Description
Priority of united states provisional application No. 62/986,026 filed 3/6/2020 and united states provisional application No. 63/082,774 filed 9/24/2020, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties, are claimed in this application under 35 u.s.c. § 119 (e).
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates generally to organometallic compounds and formulations and various uses thereof, including as emitters in devices such as organic light emitting diodes and related electronic devices.
Background
Photovoltaic devices utilizing organic materials are becoming increasingly popular for a variety of reasons. Many of the materials used to make such devices are relatively inexpensive, and therefore organic photovoltaic devices have the potential for cost advantages over inorganic devices. In addition, the inherent properties of organic materials (e.g., their flexibility) may make them more suitable for particular applications, such as fabrication on flexible substrates. Examples of organic optoelectronic devices include organic light emitting diodes/devices (OLEDs), organic phototransistors, organic photovoltaic cells, and organic photodetectors. For OLEDs, organic materials may have performance advantages over conventional materials.
OLEDs utilize organic thin films that emit light when a voltage is applied across the device. OLEDs are becoming an increasingly interesting technology for applications such as flat panel displays, lighting and backlighting.
One application of phosphorescent emissive molecules is in full color displays. Industry standards for such displays require pixels adapted to emit a particular color, known as a "saturated" color. In particular, these standards require saturated red, green, and blue pixels. Alternatively, OLEDs can be designed to emit white light. In conventional liquid crystal displays, an absorptive filter is used to filter the emission from a white backlight to produce red, green, and blue emissions. The same technique can also be used for OLEDs. The white OLED may be a single emission layer (EML) device or a stacked structure. Color can be measured using CIE coordinates well known in the art.

Detailed Description
A. Term(s) for
Unless otherwise specified, the following terms as used herein are defined as follows:
as used herein, the term "organic" includes polymeric materials and small molecule organic materials that may be used to fabricate organic optoelectronic devices. "Small molecule" refers to any organic material that is not a polymer, and "small molecules" may actually be quite large. In some cases, the small molecule may include a repeat unit. For example, the use of long chain alkyl groups as substituents does not remove a molecule from the "small molecule" class. Small molecules can also be incorporated into polymers, for example as pendant groups on the polymer backbone or as part of the backbone. Small molecules can also serve as the core moiety of a dendrimer, which consists of a series of chemical shells built on the core moiety. The core moiety of the dendrimer may be a fluorescent or phosphorescent small molecule emitter. Dendrimers can be "small molecules," and all dendrimers currently used in the OLED art are considered small molecules.
As used herein, "top" means furthest from the substrate, and "bottom" means closest to the substrate. Where a first layer is described as being "disposed" over "a second layer, the first layer is disposed farther from the substrate. Other layers may be present between the first and second layers, unless it is specified that the first layer is "in contact with" the second layer. For example, a cathode may be described as "disposed over" an anode even though various organic layers are present between the cathode and the anode.
As used herein, "solution processable" means capable of being dissolved, dispersed or transported in and/or deposited from a liquid medium in the form of a solution or suspension.
A ligand may be referred to as "photoactive" when it is believed that the ligand contributes directly to the photoactive properties of the emissive material. A ligand may be referred to as "ancillary" when it is believed that the ligand does not contribute to the photoactive properties of the emissive material, but the ancillary ligand may alter the properties of the photoactive ligand.
As used herein, and as will be generally understood by those skilled in the art, if the first energy level is closer to the vacuum energy level, the first "Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital" (HOMO) or "Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital" (LUMO) energy level is "greater than" or "higher than" the second HOMO or LUMO energy level. Since Ionization Potential (IP) is measured as negative energy relative to vacuum level, a higher HOMO level corresponds to an IP with a smaller absolute value (less negative IP). Similarly, a higher LUMO energy level corresponds to an Electron Affinity (EA) with a smaller absolute value (a less negative EA). On a conventional energy level diagram with vacuum levels at the top, the LUMO energy level of a material is higher than the HOMO energy level of the same material. The "higher" HOMO or LUMO energy level appears closer to the top of this figure than the "lower" HOMO or LUMO energy level.
