2. Description of the Related Art Between an anode electrode and a cathode electrode facing each other,
In recent years, an organic EL device having a light emitting layer made of an organic compound has been attracting attention as a device for realizing a large-area display device driven by a low voltage. In order to improve the efficiency of the device, Tang et al. Have a structure in which organic compounds having different carrier transport properties are stacked so that holes and electrons are injected from the anode and cathode in a well-balanced manner, and the layer thickness of the organic layer is 2000 Å or less. By doing so, we succeeded in obtaining high brightness and high efficiency, which is 1000 cd / m 2 and an external quantum efficiency of 1%, which is sufficient for practical use at an applied voltage of 10 V or less (Appl. Phys. Lett., 51, 913 (1987). ).

The organic EL device of the present invention having this new device structure has the following features which are greatly different from those of the conventional organic EL device. First, in a conventional organic EL device, the upper limit of quantum efficiency, which is the ratio of the number of electrons injected into the device to the number of emitted photons, is theoretically 1 (= 100%). There is no theoretical limit in the organic EL element. Because the hole (h
+) Injection means the extraction of electrons from the ground state molecular orbital of the organic molecule, and the electrons extracted from the ground state molecular orbital of the layer in contact with the cathode side of the equipotential surface are the layers in contact with the anode side. Is injected into the molecular orbital of the excited state and is reused to create a luminescent excited state. Therefore, the sum of the quantum efficiencies of the plurality of light emitting units partitioned by the layer defined as the equipotential surface is the quantum efficiency of the organic EL device of the present invention, and there is no upper limit to the value. That is, the organic EL element of the present invention is a conventional organic EL device.
The circuit is the same as the state where a plurality of elements are connected in series by metal conductors, but since the equipotential surface is a transparent film structure, the planar light emission similar to that of the conventional organic EL element is still generated. It is possible.

Of course, since the organic EL device of the present invention has a structure in which a plurality (n) of conventional organic EL devices are connected in series, the driving voltage is equal to the potential drop (consumption) of each light emitting unit. Sum of Vn) (V = V 1 + V 2 + ... V
It goes without saying that it is n). Therefore, in the device of the present invention, the low driving voltage of 10 V or less, which has been considered to be an advantage of the conventional organic EL device, cannot be realized as the number (n) of light emitting units increases. Of course. Nevertheless, the organic EL device of the present invention has some advantages over conventional organic EL devices. First, since the brightness of the organic EL element is almost proportional to the current density, a high current density is inevitably required to obtain high brightness. On the other hand, the device lifetime is inversely proportional to the current density (rather than the driving voltage), and thus high brightness light emission shortens the device lifetime. However, the organic EL element of the present invention can be realized, for example, when it is desired to obtain a brightness of n times, with n light emitting units having the same structure existing between the electrodes and keeping the current density substantially constant. At this time, it is natural that the driving voltage is n times or more as described above, but the merit that the n times higher brightness can be realized without sacrificing the life is immeasurable.

In addition, for example, when a display having a simple matrix structure is used as an application example, the decrease in current density can significantly reduce the voltage drop due to the wiring resistance and the substrate temperature increase as compared with the conventional case. The device structure of the present invention is advantageous. In addition, the fact that the voltage of the light emitting element portion is higher than that of the conventional element means that the voltage drop due to the wiring resistance does not significantly affect the luminance reduction, and the voltage drop of the wiring portion is small in the present invention. Combined with the characteristics of the element structure of 1., it also means that it is possible to realize a display device having a simple matrix structure by constant voltage control, which was impossible with conventional elements.

