Definitions

  • the invention relates to a luminescent device using an organic luminescent element having an anode, a cathode, and a film (referred below to as “organic compound layer”), which includes an organic compound adapted to effect luminescence upon application of an electric field. More particularly, the invention relates to a luminescent device using an organic luminescent device whose organic compound film contains a high-molecular compound and which requires a lower drive voltage and has a longer life than luminescent devices of the related art, and a method of manufacturing this luminescent devices. Note that the luminescent device described in the specification of the present application indicates an image display device or a luminescent device, which use an organic luminescent element as luminescent element.
  • the luminescent device includes all of modules, in which a connector, for example, an anisotropic electroconductive film (FPC:Flexible printed circuit) or a TAB (Tape Automated Bonding) tape or a TCP (Tape Carrier Package) is mounted to an organic luminescent element, modules, in which a printed-circuit board is provided on a TAB tape or a tip end of a TCP, or modules, in which an IC (integrated circuit) is directly mounted on an organic luminescent element in the COG (Chip On Glass) system.

  • modules in which a printed-circuit board is provided on a TAB tape or a tip end of a TCP
  • modules in which an IC (integrated circuit) is directly mounted on
  • An organic luminescent element is one adapted to effect luminescence upon application of an electric field.
  • a mechanism for luminescence has been said to reside in that an organic compound layer is interposed between electrodes, upon application of voltage thereto electrons filled from a cathode and holes filled from an anode recombine together at a center of luminescence in the organic compound layer to form excited molecules (referred below to as “molecule exciton”), and the molecule excitons discharge energy to produce luminescence when returned to the base state.
  • kinds of molecule excitons formed by the organic compound can include a singlet excited state and a triplet excited state, while the specification of the present invention contains the case where either of the excited states contributes to luminescence.
  • an organic compound layer is normally formed in a thin film below 1 ⁇ m. Also, since the organic luminescent element is a self-luminescent type one, in which the organic compound layer itself emits light, a backlight used in a conventional liquid crystal display is not necessary. Accordingly, the organic luminescent element can be very advantageously formed to be thin and lightweight.
  • a time period having elapsed from filling of a carrier to recombination thereof is in the order of several tens of nanosecond taking account of the extent of movement of the carrier in the organic compound layer, and luminescence is achieved in the order of less than one micro second even when the procedure from the recombination of the carrier to luminescence is included. Accordingly, one of the features is that the speed of response is very large.
  • the organic luminescent element is a carrier-filling type luminescent element, it can be driven by DC voltage, and is hard to generate noise. With respect to drive voltage, an adequate luminance of 100 cd/m 2 is achieved at 5.5 V by first making the thickness of an organic compound layer a uniform, super-thin film of around 100 nm, selecting an electrode material, which reduces a carrier filling barrier relative to the organic compound layer, and further introducing a single hetero structure (double structure) (Literature 1: C. W. Tang and S. A. VanSlyke, “Organic electroluminescent diodes”, Applied Physics Letters, vol. 51, No. 12, 913-915 (1987)).
  • organic luminescent elements Owing to such performances as thin and lightweight, high-speed responsibility, DC low voltage drive, and the like, organic luminescent elements have been given attention as next-generation flat panel display elements. Also, since organic luminescent elements are of self-luminescent type and large in angle of visibility, they are comparatively favorable in visibility and believed to be effective as elements used for displays in portable equipments.
  • a carrier filling barrier is made small by using as a cathode a relatively stable Mg:Ag alloy of low work function to enhance an electron injecting quality. This makes it possible to fill a large amount of carrier into the organic compound layer.
  • the recombination efficiency of the carrier is improved by leaps and bounds by application of a single hetero structure, in which a hole transporting layer composed of a diamine compound and an electron transporting luminescent layer composed of tris (8-quinolinolato) aluminium (hereinafter written as “Alq 3 ”) are laminated as an organic compound layer, which is explained below.
  • the organic luminescent element described in Literature 1 is based on, so to speak, that thought of functional separation, according to which carrying of holes is performed by the hole transporting layer and carrying and luminescence of electrons are performed by the electron transporting luminescent layer.
  • Such concept of functional separation has further grown to a concept of double heterostructure (three-layered structure), according to which a luminescent layer is inserted between the hole transporting layer and the electron transporting layer (Literature 3: Chihaya ADACHI, Shizuo TOKITO, Tetsuo TSUTSUI and Shogo SAITO, “Electroluminescence in Organic Films with Three-Layered Structure”, Japanese Journal of Applied Physics, Vol. 27, No. 2, L269-L271 (1988)).
  • Such functional separation has an advantage in that the functional separation makes it unnecessary for a kind of organic material to have a variety of functions (luminescence, carrier carrying quality, filling quality of carrier from electrode, and so on) at a time, which provides a wide freedom in molecular design or the like (for example, it is unnecessary to unreasonably search for bipolar materials). That is, a high luminous efficiency can be easily attained by combining materials having a good luminous quality and a carrier carrying quality, respectively.
  • the laminated structure described above will necessarily produce an energy barrier at an interface the substances. Since the presence of an energy barrier inhibits movements of a carrier at the interface, the two following problems are caused.
  • the conjugate polymer described in Literature 4 is a bipolar material, and can attain a level equivalent to that of the laminated structure with respect to the recombination efficiency of a carrier. Accordingly, it demonstrates that a single layer structure having less interfaces is actually low in drive voltage provided that a method making use of a bipolar material can make an equivalent recombination efficiency of a carrier without the use of any laminated structure.
  • organic interface the carrier transfer between organic materials (e.g., between the hole transport layer and luminescent layer; the interface will hereinafter be called “organic interface”) remains as an unsettled issue and is considered to be an important point in catching up with the low drive voltage provided by the single-layered structure.
  • the laminated structure has an advantage in enabling easily enhancing the recombination efficiency of a carrier and enlarging a range of material selection in terms of functional separation and on the other and formation of many organic interfaces impedes movements of a carrier and has an influence on lowering of drive voltage and brilliance.
  • the invention has its object to relax an energy barrier present in an organic compound layer and enhance mobility of carriers by manufacturing an element of different concept from that of the conventionally used laminated structure, and at the same time to express functions (referred below to as “functional expression”) of a plurality of various materials in the same manner as in functional separation involved in the laminated structure.
  • functional expression functions of a plurality of various materials in the same manner as in functional separation involved in the laminated structure.
  • the invention has its object to provide an organic luminescent element, which is lower in drive voltage and longer in service life than those in the related art.
  • the invention has its object to remove organic interfaces present in an organic compound layer and enhance mobility of carriers by manufacturing an element of different concept from that of the conventionally used laminated structure, in which carriers in a luminescent layer are blocked for recombination, and at the same time to express functions (referred below to as “function expression”) of a plurality of various materials in the same manner as in functional separation involved in the laminated structure.
  • function expression functions of a plurality of various materials in the same manner as in functional separation involved in the laminated structure.
  • Mitigation of an energy barrier in a laminated structure is noticeably found in the technique of insertion of a carrier filling layer as described in Literature 5.
  • a hole injecting layer is exemplarily illustrated with the use of an energy band diagram in FIG. 1B.
  • an anode 101 and a hole injecting layer 102 are joined directly to each other, in which case an energy barrier 104 associated with the anode 101 and the hole injecting layer 102 is large.
  • the energy barrier can be designed in a stepwise manner (FIG. 1B) by inserting as a hole injecting layer 103 a material having a level of highest occupied molecular orbit (referred below to as “HOMO”) positioned intermediate between ionization potential of the anode and a HOMO level of the hole transporting layer.
  • HOMO level of highest occupied molecular orbit
  • the present inventor came up a method of substantially eliminating an interface in an organic compound layer containing two or more kinds of organic compounds (at least one of which is a high-molecular compound), thereby relaxing an energy barrier in the organic compound layer.
  • the organic compound layer contains at least two compounds selected from a group of a hole injection compound which receives holes from the anode, an electron injection compound which receives electrons from the cathode, a hole transport compound, an electron transport compound, a blocking compound capable of inhibiting transfer of electron or hole, and a luminescent compound which demonstrates light emission
  • the scheme substantially eliminates an interface in the organic compound layer by providing an area (hereinafter called “mixed region”) where the at least two compounds are mixed at a position located apart from the electrodes. This scheme will hereinafter be called “mixed junction”.
  • the reason for the use of a high-molecular compound in the present invention is that a high-molecular compound generally has a large carrier mobility and can be driven with a low voltage. That is, the feature of the present invention lies in that mixed junction is carried out in a system which uses a high-molecular compound.
  • the mixed region may be doped with a guest. Since carrier is considered to transfer smoothly in the mixed region, it is preferable to use a luminescent compound which demonstrates light emission as a guest.