As used herein, and as will be generally understood by those skilled in the art, a first work function is "greater than" or "higher than" a second work function if the first work function has a higher absolute value. Since the work function is typically measured as negative relative to the vacuum level, this means that the "higher" work function is more negative (more negative). On a conventional energy level diagram with vacuum level at the top, the "higher" work function is illustrated as being farther from the vacuum level in the downward direction. Thus, the definitions of HOMO and LUMO energy levels follow a different rule than work functions.

In other cases, most preferred general substituents are selected from the group consisting of: deuterium, fluoro, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, and combinations thereof.
The terms "substituted" and "substitution" mean that a substituent other than H is bonded to the relevant position, e.g., carbon or nitrogen. For example, when R is1When representing a single substitution, then one R1Must not be H (i.e., substituted). Similarly, when R is1When representing disubstituted, then two R1Must not be H. Similarly, when R is1When represents zero or no substitution, R1For example, hydrogen may be available in valence number to a ring atom (e.g., a carbon atom of benzene and a nitrogen atom in pyrrole), or may represent nothing only to a ring atom having a fully saturated valence number (e.g., a nitrogen atom in pyridine). The maximum number of substitutions possible in a ring structure will depend on the total number of available valences in the ring atoms.
As used herein, "a combination thereof" means that one or more members of the applicable list are combined to form a known or chemically stable arrangement that one of ordinary skill in the art can envision from the applicable list. For example, alkyl and deuterium can be combined to form a partially or fully deuterated alkyl; halogen and alkyl may combine to form haloalkyl substituents; and halogen, alkyl, and aryl groups may be combined to form haloaralkyl groups. In one example, the term substituted includes combinations of two to four of the listed groups. In another example, the term substitution includes a combination of two to three groups. In yet another example, the term substitution includes a combination of two groups. Preferred combinations of substituents are those containing up to fifty atoms other than hydrogen or deuterium, or those containing up to forty atoms other than hydrogen or deuterium, or those containing up to thirty atoms other than hydrogen or deuterium. In many cases, a preferred combination of substituents will include up to twenty atoms that are not hydrogen or deuterium.
The term "aza" in the fragment described herein, i.e., aza-dibenzofuran, aza-dibenzothiophene, etc., means that one or more of the C-H groups in the corresponding aromatic ring can be replaced by a nitrogen atom, for example and without any limitation, azatriphenylene encompasses dibenzo [ f, H ] quinoxaline and dibenzo [ f, H ] quinoline. Other nitrogen analogs of the aza-derivatives described above can be readily envisioned by one of ordinary skill in the art, and all such analogs are intended to be encompassed by the term as set forth herein.
As used herein, "deuterium" refers to an isotope of hydrogen. Deuterated compounds can be readily prepared using methods known in the art. For example, U.S. patent No. 8,557,400, patent publication No. WO 2006/095951, and U.S. patent application publication No. US 2011/0037057 (which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety) describe the preparation of deuterium substituted organometallic complexes. With further reference to \37154min (Ming Yan) et al, Tetrahedron (Tetrahedron)2015,71,1425-30 and azrote (Atzrodt) et al, german applied chemistry (angelw. chem. int. ed.) (review) 2007,46,7744-65, which are incorporated by reference in their entirety, describe efficient routes for deuteration of methylene hydrogens in benzylamines and replacement of aromatic ring hydrogens with deuterium, respectively.
It is understood that when a molecular fragment is described as a substituent or otherwise attached to another moiety, its name can be written as if it were a fragment (e.g., phenyl, phenylene, naphthyl, dibenzofuranyl) or as if it were an entire molecule (e.g., benzene, naphthalene, dibenzofuran). As used herein, these different named substituents or the manner of linking the fragments are considered equivalent.
In some cases, a pair of adjacent substituents may optionally join or be fused to form a ring. Preferred rings are five-, six-or seven-membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic rings, including both cases where a portion of the ring formed by the pair of substituents is saturated and where a portion of the ring formed by the pair of substituents is unsaturated. As used herein, "adjacent" means that the two substituents involved can be on the same ring next to each other, or on two adjacent rings having two nearest available substitutable positions (e.g., the 2, 2' positions in biphenyl or the 1, 8 positions in naphthalene), so long as they can form a stable fused ring system.

