The embodiment of the application provides a quantum dot light-emitting device. Referring to fig. 1, the quantum dot light emitting device 100 includes a first electrode layer 110, a hole injection layer 120, a hole transport layer 130, a quantum dot light emitting layer 140, an electron transport layer 150, and a second electrode layer 160 disposed on a substrate 101.

The quantum dots of the quantum dot light-emitting layer are quantum dots with a core-shell structure and comprise a core layer and a shell layer. The quantum dots are Type I core-shell structure quantum dots, and the shell energy level can completely cover the core energy level. That is, the energy level widths (band gaps) of the core layer and the shell layer of the quantum dot become wider in order from the inside to the outside.
The quantum dot light emitting layer 140 includes a plurality of quantum dot layers, for example, 2, 3,4, or 5 quantum dot layers. In the direction from the hole transport layer 130 to the electron transport layer 150, the shell energy level of the quantum dots selected for each quantum dot layer in the plurality of quantum dot layers gradually widens. Furthermore, the total thickness of the quantum dot light-emitting layer, namely all the quantum dot layers is in the range of 5-80 nm; wherein the thickness of the quantum dot layer of each single layer is between 5 and 30 nm.

The white part of the quantum dot light emitting layer shown in fig. 3 represents the energy level position and thickness of the quantum dot shell layer, and the dark color represents the energy level position of the quantum dot light emitting core. The energy level width (band gap) of an individual material is generally measured by a method such as UPS; for example, referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 shows the bandgap of a common material.
In some embodiments, the spectral peak position fluctuations of all quantum dot layers in the quantum dot light emitting layer are ≦ 2nm. Further, in the quantum dot light-emitting layer, the fluctuation of the light half-peak width of all quantum dot layers is less than or equal to 1nm. That is, the luminescence peak positions of the core-shell structure quantum dots are consistent.

T95 refers to the time required for the device to decay from the initial luminance to 95% luminance. 1knit is 1000nit and 1000cd/m 2 And represents luminance. T95@1knit is the time required for the initial luminance to be set at 1000nit, decaying to 950nit, and is commonly used as an indicator of the lifetime of the device. If the lifetime is not ideal, T50@100nit is described, i.e. the time required to start a brightness of 100nit and decay to 50 nit.

It can be seen from table 1 that, after a quantum dot wide energy level shell and mechanisms with different thicknesses are introduced into a quantum dot light-emitting layer of the QLED device, the service life of the device is well maintained under the condition of keeping the luminous efficiency to be improved. Increasing the thickness of the quantum dot light-emitting layer can improve the light-emitting efficiency (CE @ 300knit) of the device under the conventional use brightness, and the service life is obviously reduced.
Specifically, according to comparison between comparative example 1 and comparative example 2, it can be found that although the efficiency of the QLED under the conventional use brightness can be effectively improved by increasing the thickness of the quantum dot light emitting layer in the QLED, the carrier injection of the device is unbalanced due to the adoption of the quantum dot light emitting layer in comparative example 2, so that the service life of the QLED is greatly reduced.
Specifically, according to comparison between examples 2 and 3 and the comparative example, it can be seen that the efficiency is improved after the thickness is increased, but the lifetime reaches the thousand-hour level due to the increase of the shell level increment (from the anode to the cathode).
In conclusion, by adjusting the quantum dot light-emitting layer in the quantum dot device, on the premise of maintaining the good service life of the device, the efficiency of the device under the conventional use brightness is greatly improved, the performance of the device is more in line with the commercial application standard, and the application of the quantum dot electroluminescent technology and the target of the display industry are further advanced.
This application increases quantum dot layer thickness through the mode of designing luminescent layer for multilayer quantum dot to promote quantum dot light emitting device efficiency under the conventional use luminance, the quantum dot that will be close to hole transport layer simultaneously selects the narrow quantum dot of shell energy level, and the HOMO energy level difference between hole transport layer and the quantum dot layer is littleer this moment, and the hole injection barrier reduces relatively, injects into more easily. On the other hand, the quantum dots close to the electron transport layer are quantum dots with wide shell energy level, and the electron injection barrier is increased, so that the injection balance of electrons and holes is effectively improved, and the long service life of the multilayer quantum dot device is realized.
