An Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) is an electroluminescent device based on Organic materials, and its basic structure includes an anode, a cathode and a Light-Emitting layer, when a voltage is applied to the anode and the cathode, under the action of an electric field, holes and electrons are injected from the anode and the cathode, respectively, and are transmitted to the Light-Emitting layer, and when the two meet at the Light-Emitting layer, they combine to generate excitons, exciting the Light-Emitting molecules to generate visible Light.
In the OLED display panel, in order to improve product competitiveness, device efficiency needs to be further improved, and product power consumption needs to be reduced. However, in the existing OLED display panel, due to the fact that the transmission rates of the light-emitting host material to electrons and holes are different, the problem that the holes and electrons are not balanced after the light-emitting host material is doped with the guest material exists, and therefore the exciton concentration in the light-emitting layer is low, the device efficiency is low, and the product power consumption is high.
In order to solve the above problems, embodiments of the light emitting device and the display panel are provided, and the following description will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a light emitting device according to an embodiment of the present application.
The embodiment provides a light emitting device 10 including a first electrode 110, a second electrode 130, and a light emitting structure layer 120 between the first electrode 110 and the second electrode 130.
The light emitting structure layer 120 includes a light emitting layer 123, a first carrier function layer 121, and a carrier adjusting layer 122. The first carrier function layer 121 is located between the first electrode 110 and the light emitting layer 123, and the carrier adjusting layer 122 is located between the light emitting layer 123 and the first carrier function layer 121. Under the action of the applied electric field, first carriers are injected from the first electrode 110 into the first carrier functional layer 121 and transported toward the light emitting layer 123, and second carriers are injected from the second electrode 130 and transported toward the light emitting layer 123. The light emitting layer 123 includes a host material and a guest material, and a first carrier mobility of the host material is smaller than a second carrier mobility of the host material. The material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 and the host material are both selected from the same color light emitting host material group.
It is understood that the material of the light emitting layer 123 of the light emitting device generally includes a host material and a guest material, the host material mainly transfers energy to the guest to make the guest emit light, and the guest material is used for determining the light emitting color.
One of the first electrode 110 and the second electrode 130 is an anode and the other is a cathode, and one of the first carrier and the second carrier is a hole and the other is an electron. When the first electrode 110 is an anode, the second electrode 130 is a cathode, the first carriers are holes injected from the anode, and the second carriers are electrons injected from the cathode.
The light emitting device 10 includes a plurality of light emitting devices having different emission colors, and the light emitting device 10 may be a red light emitting device, a green light emitting device, or a blue light emitting device. It is understood that the light emitting color of the light emitting device 10 depends on the light emitting color of the light emitting layer 123, and if the light emitting device 10 is a green light emitting device, the host material of the light emitting layer 123 is selected from the group of green light emitting host materials, and if the light emitting device 10 is a red light emitting device, the host material of the light emitting layer 123 is selected from the group of red light emitting host materials.
According to the light emitting device 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application, under the condition that the first carrier mobility of the host material of the light emitting layer is smaller than the second carrier mobility of the host material, the carrier adjusting layer 122 is disposed between the light emitting layer 123 and the first carrier functional layer 121, and since the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 and the host material of the light emitting layer 123 are both selected from the same color light emitting host material group, the potential barrier between the carrier adjusting layer 122 and the light emitting layer 123 is low, the first carrier can enter the light emitting layer 123 more easily through the carrier adjusting layer 122, and then the concentration of the first carrier injected into the light emitting layer 123 can be increased, the concentration of excitons in the light emitting layer 123 is increased, and the light emitting efficiency of the light emitting device 10 is improved.
The host material of the light-emitting layer 123 may be one of the light-emitting host materials of the same color, or may be a mixture of two or more of the light-emitting host materials of the same color. The same color light emitting host material can be a host material suitable for red light or a host material suitable for green light or a host material suitable for blue light.
In some alternative embodiments, the same color light emitting host material group includes a first sub-host material and a second sub-host material, the host material of the light emitting layer 123 may include a first sub-host material and a second sub-host material, and a first carrier mobility of the first sub-host material may be smaller than a second carrier mobility of the first sub-host material, and a first carrier mobility of the second sub-host material may be larger than the second carrier mobility of the second sub-host material. The first sub-host material and the second sub-host material are two different materials in the same color light-emitting host material.
The main material of the light-emitting layer 123 adopts two different materials in the light-emitting main material with the same color, and the two different materials in the light-emitting main material with the same color are different carrier transport type materials, so that an exciton recombination region can be adjusted to the middle of the light-emitting layer 123, the deviation of the exciton recombination region is reduced, the service life of the device can be prolonged, the balance of hole electrons can be improved, and the efficiency of the device can be optimized.