C. OLEDs and devices of the present disclosure
In another aspect, the present disclosure also provides an OLED device comprising a first organic layer comprising a compound as disclosed in the above compounds section of the present disclosure.
In some embodiments, the OLED comprises an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer disposed between the anode and the cathode. The organic layer may contain a ligand LAThe ligand having a structure according to formula 1 described herein.
In some embodiments, the organic layer may be an emissive layer and the compound as described herein may be an emissive dopant or a non-emissive dopant.
In some embodiments, the organic layer may further comprise a host, wherein the host comprises a triphenylene comprising a benzo-fused thiophene or a benzo-fused furan, wherein any substituent in the host is a non-fused substituent independently selected from the group consisting of: cnH2n+1、OCnH2n+1、OAr1、N(CnH2n+1)2、N(Ar1)(Ar2)、CH=CH-CnH2n+1、C≡CCnH2n+1、Ar1、Ar1-Ar2、CnH2n-Ar1Or no substituent, wherein n is 1 to 10; and wherein Ar1And Ar2Independently selected from the group consisting of: benzene, biphenyl, naphthalene, triphenylene, carbazole, and heteroaromatic analogs thereof.
In some embodiments, the organic layer may further comprise a host, wherein the host comprises at least one chemical group selected from the group consisting of: triphenylene, carbazole, indolocarbazole, dibenzothiophene, dibenzofuran, dibenzoselenophene, 5, 9-dioxa-13 b-boronaphtho [3,2,1-de ] anthracene, aza-triphenylene, aza-carbazole, aza-indolocarbazole, aza-dibenzothiophene, aza-dibenzofuran, aza-dibenzoselenophene, and aza- (5, 9-dioxa-13 b-boronaphtho [3,2,1-de ] anthracene).
In some embodiments, the body may be selected from the group of bodies consisting of the structures in list N below:
In some embodiments, the organic layer may further comprise a host, wherein the host comprises a metal complex.
In some embodiments, a compound as described herein may be a sensitizer; wherein the device may further comprise a receptor; and wherein the receptor may be selected from the group consisting of: fluorescent emitters, delayed fluorescent emitters, and combinations thereof.
In yet another aspect, the OLEDs of the present disclosure can further comprise an emissive region comprising a compound as disclosed in the above compounds section of the present disclosure.
In some embodiments, the emissive region may comprise a compound of the present disclosure.
In some embodiments, at least one of the anode, cathode, or new layer disposed over the organic emissive layer serves as an enhancement layer. The enhancement layer includes a plasmonic material exhibiting surface plasmon resonance that couples non-radiatively to the emitter material and transfers excited state energy from the emitter material to a non-radiative mode of surface plasmon polaritons. The enhancement layer is disposed at a distance from the organic emissive layer that does not exceed a threshold distance, wherein the emitter material has an overall non-radiative decay rate constant and an overall radiative decay rate constant due to the presence of the enhancement layer, and the threshold distance is where the overall non-radiative decay rate constant equals the overall radiative decay rate constant. In some embodiments, the OLED further comprises an outcoupling layer. In some embodiments, the outcoupling layer is disposed on the enhancement layer on the opposite side of the organic emission layer. In some embodiments, the outcoupling layer is disposed on the opposite side of the emission layer from the enhancement layer, but is still capable of outcoupling energy from surface plasmon modes of the enhancement layer. The outcoupling layer scatters energy from surface plasmon polaritons. In some embodiments, this energy is scattered into free space as photons. In other embodiments, energy is scattered from a surface plasmon mode of the device into other modes, such as, but not limited to, an organic waveguide mode, a substrate mode, or another waveguide mode. If the energy is scattered into a non-free space mode of the OLED, other outcoupling schemes can be incorporated to extract the energy into free space. In some embodiments, one or more intervening layers may be disposed between the enhancement layer and the outcoupling layer. Examples of intervening layers may be dielectric materials, including organic, inorganic, perovskite, oxides, and may include stacks and/or mixtures of these materials.
