Description

有机发光元件 技术领域
本发明涉及有机发光元件,特别是应用了硼配位化合物后光取出效率得到大幅改善的有机发光元件,本发明还涉及用于上述有机发光元件的发光元件材料。
背景技术
有机发光元件是一种自发光的显示装置,具有轻薄、广视角、低耗电、高对比等特点。
有机发光元件的发光原理是,在从电极注入的空穴与电子在发光层通过再结合而经由激发态回复到基态时产生光。该发光元件具有薄型且能在低驱动电压下高亮度发光以及能通过选择发光材料而进行多色发光的特征,因此倍受关注。
该研究自从由柯达公司的C.W.Tang等揭示有机薄膜元件能以高亮度发光以来,对于其应用,已有许多研究。有机薄膜发光元件被采用在手机主显示屏等中,其实用化取得切实进展。但是,还存在很多技术课题,其中,元件的高效率化和低耗电是一个很大的课题。
根据有机发光层产生的光所发射的方向,有机发光元件可以分为底发射有机发光元件和顶发射有机发光元件。在底发射有机发光元件中,光射向基板侧,在有机发光层的上部形成有反射电极,在有机发光层的下部形成有透明电极。这种情况下,当有机发光元件为有源矩阵元件时,由于形成有薄膜晶体管的部分不透光,所以,发光面积减小。另一方面,在顶发射有机元件 中,透明电极形成在有机发光层的上部,反射电极形成在有机发光层的下部,所以光射向与基板侧相反的方向,由此,光所透过的面积增加,亮度提高。
现有技术中,为了提高顶发射有机发光元件的发光效率,所采用的方法有在使发光层的光透过的上部半透明金属电极上形成有机覆盖层,以此调节光学干涉距离,抑制外光反射和由表面等离子体能量移动引起的消光等(可参见专利文献1~5)。
例如,专利文献2记载,在顶发射有机发光元件的上部半透明金属电极上形成折射率在1.7以上、膜厚
Figure PCTCN2018115705-appb-000001
的有机覆盖层,使红色发光和绿色发光有机发光元件的发光效率提高了约1.5倍。所用的有机覆盖层的材料是胺衍生物、喹啉醇络合物等。
专利文献4记载,能隙小于3.2eV的材料会影响蓝色波长,不适合用于有机覆盖层,使用的有机覆盖层材料是具有特定化学结构的胺衍生物等。
专利文献5记载,要实现低CIEy值的蓝色发光元件,有机覆盖层材料在波长430nm-460nm的折射率变化量为Δn>0.08,使用的有机覆盖层材料是具有特定化学结构的蒽衍生物等。
如上所述,在现有技术中,使用具有高折射率的特定结构的胺衍生物或使用符合特定参数要求的材料作为有机覆盖层材料来改善光取出效率和色纯度,但是尚未解决兼顾发光效率和色纯度的问题,特别是在制备蓝光发光元件的情况下。

发明内容
为了解决上述兼顾发光效率和色纯度的问题,本发明者发现当覆盖层为高折射层和低折射层的层叠体、并且是使用满足特定参数的材料形成时,尤其是低折射层由满足特定参数要求、具有硼配位化合物的材料形成时,能够解决兼顾提高光取出效率与改善色纯度的问题。根据本发明,能够得到发光取出效率大幅度提高且具有优越的色纯度的有机发光元件。
本发明提供一种有机发光元件,其包含基板、第一电极、包括发光层在内的一层以上有机层膜、及第二电极,所述发光元件还具有覆盖层;所述覆盖层配置于第二电极上,所述覆盖层包括高折射层和低折射层;所述覆盖层的低折射层由有机小分子化合物形成。其覆盖顺序为从第二电极起依次为高折射层和低折射层、或依次为低折射层和高折射层。
所述高折射层折射率为1.8以上,低折射层的折射率为1.5-1.7。所述高折射层的折射率和低折射层的折射率之差为0.3以上。