  • the structure is considered that one of the high-molecular compounds expresses light emission and the other expresses a carrier transport function.
  • the second organic compound is a low-molecular compound

This is because the carrier recombination efficiency can be enhanced to improve the luminescent efficiency by providing the first organic compound and second organic compound which compose the mixed region with a carrier transport function or a blocking function and adding a luminescent compound into the mixed region.

  • organic luminescent elements capable of converting energy (referred below to as “triplet excited energy”), which is discharged when returned to a base state from a triplet excited state, into luminance, have been successively presented, and notice has been taken of their luminous efficiency (Literature 7: D. F. O'Brien, M. A. Baldo, M. E. Thompson and S. R. Forrest, “Improved energy transfer in electrophosphorescent devices”, Applied Physics Letters, Vol. 74, No.
  • These organic luminescent elements capable of converting triplet excited energy into luminance referred below to as “triplet luminescent diode”) can attain higher intensity luminance and higher luminous efficiency than in the related art.
  • Literature 8 has presented an example, in which half-life of luminance is about 170 hours in the case where the initial luminance is set to 500 cd/m 2 , thus causing a problem in service life of an element.
  • application of the invention to triplet light emitting diodes can provide a highly functional luminescent element, which is long in service life in addition to high intensity luminance and high luminous efficiency based on luminance from a triplet excited state.
  • the invention covers a case where a material which can convert the triplet excited energy into luminescence is selected as the third organic compound or a guest and is added into the mixed region.
  • the third organic compound need not be limited to a luminescent compound which demonstrates light emission.
  • the first organic compound or the second organic compound emits light
  • it is preferable to use, as the third organic compound, a compound which has a larger energy difference between the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) i.e., a compound capable of blocking carriers and molecular excitons
  • This scheme can enhance the carrier recombination efficiency in the mixed region where the first organic compound and the second organic compound are mixed and improve the luminescent efficiency.
  • FIG. 3B shows a conceptual diagram for this case.

That is, FIG. 3B shows the structure that combined the scheme of using a luminescent compound which emits light as the third organic compound (FIG. 3A) with adding of the blocking compound. Because the compound 307 that can block carriers and molecular excitons is located closer to the cathode side than the luminescent compound 306 that emits light, a hole blocking compound is preferably used as the compound 307 that can block carriers and molecular excitons.