The enhancement layer changes the effective characteristics of the medium in which the emitter material resides, thereby causing any or all of the following: reduced emissivity, linear change in emission, angular change in emission intensity, change in emitter material stability, change in OLED efficiency, and reduced roll-off efficiency of the OLED device. Placing the enhancement layer on the cathode side, the anode side, or both sides results in an OLED device that takes advantage of any of the effects described above. In addition to the specific functional layers mentioned herein and illustrated in the various OLED examples shown in the figures, OLEDs according to the present disclosure may also include any other functional layers that are common in OLEDs.
The enhancement layer may comprise a plasmonic material, an optically active metamaterial or a hyperbolic metamaterial. As used herein, a plasmonic material is a material in which the real part of the dielectric constant crosses zero in the visible or ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum. In some embodiments, the plasmonic material comprises at least one metal. In such embodiments, the metal may include at least one of: ag. Al, Au, Ir, Pt, Ni, Cu, W, Ta, Fe, Cr, Mg, Ga, Rh, Ti, Ru, Pd, In, Bi, Ca, alloys or mixtures of these materials, and stacks of these materials. In general, a metamaterial is a medium composed of different materials, wherein the medium as a whole acts differently than the sum of its material parts. Specifically, we define an optically active metamaterial as a material having both negative permittivity and negative permeability. On the other hand, hyperbolic metamaterials are anisotropic media in which the permittivity or permeability has different signs for different spatial directions. Optically active metamaterials and hyperbolic metamaterials are strictly distinguished from many other photonic structures, such as Distributed Bragg reflectors ("DBRs"), because the medium should appear uniform in the propagation direction on the length scale of the optical wavelength. Using terminology understood by those skilled in the art: the dielectric constant of the metamaterial in the propagation direction can be described by an effective medium approximation. Plasmonic and metamaterial materials provide a means for controlling light propagation that can enhance OLED performance in a variety of ways.
In some embodiments, the reinforcement layer is provided as a planar layer. In other embodiments, the enhancement layer has features of wavelength size arranged periodically, quasi-periodically, or randomly, or features of sub-wavelength size arranged periodically, quasi-periodically, or randomly. In some embodiments, the wavelength-sized features and the sub-wavelength-sized features have sharp edges.
In some embodiments, the outcoupling layer has features of wavelength size that are arranged periodically, quasi-periodically, or randomly, or features of sub-wavelength size that are arranged periodically, quasi-periodically, or randomly. In some embodiments, the outcoupling layer may be composed of a plurality of nanoparticles, and in other embodiments, the outcoupling layer is composed of a plurality of nanoparticles disposed over the material. In these embodiments, the out-coupling may be adjusted by at least one of the following: varying a size of the plurality of nanoparticles, varying a shape of the plurality of nanoparticles, varying a material of the plurality of nanoparticles, adjusting a thickness of the material, varying a refractive index of the material or an additional layer disposed on the plurality of nanoparticles, varying a thickness of the enhancement layer, and/or varying a material of the enhancement layer. The plurality of nanoparticles of the device may be formed from at least one of: a metal, a dielectric material, a semiconductor material, a metal alloy, a mixture of dielectric materials, a stack or a laminate of one or more materials, and/or a core of one type of material and coated with a shell of another type of material. In some embodiments, the outcoupling layer is composed of at least metal nanoparticles, wherein the metal is selected from the group consisting of: ag. Al, Au, Ir, Pt, Ni, Cu, W, Ta, Fe, Cr, Mg, Ga, Rh, Ti, Ru, Pd, In, Bi, Ca, alloys or mixtures of these materials, and stacks of these materials. The plurality of nanoparticles may have an additional layer disposed thereon. In some embodiments, an outcoupling layer may be used to adjust the polarization of the emission. Varying the size and periodicity of the outcoupling layer can select the type of polarization that is preferentially outcoupled to air. In some embodiments, the outcoupling layer also serves as an electrode of the device.
