Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an organic metallic complex compound for an organic photoelectric device and an organic photoelectric device including the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to an organic metallic complex compound for an organic photoelectric device having improved luminous efficiency and solubility, and an organic photoelectric device including the same.
  • An organic photoelectric device has been highlighted as a next generation display device.
  • the organic photoelectric device can be driven at a low voltage, and can solve various problems of a liquid crystal display (LCD), such that is difficult to make it thinner and have a wide viewing angle and rapid response speed.
  • LCD liquid crystal display
  • An organic photoelectric device of a middle size or less also has equivalent or better image quality to a liquid crystal display (LCD) compared to other displays, and its manufacturing process is very simple. Therefore, it is evaluated to be advantageous in terms of cost in the future.
  • An organic photoelectric device includes an organic light emitting material between a rear plate including ITO transparent electrode patterns as an anode on a transparent glass substrate and an upper plate including a metal electrode as a cathode on a substrate. When a predetermined voltage is applied between the transparent electrode and the metal electrode, current flows through the organic light emitting material to emit light.
  • Such an organic light emitting material for an organic photoelectric device was firstly developed by Eastman Kodak, Inc., in 1987.
  • the material is a low molecular aromatic diamine and aluminum complex as an emission-layer-forming material (Applied Physics Letters. 51 , 913, 1987).
  • C. W. Tang et al. firstly disclosed a practicable device as an organic photoelectric device in 1987 (Applied Physics Letters, 51 12, 913-915, 1987).
  • the organic layer has a structure in which a thin film (hole transport layer (HTL)) of a diamine derivative and a thin film of tris(8-hydroxy-quinolate)aluminum (AIq 3 ) are laminated.
  • HTL hole transport layer
  • AIq 3 tris(8-hydroxy-quinolate)aluminum
  • an organic photoelectric device is composed of an anode of a transparent electrode, an organic thin layer of a light emitting region, and a metal electrode (cathode) formed on a glass substrate, in that order.
  • the organic thin layer may include an emission layer, a hole injection layer (HIL), a hole transport layer (HTL), an electron transport layer (ETL), or an electron injection layer (EIL). It may further include an electron blocking layer or a hole blocking layer due to the emission characteristics of the emission layer.
  • HIL hole injection layer
  • HTL hole transport layer
  • ETL electron transport layer
  • EIL electron injection layer
  • the holes and electrons are injected from the anode and the cathode, respectively.
  • the injected holes and electrons are recombined on the emission layer though the hole transport layer (HTL) and the electron transport layer (ETL) to provide light emitting excitons.
  • the provided light emitting excitons emit light by transiting to the ground state.
  • a light emitting colorant (dopant) may be added in an emission layer (host) in order to increase the efficiency and stability in the emission state.
  • the light emitting material may be classified as a fluorescent material singlet excitons and a phosphorescent material including triplet excitons according to the light emitting mechanism.
  • a phosphorescent light emitting material can be used for a light emitting material of an organic photoelectric device as well as the fluorescent light emitting material (D. F. O'Brien et al., Applied Physics Letters, 74 3, 442-444, 1999; M. A. Baldo et al., Applied Physics letters, 75 1 , 4-6, 1999).
  • Such a phosphorescent material emits light by transiting the electrons from a ground state to an excited state, non-radiance transiting of a singlet exciton to a triplet exciton through intersystem crossing, and transiting a triplet exciton to a ground state to emit light.
  • the triplet exciton When the triplet exciton is transited, it cannot directly transit to the ground state. Therefore, the electron spin is flipped, and then it is transited to the ground state so that it provides a characteristic of extending the lifetime (emission duration) to more than that of fluorescent emission.
  • the duration of fluorescent emission is extremely short at several nanoseconds, but the duration of phosphorescent emission is relatively long such as at several microseconds.
  • the singlet and the triplet are produced in a ratio of 1 :3, in which the triplet light emitting excitons are produced at three times the amount of the singlet light emitting excitons in the organic photoelectric device. Accordingly, the percentage of the singlet exited state is 25% (the triplet is 75%) in the case of a fluorescent material, so it has limits in luminous efficiency. On the other hand, in the case of a phosphorescent material, it can utilize 75% of the triplet exited state and 25% of the singlet exited state, so theoretically the internal quantum efficiency can reach up to 100%. When a phosphorescent light emitting material is used, it has advantages in an increase in luminous efficiency of around three times that of the fluorescent light emitting material.
  • a phosphorescent light emitting material has a molecule structure that is appropriate for intersystem crossing.
  • the molecule structure includes heavy metals such as Ir, Pt, Rh, or Pd in an organic molecule, which incurs spin-orbital coupling and thus triplets and singlets are mixed. Thereby, inhibited transition is allowed and phosphorescent light emission at room temperature can effectively occur.
