1Duration of action of stationary object
If conventional materials are used in the emission layer, then the device structure is simple, but the service life is short
Solution Approach 1:
The emission layer employs a composite material system consisting of a host compound and a polycyclic dopant compound. The host compound provides the structural framework while the dopant compound (Formula 1) with specific polycyclic structure and low triplet energy (≤1.8 eV) enhances stability and extends service life through efficient energy management and reduced degradation pathways.
2Productivity
If high luminous efficiency is pursued, then more energy is converted to light, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The invention optimizes the triplet energy parameter of the dopant compound to be 1.8 eV or less, which matches well with common host materials. This parameter optimization enables efficient energy transfer and high luminous efficiency while maintaining structural simplicity. The specific polycyclic structure with controlled energy levels facilitates effective electroluminescence without requiring complex multi-layer configurations.
