Abstract

The new organic electroluminescent display device has a carrier-transporting layer and/or an organic luminous layer composed of a nematic liquid crystal or a liquid crystal dispersing a carrier-transporting low-molecule therein. When the organic luminous layer is to be bestowed with faculty as a liquid crystal, it is made of a nematic liquid crystal. Both the carrier-transporting layer and the organic luminous layer may be bestowed with faculty as a liquid crystal. Since the liquid crystal is incorporated in the carrier-transporting layer and/or the organic luminous layer, the display device can be driven as a liquid crystal display device in a dark place by charging with a voltage lower than a light emission initiating potential. Of course, it is driven as an electroluminescent display device when it is charged with a voltage higher than the light emission initiating potential. Use of an electroluminescent liquid crystal as a organic luminous layer enables omission of a carrier-transporting layer.

Description

    CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
  • This application is a divisional of U.S. application Ser. No. 10/650,361 filed Aug. 28, 2003, which is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 09/844,151 filed Apr. 27, 2001, now abandoned, which claimed the benefit of Japanese Patent Application No. 2000-128766 filed Apr. 28, 2000, all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
    • BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • 1. Field of the Invention
  • The present invention relates to an organic electroluminescent display device which is also driven as a liquid crystal display device, and also to electroluminescent chemical compounds useful as liquid crystals.
  • 2. Detailed Description of the Invention
  • A conventional electroluminescent display device has the structure that a transparent electrode (an anode), a carrier-transporting layer, an organic luminous layer and a backside electrode (a cathode) are successively laid on a transparent substrate. A plurality of transparent electrodes are aligned along X-X direction, while a plurality of backside electrodes are aligned along Y-Y direction, so as to make up XY matrix.
  • When a driving current is supplied to a predetermined position on XY matrix through the transparent and backside electrodes, a hole from the anode recombines with an electron from the cathode in the organic luminous layer. An organic luminous molecule, which is excited by the recombination, emits light. The light is emitted through the transparent electrode and the transparent substrate to the outside.
  • Since the organic electroluminescent display device has the feature that the organic luminous layer itself emits light, a clear image is reproduced as compared to the liquid crystal display device. However, power consumption for driving the organic electroluminescent display device is unfavorably greater than that for the liquid crystal display device using reflection of outside light.
  • The liquid crystal display device reproduces a clear image with high contrast under a light condition, but an image is hardly distinguished at night or in a dark place. Shortage of luminance is supplemented by backlight in order to solve difficulty to distinguish an image. Use of backlight means increase of power consumption.
  • Such difficulty to distinguish an image is overcome by lamination of an electroluminescent element on a liquid crystal display device, as disclosed in Utility Model Publication No. 59-181422. The proposed liquid crystal display device reproduces an image distinguishable in dark place, due to planar emission of the electroluminescent element. The liquid crystal display device is also made thinner than a known liquid crystal display device having an electroluminescent element provided at the back side, since the electroluminescent element is directly laid on the liquid crystal display device.
  • The liquid crystal display device disclosed in Utility Model Publication No. 59-181422 is fabricated by positioning a liquid crystal element composed of a transparent electrode, an oriented film, a polarizing plate, a spacer and a liquid crystal layer between a couple of glass substrates, and then forming an electroluminescent element on one of the glass substrates. Since the electroluminescent element is merely laid on the liquid crystal element, such the liquid crystal display device is necessarily manufactured by a complicated process with increased number of lamination. The increased number of lamination makes it difficult to reduce a thickness of the display device.
    • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
  • The present invention aims at provision of a new electroluminescent element, which reproduces a distinct image with reduced power consumption, and also provision of electroluminescent chemical compounds useful as liquid crystals. An object of the present invention is to bestow a carrier-transporting layer and/or an organic luminous layer with faculty as a liquid crystal, so that the new display device acts as an electroluminescent display device at night or in a dark place without lighting and also as a liquid crystal display device at a daytime or in a lighting place.
  • The newly proposed organic electroluminescent display device has one or both of a carrier-transporting layer and an organic luminous layer bestowed with faculty of a liquid crystal, so as to be driven as a liquid crystal display device or as an electroluminescent display device in response to magnitude of a drive voltage. The display device may be driven by either a simple matrix method or an active matrix method.
  • For instance, it is driven as a liquid crystal display device, which reproduces an image with variable contrast, at a voltage lower than a light emission initiating potential, and as an electroluminescent display device at a voltage higher than a light emission initiating potential, due to the feature of a conventional organic electroluminescent element which need a higher drive voltage. Such change of display mechanism saves power consumption.
  • Of course, it is predicted that the organic electroluminescent element can be driven at a voltage lower than that for a liquid crystal with progress of technology on an organic electroluminescent element. In such a case, display mechanism will be switched between the electroluminescent display device and the liquid crystal display device, accounting distinctness of an image.
  • The new organic electroluminescent display device having a carrier-transporting layer bestowed with faculty as a liquid crystal is of the structure that at least one carrier-transporting layer composed of a liquid crystal and at least one organic luminous layer are sandwiched between a transparent electrode and a backside electrode each held in parallel to the other. The organic luminous layer is made of a polymer, a low molecule-dispersed polymer or a bilayer of a polymer and a monomer. The carrier-transporting layer disperses a nematic liquid crystal or a low-molecular carrier-transporting substance therein.
  • The new organic electroluminescent element having an organic luminous layer bestowed with faculty as a liquid crystal is of the structure that at least one carrier-transporting layer and at least one organic luminous layer composed of a liquid crystal are sandwiched between a transparent electrode and a backside electrode each held in parallel to the other. In this case, the carrier-transporting layer is made of a polymer, a low molecule-dispersed polymer or a bilayer of a polymer and a monomer. The organic luminous layer contains a nematic liquid crystal therein.
  • The new organic electroluminescent element having both of a carrier-transporting layer and an organic luminous layer bestowed with faculty as liquid crystals is of the structure that the carrier-transporting layer and the organic luminous layer, both of which contain liquid crystals therein, are sandwiched between a transparent electrode and a backside electrode.
  • Two or more of different organic compounds may be included in a liquid crystal layer, by blending a liquid crystal with an organic luminous substance for instance.
  • In case of using an electroluminescent liquid crystal compound as an organic luminous layer, an electroluminescent display device may be fabricated without deposition of a carrier-transporting layer. The wording “electroluminescent” of such a liquid crystal means ability of carrier-transportation (including carrier-injection) and light emission as a faculty of an electroluminescent device in this specification.
  • The newly proposed organic electroluminescent substance, which also perform liquid crystal faculty, are chemical compounds I-V having general structures under-mentioned. 12-OKB, 8-OKB and 16-OKB belong to the chemical compound I, 18-OXD belongs to the chemical compound II, 8-OCu belongs to the chemical compound III, 8-PNP—O12 belongs to the chemical compound IV, and TPD-8 belongs to the chemical compound V.

    • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
  • The newly proposed electroluminescent display device is of structure as shown in FIG. 1. A transparent electrode 2 (an anode) is laid on a transparent substrate 1 such as glass or synthetic resin film, by vapor deposition of ITO or the like. After a carrier-transporting layer 3, an organic luminous layer 4 and a backside electrode 5 (a cathode) are successively laid thereon, the whole body is hermetically sealed with a protective layer such as a glass or metal sheet.
  • The transparent electrode 2 is formed in a striped shape extending along X-X direction, while the backside electrode 5 is formed in a striped shape extending along Y-Y direction crossing X-X direction with a right angle. The trilayer structure that an electron-transporting layer and a hole-transporting layer are placed at both sides of the organic luminous layer 4 may be also adopted.
  • A gap between the transparent electrode 2 and the backside electrode 5 is charged with a voltage by a driving circuit 5. When application of the voltage is controlled by signals representing an image, the organic luminous layer 4 is excited at a predetermined position on X-Y matrix. Light is emitted by excitation of the luminous layer 4 to reproduce the image. A positive direct current is ordinarily used for the charging, but a reverse voltage may be superimposed to inhibit degradation of the organic luminous layer 4.
  • One or more of under-mentioned polymers and copolymers are solely or combinatively used for substance of the organic luminous layer 4. A polymer-type organic luminous layer may be formed by application of a liquid to form a coating layer. Hereinafter, the word “polymers” used in the specification of the present invention involves copolymers.