In yet another aspect, the present disclosure also provides a consumer product comprising an Organic Light Emitting Device (OLED) having an anode; a cathode; and an organic layer disposed between the anode and the cathode, wherein the organic layer can comprise a compound as disclosed in the above compounds section of the present disclosure.
In some embodiments, the consumer product comprises an OLED, the organic light emitting device having an anode; a cathode; and an organic layer disposed between the anode and the cathode, wherein the organic layer can comprise a compound of the present disclosure as described herein.
In some embodiments, the consumer product may be one of the following: a flat panel display, a computer monitor, a medical monitor, a television, a billboard, a light for interior or exterior lighting and/or signaling, a heads-up display, a fully or partially transparent display, a flexible display, a laser printer, a telephone, a cellular telephone, a tablet, a phablet, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a wearable device, a laptop computer, a digital camera, a video camera, a viewfinder, a microdisplay at a diagonal of less than 2 inches, a 3-D display, a virtual reality or augmented reality display, a vehicle, a video wall containing multiple displays tiled together, a theater or stadium screen, a phototherapy device, and a sign.
Generally, an OLED comprises at least one organic layer disposed between and electrically connected to an anode and a cathode. When current is applied, the anode injects holes and the cathode injects electrons into the organic layer. The injected holes and electrons each migrate toward the oppositely charged electrode. When an electron and a hole are located on the same molecule, an "exciton," which is a localized electron-hole pair with an excited energy state, is formed. When the exciton relaxes by a light emission mechanism, light is emitted. In some cases, the exciton may be localized on an excimer (eximer) or an exciplex. Non-radiative mechanisms (such as thermal relaxation) may also occur, but are generally considered undesirable.
Several OLED materials and configurations are described in U.S. patent nos. 5,844,363, 6,303,238, and 5,707,745, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
The initial OLEDs used emissive molecules that emit light from a singlet state ("fluorescence"), as disclosed, for example, in U.S. patent No. 4,769,292, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. Fluorescence emission typically occurs in a time frame of less than 10 nanoseconds.
More recently, OLEDs having emissive materials that emit light from the triplet state ("phosphorescence") have been demonstrated. Baldo et al, "high efficiency Phosphorescent Emission from Organic Electroluminescent Devices" (Nature), 395, 151-154,1998 ("Baldo-I"); and baldo et al, "Very high-efficiency green organic light-emitting devices based on electrophosphorescence (Very high-efficiency green organic light-emitting devices-based on electrophosphorescence)", applied physical promo (appl. phys. lett.), volume 75, stages 3,4-6 (1999) ("baldo-II"), which are incorporated by reference in their entirety. Phosphorescence is described in more detail in U.S. Pat. No. 7,279,704, columns 5-6, which is incorporated by reference.
Fig. 1 shows an organic light emitting device 100. The figures are not necessarily to scale. Device 100 can include substrate 110, anode 115, hole injection layer 120, hole transport layer 125, electron blocking layer 130, emissive layer 135, hole blocking layer 140, electron transport layer 145, electron injection layer 150, protective layer 155, cathode 160, and blocking layer 170. Cathode 160 is a composite cathode having a first conductive layer 162 and a second conductive layer 164. The device 100 may be fabricated by depositing the layers in sequence. The nature and function of these various layers, as well as example materials, are described in more detail in U.S. Pat. No. 7,279,704, columns 6-10, which is incorporated by reference.
