Description

Metal complex and application thereof in photoelectric device
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of organic photoelectric materials, in particular to a metal complex and application thereof in photoelectric devices.
Background
Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs), which are carrier double injection type light emitting devices, are also known as organic electroluminescent devices. At a certain driving voltage, electrons are injected from the cathode, holes are injected from the anode, and then both meet at the organic light emitting layer and recombine to form excitons (i.e., hole-electron pairs). The excitons release energy, return to the ground state in the form of a radiative transition, and fluoresce or phosphorescence. In order to increase the luminous efficiency of organic light emitting diodes, various fluorescent and phosphorescent based luminescent material systems have been developed. The organic light emitting diode using the fluorescent material has high reliability, but the internal electroluminescent quantum efficiency thereof is limited to 25% under the excitation of an electric field. In contrast, since the branching ratio of the singlet excited state and the triplet excited state of excitons is 1:3, the organic light emitting diode using the phosphorescent material can achieve almost 100% internal light emission quantum efficiency. The existing luminescent layer material mostly adopts a host-guest doping mode, and a metal complex is formed by doping heavy metal centers, so that spin orbit coupling can be improved, intersystem crossing is easy to occur under electric field excitation, and triplet excitation is effectively obtained.
Complexes based on iridium (III) are a class of materials widely used in high efficiency OLEDs, with higher efficiency and stability. Baldo et al report high quantum efficiency OLEDs using fac-tris (2-phenylpyridine) iridium (III) [ Ir (ppy) 3 ] as the phosphorescent light-emitting material, 4'-N, N' -dicarbazole-biphenyl (4, 4'-N, N' -diarbazole-biphenyl) (CBP) as the host material (appl. Phys. Lett.1999,75,4). Sky blue complex iridium (III) bis [2- (4 ',6' -difluorophenyl) pyridine-N, C2] -picolinate (FIrpic) is another well known phosphorescent dopant material that exhibits extremely high photoluminescence quantum efficiencies of about 60% in solution and almost 100% in solid films when doped into high triplet energy matrices (appl. Phys. Lett.2001,79,2082). Although iridium (III) systems based on 2-phenylpyridine and its derivatives have been used in large amounts for the preparation of OLEDs, device performance, especially lifetime, still needs to be improved.

Characterization of OLED devices
The current-voltage-luminance (JVL) characteristics of the OLED devices 1 to 8 and OLED-REF are characterized by a characterization apparatus while recording important parameters such as external quantum efficiency and device lifetime. Lt95@1000nits is the time at constant current at which the luminance drops from an initial luminance of 1000nits to 95% of the initial luminance. The relative parameters of the OLED device are shown in the following table:
As can be seen from the above table data, compared with the device made of the OLED-REF metal complex, the external quantum efficiency and the device lifetime of the OLED device are both significantly improved by using the metal complex material provided by the invention as the doping material of the EML (light emitting layer).
The reason for the beneficial effect is inferred to be that the structure of the metal complex provided by the invention contains a benzoisoquinoline group to replace, so that charge transmission in the device is assisted, and the charge can be effectively used, thereby improving the luminous efficiency of the device, reducing the starting voltage and prolonging the service life of the device.
