Description

ELECTROLUMINESCENT COMPOUNDS COMPMSING

Technical Field

[1] The present invention relates to an electroluminescent compound comprised of blue electroluminescent materials, which show excellent luminous property with high effi- άencyand excellent lifetime, and electroluminescent devices oomprising the same in the electroluminescent layer. Background Art

[2] Among display devices, electroluminescence (EL) devices, being self-luminous type display devices, have advantages of wide visual angle, excellent contrast as well as rapid re -oonse rate. Eastman Kodak firstly developed an organic EL device employing low molecular aromatic diamine and aluminum complex as a substance for forming an electroluminescent layer, in 1987 [Appl. Phys. Lett. 51, 913, 1987].

[3] The most important factor to determine luminous efficiency, lifetime or the lite in an organic EL device is electroluminescent material. Several properties required for such electroluminescent materials include that the material should have high fluorescent proton yield in solid state and high mobility of electrons and holes, is not easily decomposed during vapor-deposition in vacuo, and forms uniform and stable thin film.

[4] Organic electroluminescent materials can be generally classified into high- molecular materials and low-molecular materials. The low-molecular materials include metal complexes and purely organic electroluminescent materials which do not contain metal, from the aspect of molecular structure. Such electroluminescent materials include chelate complexes such as tris(8-quinolinolato)aluminum complexes, coumarin derivatives, tetraphenylbutadiene derivatives, bis(styrylarylene) derivatives, oxadia-ole derivatives. From those materials, it is reported that light emission of visible region from blue to red can be obtained, so that the realization of colored display device ϊs expected.

[5] In the meanwhile, for blue materials, a number of materials have been developed and commercialized since the development of DPYBi (Chemical Formula a) by Idemitsu-Kosan. In addition to the blue material system from Idemitsu-Kosan, dinaph- thylanthracene (Chemical Formula b), tetra(t-butyl)perylene (Chemical Formula c) system or the like have been known. Ebwever, extensive research and development should be performed with respect to these materials. The distrylcompound system of Idemitsu-Kosan, which is known to have highest efficiency up to now, has 6 ImAV of power efficiency and beneficial device lifetime of more than 30,000 hr. However, when it is applied to a full-color display, owing to the reduction of color purity over driving time, the lifetime is merely several thousand hours. In case of blue light, it becomes advantageous from the aspect of the luminous efficiency, if the light emitting wavelength is shifted a little toward longer wavelength. However, it is not easy to apply the material to a display of high quality because of unsatisfaDtory pure blue color. In addition, the research and development of such materials are urgent because of the problems in color purity, efficiency and thermal stability.

[356] Luminous efficiencies of OLEDs comprising the organic electroluminescent compound according to the invention prepared from Example 1 and the conventional electroluminescent compound prepared from Gbmparative Example 1 were measured

2 2 at 500 cd/m and 2,000 od/m , individually, of which the results are shown in Table 1. Since the luminescent properties in the range of lowluminance and those applied on a panel are very important in case of blue electroluminescent material, in particular, the data of luminance ofabout 2,000 od/m was established as the standard in order to reflect those properties. [357] Table 1

As the result, the OLED device employing the organic electroluminescent compound according to the present invention showed higher "luminous effiάencyΛT' value than that of Comparative Example.

[359] In view of the fact that the organic electroluminescent compound according to the invention showed higher "luminous efficiencyΛf "value, it is found that the organic electroluminescent compounds of the present invention is a material havinghigh proton efficiency. In addition, it is found that the organic electroluminescent compounds of the present invention can realize higher efficiency while having the similarcolor purity as compared to conventional electroluminescent compounds. In particular, in case of the series of DPF- 1,2 and 3, the "luminous efficiency/^" value was enhanced by about 2.5 to 3-folds as compared to conventional electroluminescent compound.

As can be seen from Figs. 3-5, the current density-voltage property, luminance-voltage property and luminous efficiency-current density property of the OLED according to the invention were excellent. Industrial Applicability