More instances of each of these layers are available. For example, a flexible and transparent substrate-anode combination is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,844,363, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. An example of a p-doped hole transport layer is doped with F at a molar ratio of 50:14TCNQ m-MTDATA as disclosed in U.S. patent application publication No. 2003/0230980, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. Examples of luminescent and host materials are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,303,238 to Thompson et al, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. An example of an n-doped electron transport layer is BPhen doped with Li at a molar ratio of 1:1, as disclosed in U.S. patent application publication No. 2003/0230980, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,703,436 and 5,707,745, which are incorporated by reference in their entirety, disclose examples of cathodes comprising composite cathodes having a thin layer of a metal (e.g., Mg: Ag) with an overlying transparent, conductive, sputter-deposited ITO layer. The theory and use of barrier layers is described in more detail in U.S. Pat. No. 6,097,147 and U.S. patent application publication No. 2003/0230980, which are incorporated by reference in their entiretyAnd (6) adding. Examples of injection layers are provided in U.S. patent application publication No. 2004/0174116, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. A description of the protective layer may be found in U.S. patent application publication No. 2004/0174116, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
Fig. 2 shows an inverted OLED 200. The device includes a substrate 210, a cathode 215, an emissive layer 220, a hole transport layer 225, and an anode 230. The device 200 may be fabricated by depositing the layers in sequence. Because the most common OLED configuration has a cathode disposed above an anode, and device 200 has a cathode 215 disposed below an anode 230, device 200 may be referred to as an "inverted" OLED. Materials similar to those described with respect to device 100 may be used in corresponding layers of device 200. Fig. 2 provides one example of how some layers may be omitted from the structure of device 100.
The simple layered structure illustrated in fig. 1 and 2 is provided by way of non-limiting example, and it is to be understood that embodiments of the present disclosure may be used in conjunction with various other structures. The specific materials and structures described are exemplary in nature, and other materials and structures may be used. Functional OLEDs may be obtained by combining the various layers described in different ways, or the layers may be omitted entirely based on design, performance, and cost factors. Other layers not specifically described may also be included. Materials other than those specifically described may be used. Although many of the examples provided herein describe the various layers as comprising a single material, it is understood that combinations of materials may be used, such as mixtures of hosts and dopants, or more generally, mixtures. Further, the layer may have various sub-layers. The names given to the various layers herein are not intended to be strictly limiting. For example, in device 200, hole transport layer 225 transports holes and injects holes into emissive layer 220, and may be described as a hole transport layer or a hole injection layer. In one embodiment, an OLED may be described as having an "organic layer" disposed between a cathode and an anode. This organic layer may comprise a single layer, or may further comprise multiple layers of different organic materials as described, for example, with respect to fig. 1 and 2.
Structures and materials not specifically described may also be used, such as oleds (pleds) comprising polymeric materials, such as disclosed in U.S. patent No. 5,247,190 to frand (Friend), et al, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. By way of further example, OLEDs having a single organic layer may be used. The OLEDs may be stacked, for example, as described in U.S. patent No. 5,707,745 to forrister (Forrest) et al, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. The OLED structure may deviate from the simple layered structure illustrated in fig. 1 and 2. For example, the substrate may include an angled reflective surface to improve out-coupling (out-coupling), such as a mesa structure as described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,091,195 to Foster et al, and/or a pit structure as described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,834,893 to Boolean (Bulovic) et al, which are incorporated by reference in their entirety.
Any of the layers of the various embodiments may be deposited by any suitable method, unless otherwise specified. For organic layers, preferred methods include thermal evaporation, ink jetting (as described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,013,982 and 6,087,196, both incorporated by reference in their entirety), organic vapor deposition (OVPD) (as described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,337,102 to Foster et al, both incorporated by reference in their entirety), and deposition by Organic Vapor Jet Printing (OVJP) (as described in U.S. Pat. No. 7,431,968, incorporated by reference in its entirety). Other suitable deposition methods include spin coating and other solution-based processes. The solution-based process is preferably carried out in a nitrogen or inert atmosphere. For other layers, a preferred method includes thermal evaporation. Preferred patterning methods include deposition through a mask, cold welding (as described in U.S. Pat. nos. 6,294,398 and 6,468,819, which are incorporated by reference in their entirety), and patterning associated with some of the deposition methods such as inkjet and Organic Vapor Jet Printing (OVJP). Other methods may also be used. The material to be deposited may be modified to suit the particular deposition method. For example, substituents such as alkyl and aryl groups, branched or unbranched, and preferably containing at least 3 carbons, may be used in small molecules to enhance their ability to undergo solution processing. Substituents having 20 carbons or more may be used, and 3 to 20 carbons is a preferred range. A material with an asymmetric structure may have better solution processibility than a material with a symmetric structure because asymmetric materials may have a lower tendency to recrystallize. Dendrimer substituents may be used to enhance the ability of small molecules to undergo solution processing.