所述高折射层由下述无机化合物和有机化合物中的至少一种形成,其中所述无机化合物是SiOx、SiNy、Zns、ZnSe、ZrO或TiO 2中的一种或多种;所述x,y为1~4的整数。所述有机化合物是芳胺衍生物、咔唑衍生物、苯并咪唑衍生物或三唑衍生物中的一种或多种。因为无机化合物相比于有机化合物在蒸镀工艺中需要更高的温度,因此优选高折射率材料为有机化合物。
本发明的低折射层既可以位于第一电极和第二电极之间,也可以位于第二电极和覆盖层之间,还可以位于第二电极之上。
由于在第二电极上配置有覆盖层,其能够有效地保护第二电极和有机发光层避免受到外面的湿气、氧气和污染物的影响,从而能够防止有机发光元件的寿命下降。顶发射发光元件比底发射发光元件具有扩大发光面的优点,从而提高光取出效率。
在上述通过使用覆盖层材料来实现高发光效率、高色纯度的发光元件中,要求覆盖层具有低折射率层。
作为低折射层材料,现有技术中通常会选择长链烷烃和无机氟化物等,但是长链烷烃在高温容易分解,使用蒸镀方式有困难;无机氟化物则有蒸镀温度高的问题。
现有技术中还提出过使用π共轭结构的芳胺衍生物,咔唑衍生物,苯并咪唑衍生物或三唑衍生物等作为低折射层材料的方案,但是上述芳胺衍生物衰减系数高,所以折射率高达1.7以上,其衰减系数和吸光系数有下式(A)的所示的关系。(式中,α:吸光系数、k:衰减系数、ω:光频率、c:光速)
Figure PCTCN2018115705-appb-000002
如式(A)显示衰减系数和吸光系数成正比,因此,吸光系数高的材料,其衰减系数也高。所以以上均不适合用于低折射率材料。在以上结果的基础上进行了深入研究后,本发明者发现,硼配位化合物适用于低折射率材料。此外还发现,由于硼配位化合物用于覆盖层时具有良好的透明性,能使发光效率提高及得到高色纯度元件。
作为满足上述特性的有机材料,优选覆盖层的低折射层由具有硼配位化合物的材料形成。
在本发明中,优选硼配位化合物具体地如以下通式1所示:

上述通式1、2、3所示的硼配位化合物的合成可以使用已知的方法进行。例如有机硼试剂和乙二胺(含水杨基)衍生物反应等,但并不限定于这些方法。
下面具体说明本发明的有机发光元件的实施方式。本发明的有机发光元件依次具有基板、第一电极、包括发光层在内的一层以上的有机层膜、使前述发光层发出的光透过的第二电极和覆盖层,发光层通过电能而发光。
在本发明的发光元件中,所用的基板优选为钠玻璃或无碱玻璃等玻璃基板。对于玻璃基板的厚度,只要是足以保持机械强度的厚度即可,因此,0.5mm以上就足够。对于玻璃的材质,由于从玻璃中溶出的离子越少越好,因此,优选无碱玻璃。另外,市场上销售的涂有SiO 2等防护涂层的也可以使用。此外,如果第一电极稳定地发挥功能,则基板不必一定为玻璃,例如,也可以在塑料基板上形成阳极。
第一电极中使用的材料优选为具有高折射率特性的金、银、铝等金属或APC系合金之类的金属合金。这些金属或金属合金也可以是多层层叠。此外,可在金属、金属合金或它们的层积体的上面和/或下面层叠氧化锡、氧化铟、氧化锡铟(ITO)、氧化锌铟(IZO)等透明导电性金属氧化物。
第二电极中使用的材料优选为可形成能使光透过的半透明或透明膜的材料。例如,银、镁、铝、钙或这些金属的合金,氧化锡、氧化铟、氧化锡铟 (ITO)或氧化锌铟(IZO)等透明导电性金属氧化物。这些金属、合金或金属氧化物也可以是多层层叠。
