Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a combination of a host compound and a dopant compound, and an organic electroluminescent device comprising the same.
  • An electroluminescent (EL) device is a self-light-emitting device which has advantages in that it provides a wider viewing angle, a greater contrast ratio, and a faster response time.
  • An organic EL device was first developed by Eastman Kodak, by using small aromatic diamine molecules and aluminum complexes as materials to form a light-emitting layer [Appl. Phys. Lett. 51, 913, 1987].
  • an organic EL device has a structure comprising an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer disposed between the anode and the cathode.
  • the organic layer of the organic EL device comprises a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, a light-emitting layer, a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, etc.
  • Excitons having high energy are formed by recombinations between the holes and the electrons, the energy puts the light-emitting organic compound in an excited state, and the decay of the excited state results in a relaxation of the energy level into a ground state, accompanied by light-emission.
  • the most important factor determining luminous efficiency in the organic EL device is light-emitting materials.
  • the light-emitting material needs to have high quantum efficiency, high electron mobility, and high hole mobility.
  • the light-emitting layer formed by the light-emitting material needs to be uniform and stable.
  • the light-emitting materials can be classified as a blue-, green-, or red-emitting material, and a yellow- or orange-emitting material can be additionally included therein.
  • the light-emitting materials can be classified as a host material and a dopant material.
  • devices showing the best electroluminescent characteristics comprise a light-emitting layer in which a dopant is doped into a host, in general. Furthermore, depending on the excited state, the light-emitting material can be classified as fluorescent materials (singlet state) and phosphorescent materials (triplet state). Fluorescent materials have been widely used for the organic EL device. However, since phosphorescent materials enhance luminous efficiency for converting electricity to light by four (4) times compared to fluorescent materials and can reduce power consumption to have longer lifespan, development of phosphorescent light-emitting materials are widely being researched.
  • Iridium(III) complexes have been widely known as phosphorescent dopant materials, including bis(2-(2’-benzothienyl)-pyridinato-N,C-3’)iridium(acetylacetonate) ((acac)Ir(btp) 2 ), tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium (Ir(ppy) 3 ), and bis(4,6-difluorophenylpyridinato-N,C2)picolinate iridium (Firpic) as red-, green- and blue-emitting materials, respectively.
  • CBP 4,4’-N,N’-dicarbazol-biphenyl
  • BCP bathocuproine
  • BAlq aluminum(III) bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinate)(4-phenylphenolate)
  • phosphorescent host materials provide good light-emitting characteristics, they have the following disadvantages: (1) Due to their low glass transition temperature and poor thermal stability, their degradation may occur during a high-temperature deposition process in a vacuum. (2) The power efficiency of the organic EL device is given by [( ⁇ /voltage) ⁇ current efficiency], and the power efficiency is inversely proportional to the voltage. Although the organic EL device comprising phosphorescent host materials provides higher current efficiency (cd/A) than one comprising fluorescent host materials, a significantly high driving voltage is necessary. Thus, there is no merit in terms of power efficiency (lm/W). (3) Furthermore, the operational lifespan of the organic EL device is short, and luminous efficiency is still required to be improved.
  • Korean Patent Application Laying-open No. 10-2011-0130475 discloses iridium complexes for being used as a dopant compound of an organic electroluminescent device, and compounds having triphenylene moiety and dibenzothiophene moiety as a host compound suitable for being combined with the iridium complexes.
  • Korean Patent Application Laying-open No. 10-2011-0015836 discloses organic electroluminescent compounds having a carbazole moiety, and a combination of said compound and Ir(ppy) 3 or (piq) 2 Ir(acac) [bis-(1-phenylisoquinolyl)iridium(III) acetylacetonate].
  • the conventional combination of a dopant compound and a host compound is applied to an organic electroluminescent device, the characteristics such as a driving voltage, luminous efficiency, and power efficiency are not satisfactory.
  • the present inventors found that when using a combination of a specific iridium complex and a specific carbazole-containing compound as a light-emitting material, it is possible to produce an organic electroluminescent device showing excellence in luminous and power efficiencies at a low driving voltage.