When the host material of the light-emitting layer 123 is two or more different materials in the light-emitting host material with the same color, the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 may be two or more different materials in the light-emitting host material with the same color, or may be one material in the light-emitting host material with the same color, which is not specifically limited in the present application.
In some alternative embodiments, the first carrier mobility of the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 may be smaller than the second carrier mobility of the host material of the light emitting layer 123, which is more favorable for the balance of hole electrons in the light emitting layer 123.
Alternatively, to facilitate the screening of materials and thus the fabrication of the light emitting device 10, the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 and the host material may be completely the same.
In other alternative embodiments, the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 and the host material may not be completely the same, the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 may be selected from one of the light emitting host materials of the same color, the light emitting host material and the host material of the light emitting layer 123 belong to the same color light emitting host material group, and the first carrier mobility of the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 may be greater than the second carrier mobility of the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122, which is more favorable for the balance of hole electrons in the light emitting layer 123.
It is understood that when the first electrode 110 is an anode, the second electrode 130 is a cathode, the first carriers are holes injected from the anode, and the second carriers are electrons injected from the cathode, the hole mobility of the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 is greater than the electron mobility; when the first electrode 110 is a cathode, the second electrode 130 is an anode, the first carriers are electrons injected from the cathode, and the second carriers are holes injected from the anode, the electron mobility of the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 is greater than the hole mobility.
Optionally, when the host material includes a first sub-host material and a second sub-host material, the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 may be the second sub-host material, so as to facilitate the screening of the materials. Of course, the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 may also be a third sub-host material, the third sub-host material is different from the first sub-host material and the second sub-host material, the third sub-host material, the first sub-host material and the second sub-host material all belong to the same color light emitting host material group, and the first carrier mobility of the third sub-host material is greater than the second carrier mobility of the third sub-host material, which is also within the protection scope of the present application.
Note that the thicknesses of the carrier adjusting layer 122 and the light emitting layer 123 are not particularly limited in the present application. In some alternative embodiments, the thickness of the carrier adjusting layer 122 may be set according to the thickness of the light emitting layer 123. Alternatively, the ratio of the thickness of the carrier adjusting layer 122 to the thickness of the light emitting layer 123 may be set to 1:15 to 1: 3.
compared with the light-emitting layer 123 of the existing light-emitting device 10, the light-emitting device 10 provided by the embodiment of the application can reduce the thickness of the light-emitting layer 123 by 5nm to 10nm, so that the working voltage of the light-emitting device 10 can be reduced. Alternatively, the thickness of the carrier adjusting layer 122 may coincide with the reduced thickness of the light emitting layer 123.
Alternatively, the thickness of the carrier adjusting layer 122 may be 5nm to 10 nm. Alternatively, the thickness of the light emitting layer 123 may be 30nm to 45 nm.
Fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a light emitting device according to another embodiment of the present application.
The specific structure of the first carrier function layer 121 is various, and the present application does not specifically limit this. It is understood that the first carrier function layer 121 may include any one of the first carrier injection layer 121a, the first carrier transport layer 121b, and the second carrier blocking layer 121 c. The first carrier injection layer 121a helps to lower a first carrier injection barrier from the first electrode 110 to the first carrier transport layer, increases the first carrier injection, enables the first carriers to be efficiently injected from the first electrode 110 into the first carrier transport layer 121b, the first carrier transport layer 121b is responsible for transporting the first carriers to the light emitting layer 123, and the second carrier blocking layer 121c is capable of blocking the second carriers from the second electrode 130 at the interface of the light emitting layer 123 of the light emitting device.
Alternatively, the first carrier function layer 121 may include a first carrier transport layer 121b, and the carrier adjusting layer 122 may be located between the first carrier transport layer 121b and the light emitting layer 123; so that when a voltage is applied to the first electrode 110 and the second electrode 130, the first carriers injected from the first electrode 110 migrate to the carrier adjusting layer 122 through the first carrier transporting layer 121b and then migrate to the light emitting layer 123 through the carrier adjusting layer 122.
Fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a light emitting device according to still another embodiment of the present application.
In some alternative embodiments, the light emitting structure layer 120 may include a second carrier function layer 124, the second carrier function layer 124 being located between the second electrode 130 and the light emitting layer 123; when a voltage is applied to the first electrode 110 and the second electrode 130, second carriers are injected from the second electrode 130 to the second carrier functional layer 124 and migrate to the light emitting layer 123 through the second carrier functional layer 124.
The specific structure of the second carrier functional layer 124 is various, and the present application does not specifically limit this. It is understood that the second carrier function layer 124 may include any one of the second carrier injection layer 124a, the second carrier transport layer 124b, and the first carrier blocking layer 124 c. The second carrier injection layer 124a helps to lower a second carrier injection barrier from the second electrode 130 to the second carrier transport layer, and the increase in the second carrier injection enables the second carriers to be efficiently injected from the second electrode 130 into the second carrier transport layer 124b light emitting device, the second carrier transport layer 124b is responsible for transporting the second carriers to the light emitting layer 123, and the first carrier blocking layer 124c is capable of blocking the first carriers from the first electrode 110 at the light emitting layer 123 interface of the device.