    Copolymers
  • P(VK-co-OXD) (a random copolymer of 9-vinylcarbazole with oxadiazole vinyl monomer), PTDOXD (an alternate arrangement polymer of tetraphenyl diamine with oxadiazole)
  • A low molecule-dispersed polymer, which comprises a polymer dispersing a low molecule as a dopant, is also useful for formation of the organic luminous layer. A dopant for the purpose may be organic substances having constitutional formulas as follows.
    Figure US20070164257A1-20070719-C00008
    Figure US20070164257A1-20070719-C00009

    Figure US20070164257A1-20070719-C00011
  • Use of a low molecule-dispersed polymer enables adjustment of a luminous color in correspondence with a kind and concentration of a dopant. For instance, a luminous color such as blue, green or orange is realized by doping PVK (polyvinylcarbazole) with fluorochrome such as TPB (1,1,4,4,-tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene), cumarin, DCM-1 or rubrene. In the case where such a low molecule-dispersed polymer is used for an organic luminous layer, a luminous color from a part can be advantageously differentiated from the other part by pre-doping the polymer with multiple pigments so as to diminish fluorescent of a specified pigment(s) by irradiation with light of specified wavelength. A luminous plane may be properly patterned by partial irradiation using a photomask.
  • The organic luminous layer may be of bilayer structure. For instance, when 1,2,4-triazoles/aluminum complex is deposited as a hole blocking layer on a luminous layer composed of poly(N-vinylcarbazole) capable of hole transportation, the luminous layer emits blue light. A luminous color is freely changed by selection of fluorochrome for doping poly(N-vinylcarbazole).
  • Faculty as a liquid crystal display device is realized by laying a liquid crystal layer containing a nematic liquid crystal on a carrier-transporting layer or an organic luminous layer which has been used so far as organic electroluminescent substances, or by mixing such the liquid crystal in the carrier-transporting layer or the organic luminous layer. A carrier-transporting layer or an organic luminous layer may be also made of a substance which acts as both a liquid crystal and an electroluminescence. Such the substance may be a nematic liquid crystal prepared by the following process, for instance.

