Description

Metal complex, organic electroluminescent element and consumer product
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of luminescent materials, and particularly relates to a metal complex, an organic electroluminescent element and a consumer product.
Background
Currently, optoelectronic devices utilizing organic materials are becoming increasingly popular, and many of the materials used to fabricate such devices are relatively inexpensive, so organic optoelectronic 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 full color displays. Industry standards for such displays require pixels adapted to emit a particular 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 light emitting layer (EML) device or a stacked structure. The color can be measured using CIE coordinates well known in the art, and the luminescent material in the prior art has poor luminous stability and low luminous efficiency.
The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances.

Detailed Description
In the organic electroluminescent element of the present invention, the constitution of the layer other than the layer containing the metal complex of the present invention is not limited at all, and a person skilled in the art can determine the constitution of other layers of the organic electroluminescent element as necessary based on the general knowledge of the art in the field.
Generally, an OLED comprises at least one organic layer disposed between and electrically connected to an anode and a cathode. Fig. 1 shows a schematic diagram of an organic light emitting device 100. The illustrations are not necessarily drawn to scale. The device 100 may include a substrate 101, an anode 102, a hole injection layer 103, a hole transport layer 104, an electron blocking layer 105, a light emitting layer 106, an electron transport layer 107, an electron injection layer 108, a cathode 109, and a capping layer (CPL) 110.

The device includes a substrate 201, an anode 202, a hole injection layer 203, a hole transport layer 204, a first light emitting layer 205, an electron transport layer 206, a charge generation layer 207, a hole injection layer 208, a hole transport layer 209, a second light emitting layer 210, an electron transport layer 211, an electron injection layer 212, and a cathode 213. The device 200 may be prepared by sequentially depositing the described layers. Since the most common OLED devices have one single color light emitting layer or three light emitting layers of three primary colors, while the device 200 has two light emitting layers of the same color. In the corresponding layers of device 200, materials similar to those described with respect to device 100 may be used. Fig. 2 provides one example of how some layers may be added from the structure of device 100.
The simple layered structure illustrated in fig. 1 and 2 is provided as a non-limiting example, and it should be understood that embodiments of the present invention can be used in conjunction with a wide variety of other structures. The particular materials and structures described are exemplary in nature, and other materials and structures may be used. A functional OLED may be realized by combining the various layers described in different ways, or several layers may be omitted altogether, 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 will be understood that combinations of materials may be used, such as mixtures of a host and a dopant, or more generally, mixtures. Also, 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 204 transports holes and injects holes into light emitting layer 205, and may be described as a hole transport layer or an electron blocking 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 in fig. 1 and 2.
Structures and materials not specifically described, such as PLEDs comprising polymeric materials, may also be used. As another example, OLEDs having a single organic layer or multiple stacks may be used. 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 optical coupling.
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, organic vapor deposition methods, or application of one or more layers by means of carrier gas sublimation, where at 10 -5 The material is applied at a pressure between mbar and 1 bar. A particular example of this method is the organic vapour jet printing method, in which the material is applied directly through a nozzle and is therefore structured. Other suitable deposition methods include creating one or more layers, for example by spin coating, or by any desired printing method, such as screen printing, flexographic printing, lithography, photo-induced thermal imaging, thermal transfer, ink jet printing, or nozzle printing. Soluble compounds, for example obtained by appropriate substitution. These methods are also particularly suitable for oligomers, dendrimers and polymers. Furthermore, hybrid methods are possible, in which one or more layers are applied, for example, from solution and one or more further layers are applied by vapor deposition.
Devices fabricated according to embodiments of the present invention may further optionally include a barrier layer. One use of the barrier layer is to protect the electrodes and organic layers from damage due to exposure to harmful substances in the environment, including moisture, vapor, and/or gas. The barrier layer may be deposited on, under, or beside the substrate, electrode, or any other portion of the device, including the edges. The barrier layer may comprise a single layer or multiple layers. The barrier layer can be formed by various known chemical vapor deposition techniques and can include compositions having a single phase as well as compositions having multiple phases. Any suitable material or combination of materials may be used for the barrier layer. The barrier layer may incorporate inorganic or organic compounds or both. Preferably, the barrier layer comprises a mixture of polymeric and non-polymeric materials. To be considered a mixture, the aforementioned polymeric and non-polymeric materials that make up the barrier layer should be deposited under the same conditions and/or at the same time. The weight ratio of polymeric material to non-polymeric material may be in the range of 95/5-5/95. In one example, the mixture of polymeric and non-polymeric materials consists essentially of polymeric and inorganic silicon.
In any of the above-mentioned compounds used in each layer of the above-described OLED devices, 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.
The materials and structures described herein can be applied in devices other than OLEDs. For example, other optoelectronic devices such as organic solar cells and organic photodetectors may use the materials and structures. Further, organic devices such as organic transistors may use the materials and structures.
