Description

  The present invention relates to an organic electroluminescence device, a compound, a composition, and an electronic device.

When a voltage is applied to an organic electroluminescence element (hereinafter also referred to as “organic EL element”), holes are injected from the anode into the light emitting layer, and electrons are injected from the cathode into the light emitting layer. Then, in the light emitting layer, the injected holes and electrons are recombined to form excitons. At this time, singlet excitons are generated at a rate of 25% and triplet excitons are generated at a rate of 75% according to the statistical rule of electron spin.
Fluorescent organic EL elements that use light emitted from singlet excitons are being applied to full-color displays such as mobile phones and televisions, but the internal quantum efficiency of 25% is said to be the limit. In addition to singlet excitons, triplet excitons are used, and organic EL devices are expected to emit light more efficiently.

Against this background, highly efficient fluorescent organic EL elements using delayed fluorescence have been proposed and studied.
For example, a TADF (Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence, heat activated delayed fluorescence) mechanism has been studied. In this TADF mechanism, when a material having a small energy difference (ΔST) between a singlet level and a triplet level is used, a reverse intersystem crossing from a triplet exciton to a singlet exciton is thermally generated. It is a mechanism that utilizes the phenomenon. The thermally activated delayed fluorescence is described in, for example, “Adachi Chinami, Ed.,“ Physical properties of organic semiconductor devices ”, Kodansha, issued April 1, 2012, pages 261-262”. For example, Non-Patent Document 1 discloses an organic EL element using the TADF mechanism.

The organic EL device disclosed in Non-Patent Document 1 includes a TADF compound as an assist dopant and a perylene derivative (TBPe; 2,5,8,11-tetra-tert-butylperylene as a light emitting material).
And a light emitting layer containing DPEPO (bis- (2- (diphenylphosphino) phenyl) ether oxide) as a host material.

In addition, in a conventional fluorescent organic EL element, a light emitting material for a light emitting element has been studied. Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2, and Patent Document 3 describe acenaphtho [1,2-k] benzo [e] acephenanthrene derivatives as organic compounds used in the light-emitting element.
The organic compounds described in Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2, and Patent Document 3 are used as light emitting materials in conventional fluorescent organic EL elements. The organic EL elements in Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2, and Patent Document 3 do not use the TADF mechanism.

Delayed fluorescence Delayed fluorescence (thermally activated delayed fluorescence) is described on pages 261 to 268 of “Device properties of organic semiconductors” (edited by Chiba Adachi, published by Kodansha). In that document, if the energy difference ΔE ₁₃ between the excited singlet state and the excited triplet state of the fluorescent material can be reduced, the reverse energy from the excited triplet state to the excited singlet state, which usually has a low transition probability. It is described that migration occurs with high efficiency, and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) is expressed. In addition, FIG. 10.38 in this document explains the mechanism of delayed fluorescence generation. The first compound in the present embodiment is a compound that exhibits thermally activated delayed fluorescence generated by such a mechanism.
The delayed fluorescence emission can be confirmed by transient PL (Photo Luminescence) measurement.

The behavior of delayed fluorescence can also be analyzed based on the decay curve obtained from the transient PL measurement. Transient PL measurement is a method of measuring the decay behavior (transient characteristics) of PL emission after irradiating a sample with a pulse laser and exciting it and stopping the irradiation. PL emission in the TADF material is classified into a light emission component from a singlet exciton generated by the first PL excitation and a light emission component from a singlet exciton generated via a triplet exciton. The lifetime of singlet excitons generated by the first PL excitation is on the order of nanoseconds and is very short. Therefore, light emitted from the singlet excitons is rapidly attenuated after irradiation with the pulse laser.
On the other hand, delayed fluorescence is gradually attenuated due to light emission from singlet excitons generated via a long-lived triplet exciton. Thus, there is a large time difference between the light emission from the singlet exciton generated by the first PL excitation and the light emission from the singlet exciton generated via the triplet exciton. Therefore, the emission intensity derived from delayed fluorescence can be obtained.

FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of an exemplary apparatus for measuring transient PL.
The transient PL measurement apparatus 100 of the present embodiment includes a pulse laser unit 101 that can irradiate light of a predetermined wavelength, a sample chamber 102 that houses a measurement sample, a spectrometer 103 that separates light emitted from the measurement sample, A streak camera 104 for forming a two-dimensional image and a personal computer 105 for capturing and analyzing the two-dimensional image are provided. Note that the measurement of the transient PL is not limited to the apparatus described in this embodiment.
The sample accommodated in the sample chamber 102 is obtained by forming a thin film in which a doping material is doped at a concentration of 12 mass% with respect to a matrix material on a quartz substrate.
The thin film sample accommodated in the sample chamber 102 is irradiated with a pulse laser from the pulse laser unit 101 to excite the doping material. The emitted light is extracted in a direction of 90 degrees with respect to the irradiation direction of the excitation light, the extracted light is dispersed by the spectroscope 103, and a two-dimensional image is formed in the streak camera 104. As a result, a two-dimensional image can be obtained in which the vertical axis corresponds to time, the horizontal axis corresponds to wavelength, and the bright spot corresponds to emission intensity. When this two-dimensional image is cut out along a predetermined time axis, an emission spectrum in which the vertical axis represents the emission intensity and the horizontal axis represents the wavelength can be obtained. Further, when the two-dimensional image is cut out along the wavelength axis, an attenuation curve (transient PL) in which the vertical axis represents the logarithm of the emission intensity and the horizontal axis represents time can be obtained.

  For example, the thin film sample A was prepared as described above using the following reference compound H1 as a matrix material and the following reference compound D1 as a doping material, and transient PL measurement was performed.

Here, the attenuation curve was analyzed using the thin film sample A and the thin film sample B described above. The thin film sample B was prepared as described above using the following reference compound H2 as a matrix material and the reference compound D1 as a doping material.
FIG. 3 shows attenuation curves obtained from the transient PL measured for the thin film sample A and the thin film sample B.

As described above, by the transient PL measurement, it is possible to obtain a light emission decay curve with the vertical axis representing the emission intensity and the horizontal axis representing the time. Based on this emission decay curve, the fluorescence intensity of fluorescence emitted from the singlet excited state generated by photoexcitation and delayed fluorescence emitted from the singlet excited state generated by reverse energy transfer via the triplet excited state The ratio can be estimated. In the delayed fluorescent material, the ratio of the delayed fluorescence intensity that gradually attenuates to the fluorescence intensity that decays quickly is somewhat large.
The delayed fluorescence emission amount in this embodiment can be obtained using the apparatus of FIG. The first compound is excited with pulsed light having a wavelength that is absorbed by the first compound (light emitted from a pulse laser), and then Prompt light emission (immediate light emission) immediately observed from the excited state. After the excitation, there is delay light emission (delayed light emission) that is not observed immediately but is observed thereafter. In the present embodiment, the amount of Prompt luminescence (immediate emission) and _{X P,} the amount of Delay emission (delayed luminescence) is taken as _{X D,} the value of X D / _{X P} is 0.05 or more Is preferred.
The amounts of Prompt light emission and Delay light emission can be obtained by the same method as described in “Nature 492, 234-238, 2012”. In addition, the apparatus used for calculation of the amount of Promp light emission and Delay light emission is not limited to the apparatus described in the said literature.
The sample used for the measurement of delayed fluorescence is, for example, co-evaporated the first compound and the following compound TH-2 on a quartz substrate so that the ratio of the first compound is 12% by mass, A sample in which a thin film having a thickness of 100 nm is formed can be used.

S ₁ (M1)> S ₁ (M2) (Equation 1)

  When the organic EL element 1 of the present embodiment emits light, it is preferable that the second compound mainly emits light in the light emitting layer 5.