  • the objective of the present disclosure is to provide a combination of a dopant compound and a host compound, which can provide excellent luminous and power efficiencies, long lifespan, and a lowered driving voltage; and an organic electroluminescent device showing long lifespan, excellent luminous and power efficiencies, and a low driving voltage by comprising the combination.

Description

COMBINATION OF A HOST COMPOUND AND A DOPANT COMPOUND AND ORGANIC ELECTROLUMINESCENT DEVICE COMPRISING THE SAME
The present disclosure relates to a combination of a host compound and a dopant compound, and an organic electroluminescent device comprising the same.
An electroluminescent (EL) device is a self-light-emitting device which has advantages in that it provides a wider viewing angle, a greater contrast ratio, and a faster response time. An organic EL device was first developed by Eastman Kodak, by using small aromatic diamine molecules and aluminum complexes as materials to form a light-emitting layer [Appl. Phys. Lett. 51, 913, 1987].
Generally, an organic EL device has a structure comprising an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer disposed between the anode and the cathode. The organic layer of the organic EL device comprises a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, a light-emitting layer, a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, etc. When a voltage is applied to the organic EL device, holes and electrons are injected from an anode and a cathode, respectively, to the light-emitting layer. Excitons having high energy are formed by recombinations between the holes and the electrons, the energy puts the light-emitting organic compound in an excited state, and the decay of the excited state results in a relaxation of the energy level into a ground state, accompanied by light-emission.
The most important factor determining luminous efficiency in the organic EL device is light-emitting materials. The light-emitting material needs to have high quantum efficiency, high electron mobility, and high hole mobility. Furthermore, the light-emitting layer formed by the light-emitting material needs to be uniform and stable. Depending on colors visualized by light-emission, the light-emitting materials can be classified as a blue-, green-, or red-emitting material, and a yellow- or orange-emitting material can be additionally included therein. Depending on its function, the light-emitting materials can be classified as a host material and a dopant material. It is known that devices showing the best electroluminescent characteristics comprise a light-emitting layer in which a dopant is doped into a host, in general. Furthermore, depending on the excited state, the light-emitting material can be classified as fluorescent materials (singlet state) and phosphorescent materials (triplet state). Fluorescent materials have been widely used for the organic EL device. However, since phosphorescent materials enhance luminous efficiency for converting electricity to light by four (4) times compared to fluorescent materials and can reduce power consumption to have longer lifespan, development of phosphorescent light-emitting materials are widely being researched.
Recently, the development of an organic EL device providing high efficiency and long lifespan is an urgent issue. In particular, considering EL characteristic requirements for a middle or large-sized panel of OLED, materials showing better characteristics than conventional ones must be urgently developed.
Iridium(III) complexes have been widely known as phosphorescent dopant materials, including bis(2-(2’-benzothienyl)-pyridinato-N,C-3’)iridium(acetylacetonate) ((acac)Ir(btp)2), tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium (Ir(ppy)3), and bis(4,6-difluorophenylpyridinato-N,C2)picolinate iridium (Firpic) as red-, green- and blue-emitting materials, respectively.
The host materials influence the efficiency and performance of the EL device, and thus their selection is important. At present, 4,4’-N,N’-dicarbazol-biphenyl (CBP) is the most widely known host material for phosphorescent materials. Recently, Pioneer (Japan) et al., developed a high performance organic EL device using bathocuproine (BCP) and aluminum(III) bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinate)(4-phenylphenolate) (BAlq) etc., as host materials, which were known as hole blocking materials.
Although these phosphorescent host materials provide good light-emitting characteristics, they have the following disadvantages: (1) Due to their low glass transition temperature and poor thermal stability, their degradation may occur during a high-temperature deposition process in a vacuum. (2) The power efficiency of the organic EL device is given by [(π/voltage) × current efficiency], and the power efficiency is inversely proportional to the voltage. Although the organic EL device comprising phosphorescent host materials provides higher current efficiency (cd/A) than one comprising fluorescent host materials, a significantly high driving voltage is necessary. Thus, there is no merit in terms of power efficiency (lm/W). (3) Furthermore, the operational lifespan of the organic EL device is short, and luminous efficiency is still required to be improved.
