Description

Phosphorescent material composition and organic electroluminescent device comprising same
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of organic electroluminescent display, in particular to a phosphorescent material composition and an organic electroluminescent device comprising the same.
Background
Organic electronic devices include, but are not limited to, the following classes: organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs), organic field effect transistors (O-FETs), organic Light Emitting Transistors (OLETs), organic photovoltaics (COPVs), dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), organic optical detectors, organic photoreceptors, organic field effect devices (OFQDs), light emitting electrochemical cells (LEGS), organic laser diodes, and organic plasma light emitting devices.
In 1987, tang et al from Ishmann Kodak company in USA reported for the first time a green electroluminescent device made of a double-layer organic film, the device uses Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) as an anode, an amorphous pinhole-free aromatic diamine film with a thickness of 75nm is evaporated on the anode for hole transport, then an 8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum film with a thickness of 60nm is further coated on the aromatic diamine film for an electron transport layer and a light emitting layer, and a magnesium-silver alloy is used as a cathode, the double-layer film structure successfully reduces the starting voltage to 5.5V, and high-radiation light emission is realized (high-radiation light emission is realized: (A)>1000cd·m -2 ) The wavelength is 550nm, the external quantum efficiency reaches 1.0 percent, and the method has great practical significance. In 1994, KH1do et al from japan produced white light-emitting organic electroluminescent devices for the first time. The fluorescent dyes with 3 colors of blue, green and orange are doped in a poly (N-vinyl carbazole) (PVK) film to be used as a hole transport layer and an emission layer, 1,2, 4-triazole derivative (TAZ) is used as a hole blocking layer, 8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum (Alq 3) is used as an electron transport layer, the device is composed of a glass substrate/ITO/PVK/TAZ/Alq 3/Mg: ag multilayer structure, under the drive voltage of 14V, white light emission which covers a wide visible light region and has the brightness of 3400 cd-m & lt-2 & gt is obtained, and the high-brightness white emission is realized by doping fluorescent compounds with multiple colors in a polymer film to form a single light-emitting layer. This discovery by KIdo et al adds a heavy jet of color to the organic electroluminescent applicationThe pen opens the door of the organic light-emitting device in the field of illumination, and promotes the further development of the organic light-emitting device.
Light emitted from the organic electroluminescent device is also classified into fluorescence and phosphorescence, and light emitted by energy possessed by singlet excitons is fluorescence, while light emitted by energy possessed by singlet and triplet excitons is phosphorescence. Since the number of singlet and triplet states formed by excitons has a fixed value of 1:3, the internal quantum efficiency of a fluorescent device using only singlet excitons is theoretically only 25% at the highest, whereas the internal quantum efficiency when phosphorescence is emitted can reach 100%.
At present, both an organometallic complex having phosphorescent emission and an organic electroluminescent device are reported, but in many applications such as TV and lighting, the OLED lifetime is insufficient and there is still a need for higher efficiency OLEDs. Typically, the higher the luminance of an OLED, the shorter the lifetime of the OLED. Therefore, for a display that is used for a long time and has high resolution, an OLED having high luminous efficiency or long lifetime is required.
In the prior art, a large number of phosphorescent light-emitting materials are disclosed, and when the materials are applied to an organic electroluminescent device, some materials have longer service life and some materials have higher external quantum efficiency, but the materials often cannot have both the service life and the efficiency, so that the materials need to be selected according to requirements in practical application.
The present inventors have found, through intensive studies, that an organic electroluminescent device having significantly improved overall properties can be obtained by using at least two light-emitting guest materials of specific structures in a light-emitting layer at the same time.

Figure BDA0003869897960000281
From the device data we can find that: examples 1-8 the use of the combinations of the present invention as dopants, regardless of voltage, current efficiency or lifetime, was improved over the use of a single metal complex as dopant, compared to the device data of comparative examples 1-3, providing unexpected results in device performance.
As can be seen from the device data of examples 1 to 3, the obtained device data are also different by changing the ratio of the two dopants to the total weight of the light emitting layer, and when the doping ratio of the compound I-1 and the compound I-6 is 1.
It can be seen from the comparison of examples 1, 7, 8 and 4, 5, 6 that the more similar the structures of the two compounds are, the better the performance of the device prepared by using the double dopant, especially in example 1, the difference between the ligand structures of the two doped compounds is only one isopropyl group, the current efficiency of the device prepared by the combination of the two doped compounds is obviously improved, and the service life is more unexpected. The similar coordination modes of the double-dopant structure in example 8 are the same, and the similar coordination modes of the double-dopant structure in example 7 are different, so that the effect of example 8 is improved better than that of example 7.
In summary, the combination of the first metal complex and the second metal complex disclosed in the present invention can show excellent overall device performance in devices, such as lower driving voltage, higher efficiency and ultra-long device lifetime, because the two compounds can be well matched with each other in terms of energy.
