applied by vapor deposition. These methods are known in general terms to those skilled in the art and can be applied to organic electroluminescent devices. 25 The invention therefore further provides a process for producing the organic electroluminescent device of the invention as described above or described as preferred, characterized in that the organic layer, preferably the light-emitting layer, the hole injection layer and / or hole transport layer, is applied by gas phase deposition, especially by a sublimation method and / or by an OVPD (organic vapor phase deposition) method 30 and / or with the aid of a carrier gas sublimation, or from solution, especially by spin- coating or by a printing method. In the case of production by means of gas phase deposition, there are in principle two ways in which the organic layer, preferably the light-emitting layer, of the invention can 35 be applied or vapor-deposited onto any substrate or the prior layer. Firstly, the materials used can each be initially charged in a material source and ultimately evaporated from the different material sources ("co-evaporation"). Secondly, the various materials can be premixed (premix systems) and the mixture can be initially charged in a single material source from which it is ultimately evaporated ("premix evaporation"). In this way, it is P24-177 Sc - 126 - possible in a simple and rapid manner to achieve the vapor deposition of the light- emitting layer with homogeneous distribution of the components without the need for precise actuation of a multitude of material sources. 5 The following methods are possible: A process for producing the organic electroluminescent device of the invention as described above or described as preferred, characterized in that the organic layer, preferably the light-emitting layer, the electron transport layer and / or hole blocker layer, is applied by gas phase deposition, especially by a sublimation method and / or by an 10 OVPD (organic vapor phase deposition) method and / or with the aid of a carrier gas sublimation, or from solution, especially by spin-coating or by a printing method. A process for producing the organic electroluminescent device of the invention, as described above or described as preferred, characterized in that the light-emitting layer 15 of the organic layer is applied by gas phase deposition, wherein the at least host material 1 is deposited from the gas phase together with the host material 2 and further materials that form the light-emitting layer, successively or simultaneously from at least two material sources. 20 A process for producing the device of the invention, characterized in that the light- emitting layer of the organic layer is applied by gas phase deposition, wherein the at least one host material 1 and the at least one host material 2 is deposited from the gas phase together as premix, successively or simultaneously with the light-emitting materials selected from the group of the phosphorescent emitters, fluorescent emitters 25 and / or emitters that exhibit TADF (thermally activated delayed fluorescence).

Production of the OLEDs Production of vapor processed OLED devices 30 The use of the material combinations according to the invention in OLEDs is presented in the following examples Ex1 to Ex14 (see Tables 8 and 9). Glass plaques coated with a structured ITO (indium tin oxide) anode of thickness 50 nm are treated with an oxygen plasma, followed by an argon plasma before coating. These 35 plasma treated glass plaques form the substrates to which the OLEDs layers are applied. The OLEDs basically have the following layer structure: substrate / hole injection layer (HIL) / hole transport layer (HTL) / electron blocking layer (EBL) / emission layer (EML) / hole blocking layer (HBL) / electron transport layer (ETL) / electron injection layer (EIL) P24-177 Sc - 151 - and finally a cathode. For BE devices the cathode is formed by a thermal evaporation of a layer of aluminium with a total thickness of 100nm. All materials are applied by thermal vapour deposition in a vacuum chamber. The 5 emission layer here always consists of at least one matrix material and one emitting dopant, which is mixed with the matrix material or matrix materials in a certain proportion by volume by co-evaporation. An expression such as E1:H1:TEG1 (27%:65%:8%) here means that material E1 is present in the layer in a proportion by volume of 27%, material H1 is present in the layer in a proportion by volume of 65%, and material TEG1 is pres- 10 ent in the layer in a proportion by volume of 8%. Analogously, the electron-transport layer and hole-injection layer may also consist of a mixture of two or more materials. The detailed stack sequence with respect to the purely organic layers is shown in Table 8. The materials used for the OLED fabrication are presented in Table 10, unless 15 previously described. The OLED devices are characterized by standard methods. For this purpose, electroluminescence spectra and current-voltage-luminance (IVL) characteristics are measured, from which the external quantum efficiency (EQE) is calculated. The 20 calculation is performed assuming Lambertian emission characteristics. EQE10 and U10 denote the external quantum efficiency (EQE) and device driving voltage (U) measured at a current density of 10 mA / cm². The lifetime LT is defined as the time in hours (h) after which the luminance drops from 25 the starting luminance (L0) in cd / m² to a certain luminance L1 in cd / m² in the course of operation with constant current j0. A figure of L1 / L0=90% means that the lifetime reported in the LT column corresponds to the time after which the starting luminance (L0) falls to 90% of its starting value. 30 For every example (Ex), a relative EQE (Rel. EQE10) and a relative LT (Rel. LT) is calculated in comparison to the corresponding comparative example (V) by using the following formulae: Rel. EQE10 (Ex) = EQE10 (Ex) / EQE10 (V) Rel. LT (Ex) = LT (Ex) / LT (V) 35 The performance data of the OLEDs are summarized in Table 9. For every example, the corresponding comparative example is specified in Table 9. Use of mixtures according to the invention in OLEDs P24-177 Sc - 152 - The material combinations according to the invention can be used in the emission layer in phosphorescent green OLEDs. The inventive examples show a significantly increased lifetime while the external quantum efficiency is at a roughly constant level. 5 Table 8: 10 15 20 25 30 35 P24-177 Sc - 153 - 5 10 15 20 Table 9: Data of the OLEDs 25 30 35 P24-177 Sc - 154 - 5 Table 10: Materials used, if not already described 10 15 20 25 30 35 P24177 S
