Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a light emitting material for an organic electroluminescence (EL) device used for a flat light source or display and a light emitting device having a high luminance.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An EL device using an organic substance is expected to be used as an inexpensive, large-area, full-color display device of a solid light emitting type, and many developments have been made. Generally EL
Is composed of a light-emitting layer and a pair of opposed electrodes sandwiching the layer. In light emission, when an electric field is applied between both electrodes, electrons are injected from the cathode side and holes are injected from the anode side. Further, the electrons are recombined with holes in the light emitting layer, and energy is emitted as light when the energy level returns from the conduction band to the valence band.

[0003] Conventional organic EL devices have a higher driving voltage and lower luminous brightness and luminous efficiency than inorganic EL devices.
In addition, the characteristic deterioration was remarkable, and it had not been put to practical use.
2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, an organic EL in which a thin film containing an organic compound having high fluorescence quantum efficiency that emits light at a low voltage of 10 V or less is laminated.
Devices have been reported and are of interest (see Applied Physics Letters, vol. 51, p. 913, 1987). This method uses a metal chelate complex for a light emitting layer and an amine compound for a hole injection layer to obtain high-intensity green light emission.
d / m ² and maximum luminous efficiency of 1.5 lm / W,
Has performance close to the practical range.

[0004] However, organic EL devices up to now have improved luminous intensity due to the improved structure, but do not yet have sufficient luminous brightness. In addition, there is a major problem that the stability upon repeated use is poor. This is because, for example, a metal chelate complex such as a tris (8-hydroxyquinolinato) aluminum complex is chemically unstable during electroluminescence, has poor adhesion to a cathode, and is greatly deteriorated by short-time light emission. I was For the above reasons, in order to develop an organic EL device having high luminous luminance and luminous efficiency and excellent stability in repeated use, development of a durable luminescent material having excellent luminous ability has been required. Is desired.

[0005]

It has been found that the stability at the time is excellent, and the present invention has been achieved.

The compounds represented by the general formulas [1] to [5] of the present invention have strong fluorescence in a solid state and have excellent electroluminescence. In addition, since it has both excellent hole injecting property and hole transporting property from the metal electrode, and excellent electron injecting property and electron transporting property from the metal electrode, it can be effectively used as a light emitting material, Further, other hole transporting materials, electron transporting materials or doping materials may be used.

The organic EL device is a device in which one or more organic thin films are formed between an anode and a cathode. In the case of a single layer type, a light emitting layer is provided between an anode and a cathode.

The multilayer type includes (anode / hole injection layer / electron injection layer / cathode), (anode / hole injection layer / electron injection layer / cathode), and (anode / hole injection layer / light emission layer / electron injection layer / cathode) multilayer. There is an organic EL element stacked in a configuration. General formula [1]-
The compound of [5] has high light emitting properties, a hole injecting property,

It is also possible to improve light emission luminance and light emission efficiency and obtain red and blue light emission. Further, each of the hole injection layer, the light emitting layer, and the electron injection layer may be formed in a layer structure of two or more layers.

Call.

Therefore, it is possible to efficiently emit light by mixing it at a low concentration in the fluorescent material serving as a host, and increase the luminous efficiency. In some cases, the emission color can be changed from the fluorescent color of the host material to the fluorescent color of the doping material due to energy transfer from the host material.