In the light emitting device 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application, one of the first electrode 110 and the second electrode 130 is an anode, and the other is a cathode. It is to be understood that, when the first electrode 110 is an anode and the second electrode 130 is a cathode, the first carriers are holes and the second carriers are electrons, the first carrier functional layer 121 may include any one of a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, and an electron blocking layer, and the second carrier functional layer 124 may include any one of an electron injection layer, an electron transport layer, and a hole blocking layer. When the first electrode 110 is a cathode and the second electrode 130 is an anode, the first carrier is an electron and the second carrier is a hole, the first carrier functional layer 121 may include any one of an electron injection layer, an electron transport layer, and a hole blocking layer, and the second carrier functional layer 124 may include any one of a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, and an electron blocking layer.
In some alternative embodiments, the first electrode 110 may be an anode, the first carrier is a hole injected from the anode, the second electrode 130 may be a cathode, the second carrier is an electron injected from the cathode, the hole mobility of the host material of the light emitting layer 123 is smaller than the electron mobility of the host material, the first carrier functional layer 121 is located between the anode and the carrier adjusting layer 122, and the carrier adjusting layer 122 is located between the light emitting layer 123 and the first carrier functional layer 121.
The carrier adjusting layer 122 is disposed between the light emitting layer 123 and the anode, and holes can easily enter the light emitting layer 123 through the carrier adjusting layer, so that the concentration of the holes in the light emitting layer 123 is increased, the concentration of excitons in the light emitting layer 123 can be increased, and the light emitting efficiency of the light emitting device 10 is improved.
It is understood that, when the carrier adjusting layer 122 is not provided, since the hole mobility of the host material is smaller than the electron mobility of the host material, and the hole concentration in the light emitting layer 123 is low after the host material is mixed with the doping guest material, the exciton recombination region of the light emitting device 10 may be shifted toward the anode side, resulting in low efficiency of the light emitting device 10.
Alternatively, when the host material of the light emitting layer 123 and the carrier adjusting layer 122 material are screened, the hole mobility of both the host material and the carrier adjusting layer 122 material may be greater than or equal to 7 × 10-7cm2(vs), the electron mobility of the host material and the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 may each be greater than or equal to 1 × 10-6cm2Vs to ensure the luminous efficiency of the light emitting device 10.

In order to verify the practical effect of the design, the following first comparative example, first experimental example and second experimental example are designed: the green light emitting devices of the first comparative example, the first experimental example, and the second experimental example are all green light emitting devices, and hole mobility of a host material of the light emitting layer 123 is smaller than electron mobility of the host material of the light emitting layer 123, the green light emitting device of the first comparative example does not include the carrier adjusting layer 122, the green light emitting devices of the first and the second experimental examples include the carrier adjusting layer 122, and a material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 is completely the same as that of the host material of the light emitting layer 123, a thickness of the light emitting layer 123 in the green light emitting device of the first experimental example is smaller than that of the light emitting layer 123 in the green light emitting device of the first comparative example, and a thickness of the light emitting layer 123 in the green light emitting device of the second experimental example is equal to that of the light emitting layer 123 in the green light emitting device of the first comparative example. Efficiency tests are respectively carried out on the green light-emitting devices corresponding to the first comparative example, the first experimental example and the second experimental example, the test results are shown in fig. 4, and it can be seen from fig. 4 that compared with the first comparative example, the luminous efficiencies of the first experimental example and the second experimental example are both improved; compared with the second experimental example, since the thickness of the light emitting layer 123 in the green light emitting device of the first experimental example is smaller, that is, the thickness of the light emitting layer 123 doped with the guest material is reduced, the operating voltage of the light emitting device can be reduced, and thus the light emitting efficiency of the light emitting device is higher at the same operating voltage.

It is understood that, when the carrier adjusting layer 122 is not provided, since the electron mobility of the host material is smaller than the hole mobility of the host material, and the doping guest material in the host material is mixed, the electron concentration in the light emitting layer 123 is low, and the exciton recombination region of the light emitting device 10 is shifted to the cathode side, resulting in low efficiency of the light emitting device 10.
Alternatively, when the host material of the light emitting layer 123 and the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 are screened, electron mobility in both the host material and the material of the carrier adjusting layer 122 may be greater than or equal to 5 × 10-7cm2(vs), the hole mobilities of the host material and the material of the carrier-adjusting layer 122 may both be greater than or equal to 1 × 10-5cm2Vs to ensure the luminous efficiency of the light emitting device 10.
