Definitions

• the present invention relates to novel organic electroluminescent compounds and organic electroluminescent devices employing the same. Specifically, it relates to novel anthracene derivatives having electroluminescent properties, and organic electroluminescent devices employing the same as electroluminescent material.
• electroluminescence (EL) devices being self-luminous type display devices, have advantages of wide visual angle, excellent contrast as well as rapid response 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].
• An organic EL device is a device wherein, when charge is applied to an organic film formed between an electron injection electrode (cathode) and a hole injection electrode (anode), an electron and a hole form a pair and then become extinct with emitting light.
• a device can be formed on a transparent flexible substrate such as plastics. The device can be operated at a lower voltage (not more than 10 V) with relatively lower power consumption but excellent color purity, as compared to a plasma display panel or an inorganic EL display. Since the organic electroluminescent (EL) devices can develop three colors (green, blue and red), they have been focused for full colored display devices for next generation.
• electroluminescent material The most important factor to determine luminous efficiency, lifetime or the like in an organic EL device is electroluminescent material.
• electroluminescent materials include that the material should have high luminescent quantum yield in solid state and high mobility of electrons and holes, is not easily decomposed during vapor-deposition in vacuum, and forms uniform and stable thin film.
• An organic EL device is composed of anode/HIL/HTL/EML/ETL/EIL/cathode.
• the color of the light emitted (blue, green, red) from the organic electroluminescent device can be realized depending on how the electroluminescent layer (EML) is formed.
• the electroluminescent materials are classified into host materials and dopant materials from the aspect of their functions. It is generally known that a device structure having the most excellent EL properties can be fabricated with an EL layer prepared by doping a dopant to a host. Recently, development of organic EL devices with high efficiency and long life comes to the fore as an urgent subject, and particularly urgent is development of a material with far better EL properties as compared to conventional EL materials as considering EL properties required for a medium to large sized OLED panel.
• a green fluorescent material As a green fluorescent material, a system wherein a coumarine derivative (Compound d, C545T), a quinacridone derivative (Compound e), DPT (Compound f) or the like is doped to Alq (a host), as a dopant, in a concentration from several % to not more than 20 % has been developed and widely used.
• the conventional electroluminescent materials suffer from significant problem in view of lifetime with noticeable reduction of initial efficiency, though they show good performance in view of initial luminous efficiency at the level of practical use.
• the materials have limitations to be employed for a high performance panel of larger screen.
• the object of the invention is to overcome the problems described above, and to provide organic electroluminescent compounds comprising an excellent backbone to obtain better luminous efficiency, device life and appropriate color coordinate, as compared to conventional host materials.
• Another object of the invention is to provide organic electroluminescent devices of high efficiency and long life by employing those organic electroluminescent compounds as electroluminescent material.
• novel organic electroluminescent compounds were prepared according to the invention.
• Those compounds can be employed as electroluminescent material for an organic electroluminescent device, particularly as electroluminescent host, preferably green host.
• the compounds according to the invention provides organic electroluminescent devices with enhanced efficiency, lowered operation voltage and improved stability.