For example, when injecting electrons from each equipotential surface (4-n) to the positive electrode side, JP-A-10-270171 is used.
As disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication (Kokai) No. JP-A No. 2003-242242, the light emitting unit has an electron injection layer composed of a mixed layer of an organic compound and a metal functioning as an electron donating (donor) dopant, as a layer in contact with the equipotential surface on the anode side. It is preferable to have a structure.
Here, the donor dopant is preferably made of one or more metals selected from alkali metals, alkaline earth metals and rare earth metals having a work function of 4.2 eV or less. For details of these metals, see JP-A-10-27.
No. 0171. The molar ratio of the donor dopant metal in the electron injection layer is preferably 0.1-10 with respect to the organic compound. If the molar ratio is less than 0.1, the concentration of molecules reduced by the dopant (hereinafter referred to as reduced molecules) is too low, and the doping effect is small, and if it exceeds 10 times, the concentration of the dopant in the film is much higher than the concentration of organic molecules. And the concentration of reducing molecules in the film is extremely reduced, so that the doping effect is also reduced. By using the light emitting unit having the above-described electron injection layer, electron injection without an energy barrier is realized regardless of the work function of the material forming the equipotential surface.

A hole injection layer doped with an electron-accepting compound (Lewis acid compound) having a property capable of Lewis organic oxidation, which is proposed in JP-A 1-251067, is formed as a layer in contact with the cathode side of an equipotential surface.

Example 1 Similar to the reference example, the light emitting unit was formed on the ITO coated in the predetermined pattern shown in FIG. 9A through the metal mask for forming an organic substance [FIG. 9B]. 3-1 was formed into a film. That is, αNPD is 600Å, Alq: NKX-
A layer of 1595 = 100: 1 was sequentially formed to a thickness of 400 Å, and a mixed layer of bathocuproine and metallic cesium (Cs) was sequentially formed to a thickness of 300 Å. Next, as the equipotential surface 4-1 on the metal doping layer, the inventors of the present invention applied ITO to Japanese Patent Application No. 2001-1.
Using the sputtering method proposed in No. 42672, a film was formed to a thickness of 100 Å at a film forming rate of 4 Å / sec. This layer (equipotential surface) has a vertical length of 0.2 to match the light emitting area.
The film was formed using a metal mask [(c) in FIG. 9] because the film is formed only in a square shape having a width of 0.2 cm and a width of 0.2 cm. Next, the light emitting unit 3-2 was formed into a film by returning to the organic film forming metal mask ((b) of FIG. 9) and repeating the above steps once again. That is, αNPD is 600Å, Alq: NKX-1595 =
A 100: 1 layer and a mixed layer of bathocuproine and metallic cesium (Cs) were sequentially formed to a thickness of 400Å and 300Å, respectively. Finally, as the cathode electrode 5, Al was vapor-deposited to a thickness of 1000 Å at a vapor deposition rate of 10 Å / sec through a metal mask for forming a cathode [(d) of FIG. 9], and the result is shown in FIG. 9 (e). An organic EL device having a pattern was obtained. Through this step, the light emitting region was formed into a square shape having a length of 0.2 cm and a width of 0.2 cm.
FIG. 11 is a bird's-eye view of the organic EL element obtained in this Example 1.
The laminated structure is shown in FIG. In this organic EL device, a direct current voltage was applied between ITO as an anode electrode and Al as a cathode electrode to measure various characteristics of green light emission from the light emitting layer (Alq: co-deposited layer of NKX-1595). did.

This organic EL element, in which two light-emitting units are partitioned by equipotential surfaces, is compared with the organic EL element of the reference example in current efficiency (and thus quantum efficiency) at almost the same brightness. Then, the value was almost doubled. In addition, when the emission spectrum was observed, it almost coincided with the fluorescence spectrum of NKX-1595, but the half-width of the spectrum was slightly narrower than that of the reference example (see FIG. 10). The light emitted from the light-emitting unit 3-1 formed first is reflected by the cathode, and the reflected light at the cathode and the light emitted directly toward the substrate are approximately in phase with each other, which is considered to be due to the interference effect. .

In the organic EL device of the present invention, by disposing a plurality of light emitting units between electrodes by dividing them by equipotential surfaces,
While maintaining a constant current density, it is possible to realize a long-life element in a high-brightness region that could not be realized with conventional organic EL elements. When using lighting as an application example, voltage drop due to the resistance of the electrode material Since it is possible to reduce the size, uniform light emission in a large area is possible, and when a display with a simple matrix structure is used as an application example, the voltage drop and the temperature rise of the substrate due to the wiring resistance can be greatly reduced.
A large area simple matrix display, which was thought to be impossible with conventional devices, can also be realized.
