Description

For substrate, its Use and preparation method of organic light emitting apparatus, and organic light emitting apparatus
Technical field
Theme of the present invention is multi-layered electrode, its acid etching and comprise its organic light emitting apparatus.
Background technology
Known organic light emission system or OLED include the laminated coating of electroluminescent material or electroluminescent organic material, make it charged by electrode, usually adopt two conductive layers to be positioned at the form of its both sides.
These conductive layers generally comprise based on indium oxide, the layer of the indium oxide of normally tin-doping, and the abbreviation ITO of the indium oxide of tin-doping is more common.In depth have studied ITO layer especially.Them can be made easily to deposit by magnetron sputter, wherein, use oxide target (non-reacted sputtering) or use the target (reactive sputtering under oxygen type oxidant exists) based on indium and tin, and their thickness is about 100-150nm.But this ITO layer has many shortcomings.First, for improving conductive material and high temperature (350 DEG C) deposition process generation fringe cost.Unless be increased to by layer thickness and be greater than 150nm, otherwise sheet resistance keeps relatively high (10 Ω/ level), and transparency thickness increase can be caused to reduce and surface roughness increase.
Therefore, new electrode structure is developed.Such as, the luminous flat screen of JP2005-038642 teaches TFT (thin-film transistor)-drive, it comprises the electro-luminescent systems of top light emitting, described electro-luminescent systems produces ruddiness, green glow and blue light respectively, to form active matrix (activematrix).
Each organic light emitting apparatus is all equipped with so-called back electrode or hearth electrode, and described electrode comprises:
-adhesion layer, such as, be made up of ITO;
-(partly) reflective metal layer, particularly based on silver or aluminium, or to be made up of the silver containing aluminium, its thickness is at least 50nm; With
-work function matching cover layer (work-function-matchingoverlayer), such as, be made up of ITO.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to obtain conductive layer assembly, to form reliable electrode, described electrode durable (particularly in stability and/or mechanical endurance and thermal endurance), and do not sacrifice its electric conductivity or its optical quality, do not sacrifice the performance of the device comprising it, more can not cause the difficulty in production yet.
Object of the present invention particularly can obtain conductive layer assembly, and it for the formation of the hearth electrode of reliability and durability electro-luminescent systems, and does not sacrifice its electric conductivity, its optical quality or oled light performance, does not also produce the difficulty in production.
In content of the present invention, term " hearth electrode " is construed as the electrode referring to and be inserted between carrier substrate and OLED system.
In addition, this purpose will be realized with least cost, and not upset the known structure of organic light emission system related to the present invention.
This relate to exploitation as bottom electrode: as described in electrode be substantial transparent, or be transparent and reflection-type or reflection-type substantially, and described electrode is equal compatibly for OLED, form active matrix and passive matrix OLED screen, or form video recording screen back lighting device, or be generally used for the device of (building and/or decoration) illumination application, or be used to indicate in application, or in other electronic application.
This novel electrode film particularly can have the optical property being suitable as panel, and described panel is the face of the light that sends of OLED system by its separating device.Especially, it can have the conduction of sufficient light, also has minimum possible light absorption simultaneously.Its reason seems the possible the highest light conduction of unnecessary pursuit to obtain maximum luminous energy in the outlet of OLED device, meanwhile, on the other hand, for panel, must have minimum possible absorption.
Therefore, the present invention is also to select the thin-film multilayer coating compatible with making the method for organic light emitting apparatus, particularly with deposit in OLED system before compatible by the step etching to be formed hearth electrode.
The object of the invention is to the shortcoming by proposing to remedy for the preparation of the new solution of the bottom electrode film of organic light emitting apparatus prior art.
In order to realize this object, theme of the present invention is: a kind of substrate as claimed in claim 1; A purposes for substrate, the particularly purposes of substrate as claimed in claim 22; Comprise the organic light emitting apparatus that described substrate person adopts described substrate as claimed in claim 24; With the method for making described substrate as claimed in claim 29.
Those being subordinated to above claim claims defines favourable selection of the present invention.
Therefore, most broadly say, a theme of the present invention is, a kind of substrate for organic light emitting apparatus, particularly transparent glass substrate, it comprises, and is positioned at the bottom electrode film on the first first type surface, described electrode film is by thin-film multilayer coating formation, and described laminated coating comprises following layer at least continuously:
-based on the contact layer of metal oxide and/or metal nitride,
-there is the metal function layer of intrinsic conduction performance, and
-based on the cover layer of metal oxide and/or metal nitride, described cover layer especially for the work function of the described electrode film of coupling,
Described substrate comprises basic unit (baselayer), and described basic unit covers the first type surface of described substrate.
Basic unit of the present invention has two effects: it had both been formed the alkali-metal barrier from substrate, also forms the requisite anti-reflecting layer of the micropore for OLED system simultaneously.
Therefore, electrode film of the present invention is made up of thin-film multilayer coating, described thin-film multilayer coating comprises at least one metal function layer, particularly based on silver (that is, be made from silver or be made up of the main metal alloy containing silver), with at least one is placed in the end anti-reflective film between substrate and described metal function layer, described anti-reflective film comprises at least one antireflection dielectric layer, i.e. basic unit.
