Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to an organic electroluminescent 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].
- the organic EL device(OLED) converts electric energy into light when electricity is applied to an organic light-emitting material(s).
- the 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 (comprising a host material and a dopant material), an electron buffering layer, a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, etc.
- materials for forming the organic layer can be classified as a hole injection material, a hole transport material, an electron blocking material, a light-emitting material, an electron buffering material, a hole blocking material, an electron transport material, an electron injection material, etc.
- 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 organic light-emitting 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 can additionally include a yellow- or orange-emitting material.
- the light-emitting material can be classified according to its function, as a host material and a dopant material. Recently, the development of OLED providing high efficiency and a long lifespan is urgent.
- a host material which plays a role as a solvent in a solid state and transfers energy, should have high purity, and an appropriate molecular weight for being deposited under a vacuum.
- a host material should have high glass transition temperature and high thermal decomposition temperature to ensure thermal stability; high electrochemical stability to have a long lifespan; ease of preparation for amorphous thin film; and good adhesion to materials of adjacent layers.
- a host material should not move to an adjacent layer.

Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an organic electroluminescent compound and an organic electroluminescent device comprising the same. The organic electroluminescent compound of the present disclosure is effective in preparing an organic electroluminescent device having low driving voltage and good current and power efficiencies.
Description
The present disclosure relates to an organic electroluminescent 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].
The organic EL device(OLED) converts electric energy into light when electricity is applied to an organic light-emitting material(s). Generally, the 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 (comprising a host material and a dopant material), an electron buffering layer, a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, etc. Depending on its function, materials for forming the organic layer can be classified as a hole injection material, a hole transport material, an electron blocking material, a light-emitting material, an electron buffering material, a hole blocking material, an electron transport material, an electron injection material, 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 organic light-emitting 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 the colors visualized by light-emission, the light-emitting materials can be classified as a blue-, green-, or red-emitting material, and can additionally include a yellow- or orange-emitting material. Furthermore, the light-emitting material can be classified according to its function, as a host material and a dopant material. Recently, the development of OLED providing high efficiency and a long lifespan is urgent. In particular, considering EL requirements for a middle or large-sized OLED panel, materials showing better performance than conventional ones must be urgently developed. In order to achieve the development, a host material which plays a role as a solvent in a solid state and transfers energy, should have high purity, and an appropriate molecular weight for being deposited under a vacuum. In addition, a host material should have high glass transition temperature and high thermal decomposition temperature to ensure thermal stability; high electrochemical stability to have a long lifespan; ease of preparation for amorphous thin film; and good adhesion to materials of adjacent layers. Furthermore, a host material should not move to an adjacent layer.
Japanese Patent Application Laying-Open No. 2014-160813 discloses a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound formed by condensing a pyrrole ring, an aromatic ring, and a 7-membered ring, and an organic electroluminescent element comprising the same.

The two compounds were then evaporated at different rates, so that the dopant was deposited in a doping amount of 3 wt% based on the total amount of the host and dopant to form a light-emitting layer having a thickness of 40nm on the hole transport layer. Compounds ET-1 and EI-1 were then introduced into another two cells of the vacuum vapor depositing apparatus, respectively, and evaporated at the same rate of 1:1, thereby forming an electron transport layer having a thickness of 30nm on the light-emitting layer. After depositing compound EI-1 as an electron injection layer having a thickness of 2nm on the electron transport layer, an Al cathode having a thickness of 80nm was then deposited by another vacuum vapor deposition apparatus on the electron injection layer to produce OLED.
