Description

Organic compound and light emitting diode and organic light emitting diode display device using the same

The present invention relates to an organic compound used in an organic light emitting diode, and more particularly, to an organic compound capable of lowering a driving voltage of a light emitting diode due to excellent charge transfer characteristics and hole injection characteristics, and a light emitting diode and organic light emitting diode using the same It's about the display.

Recently, demand for a flat display device that occupies less space is increasing according to the large size of the display device. One of these flat display devices includes a light emitting diode and is also called an organic electroluminescent device (OELD). The technology of an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display device is developing rapidly.

A light emitting diode is a device that emits light while electrons and holes form pairs when charge is injected into an organic light emitting layer formed between an electron injection electrode (cathode) and a hole injection electrode (anode) and then disappears. The device can be formed on a flexible transparent substrate such as plastic, can be driven at a low voltage (less than 10V), consumes relatively little power, and has excellent color purity.

The organic light emitting layer may have a single layer structure of light emitting material layers or may have a multilayer structure to improve light emitting efficiency. For example, the organic light emitting layer includes a hole injection layer (HIL), a hole transporting layer (HTL), an emitting material layer (EML), an electron transporting layer (ETL), and It may have a multilayer structure composed of an electron injection layer (EIL).

A brief look at the manufacturing process of organic light-emitting diodes,

(1) First, an anode is formed by depositing a material such as indium tin oxide (ITO) on a transparent substrate.

(2) A hole injection layer (HIL) is formed on the anode to a thickness of 5 nm to 30 nm.

(3) Next, a hole transport layer is formed on the hole injection layer. The hole transport layer is formed by depositing an organic material such as 4,4'-bis[N-(1-naphthyl)-N-phenylamino]-biphenyl (NPB) to a thickness of about 30 nm to 70 nm. In the case of a phosphorescent device, in order to effectively confine triplet excitons in the light emitting material layer, an exciton blocking layer such as an electron blocking layer (EBL) may be formed between the hole transport layer and the light emitting material layer.

(4) Next, an emitting material layer (EML) is formed on the hole transport layer. The light emitting material layer may include an appropriate host and dopant.

(5) Next, an electron transport layer (ETL) and an electron injection layer (EIL) are formed on the light emitting material layer. For example, tris(8-hydroxy-quinolate)aluminum (Alq ₃ ) is used as an electron transport layer and LiF is used as an electron injection layer. In the case of a phosphorescent device, in order to effectively confine triplet excitons in the light emitting material layer, a hole blocking layer (HBL) may be formed before forming the electron transport layer.

(6) Next, a cathode is formed on the electron injection layer.

In general, a material used for the hole injection layer or the hole transport layer is DNTPD (N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis-[4-(phenyl-m-tolyl-amino)-phenyl]-biphenyl-4 Aromatic amine derivatives such as ,4'-diamine), HAT-CN (1,4,5,8,9,11-hexaazatriphenylenehexacarbonitrile), and CuPc (Copper Phthalocyanine) are well known. However, when the hole injection layer is formed using DNTPD, HAT-CN, or CuPc, hole injection becomes difficult due to the difference in HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital) energy level between the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer. There is a problem with the voltage rising. Since a high applied voltage is required to obtain sufficient light emission luminance, there are problems in that device life is reduced and power consumption is increased.

To solve this problem, a method of doping the hole transport layer with an electron acceptor compound or forming a separate layer has been proposed. However, the electron-accepting compound has a problem in that it is unstable in handling in the manufacturing process of the light emitting diode device or lacks stability such as heat resistance during driving, resulting in a decrease in lifespan.

For example, F4-TCNQ (tetrafluorodicyanoquinodimethane), a representative electron-accepting compound used in light emitting diode devices, has a small molecular weight and is substituted with fluorine, so it sublimes easily and diffuses in the device during vacuum deposition. There is a risk of contaminating the device. In addition, HAT-CN has limitations in the deposition thickness due to crystallization and current leakage.

