Compound with 9-fluorenone as core and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a compound taking 9-fluorenone as a core and application of the compound as a light-emitting layer material in an organic light-emitting diode.
Background
The Organic Light Emission Diodes (OLED) device technology can be used for manufacturing novel display products and novel lighting products, is expected to replace the existing liquid crystal display and fluorescent lamp lighting, and has wide application prospect.
The OLED light-emitting device is of a sandwich structure and comprises electrode material film layers and organic functional materials clamped between different electrode film layers, and the various different functional materials are mutually overlapped together according to the application to form the OLED light-emitting device. When voltage is applied to two end electrodes of the OLED light-emitting device as a current device, positive and negative charges in the organic layer functional material film layer are acted through an electric field, and the positive and negative charges are further compounded in the light-emitting layer, namely OLED electroluminescence is generated.
However, conventional organic fluorescent materials can only emit light using 25% singlet excitons formed by electrical excitation, the internal quantum efficiency of the device is low (up to 25%), the external quantum efficiency is generally lower than 5%, and there is a great difference from the efficiency of phosphorescent devices, although the phosphorescent materials can effectively emit light using singlet excitons and triplet excitons formed by electrical excitation due to strong spin-orbit coupling of heavy atom centers, the application of the phosphorescent materials in OLEDs is limited by problems such as high price, poor material stability, and serious roll-off of device efficiencyST) The triplet excitons may be converted to singlet excitons by intersystem crossing to emit light. This can make full use of singlet excitons and triplet excitons formed under electrical excitation, and the internal quantum efficiency of the device can reach 100%. Meanwhile, the material has controllable structure, stable property and low price, does not need precious metal, and is applied to the field of OLEDsThe scene is wide.
Although the TADF material can theoretically achieve 100% exciton utilization, in practice there is the problem that (1) the T1 and S1 states of the design molecule have strong CT characteristics, very small energy gaps of S1-T1 states, although high T can be achieved by the TADF process1→S1State exciton conversion but at the same time results in a low S1 state radiative transition rate, and therefore it is difficult to achieve both (or both) high exciton utilization and high fluorescence radiation efficiency; (2) even though doped devices have been employed to mitigate the T exciton concentration quenching effect, most devices of TADF materials suffer from severe roll-off in efficiency at high current densities.
In terms of the actual demand of the current OLED display illumination industry, the development of the current OLED material is far from enough, and lags behind the requirements of panel manufacturing enterprises, and the development of organic functional materials with higher performance is very important as a material enterprise.

The life test system is an OLED device life tester which is researched by the owner of the invention together with Shanghai university.
The results in table 3 show that the compound of the present invention can be used as a host material of a light emitting layer for fabrication of an OLED light emitting device, and compared with comparative example 1, the compound has greatly improved efficiency and lifetime, and particularly the driving lifetime of the device is greatly improved.
The effect of the synthesized compound of the present invention as a doping material for a light emitting layer in a device is illustrated by examples 23 to 29 and comparative example 2. In comparison with the embodiment 17, the manufacturing processes of the devices 23 to 29 and the comparative example 2 of the present invention are completely the same, and the same substrate material and electrode material are used, and the film thicknesses of the electrode materials are also kept consistent, except that the hole transport layer material and the doping material of the light emitting layer 5 in the device are different, and the doping concentration is 3%. The structural composition of each device is shown in table 4. The test results of the resulting devices are shown in table 5.
TABLE 4
TABLE 5
Note: the device test performance was defined as comparative example 2, and each performance index of the device of comparative example 2 was 1.0. The current efficiency of comparative example 2 was 2.3 cd/A; CIE color coordinates (0.64, 0.37); the driving voltage was 5.2v (@10 mA/cm)2)。
The results in table 5 show that the compound of the present invention can be applied as a doping material of a light emitting layer and manufactured into an OLED light emitting device, and compared with comparative example 2, the efficiency and the starting voltage are greatly improved compared with the known OLED material, and especially the efficiency roll-off of the device at high current density is improved.
From the data application, the material with the TADF characteristic has good application effect in OLED light-emitting devices and good industrialization prospect.