    • EXAMPLE 1
  • After an ITO film was laid on a glass substrate (a transparent substrate 1), the substrate was washed. A positive resist material applied onto the substrate by a spin coater and then annealed at 100° C. for 50 minutes, to form a resist film. The resist film was irradiated 10 seconds with a ultraviolet ray, using a photomask having a predetermined pattern. The irradiated resist film was developed by washing with ion-exchanged water to flush solubilized resist material. Thereafter, the glass substrate was chemically etched, and the remaining resist film was dissolved off the substrate, so as to shape the ITO film (a transparent electrode 2) to a striped pattern.
  • After the ITO layer is patterned, an organic luminous substance MEH-PPV [poly(2-methoxy-5-ethyl hexoxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene] was deposited on the substrate to thickness of 100 nm and then rubbed. A thin Al film was vapor deposited as a patterned backside electrode 5 on another glass substrate, and then MEH-PPV was deposited to thickness of 100 nm and rubbed. These glass substrates were piled up and bonded together with epoxy resin except for a liquid crystal injecting hole. A cell gap between the substrates was adjusted to 900 nm.
  • A liquid crystal prepared by dispersing 12-OKB in 5CB at a ratio of 10 wt. % was used as an organic luminous substance. 12-OKB was a nematic liquid crystal, which was transferred to a liquid crystal phase near a room temperature in a state incorporated in 5CB. Schlieren texture was observed at ratios of 5 wt. %, 10 wt. % and 20 wt. %.
  • MEH-PPV as an electron-transporting luminescent compound was synthesized through 2-2-1,1-(2′-ethyl-hexyloxy)-4-methoxybenzene (EHMB) and then 2-2-2,1,4-bis(chloromethyl)-2-(2′-ethyl-hexyloxy)-5-methoxybenzene (BCMB) as follows:
  • At first, 3-bromomethyl heptane dissolved in ethanol was dropped in an ethanol liquid dissolving methoxyphenol and potassium hydroxide therein in a nitrogen gas stream. After 3-bromomethyl heptane was completely dropped, the liquid was refluxed 24 hours at 80° C. in an oiling bath. After the reaction, the liquid was filtered, the filtrate was recovered, and the solvent was removed in an evaporator. Chloroform was added to a remaining liquid. The liquid was washed with IN dilute hydrochloric acid aqueous solution, 1N sodium hydroxide aqueous solution and then water. Thereafter, the washed matter was dried 8 hours at 70° C. under vacuum. The obtained product was light yellow, and identified as EHMB by 1H-NMR and elemental analysis. A yield ratio was 82.3% in this case.
    Figure US20070164257A1-20070719-C00026
  • Thereafter, EHMB dissolved in 1,4-dioxane was dropped in a formaldehyde solution (37%) and hydrochloric acid (37%) kept at 0° C. After EHMB was completely dropped, the liquid was stirred 18 hours at a room temperature. A formaldehyde solution and hydrochloric acid were further added to the liquid at a period 10 hours after initiation of the reaction, and then the liquid was refluxed 5 hours in an oiling bath after 18 hours. When the reaction was finished, a reaction product was extracted in chloroform and washed with 1N-sodium hydroxide aqueous solution and then water, and the solvent was removed in an evaporator. After hot methanol was added to the processed liquid, the liquid was left as such at a room temperature and then put in a freezing chamber. A white coarse crystal was obtained. The coarse crystal was refined by dissolving it in methanol and then recrystallizing, washed with cold methanol, and then dried 8 hours at 40° C. under vacuum. A product was white solid, and identified as BCMB by 1H-NMR and elemental analysis. An yield ratio was 28.6%.
    Figure US20070164257A1-20070719-C00027
  • After BCMB and tert-butyl benzyl chloride (as an endcap agent) was dissolved in THF, potassium tert-butoxide was added to the liquid, and the liquid was stirred 30 hours at a room temperature in a nitrogen atmosphere. When the reaction was finished, THF was quantitatively decreased to about 1/10 in an evaporator, so as to precipitate red sediment by injection of methanol (a poor solvent). A red polymer was produced by drying a filtrate 8 hours at 40° C. under vacuum.

    Figure US20070164257A1-20070719-C00031
  • Polarizing plates 9,10 were respectively laid on both surfaces of the cell 7, so that each polarizing plane was set parallel to the other. In this case, the surface of the cell was dark under power-off condition, but turned to light by application of 15V.

  • For comparison, a cell was fabricated without use of PVK. In this case, an initial voltage for light emission originated in cumarin-6 increased to 110V.
  • Decrease of the initial voltage means that PVK mixed in the liquid crystal act as a carrier-transporting substance, while cumarin-6 has faculty as a luminous substance.