Meanwhile, a tandem type light emitting diode manufactured by stacking a plurality of unit devices has been proposed to further improve the performance of the light emitting diode and realize a white light emitting diode. Such a stacked light emitting diode includes a charge generation layer (CGL) disposed between unit elements to supply positive and negative charges to each unit element, respectively.

Conventionally, it has been proposed to use an indium-zinc-oxide (IZO) film or an indium-tin-oxide (ITO) film as a charge generation layer. However, when an IZO film or an ITO film is used as a charge generation layer, a pixel crosstalk problem occurs due to high lateral conductivity. In addition, the IZO film and the ITO film are formed by a sputtering process, and the organic material layer is damaged by the sputtering process.

In particular, the electrode of the light emitting diode device is composed of metal or metal oxide. Therefore, when the interface between the inorganic material and the material used as the charge injection material is not stable, the performance of the device may be significantly degraded by heat applied from the outside, heat generated from the inside, or an electric field applied to the device. Therefore, it is required to develop a material having a high charge transport ability while forming a stable interface with the electrode.

An object of the present invention is to provide an organic compound having excellent charge transport capability and not damaging an organic layer, and a light emitting diode and a display device containing the organic compound in an organic layer requiring charge transport characteristics.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an organic compound capable of improving charge transport capability without increasing the driving voltage of the light emitting diode device, and a light emitting diode and a display device including the organic compound in an organic material layer.

The organic compound has excellent hole injection characteristics and charge generation characteristics.

Accordingly, according to another aspect of the present invention, the present invention relates to a light emitting diode in which the organic compound is included in an organic material layer requiring hole injection and/or charge generation.

That is, in the present invention, an organic compound in which an electron withdrawing group is substituted in a heteroaromatic derivative core such as the conjugated pyridazine is used alone or in a hole layer such as a hole injection layer or a charge generation layer or in these organic layers. A light emitting diode doped with a host material as a dopant is provided.

In addition, according to another aspect of the present invention, an organic compound in which an electron withdrawing group is substituted in a core of a heteroaromatic derivative such as conjugated pyridazine is contained in an organic material layer requiring hole injection characteristics and/or charge generation characteristics. A display device including a light emitting diode is provided.

That is, a strong electron withdrawing group is substituted in the core of a heteroaromatic derivative such as conjugated pyridazine to have a Deep Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital (deep LUMO), thereby improving hole transfer characteristics and charge generation characteristics. .

Since the light emitting diode and the organic light emitting diode display device including the electron injection layer made of the organic compound of the present invention can be driven by a low voltage, power consumption is reduced.

In addition, the light emitting diode and the organic light emitting diode display device having a multilayer structure including a charge generation layer made of an organic compound according to the present invention have advantages in that power consumption is reduced by driving at a low voltage and high purity white color can be implemented.

The light emitting material layer 132 may be formed by doping a host material with a dopant. For example, when the light emitting material layer 132 emits blue (B) light, the light emitting material layer 132 is composed of an anthracene derivative, a pyrene derivative, and a perylene derivative. At least one fluorescent host material selected from the group (eg, DPVBi (4,4'-bis (2,2'-diphenylyinyl) -1,1'-biphenyl, AND (9,10-di- (2-naphtyl) )anthracene), TBADN(2,5,8,11-tetra-t-butylperylene, 2-tert-butyl-9,10-di(2-naphthyl)anthracene), MADN(2-methyl-9,10-di (2-naphtyl)anthracene), TBPi (2,2',2"-(1,3,5-benzinetriyl)-tris(1-phenyl-1-H-benzimidazole), etc.) BCzVBi(4,4'-bis(9-ethyl-3-carbazovinylene)- 1,1'-biphenyl), BD-1(diphenyl-[4-(2-[1,1;4,1]terphenyl-4 -yl-vinyl)-phenyl]-amine) may be doped.
