Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electroluminescent compound comprised of a metal complex, which shows excellent electrical conductivity and electroluminescent property with high efficiency, and an electroluminescent device comprising the same as a host material.
- iridium(i ⁇ ) complexes are widely known as phosphorescent dopants, including (acac)Ir(btp) , Ir(ppy) and Firpic, as the red, green and blue one, re- spectively.
- phosphorescent dopants including (acac)Ir(btp) , Ir(ppy) and Firpic, as the red, green and blue one, re- spectively.
- a lot of phosphorescent materials have been investigated in Japan and Europe and America, so that development of further improved phosphorescent materials is expected.
- CBP As a host material for phosphorescent light emitting material, CBP is most widely known up to the present, and OLEDs having high efficiency to which a hole blocking layer such as BCP and BAIq, etc. has been applied have been known.
- Pioneer (Japan) reported OLEDs having high efficiency using a BAIq derivative as the host.
- the materials in prior art are advantageous in view of light emitting property, they have low glass transition temperature and very poor thermal stability, so that the materials tend to be changed during high temperature vacuum- vapor-deposition process. In addition, they are not satisfactory in terms of lifetime of an OLED device, so that development of host materials having better material stability and more excellent EL performance is required.
- [10] According to the present invention, developed are metal complex materials exhibiting excellent material stability, excellent electrical conductivity and luminous property of high efficiency as compared to conventional materials.
- An aromatic ring containing a hetero atom or a side chain substituent hetero atom containing non- bonding electron pair has a property to readily coordinate to metal. Such a coordination shows very stable property in electrochemical aspect, which has been known widely.
- the present invention developed various ligands, prepared metal complexes having above-mentioned properties and applied them as host materials.
- the object of the invention is to overcome the disadvantages as described above, and to provide mixed type ligand-metal complexes as electroluminescent materials, which are very excellent in luminous and physical properties as compared to conventional organic host materials or aluminum complexes.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an electroluminescent device containing the electroluminescent compound thus prepared as a host material.

ELECTROLUMINESCENT COMPOUNDS AND ORGANIC ELECTROLUMINESCENT DEVICE
USING THE SAME
Technical Field
[1] The present invention relates to an electroluminescent compound comprised of a metal complex, which shows excellent electrical conductivity and electroluminescent property with high efficiency, and an electroluminescent device comprising the same as a host material.
[2]
Background Art [3] The most important factor to determine luminous efficiency in an OLED is the electroluminescent characteristics of electroluminescent material. Though a fluorescent material has been widely used as an electroluminescent material up to the present, a development of phosphorescent material is one of the best solutions to improve luminous efficiency theoretically up to four times in view of electroluminescent mechanism.
[4] Up to now, iridium(iπ) complexes are widely known as phosphorescent dopants, including (acac)Ir(btp) , Ir(ppy) and Firpic, as the red, green and blue one, re- spectively. In particular, a lot of phosphorescent materials have been investigated in Japan and Europe and America, so that development of further improved phosphorescent materials is expected.

[6] As a host material for phosphorescent light emitting material, CBP is most widely known up to the present, and OLEDs having high efficiency to which a hole blocking layer such as BCP and BAIq, etc. has been applied have been known. Pioneer (Japan) reported OLEDs having high efficiency using a BAIq derivative as the host.

[9] Though the materials in prior art are advantageous in view of light emitting property, they have low glass transition temperature and very poor thermal stability, so that the materials tend to be changed during high temperature vacuum- vapor-deposition process. In addition, they are not satisfactory in terms of lifetime of an OLED device, so that development of host materials having better material stability and more excellent EL performance is required.
[10] According to the present invention, developed are metal complex materials exhibiting excellent material stability, excellent electrical conductivity and luminous property of high efficiency as compared to conventional materials. An aromatic ring containing a hetero atom or a side chain substituent hetero atom containing non- bonding electron pair has a property to readily coordinate to metal. Such a coordination shows very stable property in electrochemical aspect, which has been known widely. The present invention developed various ligands, prepared metal complexes having above-mentioned properties and applied them as host materials.
[H] A number of conventional complexes of such type have been researched since the middle of 1990's. However, those materials have been applied merely as an electroluminescent material, but rarely as a host material.

invention is to provide an electroluminescent device containing the electroluminescent compound thus prepared as a host material. [14]

[157] First, a transparent electrode ITO thin film (15 Ω/D) obtained from a glass for OLED was subjected to ultrasonic washing with trichloroethylene, acetone, ethanol and distilled water, subsequently, and stored in isopronanol before use.
[158] Then, an ITO substrate was equipped in a substrate folder of vacuum vapor-deposit device, and 4,4',4"-tris(N,N-(2-naphthyl)-phenylamino)triphenylamine (2-TNATA) represented by following structural formula was placed in a cell of the vacuum vapor- deposit device, which was then ventilated up to 10" torr of vacuum in the chamber. Electric current was applied to the cell to evaporate 2-TNATA to vapor-deposit a hole injection layer having 40 nm of thickness on the ITO substrate.
[159]