    Figure US20070164257A1-20070719-C00032
  • Polarizing plates 9,10 were respectively laid on both surfaces of the cell 7, so that each polarizing plane was set parallel to the other. In this case, the surface of the cell was dark under power-off condition, but turned to light by application of 13V. Polarizing plates 9,10 were laid on both surfaces of the cell 7, so that each polarizing plane crossed to the other with a right angle on the contrary. In this case, the surface of the cell was light under power-off condition, but turned to dark by application of 13V. Turning to dark or light proved faculty as a reflecting liquid crystal display device. Light emission originated in MEH-PPV was observed, when the cell was charged with a voltage of 50V or higher. Luminance of 1.2 cd/m2 at most was gained at 120V. The result proved that the liquid crystal layer containing a low molecule carrier-transporting substance dispersed therein has faculty as a carrier-transporting layer.
    • EXAMPLE 7
  • Two glass substrates coated with ITO patterns were prepared by the same way as Example 1. PEDOT doped with PSS (polyethylene sulfonate) was deposited as a thin layer of 100 nm in thickness on one glass substrate and then rubber, while MEH-PPV was deposited as an electroluminescent layer of 100 nm in thickness and then rubbed. These glass substrates were piled up with a cell gap of 1 μm in the manner such that the PEDOT layer faced to the MEH-PPV layer, and bonded together with epoxy resin except for a liquid crystal injecting hole. In this example, a liquid prepared by dispersing TPD-8 in 5CB at a ratio of 5 mass % was used as a carrier-transporting substance.
  • TPD-8 was gradually heated at a speed of 20° C./minute, held 5 minutes at a predetermined temperature and cooled at a speed of 3° C./minute on a hot stage for observation of its crystallinity. TPD-8 solely did not behave as a liquid crystal. However, when TPD-8 disposed in 5CB at a ratio of 5 mass % was subjected to the same examination, phase transition was detected at 35° C. on a cooling stage. The phase transition temperature lowered as increase of concentration of TPD-8 in 5CB. The result proves that TPD-8 was transformed to a liquid crystal at a room temperature in the state incorporated in 5CB. TPD-8 dispersed in 5CB at a ratio of 5, 10 or 20 mass % was a nematic liquid crystal having Schlieren texture. The phase transition may be derived from collapse of structure of 5CB due to steric hindrance caused by triphenylamine structure of TPD-8 or by magnitude of a rotation angle of an octyloxy unit at a p-position.
  • The bonded substrates (an empty cell) were dried 1 hour at a room temperature, received in Petri dish filled with the liquid crystal, and set in a desiccator. The empty cell was evacuated by a vacuum pump, and its liquid crystal injecting hole was dipped in the liquid crystal reserved in Petri dish, so that the liquid crystal slowly flowed from Petri dish into the empty cell. After a sufficient amount of the liquid crystal was poured in the empty cell, the liquid crystal injecting hole was hermetically sealed with adhesives 8 (epoxy resin), as shown in FIG. 4. Thereafter, the cell was dried 1 hour.

In this case, the surface of the cell was dark under power-off condition, but turned to light by application of 18V. Polarizing plates 9,10 were laid on both surfaces of the cell 7, so that each polarizing plane crosses to the other with a right angle on the contrary. In this case, the surface of the cell was light under power-off condition, but turned to dark by application of 18V. Turning to dark or light proved faculty as a liquid crystal display device. Light emission originated in MEH-PPV was observed, when the cell was charged with a voltage of 28V or higher. Luminance of 2.5 cd/m2 at most was gained at 47V. Faculty of 12-OKB as a hole-transporting substance was recognized by such the light emission.
    • EXAMPLE 8
  • PSS-doped PEDOT was used as an oriented film to liquid crystal instead of MEH-PPV. An electroluminescent liquid crystal was prepared by adding 10 mass % 12-OKB and 0.3.mol % Ir(ppy)3 to 5CB instead of TPD-8 and heated at 50° C. An electroluminescent cell was fabricated in the same way as Example 7.
  • Polarizing plates 9,10 were respectively laid on both surfaces of the cell 7, so that each polarizing plane was set parallel to the other. In this case, the surface of the cell was dark under power-off condition, but turned to light by application of 10V. Polarizing plates 9,10 were laid on both surfaces of the cell 7, so that each polarizing plane crosses to the other with a right angle on the contrary. In this case, the surface of the cell was light under power-off condition, but turned to dark by application of 10V. Turning to dark or light proved faculty as a liquid crystal display device. Light emission originated in Ir(ppy)3 was observed, when the cell was charged with a voltage of 57V or higher. Luminance of 17.8 cd/m2 at most was gained at 92V. The results prove that 5CB dispersing 12-OKB therein behaved as a hole-transporting substance, while Ir(ppy)3 behaved as a light-emitting substance.
  • The produced organic electroluminescent device had voltage-current characteristic as shown in FIG. 5 and relationship of emission intensity with voltage as shown in FIG. 6.
  • The organic electroluminescent display device proposed by the present invention can be also driven as a liquid crystal display device, since a carrier-transporting layer and/or an organic luminous layer having faculty as a liquid crystal element is laminated on a transparent substrate. Due to the faculty as a liquid crystal element, the new display device is used as a liquid crystal display device at a day time or in a lighted place where an image is distinctly observed, and also as an electroluminescent display device in a dark place. Such switching of display mechanism saves power consumption. Furthermore, the new electroluminescent display device can be fabricated in a thin state without complication of process, since a liquid crystal substance is incorporated in the carrier-transporting layer and/or the organic luminous layer of the organic electroluminescent element itself.