  • Such an organic metallic complex for phosphorescent light emission is a low molecular material that is applicable using a general dry process such as vacuum deposition.
  • a polymer material it can be applied to a device using a wet process such as spin coating, InkJet printing, or casting.
  • the wet process using a polymer allows ease of device manufacture compared with a dry process such as vacuum deposition, and has merits in terms of costs and scalability.
  • polymer materials have problems of lower life-span, luminous efficiency, color purity, and so on compared with low molecular materials.
  • An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides an organic metallic complex compound for an organic photoelectric device having improved luminous efficiency and solubility.

Description

TITLE OF THE INVENTION
ORGANOMETALLIC COMPLEX COMPOUNDS FOR PHOTOELECTRIC DEVICE AND PHOTOELECTRIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
(a) Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an organic metallic complex compound for an organic photoelectric device and an organic photoelectric device including the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to an organic metallic complex compound for an organic photoelectric device having improved luminous efficiency and solubility, and an organic photoelectric device including the same.
(b) Description of the Related Art
An organic photoelectric device has been highlighted as a next generation display device. The organic photoelectric device can be driven at a low voltage, and can solve various problems of a liquid crystal display (LCD), such that is difficult to make it thinner and have a wide viewing angle and rapid response speed.
An organic photoelectric device of a middle size or less also has equivalent or better image quality to a liquid crystal display (LCD) compared to other displays, and its manufacturing process is very simple. Therefore, it is evaluated to be advantageous in terms of cost in the future. An organic photoelectric device includes an organic light emitting material between a rear plate including ITO transparent electrode patterns as an anode on a transparent glass substrate and an upper plate including a metal electrode as a cathode on a substrate. When a predetermined voltage is applied between the transparent electrode and the metal electrode, current flows through the organic light emitting material to emit light. Such an organic light emitting material for an organic photoelectric device was firstly developed by Eastman Kodak, Inc., in 1987. The material is a low molecular aromatic diamine and aluminum complex as an emission-layer-forming material (Applied Physics Letters. 51 , 913, 1987). C. W. Tang et al. firstly disclosed a practicable device as an organic photoelectric device in 1987 (Applied Physics Letters, 51 12, 913-915, 1987).
According to the reference, the organic layer has a structure in which a thin film (hole transport layer (HTL)) of a diamine derivative and a thin film of tris(8-hydroxy-quinolate)aluminum (AIq3) are laminated.
Generally, an organic photoelectric device is composed of an anode of a transparent electrode, an organic thin layer of a light emitting region, and a metal electrode (cathode) formed on a glass substrate, in that order.
The organic thin layer may include an emission layer, a hole injection layer (HIL), a hole transport layer (HTL), an electron transport layer (ETL), or an electron injection layer (EIL). It may further include an electron blocking layer or a hole blocking layer due to the emission characteristics of the emission layer.
When the organic light emitting diode is applied with an electric field, the holes and electrons are injected from the anode and the cathode, respectively. The injected holes and electrons are recombined on the emission layer though the hole transport layer (HTL) and the electron transport layer (ETL) to provide light emitting excitons. The provided light emitting excitons emit light by transiting to the ground state. A light emitting colorant (dopant) may be added in an emission layer (host) in order to increase the efficiency and stability in the emission state. In the above-mentioned organic photoelectric device, the light emitting material may be classified as a fluorescent material singlet excitons and a phosphorescent material including triplet excitons according to the light emitting mechanism. It is has become known that a phosphorescent light emitting material can be used for a light emitting material of an organic photoelectric device as well as the fluorescent light emitting material (D. F. O'Brien et al., Applied Physics Letters, 74 3, 442-444, 1999; M. A. Baldo et al., Applied Physics letters, 75 1 , 4-6, 1999).
Such a phosphorescent material emits light by transiting the electrons from a ground state to an excited state, non-radiance transiting of a singlet exciton to a triplet exciton through intersystem crossing, and transiting a triplet exciton to a ground state to emit light.
When the triplet exciton is transited, it cannot directly transit to the ground state. Therefore, the electron spin is flipped, and then it is transited to the ground state so that it provides a characteristic of extending the lifetime (emission duration) to more than that of fluorescent emission.
In other words, the duration of fluorescent emission is extremely short at several nanoseconds, but the duration of phosphorescent emission is relatively long such as at several microseconds.
In addition, evaluating quantum mechanically, when holes injected from the anode are recombined with electrons injected from the cathode to provide light emitting excitons, the singlet and the triplet are produced in a ratio of 1 :3, in which the triplet light emitting excitons are produced at three times the amount of the singlet light emitting excitons in the organic photoelectric device. Accordingly, the percentage of the singlet exited state is 25% (the triplet is 75%) in the case of a fluorescent material, so it has limits in luminous efficiency. On the other hand, in the case of a phosphorescent material, it can utilize 75% of the triplet exited state and 25% of the singlet exited state, so theoretically the internal quantum efficiency can reach up to 100%. When a phosphorescent light emitting material is used, it has advantages in an increase in luminous efficiency of around three times that of the fluorescent light emitting material.