[160] Then, to another cell of the vacuum vapor-deposit device, charged was N,N'-bis(α-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-4,4'-diamine (NPB), and electric current was applied to the cell to evaporate NPB to vapor-deposit a hole transport layer of 20 nm of thickness on the hole injection layer.
[161]

[162] [163] After forming the hole injection layer and hole transport layer, an electroluminescent layer was vapor-deposited thereon as follows. In one cell of the vacuum vapor-deposit device, charged was a compound selected from Compounds 1-1 through 1-18 which was purified via sublimation in vacuo under 10" torr, as a host material, and in another cell, charged was (NPy) Ir(acac). The two materials were evaporated at different rates to give doping of 4-10 mol%, to vapor-deposit light emitting layer having 30 nm of thickness on the hole transport layer.
(Npy)2Ir(acac)
[165] Then, tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum(III) (AIq) represented by following structural formula was vapor-deposited as an electron transport layer in a thickness of 20 nm, and lithium quinolate (Liq) represented by following structural formula was vapor-deposited as an electron injection layer in a thickness of 1 to 2 nm. Thereafter, an Al cathode was vapor-deposited in a thickness of 150 nm by using another vapor- deposit device to manufacture an OLED.
[166]

[167] [Comparative Example 1] [168] An OLED device was made according to the same procedure as described in Example 1, but bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinato)(p-phenylphenolato)aluminum(III) (BAIq) was charged to another cell in the vacuum vapor-deposit device as a light emitting host material, while (NPy) Ir(acac) was charged as a light emitting material in still another cell, and the two materials were evaporated at different rates to give doping of 4-10 mol%, to vapor-deposit a light emitting layer having 30 nm of thickness on said hole transport layer.

Comparative Example 1 were measured at 1,000 cd/m , of which the results are shown in Table 1.
[173] From the Table showing the light emitting properties of the complexes developed by the present invention, it is found that the complexes developed by the present invention exhibit excellent properties in terms of performances as compared to conventional material.

[175] As can be seen from the Table, when the electroluminescent material according to the present invention is applied as a host, the EL performance is noticeably improved as a rule.
[176] Fig. 1, an EL spectrum of Comparative Example 1 wherein (NPy) Ir(acac) compound (emitting orange-red light) was used as an electroluminescent material and BAIq as a host material, shows maximum EL peak at about 624 nm. From Fig. 2 showing luminance-applied voltage characteristic of Comparative Example 1, it is confirmed that driving voltage of the device of Comparative Example 1 is about 5 V, and the driving voltage at 1,000 cd/m (standard of Table 1) was 7.49 V. From Fig. 3
which shows luminous efficiency-luminance characteristic of Comparative Example 1 and Table 1, it is confirmed that the device of Comparative Example 1 showed luminous efficiency of about 6.16 cd/A at the luminance of about 1,000 cd/m , and color coordinates of (0.677,0.321).
[177] As can be seen from Fig. 4 which shows luminance-applied voltage characteristic of the OLED device prepared according to Example 14, the device of Example 14 employing the electroluminescent compound according to the present invention showed driving voltage of about 3 V, and luminance of about 1,000 cd/m at about 4.86 V; the result shows decrease of driving voltage by at least 2.6 V as compared to the device of Comparative Example 1.
[178] Further, as can be seen from Fig. 5 which shows luminous efficiency-luminance characteristic of the device according to Example 14, it showed luminous efficiency of about 6.67 cd/A at 1,000 cd/m of luminance; which shows higher luminous efficiency by about 0.5 cd/A as compared to the device of Comparative Example 1 at the same luminance.
[179] With respect to power efficiency which is considered important in a practical panel, since the term voltage is included in the denominator in Formula 1 below, the device having lowered driving voltage becomes far advantageous in terms of power consumption:
[180] Power efficiency(lm/W)=(π x luminance)/(current density x voltage) (1)
[181] As can be seen from Table 1 above, the device employing an electroluminescent compound according to the present invention as the host material lowers the driving voltage to induce increase of power efficiency by 0.5 ~ 2.0 lm/W, thereby improving the power consumption.
[182]
Industrial Applicability
[183] When the electroluminescent compounds according to the present invention are employed in OLED devices as a host material, driving voltage is noticeably lowered and power efficiency is considerably increased. Thus, the compounds in the present invention are suitable for an OLED material in next generation, and expected to greatly contribute for the development of large size display adopted OLED.