In content of the present invention, term " film " is construed as and refers to, can have the layer be made up of homogenous material, or is made from a variety of materials many layers separately.
Be positioned at and only depend on visual angle in the face of substrate and with the object of the described anti-reflective film of substrate contacts to be the light making OLED system send be only wavelength-optionally under metal function layer.
This is because, if there is no described anti-reflective film, on the one hand, the light that OLED system sends very concentrates on emission wavelength, or concentrate in the very narrow scope of the emission wavelength of OLED system, and on the other hand, the color of described light and energy greatly change along with visual angle.
This thin-film multilayer coating is known in building or vehicle glass (automotiveglazing) field, for the preparation of the heat-intercepting glass of the enhancing of " low-emissivity or low-E " and/or " sunlight control " type.
Therefore, inventor notices that some laminated coating for low-E glass (glazing) may be used for preparing basic unit and the electrode film of organic light emitting apparatus especially, and especially for the basic unit of the panel of these devices and electrode film.
The laminated coating being called " can malleableize " laminated coating or " treating malleableize " coating is particularly suitable, that is, when hope preparation has the substrate of laminated coating, carries out malleableize heat treatment to those adopted laminated coatings.This is just more amazing, this is because be without heat treated when being used for this device for the substrate of organic light emitting apparatus, or do not need to carry out patent on the glass substrate in any case, and carry out sufficient heat treatment and cooling fast fully.
Therefore, theme of the present invention is also the purposes of thin-film multilayer coating for building glass (glazing), or a kind of purposes of substrate for building glass scribbling thin-film multilayer coating, particularly low-E laminated coating or coated substrate and/or particularly " can malleableize " laminated coating or coated substrate or " treating malleableize " laminated coating, to prepare the substrate for organic light emitting apparatus of the present invention.
In content of the present invention, term " can malleableize " laminated coating or substrate are construed as and refer to keep necessary optical property and hot property (represented by the patience (resistance) of every quadrature, this is directly related with emissivity) in heat treatment process.
Therefore, can in a building and the front of same building, such as the face glass of the substrate of the substrate and non-malleableize that combine malleableize is closely put together, described substrate all scribbles same laminated coating, they can not be distinguished from each other by the reflection of visualization of color simply and/or light reflection/transmission.
Such as, have the laminated coating of following change or scribble the substrate of laminated coating before 0 after the heat treatment, will be considered to can malleableize, this is because these changes are not that eyes can be discovered:
-be less than 3%, or the little change Delta T that the light being even less than 2% conducts l; And/or
-be less than 3%, or the little changes delta R that the light being even less than 2% reflects l; And/or
-be less than 3 or be even less than 2 the little change of color ΔE = ( ( ΔL * ) 2 + ( Δa * ) 2 + ( Δb * ) 2 ) .
In the present invention, " treating malleableize " laminated coating or substrate are construed as the optical property that refers to coated substrate and hot property is acceptable after the heat treatment, but not, or be not under any circumstance all before the heat treatment.
In content of the present invention, such as, there is the laminated coating of following characteristic after the heat treatment or scribble the substrate of laminated coating, " treating malleableize " will be considered to but at least one that do not have before the heat treatment in these characteristics:
The high light conduction T of-at least 50% l, or even at least 60% or 65%, or even 70%, or even at least 75% and more preferably at least 80%; And/or
The patience R of-at least equally good with the ITO with usual thickness every quadrature , be particularly less than 20 Ω/ or be even less than 15 Ω/.
The important point is, the electrode film for panel is also fully transparent, thus before OLED system deposition, it has the light conduction of at least 50% and preferred 60-70%, and on the other hand, has low-down absorption, thus before OLED system deposition, it is defined as 1-R l-T labsorption be equal to or less than 15%, or be even equal to or less than 10%, or be even equal to or less than 8%, or be even equal to or less than 5%.
The light conduction being greater than 70% should be avoided, this means, if reach this value, the thickness being positioned at the film coating between metal function layer and OLED system (cover layer and other layer optionally existed) is too large, metal function layer distance OLED system is too far away, is easy to the performance weakening OLED.
Basic unit can:
-based on Si oxide (general formula is SiO);

Alkali-metal migration may be there is in the preparation process of device, thus cause lacking reliability, and/or and then reduce its life-span.
Basic unit improves the grappling performance (anchoringproperties) of contact layer, and can not cause the increase of a little to the roughness of whole laminated coating, even if insert one or more layers between basic unit and contact layer.
Certainly, the present invention for being extremely beneficial with being easy to discharge alkali-metal carrier substrate electrode close as far as possible, such as particularly transparent or super clear soda-lime glass.
In addition, this special laminated coating structure also can obtain reliable electrode, thus can realize significantly improving of productivity ratio.
And, and lower cost obtains is as bottom electrode: as described in electrode demonstrate the compatibility of surface property and organic light emission system, still have simultaneously can be adjusted in suitable conductivity and/or transparency or reflecting properties, particularly carry out described adjustment by the thickness of change metal level or other layer and/or sedimentary condition.
