Description

Materials for organic electroluminescent devices

The present invention relates to compositions comprising compounds of formula (H1) and compounds of formula (H2). The invention also relates to compositions comprising compounds of formula (H1) and compounds of formula (H2) and formulations comprising solvents. Finally, the invention relates to electronic devices comprising such compositions.

Currently, the development of functional compounds for use in electronic devices is the subject of intensive research. The aim is the development of compounds with which improved properties of electronic devices can be achieved, inter alia, in one or more relevant respects, such as, for example, the power efficiency and lifetime of the device and the color coordinate of the emitted light.

According to the present invention, the term electronic devices includes in particular organic integrated circuits (OIC), organic field-effect transistors (OFET), organic thin-film transistors (OTFT), organic light-emitting transistors (OLET), organic solar cells (OSC), organic optical detectors, Organic photoreceptors, organic field-quenched devices (OFQDs), organic light-emitting electrochemical cells (OLECs), organic laser diodes (O-lasers) and organic electroluminescent devices (OLEDs).

It is of particular interest to provide compounds for use in the last mentioned electronic devices, referred to as OLEDs. The general structure and functional principles of OLEDs are known to those skilled in the art and are described for example in US 4539507.

In particular, further improvements in the performance data of OLEDs are still required in the context of broad commercial applications, for example in display devices or as light sources. In this regard, the achieved lifetime, efficiency and operating voltage and color values of the OLED are of particular importance. In particular, for blue-emitting OLEDs, there is potential for improvements regarding the efficiency, lifetime and operating voltage of the devices.

An important starting point for achieving the above improvements is the selection of emitter compound and host compound. In practice, emitter compounds are generally used in the emitter layer in combination with a second compound that acts as a matrix compound or host compound. Emitter compounds herein are taken to mean compounds that emit light during operation of an electronic device. Host compound in this case is taken to mean a compound that is present in the mixture in greater proportion than the emitter compound. The terms matrix compound and host compound may be used synonymously. The host compound preferably does not emit light. Even if a plurality of different host compounds are present in the mixture of emitting layers, their individual proportions are typically greater than the proportions of the emitter compounds, or, if multiple emitter compounds are present in the mixture of emitter layers, the proportions of the individual emitter compounds.

This embodiment is described for example in US 4769292 for fluorescent emitting layers.

When a mixture of multiple compounds is present in the emitting layer, the emitter compound is typically the component present in lower amounts, i.e., in a smaller proportion than the other compounds present in the mixture of the emitting layer. In this case, the emitter compound is also called a dopant.

Host materials for fluorescent emitters known from the prior art are a number of compounds. The emissive layer may include one or more host compounds. Host compounds comprising mixtures of deuterated and non-deuterated host compounds are known from the prior art (e.g. from WO 2020/080416).

However, there is still a need for additional host materials or additional combinations of host materials for the fluorescent emitter, which can be employed in OLEDs and can lead to OLEDs with very good properties in terms of lifetime, color emission and efficiency. More specifically, there is a need for a host material or combination of host materials for fluorescent emitters that combines very high efficiency, very good lifetime and very good thermal stability.

It is also known that OLEDs may comprise different layers, which may be applied by deposition in a vacuum chamber or by processing from solution. Although deposition-based processes lead to very good results, these processes can be complex and expensive. Accordingly, there is also a need for compositions comprising OLED materials that can be easily and reliably processed from solution. More specifically, what is needed is a composition comprising OLED materials that can be deposited as a homogeneous film during the manufacture of OLEDs when processed from a formulation, more particularly from a solution such as an ink. In this case, the material must have good solubility properties in the solution containing it and the deposited film containing the OLED material must be as smooth as possible after the drying step leading to solvent removal. It is important for the deposited layer to form a smooth and homogeneous film. If the layer thickness is non-uniform, it causes non-uniform luminance distribution where luminance increases in areas where the film is thin and decreases in areas where the film is thicker, leading to deterioration in OLED quality. Because it comes. At the same time, OLEDs comprising films processed from solution must exhibit excellent performance, for example in terms of lifetime, operating voltage and efficiency.

Additionally, a process is still needed to lead to stable OLED materials that are easy to purify and process. An economical and qualitatively interesting process is needed to provide OLED materials with acceptable purity and high yield.

The present invention is therefore based on the technical object of providing a composition comprising OLED materials suitable for use as a matrix component for electronic devices such as OLEDs, more particularly for fluorescent emitters. The invention is also based on the technical object of providing a composition comprising an OLED material that is particularly suitable for solution processing. The invention is also based on the technical object of providing methods.

In studies on novel compositions for use in electronic devices, it has now been found that compositions comprising compounds of formula (H1) and compounds of formula (H2) as defined below are eminently suitable for use in electronic devices. . In particular, they achieve one or more, preferably all, of the technical objectives described above.

Production of OLED

a) Manufacturing of films and devices

Glass substrates covered with pre-structured ITO (50 nm) and bank material are cleaned using sonication in deionized water. In the following, the substrate is dried using an air gun and subsequently annealed on a hot plate at 230° C. for 2 hours.

All subsequent process steps are carried out in yellow light.

The next layer sequence is shown in Figures 4A and 4B.

A hole injection layer (HIL) is inkjet printed to a thickness of 20 nm on the substrate and dried in vacuum. For this purpose, the solids concentration of HIL ink is 6 g/l. Next, the HIL is annealed at 220° C. for 30 minutes. HIL's inkjet printing and annealing are performed in air. As HIL material, hole transporting, crosslinkable polymer and p-doping salt are dissolved in 3-phenoxy toluene. The materials are described i.e. in WO2016/107668, WO2013/081052 and EP2325190.

