Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an organic electroluminescence device and, more particularly, to an organic electroluminescence device emitting light of a high luminance at a high efficiency and having a long life.
  • An organic electroluminescence device (hereinafter, referred to as an organic EL device) is a spontaneous light emitting device which utilizes the principle that a fluorescent substance emits light by recombination of holes injected from an anode and electrons injected from a cathode when an electric field is applied.
  • the efficiency of hole injection into the light emitting layer can be increased, that the efficiency of forming excited particles which are formed by blocking and recombining electrons injected from the cathode can be increased and that excited particles formed within the light emitting layer can be enclosed.
  • a two-layered structure having a hole transporting (injecting) layer and an electron transporting and light emitting layer and a three-layered structure having a hole transporting (injecting) layer, a light emitting layer and an electron transporting (injecting) layer are well known.
  • the structure of the device and the process for forming the device have been studied.
  • chelate complexes such as tris(8-quinolinolato)aluminum, coumarine derivatives, tetraphenylbutadiene derivatives, bisstyrylarylene derivatives and oxadiazole derivatives are known. It is reported that light in the visible region ranging from blue light to red light can be obtained by using these light emitting materials and development of a device exhibiting color images is expected (For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. Heisei 8(1996)-239655, Heisei 7(1995)-138561 and Heisei 3(1991)-200289).
  • a device using a phenylanthracene derivative as the light emitting material is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Heisei 8(1996)-12600.
  • the phenylanthracene derivative is used as the light emitting material emitting blue light.
  • this compound is used as the layer emitting blue light as a laminate in combination with a layer of tris(8-quinolinolato)aluminum (Alq).
  • Alq tris(8-quinolinolato)aluminum
  • the present invention has been made to overcome the above problems and has an object of providing an organic EL device emitting light of a higher luminance at a higher efficiency and having a longer life than those of conventional devices.
  • the present inventors used a layer of a metal complex having an energy gap of 2.8 eV or greater in place of the layer of Alq having an energy gap of 2.7 eV to overcome the above problems (1) and (2) and an organic EL device emitting light of a higher luminance at a higher efficiency and having a longer life than those of conventional devices has been completed.
  • the present invention provides an organic electroluminescence device comprising a cathode, an anode and a layer of an organic thin film comprising one or a plurality of layers and disposed between the cathode and the anode, wherein at least one of the layers in the layer of an organic thin film comprises a laminate of a layer comprising a metal complex having an energy gap of 2.8 eV or greater and a layer of a host material; and an organic electroluminescence device comprising a cathode, an anode and a layer of an organic thin film comprising one or a plurality of layers and disposed between the cathode and the anode, wherein at least one of the layers in the layer of an organic thin film comprises a mixture of a metal complex having an energy gap of 2.8 eV or greater and a host material.
  • the layer of the host material or the layer of the mixture comprises light emitting guest molecules which have an electron affinity smaller than the electron affinity of the host material and an ionization energy the same as or smaller than the ionization energy of the host material.
  • the amounts of electrons and holes are kept in good balance since the electron affinity and the ionization potential satisfy the above conditions and injection of holes into the electron injecting layer can be suppressed. Therefore, the device exhibiting a higher efficiency and having a longer life than those of conventional devices can be obtained.
  • the host material is a material constituting the layer of a host material.
  • the host material has an energy gap greater than that of the light emitting guest molecules.
  • One of the following cases (1) and (2) is more preferable.
  • the host material has an energy gap of 2.8 eV or greater. The reason is that, when the energy gap is great, the ionization energy of the host material is increased and the host material can work more effectively as the hole trap even when the same light emitting guest molecules are used. In particular, this case is preferable for obtaining emission of blue light.
  • the layer of the host material has the hole transporting property.
  • the hole transporting property is defined as the charge transporting property when the mobility of holes is greater than the mobility of electrons and can be measured in accordance with a conventional method such as the method of time of flight.
  • the host material is at least one compound selected from distyrylarylene derivatives, diarylanthracene derivatives and diarylbisanthracene derivatives.