-Relationship between triplet energy and energy gap at 77 [K] Here, the relationship between triplet energy and energy gap at 77 [K] will be described. In the present embodiment, the energy gap at 77 [K] is different from the normally defined triplet energy.
The triplet energy is measured as follows. First, a sample in which a solution in which a compound to be measured is dissolved in an appropriate solvent is enclosed in a quartz glass tube is prepared. With respect to this sample, a phosphorescence spectrum (vertical axis: phosphorescence emission intensity, horizontal axis: wavelength) is measured at a low temperature (77 [K]), and a tangent line is drawn with respect to the rising edge on the short wavelength side of the phosphorescence spectrum, Based on the wavelength value at the intersection of the tangent and the horizontal axis, triplet energy is calculated from a predetermined conversion formula.
Here, the delayed fluorescent compound used in the present embodiment is preferably a compound having a small ΔST. When ΔST is small, intersystem crossing and reverse intersystem crossing easily occur even in a low temperature (77 [K]) state, and an excited singlet state and an excited triplet state coexist. As a result, the spectrum measured in the same manner as described above includes light emission from both the excited singlet state and the excited triplet state, and it is difficult to distinguish clearly from which state the light is emitted. Basically, the triplet energy value is considered dominant.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the normal triplet energy T and the measurement method are the same, but in order to distinguish the difference in the strict meaning, the value measured as follows is referred to as an energy gap T _77K. . A compound to be measured is dissolved in EPA (diethyl ether: isopentane: ethanol = 5: 5: 2 (volume ratio)) so as to have a concentration of 10 μmol / L, and this solution is placed in a quartz cell and measured. A sample is used. With respect to this measurement sample, a phosphorescence spectrum (vertical axis: phosphorescence emission intensity, horizontal axis: wavelength) is measured at a low temperature (77 [K]), and a tangent line is drawn with respect to the rising edge of the phosphorescence spectrum on the short wavelength side. Based on the wavelength value λ _edge [nm] at the intersection of the tangent and the horizontal axis, the energy amount calculated from the following conversion formula (F1) is defined as an energy gap T _77K at 77 [K].
Conversion formula (F1): T _77K [eV] = 1239.85 / λ _edge

The tangent to the rising edge on the short wavelength side of the phosphorescence spectrum is drawn as follows. When moving on the spectrum curve from the short wavelength side of the phosphorescence spectrum to the maximum value on the shortest wavelength side among the maximum values of the spectrum, tangents at each point on the curve are considered toward the long wavelength side. The slope of this tangent line increases as the curve rises (that is, as the vertical axis increases). A tangent drawn at a point where the value of the slope takes a maximum value (that is, a tangent at the inflection point) is a tangent to the rising edge of the phosphorescence spectrum on the short wavelength side.
Note that the maximum point having a peak intensity of 15% or less of the maximum peak intensity of the spectrum is not included in the above-mentioned maximum value on the shortest wavelength side, and has the maximum slope value closest to the maximum value on the shortest wavelength side. The tangent drawn at the point where the value is taken is taken as the tangent to the rising edge of the phosphorescence spectrum on the short wavelength side.
For measurement of phosphorescence, an F-4500 spectrofluorometer main body manufactured by Hitachi High-Technology Co., Ltd. can be used. The measuring device is not limited to this, and the measurement may be performed by combining a cooling device and a low-temperature container, an excitation light source, and a light receiving device.

・ Singlet energy S ₁
Examples of a method for measuring singlet energy S ₁ using a solution (sometimes referred to as a solution method) include the following methods.
A 10 μmol / L toluene solution of the compound to be measured is prepared and placed in a quartz cell, and the absorption spectrum (vertical axis: emission intensity, horizontal axis: wavelength) of this sample is measured at room temperature (300 K). A tangent line is drawn with respect to the fall of the absorption spectrum on the long wavelength side, and the singlet energy is calculated by substituting the wavelength value λedge [nm] at the intersection of the tangent line and the horizontal axis into the following conversion formula (F2). To do.
Conversion formula (F2): S ₁ [eV] = 1239.85 / λedge
Examples of the absorption spectrum measuring device include a spectrophotometer (device name: U3310) manufactured by Hitachi, but are not limited thereto.