Devices fabricated according to embodiments of the present disclosure may further optionally include a barrier layer. One use of barrier layers is to protect the electrodes and organic layers from damage from exposure to hazardous substances in the environment including moisture, vapor, and/or gas. The barrier layer may be deposited on, under or beside the substrate, electrode, or on any other part of the device, including the edge. The barrier layer may comprise a single layer or multiple layers. The barrier layer may be formed by various known chemical vapor deposition techniques and may include compositions having a single phase and compositions having multiple phases. Any suitable material or combination of materials may be used for the barrier layer. The barrier layer may incorporate an inorganic compound or an organic compound or both. Preferred barrier layers comprise a mixture of polymeric and non-polymeric materials as described in U.S. patent No. 7,968,146, PCT patent application nos. PCT/US2007/023098 and PCT/US2009/042829, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. To be considered a "mixture," the aforementioned polymeric and non-polymeric materials that make up the barrier layer should be deposited under the same reaction conditions and/or simultaneously. The weight ratio of polymeric material to non-polymeric material may be in the range of 95:5 to 5: 95. The polymeric material and the non-polymeric material may be produced from the same precursor material. In one example, the mixture of polymeric material and non-polymeric material consists essentially of polymeric silicon and inorganic silicon.
Devices manufactured according to embodiments of the present disclosure may be incorporated into a wide variety of electronic component modules (or units), which may be incorporated into a wide variety of electronic products or intermediate components. Examples of such electronic products or intermediate components include display screens, lighting devices (e.g., discrete light source devices or lighting panels), etc., which may be utilized by end-user product manufacturers. The electronics module may optionally include drive electronics and/or a power source. Devices manufactured in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure may be incorporated into a wide variety of consumer products having one or more electronic component modules (or units) incorporated therein. A consumer product comprising an OLED comprising a compound of the present disclosure in an organic layer in the OLED is disclosed. The consumer product shall include any kind of product comprising one or more light sources and/or one or more of some type of visual display. Some examples of such consumer products include flat panel displays, curved displays, computer monitors, medical monitors, televisions, billboards, lights for interior or exterior illumination and/or signaling, heads-up displays, fully or partially transparent displays, flexible displays, rollable displays, foldable displays, stretchable displays, laser printers, telephones, cellular telephones, tablet computers, tablet phones, Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), wearable devices, laptop computers, digital cameras, video cameras, viewfinders, microdisplays (displays less than 2 inches diagonal), 3-D displays, virtual reality or augmented reality displays, vehicles, video walls containing multiple displays tiled together, theater or stadium screens, phototherapy devices, and signs. Various control mechanisms may be used to control devices made in accordance with the present disclosure, including passive matrices and active matrices. Many of the devices are intended to be used in a temperature range that is comfortable for humans, such as 18 ℃ to 30 ℃, and more preferably at room temperature (20-25 ℃), but can be used outside this temperature range (e.g., -40 ℃ to +80 ℃).
More details regarding OLEDs and the definitions described above can be found in U.S. patent No. 7,279,704, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
The materials and structures described herein may be applied to devices other than OLEDs.

f)HBL:
Hole Blocking Layers (HBLs) may be used to reduce the number of holes and/or excitons that leave the emissive layer. The presence of such a barrier layer in a device may result in substantially higher efficiency and/or longer lifetime compared to a similar device lacking a barrier layer. In addition, blocking layers can be used to limit the emission to the desired area of the OLED. In some embodiments, the HBL material has a lower HOMO (farther from the vacuum level) and/or higher triplet energy than the emitter closest to the HBL interface. In some embodiments, the HBL material has a lower HOMO (farther from the vacuum level) and/or higher triplet energy than one or more of the hosts closest to the HBL interface.
In one aspect, the compound used in the HBL contains the same molecule or the same functional group as used for the host described above.