Korean Patent Application Laying-open No. 10-2011-0130475 discloses iridium complexes for being used as a dopant compound of an organic electroluminescent device, and compounds having triphenylene moiety and dibenzothiophene moiety as a host compound suitable for being combined with the iridium complexes. Korean Patent Application Laying-open No. 10-2011-0015836 discloses organic electroluminescent compounds having a carbazole moiety, and a combination of said compound and Ir(ppy)3 or (piq)2Ir(acac) [bis-(1-phenylisoquinolyl)iridium(III) acetylacetonate]. However, where the conventional combination of a dopant compound and a host compound is applied to an organic electroluminescent device, the characteristics such as a driving voltage, luminous efficiency, and power efficiency are not satisfactory.
The present inventors found that when using a combination of a specific iridium complex and a specific carbazole-containing compound as a light-emitting material, it is possible to produce an organic electroluminescent device showing excellence in luminous and power efficiencies at a low driving voltage.
The objective of the present disclosure is to provide a combination of a dopant compound and a host compound, which can provide excellent luminous and power efficiencies, long lifespan, and a lowered driving voltage; and an organic electroluminescent device showing long lifespan, excellent luminous and power efficiencies, and a low driving voltage by comprising the combination.
The present inventors found that the above objective can be achieved by a combination of one or more dopant compounds represented by the following formula 1 and one or more host compounds represented by the following formula 2, and an organic electroluminescent device comprising the same.

Device Example 1: Production of an OLED using the present combination
An OLED was produced using the combination according to the present disclosure. A transparent electrode indium tin oxide (ITO) thin film (15 Ω/sq) on a glass substrate for an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) (Samsung Corning) was subjected to an ultrasonic washing with trichloroethylene, acetone, ethanol, and distilled water, sequentially, and then was stored in isopropanol. The ITO substrate was then mounted on a substrate holder of a vacuum vapor depositing apparatus. N1,N1'-([1,1'-biphenyl]-4,4'-diyl)bis(N1-(naphthalen-1-yl)-N4,N4-diphenylbenzen-1,4-diamine) was introduced into a cell of said vacuum vapor depositing apparatus, and then the pressure in the chamber of said apparatus was controlled to 10-6 torr. Thereafter, an electric current was applied to the cell to evaporate the introduced material above, thereby forming a hole injection layer having a thickness of 60 nm on the ITO substrate. N,N'-di(4-biphenyl)-N,N'-di(4-biphenyl)-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl was then introduced into another cell of the vacuum vapor depositing apparatus, and was evaporated by applying an electric current to the cell, thereby forming a hole transport layer having a thickness of 20 nm on the hole injection layer. Thereafter, compound H-19 was introduced into one cell of the vacuum vapor depositing apparatus, as a host compound, and compound D-2 was introduced into another cell as a dopant compound. The two materials were evaporated at different rates, so that the dopant was deposited in a doping amount of 15 wt% based on the total amount of the host and dopant to form a light-emitting layer having a thickness of 30 nm on the hole transport layer. 2-(4-(9,10-di(naphthalen-2-yl) anthracen-2-yl)phenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole was then introduced into one cell, and lithium quinolate was introduced into another cell. The two materials were evaporated at the same rate, so that they were respectively deposited in a doping amount of 50 wt% to form an electron transport layer having a thickness of 30 nm on the light-emitting layer. After depositing lithium quinolate as an electron injection layer having a thickness of 2 nm on the electron transport layer, an Al cathode having a thickness of 150 nm was then deposited by another vacuum vapor deposition apparatus on the electron injection layer. Thus, an OLED was produced. All the material used for producing the OLED were those purified by vacuum sublimation at 10-6 torr.