A phosphorescent light emitting material has a molecule structure that is appropriate for intersystem crossing. The molecule structure includes heavy metals such as Ir, Pt, Rh, or Pd in an organic molecule, which incurs spin-orbital coupling and thus triplets and singlets are mixed. Thereby, inhibited transition is allowed and phosphorescent light emission at room temperature can effectively occur.
An iridium organic metallic complex has garnered interest due to excellent phosphorescent luminous efficiency, and phosphorescent light emitting materials including such a metallic complex have been reported [Sergey Lamansky et al. Inorg. Chem., 40, 1704-1711 , 2001 & J. Am. Chem. Soc, 123, 4304-4312, 2001].
Such an organic metallic complex for phosphorescent light emission is a low molecular material that is applicable using a general dry process such as vacuum deposition. In the case of a polymer material, it can be applied to a device using a wet process such as spin coating, InkJet printing, or casting.
The wet process using a polymer allows ease of device manufacture compared with a dry process such as vacuum deposition, and has merits in terms of costs and scalability. However, polymer materials have problems of lower life-span, luminous efficiency, color purity, and so on compared with low molecular materials.
Therefore, in order to solve the problems, development of a low material that is applicable to a wet process due to high solubility has been required.

The substrate with the first electrode formed therein went through ultrasonic rinsing in isopropyl alcohol and deionized water for 5 minutes, respectively, and then went through UV ozone cleaning for 30 minutes.
The upper part of the first electrode was spin-coated with poly(ethylenedioxy)thiophene (PEDOT). An emission layer was formed on top of the PEDOT.
As for a host material for the emission layer, a 1 :1 mixture of polyvinylcarbazole (PVK) and 4,4'-N,N'-dicarbazolebiphenyl (CBP) was used.
The organic metallic complex compounds prepared according to Examples 1 to
3 were used in a content of 7% as dopants. The emission layer was spin-coated to a thickness of 500A.
A hole blocking layer was formed to a thickness of 50A on the emission layer through vacuum-deposition of bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinolate)-4-(phenylphenolate)aluminum (BAIq).
Subsequently, an electron transport layer (ETL) was formed at a thickness of 200.A on the hole blocking film through vacuum-deposition of tris(8-hydroxy-quinolate)aluminum (AIq3).
An organic photoelectric device was fabricated by sequentially vacuum-depositing LiF on an electron transport layer (ETL) to a thickness of 10A to form an electron injection layer (EIL), and vacuum-depositing Al as a second electrode.
(Measurement of Organic Photoelectric Device Performance)
To determine the characteristics of the organic photoelectric device fabricated above, initial driving voltage (which is also referred to as "turn-on voltage"), maximum luminance (cd/m2), driving voltage (V) at a luminance of 1000cd/m2, current efficiency (cd/A), and electric power efficiency (Im/W) were measured. The results are shown in the following Table 1.
Also, photoluminescence (PL) intensities of the organic metallic complex compounds prepared according to Examples 1 to 3 were measured, and the measurement results are shown in the following Table 1.
[Table 1]
Figure imgf000030_0001
Referring to Table 1 , although the organic photoelectric device was fabricated not through vacuum deposition but through spin-coating, which is a wet process, the organic metallic complex compound used in the organic thin layer showed high efficiency of about 26cd/A in case of Example 1 , and all had maximum luminance of over 10,000cd/m2.
Also, the driving voltage ranged from 4.2 V to 4.6 V, and the driving voltage at 1000cd/m2 ranged from 8.4 V to 10.2 V. The organic metallic complex compound according to an embodiment of the present invention shows an excellent solubility characteristic in an organic solvent, such as toluene, chloroform, or chlorobenzene, due to decreased Van der Waals force among molecules, which is different from lr(ppy)3 or lr(mppy)3 that are known to be effective among green phosphorescent light emitting organic metallic complex compounds. This proves that the use of the organic metallic complex compound makes it possible to easily fabricate an organic photoelectric device even through a wet process.
When a bulky substituent is introduced into the organic metallic complex compound of the present invention, the organic metallic complex compound can improve solubility since molecules therein become apart from one another, and crystallinity decreases. The organic metallic complex compound suppresses intermolecular interaction and thus improves luminous efficiency and electrical characteristics.
Therefore the organic metallic complex compound according to one embodiment of the present invention may be usefully applied to a phosphorescent light emitting material of an organic photoelectric device.
While this invention has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be practical exemplary embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
