- Compound 1 does not have a melting point like Alq3, so Tg is not observed, but its decomposition temperature is 414 ° C, and it is estimated that the thin film produced by this material has excellent high-temperature stability.
- the BAlq used in the comparative example has a melting point of 233 ° C and a Tg of 99 ° C, and the above degradation occurred because crystallization progressed in the device during storage tests at 100 ° C It can be considered.
- the organic EL element according to the present invention is a light source (for example, a light source of a copying machine) that has features as a flat panel display (for example, for OA computers and wall-mounted televisions), an in-vehicle display element, a mobile phone display and a surface light emitter. It can be applied to LCDs, backlights for measuring instruments), display panels, and beacon lights, and its technical value is great.
