Abstract
Description
본 발명은 디스플레이 소자에 관한 것으로, 특히 유기 EL 소자에 관한 것이다.TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to display elements, and more particularly to organic EL elements.
최근에는 유기 발광 다이오드(Light Emitting Diode: LED)라고도 불리는 유기 EL 소자의 기술이 빠른 속도로 발전하고 있으며, 이미 시제품이 발표되었다.In recent years, the technology of organic EL elements, also called organic light emitting diodes (LEDs), is rapidly developing, and prototypes have already been announced.
유기 EL 소자는 매우 얇고, 매트릭스 형태로 어드레스 할 수 있으며, 15V 이하의 낮은 전압으로도 구동이 가능한 장점이 있다.The organic EL device is very thin, can be addressed in a matrix form, and can be driven at a low voltage of 15V or less.
또한, 유기 EL 소자는 넓은 시야각과 플라스틱과 같이 휠 수 있는(flexible) 투명기판 위에도 형성할 수 있어 차세대 평판 디스플레이(Flat Panel Display: FPD)에 적합한 소자이며, 잘 알려진 LCD (Liquid Crystal Display)에 비해 백라이트(backlight)가 필요치 않으므로 전력 소모가 적은 장점도 있다.In addition, organic EL devices can be formed on flexible transparent substrates such as wide viewing angles and plastics, making them suitable for next-generation flat panel displays (FPDs), and compared to well-known liquid crystal displays (LCDs). There is no need for backlight, which also has the advantage of low power consumption.
이와 같은 장점을 갖는 유기 EL 소자는 일반적으로 무기 EL 소자와는 동작 원리 면에서 큰 차이가 있다.The organic EL device having such an advantage generally has a large difference in operation principle from that of the inorganic EL device.
무기 EL 소자는 높은 전계에 의해 가속된 전자가 발광체(luminescent impurity)에 충돌, 여기 시키고 여기된 발광체가 기저 상태로 떨어지면서 발광하는데 반해, 유기 EL 소자는 음극과 양극으로부터 각각 주입된 전자와 정공이 결합하여 생성된 엑시톤(exciton)이 여기상태로부터 기저상태로 떨어지면서 발광한다.Inorganic EL devices emit electrons that are accelerated by high electric fields and collide with the luminescent impurity, and the excited light emitters fall to the ground state, whereas organic EL devices emit electrons and holes respectively injected from the cathode and anode. The excitons generated by the coupling emit light while falling from the excited state to the ground state.
일반적으로 유기 EL로 풀-컬러(full-color)를 구현하기 위해서는 그린(green), 레드(red), 블루(blue)의 3가지 빛을 내는 발광 소자를 필요로 한다.In general, in order to implement full-color with an organic EL, a light emitting device emitting three types of light of green, red, and blue is required.
여기서, 그린, 레드는 Alq3에 여러 가지 염료(dye)를 도핑함으로써 실현할 수가 있으나 블루의 경우는 밴드 갭(band gap)에너지가 크기 때문에 근본적으로 새로운 발광층을 필요로 한다.Here, green and red can be realized by doping various dyes to Alq 3 , but in the case of blue, the band gap energy is large, and thus a new light emitting layer is required.
따라서, 많은 연구소나 업체에서 청색 발광체를 개발하기 위한 연구가 진행되어 왔으며 미국 특허 5516577에는 다양한 청색 물질을 개발하여 청색 염료를 도핑함으로써 높은 휘도를 얻었다.Therefore, many research institutes and companies have been researched to develop a blue light emitter, US patent 5516577 has developed a variety of blue materials to obtain a high luminance by doping the blue dye.
그러나, 수명에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 유리전이온도에 있어 불리한 단점이 있다.However, there are disadvantages in the glass transition temperature which has the greatest influence on the lifetime.
따라서, 높은 열안정성을 지닌 청색 발광 물질의 개발이 필요하다.Therefore, there is a need for the development of a blue light emitting material having high thermal stability.
본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제들을 해결하기 위한 것으로 우수한 청색 물질을 소자에 도입하여 열안정성을 높이고 수명을 향상시킬 수 있는 유기 EL 소자를 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide an organic EL device capable of improving thermal stability and lifespan by introducing an excellent blue material into the device.

여기서, n은 2, 3, 4이다.Where n is 2, 3, 4.
이와 같이 유기발광층(24)으로 상기와 같은 물질들을 선택한 이유는 다음과 같다.The reason why the above materials are selected as the organic light emitting layer 24 is as follows.
일반적으로 유리 전이 온도를 결정하는 것은 유기 EL 소자에 있어서는 분자량이다.Generally, it is molecular weight in organic electroluminescent element to determine glass transition temperature.
물론 수소 결합 등을 통하여 높은 유리 전이 온도를 가질 수 있으나 이럴 경우 하이드록실기를 통한 분자간 상호 작용에 의하여 비발광 전이로의 천이로 효율이 크게 감소한다.Of course, it may have a high glass transition temperature through hydrogen bonding, but in this case the efficiency is greatly reduced by the transition to the non-luminescent transition by the intermolecular interaction through the hydroxyl group.
따라서, 성능을 유지시키면서 유리 전이 온도를 높이는 방법은 분자간의 상호 작용을 크게 줄이면서 분자량을 높이는 방법이다.Therefore, the method of increasing the glass transition temperature while maintaining the performance is a method of increasing the molecular weight while greatly reducing the interaction between molecules.
즉, 상기 화학식 1과 같이 청색 발광 유닛(unit) 두 개를 알킬기 또는 페닐기를 이용하여 다리 결합시킴으로써 유리 전이 온도를 높였다.That is, as shown in Formula 1, two blue light emitting units were bridged using an alkyl group or a phenyl group to increase the glass transition temperature.
(5)그리고, 유기발광층(25) 위에 약 100nm ∼ 200nm 두께의 제 2 전극(26)을 입힌다.(5) Then, the second electrode 26 having a thickness of about 100 nm to 200 nm is coated on the organic light emitting layer 25.
경우에 따라 제 2 전극(26)과 유기발광층(25) 사이에 CuPc와 같은 접착층이 형성할 수도 있다.In some cases, an adhesive layer such as CuPc may be formed between the second electrode 26 and the organic light emitting layer 25.
본 발명에 따른 유기 EL 소자에 있어서는 다음과 같은 효과가 있다.The organic EL device according to the present invention has the following effects.
청색 발광 유닛 두 개를 알킬기 또는 페닐기를 이용하여 다리 결합시킴으로써 유리 전이 온도를 높여 소자의 수명을 크게 증가시킨다.The two blue light emitting units are bridged using an alkyl group or a phenyl group to increase the glass transition temperature, thereby greatly increasing the life of the device.