The tangent to the falling edge on the long wavelength side of the absorption spectrum is drawn as follows. When moving on the spectrum curve in the long wavelength direction from the maximum value on the longest wavelength side among the maximum values of the absorption spectrum, the tangent at each point on the curve is considered. This tangent repeats as the curve falls (ie, as the value on the vertical axis decreases), the slope decreases and then increases. The tangent drawn at the point where the slope value takes the minimum value on the long wavelength side (except when the absorbance is 0.1 or less) is taken as the tangent to the fall on the long wavelength side of the absorption spectrum.
In addition, the maximum point whose absorbance value is 0.2 or less is not included in the maximum value on the longest wavelength side.

-Content rate of the compound in a light emitting layer It is preferable that the content rates of the 1st compound contained in the light emitting layer 5, and the 2nd compound are the following ranges, for example.
The content of the first compound is preferably 90% by mass or more and 99.9% by mass or less, more preferably 95% by mass or more and 99.9% by mass or less, and 99% by mass or more and 99.9% by mass. More preferably, it is% or less.

If the film thickness of the light emitting layer 5 is 5 nm or more, it is easy to form the light emitting layer 5 and adjust the chromaticity. Moreover, if the film thickness of the light emitting layer 5 is 50 nm or less, the raise of a drive voltage can be suppressed.

-TADF mechanism FIG. 4: is a figure which shows an example of the relationship of the energy level of the 1st compound in a light emitting layer, and a 2nd compound. In FIG. 4, S0 represents a ground state. S1 (M1) represents the lowest excited singlet state of the first compound. T1 (M1) represents the lowest excited triplet state of the first compound. S1 (M2) represents the lowest excited singlet state of the second compound. T1 (M2) represents the lowest excited triplet state of the second compound.
The dashed arrow from S1 (M1) to S1 (M2) in FIG. 4 represents the Forster energy transfer from the lowest excited singlet state of the first compound to the second compound.
As shown in FIG. 4, when a compound having a small ΔST (M1) is used as the first compound, the lowest excited triplet state T1 (M1) is reversed to the lowest excited singlet state S1 (M1) by thermal energy. Intersection is possible. Then, the Forster energy transfer from the lowest excited singlet state S1 (M1) of the first compound to the second compound occurs, and the lowest excited singlet state S1 (M2) is generated. As a result, fluorescence emission from the lowest excited singlet state S1 (M2) of the second compound can be observed. It is thought that the internal efficiency can theoretically be increased to 100% by utilizing delayed fluorescence due to this TADF mechanism.

-Content rate of the compound in a light emitting layer It is preferable that the content rates of the 1st compound, the 2nd compound, and the 3rd compound which are contained in the light emitting layer are the following ranges, for example.
The content of the first compound is preferably 10% by mass to 80% by mass, more preferably 10% by mass to 60% by mass, and further preferably 20% by mass to 60% by mass. preferable.
The content of the second compound is preferably 0.01% by mass to 10% by mass, more preferably 0.01% by mass to 5% by mass, and 0.01% by mass to 1% by mass. More preferably, it is% or less.
The content of the third compound is preferably 10% by mass or more and 80% by mass or less.
The upper limit of the total content of the first compound, the second compound, and the third compound in the light emitting layer is 100% by mass. In addition, this embodiment does not exclude that materials other than a 1st compound, a 2nd compound, and a 3rd compound are contained in a light emitting layer.

FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of the relationship between the energy levels of the first compound, the second compound, and the third compound in the light emitting layer. In FIG. 5, S0 represents a ground state. S1 (M1) represents the lowest excited singlet state of the first compound, and T1 (M1) represents the lowest excited triplet state of the first compound. S1 (M2) represents the lowest excited singlet state of the second compound, and T1 (M2) represents the lowest excited triplet state of the second compound. S1 (M3) represents the lowest excited singlet state of the third compound, and T1 (M3) represents the lowest excited triplet state of the third compound. The dashed arrow from S1 (M1) to S1 (M2) in FIG. 5 represents the Forster energy transfer from the lowest excited singlet state of the first compound to the lowest excited singlet state of the second compound. .
As shown in FIG. 5, when a compound having a small ΔST (M1) is used as the first compound, the lowest excited triplet state T1 (M1) is reversed to the lowest excited singlet state S1 (M1) by thermal energy. Intersection is possible. Then, the Forster energy transfer from the lowest excited singlet state S1 (M1) of the first compound to the second compound occurs, and the lowest excited singlet state S1 (M2) is generated. As a result, fluorescence emission from the lowest excited singlet state S1 (M2) of the second compound can be observed. It is thought that the internal efficiency can theoretically be increased to 100% by utilizing delayed fluorescence due to this TADF mechanism.

The organic EL device according to the second embodiment emits light with high efficiency.
Moreover, according to the organic EL element which concerns on 2nd embodiment, the luminous efficiency of an organic EL element can be improved especially in a blue wavelength range.

  The organic EL device of the second embodiment includes a first compound having delayed fluorescence, a second compound having fluorescence, and a third compound having a singlet energy larger than that of the first compound in the light emitting layer. And the luminous efficiency is improved. The reason why the luminous efficiency is improved is considered to be that the carrier balance of the light emitting layer is improved by including the third compound.

  The organic EL element which concerns on 2nd embodiment can be used for electronic devices, such as a display apparatus and a light-emitting device similarly to the organic EL element which concerns on 1st embodiment.

[Modification of Embodiment]
In addition, this invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, The change in the range which can achieve the objective of this invention, improvement, etc. are contained in this invention.

  For example, the first compound contained in the light emitting layer may be a compound that does not exhibit delayed fluorescence.

Further, for example, the light emitting layer is not limited to one layer, and a plurality of light emitting layers may be stacked. When the organic EL element has a plurality of light emitting layers, it is sufficient that at least one light emitting layer satisfies the conditions described in the above embodiment. For example, the other light-emitting layer may be a fluorescent light-emitting layer or a phosphorescent light-emitting layer that utilizes light emission by electron transition from a triplet excited state to a direct ground state.
In addition, when the organic EL element has a plurality of light emitting layers, these light emitting layers may be provided adjacent to each other, or a so-called tandem organic material in which a plurality of light emitting units are stacked via an intermediate layer. It may be an EL element.

Further, for example, a barrier layer may be provided adjacent to at least one of the anode side and the cathode side of the light emitting layer. The barrier layer is preferably disposed in contact with the light emitting layer and blocks at least one of holes, electrons, and excitons.
For example, when a barrier layer is disposed in contact with the cathode side of the light-emitting layer, the barrier layer transports electrons, and holes reach a layer on the cathode side of the barrier layer (for example, an electron transport layer). To stop doing. When an organic EL element contains an electron carrying layer, it is preferable to contain the said barrier layer between a light emitting layer and an electron carrying layer.
Further, when a barrier layer is disposed in contact with the anode side of the light emitting layer, the barrier layer transports holes, and the electrons are directed to a layer on the anode side of the barrier layer (for example, a hole transport layer). Stop reaching. When the organic EL element includes a hole transport layer, it is preferable to include the barrier layer between the light emitting layer and the hole transport layer.
Further, a barrier layer may be provided adjacent to the light emitting layer so that excitation energy does not leak from the light emitting layer to the peripheral layer. The excitons generated in the light emitting layer are prevented from moving to a layer (for example, an electron transport layer and a hole transport layer) closer to the electrode than the barrier layer.
The light emitting layer and the barrier layer are preferably joined.

  In addition, the specific structure, shape, and the like in the practice of the present invention may be other structures as long as the object of the present invention is achieved.

  Examples according to the present invention will be described below. The present invention is not limited by these examples.