On top of the HIL, a hole transport layer is inkjet printed under ambient conditions, dried in vacuum and annealed at 225° C. for 30 minutes in an argon atmosphere. The hole transport layer is either a polymer of the structure shown in Table 1 (HTM1) synthesized according to WO2013156130 or a polymer HTM2 (Table 1) synthesized according to WO2018/114882.

If, as here, the 20 nm layer thickness typical for the device is to be achieved by inkjet printing, the solution typically dissolves the polymer in 3-phenoxy toluene such that the solids content is approximately 5 g/l.

The emitting layer includes a matrix material (one host compound or two host compounds) and a dopant as described in Table 2 below. The mixture for the release layer is dissolved in 3-phenoxy toluene. The solids content of such solutions is about 10 mg/ml, if, as here, a layer thickness of 30 nm, typical for devices, is to be achieved by inkjet printing. The blue emitting layer (B-EML) is also inkjet printed, then vacuum dried and annealed at 150° C. for 10 minutes. Inkjet printing is performed in an ambient atmosphere, while annealing is performed in an argon atmosphere.

A device fabricated according to Figure 4a is used to evaluate EML film homogeneity.

For the fabrication of the device according to Figure 4b used for electro-optic characterization, the sample is then transferred to a vacuum deposition chamber where the two electron transport layers (ETL1, ETL2), the electron injection layer (EIL) and the cathode (Al) are deposited. This is done using thermal evaporation. Thus, ETL1 consists of ETM1 (10 nm film thickness), while ETL2 consists of a 1:1 volume % mixture of ETM1 and ETM2 (35 nm film thickness). The electron injection layer is made of ETM2 (1nm), and the cathode is aluminum (100nm). The structures are shown in Table 1.

After evaporation, the device is encapsulated in a glovebox with an argon atmosphere.

b) Evaluation of release film homogeneity

For display production, it is very important to obtain very good pixel homogeneity while simultaneously having good device performance. Layer thickness non-uniformity causes an uneven brightness distribution where areas of thinner film thickness show increased brightness and thicker areas show reduced brightness. These non-uniformities vary from pixel to pixel, preventing a reproducible appearance from pixel to pixel. Combined, this will lead to negative perceptions about the quality of such displays. Accordingly, the present invention addresses the subject of EML film homogeneity and device performance. Accordingly, the first step for evaluation is inspection of film homogeneity. For this purpose, the stack shown in Figure 4a is used. Processing is stopped after EML deposition The films are prepared as described in part a). The composition of EML is shown in Tables 2a and 2b.

To assess the homogeneity of the printed film, its topography was characterized along a 10 μm profile with a profilometer. Calculate the peak-to-valley value and the root mean square deviation of the roughness. The film profile is measured using a profile-meter Alpha-Step D120 from KLA-Tencor Corporation with a 2 μm stylus. The value corresponds to the height difference between the measured maximum and minimum peaks within the measured profile. For ease of visibility, the baseline of the film profile is subtracted so that the minimum peak corresponds to a height of 0 nm and the axis scales are the same for all diagrams.

The following two equations are used to determine film homogeneity: Peak-to-Valley Differences , represents the maximum height difference within a layer (Equation 1) and the root mean square roughness RMS, where is the location Corresponds to the profile height in corresponds to the average profile height (equation 2).

Equation 1

Equation 2

Example PE1 comprising the host mixture according to the invention significantly reduced the and values, corresponding to much smoother films (Figures 1 and 3).

Moreover, Example PE1 is similar to Reference Example PR2 and However, it leads to significantly better OLED performance (DE1 vs. DR1) as shown in Table 5a.

In summary, only mixed host systems enable smooth films with both good homogeneity and good device performance (EQE and LT).

The additional film homogeneity of the additional release layer (EML) is shown in Table 2b.

For all emission layer profiles based on mixed host systems, and The values are significantly lower for each single host EML based on host component 1 (PE2 vs. PR4, PE3 vs. PR6, PE4 and PE5 vs. PR8, PE6 vs. PR10, PE7 vs. PR12). Compared to each EML based on a single host component 2, the EML (mixed host system) according to the invention and The values are in a similar range. In these cases, the benefit of the present invention is better device performance (EQE or LT) as illustrated in the Device Results section below (see Tables 5a-e).

c) Device results

A device, as shown in Figure 4b, is manufactured according to section a). Host materials are shown in Table 3 and emitters are shown in Table 4. Blue EML ink is mixed according to Tables 5a-e and Tables 6a-c.

To confirm the device performance of the fabricated OLEDs, they are characterized using standard methods. For this purpose, the electroluminescence spectrum, the current/voltage/luminous concentration characteristic curve (IUL characteristic curve) (assuming Lambert emission characteristics) and the (operating) lifetime are recorded. The IUL characteristic curve is used to determine characteristic figures of merit, such as external quantum efficiency (in %) at a particular luminance. The device is driven with a constant voltage at each step of the applied voltage ramp. Device lifetime is measured under a given current corresponding to the initial brightness. Next, the luminance is measured by a time-corrected photodiode.

In Tables 5a-e, the relative external quantum efficiency (rel. EQE at 1000 cd/m ² ) and relative device lifetime (LT90 at 1000 cd/m ² ) are summarized for the EMLs whose profiles were investigated in Tables 2a and 2b. It is done.

All shown embodiments of the mixed host system exhibit improved device performance compared to the respective single host EML based on host component 2. Compared to a single host EML based on host component 1, device performance in mixed host systems is similar. However, in these cases improved film homogeneity is achieved as shown in Tables 2a and 2b.

In summary, the present invention (i.e., mixed host EML) enables smooth films with both excellent homogeneity and excellent device performance (EQE and LT).

Additional mixed host EML examples with excellent film homogeneity and excellent device performance are summarized in Tables 6a-c.