In another aspect, the compound used in HBL contains in the molecule at least one of the following groups:
wherein k is an integer from 1 to 20; l is101Is another ligand, and k' is an integer of 1 to 3.
g)ETL:
The Electron Transport Layer (ETL) may include a material capable of transporting electrons. The electron transport layer may be intrinsic (undoped) or doped. Doping may be used to enhance conductivity. Examples of the ETL material are not particularly limited, and any metal complex or organic compound may be used as long as it is generally used to transport electrons.
In one aspect, the compound used in the ETL contains in the molecule at least one of the following groups:
wherein R is101Selected from the group consisting of: hydrogen, deuterium, halogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, heteroalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aralkyl, alkoxy, aryloxy, amino, silyl, alkenyl, cycloalkenyl, heteroalkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, acyl, carboxylic acid, ether, ester, nitrile, isonitrile, thio, sulfinyl, sulfonyl, phosphino, and combinations thereof, which when aryl or heteroaryl has a similar definition to Ar described above. Ar (Ar)1To Ar3Have similar definitions as Ar mentioned above. k is an integer of 1 to 20. X101To X108Selected from C (including CH) or N.
In another aspect, the metal complex used in the ETL contains (but is not limited to) the following general formula:
wherein (O-N) or (N-N) is a bidentate ligand having a metal coordinated to atom O, N or N, N; l is101Is another ligand; k' is an integer value from 1 to the maximum number of ligands that can be attached to the metal.

h) charge Generation Layer (CGL)
In tandem or stacked OLEDs, CGL plays a fundamental role in performance, consisting of an n-doped layer and a p-doped layer for injecting electrons and holes, respectively. Electrons and holes are supplied by the CGL and the electrodes. Electrons and holes consumed in the CGL are refilled by electrons and holes injected from the cathode and anode, respectively; subsequently, the bipolar current gradually reaches a steady state. Typical CGL materials include n and p conductivity dopants used in the transport layer.
In any of the above-mentioned compounds used in each layer of the OLED device, the hydrogen atoms may be partially or fully deuterated. Thus, any of the specifically listed substituents, such as (but not limited to) methyl, phenyl, pyridyl, and the like, can be in their non-deuterated, partially deuterated, and fully deuterated forms. Similarly, substituent classes (such as, but not limited to, alkyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, heteroaryl, etc.) can also be non-deuterated, partially deuterated, and fully deuterated forms thereof.
It should be understood that the various embodiments described herein are by way of example only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. For example, many of the materials and structures described herein may be substituted with other materials and structures without departing from the spirit of the invention. The invention as claimed may thus comprise variations of the specific examples and preferred embodiments described herein, as will be apparent to those skilled in the art. It should be understood that various theories as to why the invention works are not intended to be limiting.
Experimental data
Density Functional Theory (DFT) data
Calculations were performed using the B3LYP functional with the CEP-31G base set. Geometric optimization was performed in vacuum. Excitation energy at these optimized geometries was obtained using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). A continuous solvent model was applied in the TDDFT calculation to simulate tetrahydrofuran solvent. All calculations were performed using the program Gaussian (Gaussian). Table 3 shows HOMO and LUMO, along with the corresponding HOMO-LUMO energy gap and the corresponding singlet S1And triplet T1Calculated value of the wavelength of the light of the transition.
TABLE 3
The DFT results indicate that the emission of the compounds of the invention is blue shifted relative to the comparative compound. This fine tuning of the emission color is very important in the design of the emitting OLED material.
The calculations obtained using the set of DFT functions and the base set identified above are theoretical. Computing the combination protocol (gauss 09 with B3LYP and CEP-31G protocols as used herein) relies on the following assumptions: the electronic effects are additive and therefore Complete Basis Set (CBS) limits can be extrapolated using larger basis sets. However, when the objective of the study is to understand the HOMO, LUMO, S of a series of structurally related compounds1、T1The additive effect is expected to be similar when the bond dissociation energy, etc. varies. Thus, while the absolute error using B3LYP may be significant compared to other calculation methods, HOMO, LUMO, S calculated using the B3LYP protocol are expected1、T1And the relative difference between the bond dissociation energy values are expected to reproduce the experiment well.