上述电极的形成方法可以是电阻加热蒸镀、电子束蒸镀、溅射、离子喷镀或胶涂布法等,没有特别限制。此外,第一电极与第二电极根据所使用的材料的功函数,其中一方相对于有机膜层起阳极作用,另一方起阴极作用。
有机层除了可以仅由发光层构成以外,还可以是由1)空穴传输层/发光层,2)发光层/电子传输层,3)空穴传输层/发光层/电子传输层,4)空穴注入层/空穴传输层/发光层/电子传输层,5)空穴注入层/空穴传输层/发光层/电子传输层/电子注入层等层叠而成的结构。此外,上述各层可以分别是单层或多层中的任一种。采用1)~5)的结构时,阳极侧电极与空穴输入层或空穴传输层接合,阴极侧电极则与电子输入层或电子传输层接合。
空穴传输层可通过将空穴传输材料的一种或二种以上层叠或混合的方法,或通过使用空穴传输材料和高分子粘合剂的混合物的方法来形成。空穴传输材料需要在施加了电场的电极之间高效率地传输来自正极的空穴,因此希望空穴注入效率高、能够高效率地传输注入的空穴。因此,要求空穴传输材料具有适当离子势,且空穴迁移率大,进而,稳定性优异,制造及使用时不容易产生会成为陷阱的杂质。对满足这样的条件的物质,没有特别限定,例如可以是4,4’-二(N-(3-甲基苯基)-N-苯基氨基)联苯(TPD)、4,4’-二(N-(1-萘基)-N-苯基氨基)联苯(NPD)、4,4’-二(N,N-二(4-联苯基)氨基)联苯(TBDB)、二(N,N-二苯基-4-苯基氨基)-N,N-二苯基-4,4’-二氨基-1,1’-联苯(TPD232)等联苯胺,4,4’,4”-三(3-甲基苯基(苯基)氨基)三苯胺(m-MTDATA)、4,4’, 4”-三(1-萘基(苯基)氨基)三苯胺(1-TNATA)等称作星型三芳胺的材料组,具有咔唑骨架的材料,其中优选咔唑类多聚体,具体可列举二(N-芳基咔唑)或二(N-烷基咔唑)等二咔唑衍生物、三咔唑衍生物、四咔唑衍生物、三苯系化合物、吡唑啉衍生物、芪系化合物、肼系化合物、苯并呋喃衍生物、噻吩衍生物、噁二唑衍生物、酞菁衍生物、卟啉衍生物等杂环化合物、或富勒烯衍生物,在聚合物系中,还优选侧链上具有上述单体的聚碳酸酯或苯乙烯衍生物、聚噻吩、聚苯胺、聚芴、聚乙烯基咔唑和聚硅烷等。此外,还可以使用P型Si、P型SiC等无机化合物。
可在阳极和空穴传输层之间设置空穴注入层。通过设置空穴注入层,可使有机发光元件实现低驱动电压,提高耐久寿命。空穴注入层通常优选使用比空穴传输层材料的离子势低的材料。具体地,例如可以是上述TPD232之类的联苯胺衍生物、星型三芳胺材料组,另外也可以使用酞菁衍生物等。此外,还优选空穴注入层由受体性化合物单独构成,或受体性化合物掺杂在别的空穴传输层中使用。受体性化合物可列举例如三氯化铁(III)、氯化铝、氯化镓、氯化铟、氯化锑等金属氯化物,氧化钼、氧化钒、氧化钨、氧化钌等金属氧化物,三(4-溴苯基)六氯锑酸铵(TBPAH)等电荷转移配位物。此外,还可以是分子内具有硝基、氰基、卤素或三氟甲基的有机化合物、醌系化合物、酸酐系化合物或富勒烯等。
本发明中,发光层可以是单层、多层中的任一种,可分别用发光材料(主体材料、掺杂材料)形成,其可以是主体材料和掺杂材料的混合物,也可以仅为主体材料,任一情况都可以。即,在本发明发光元件的各发光层中,可以是仅主体材料或仅掺杂材料发光,也可以是主体材料和掺杂材料一起发光。从高效率地利用电能、得到高色纯度的发光的角度考虑,优选发光层由主体 材料和掺杂材料混合而成。另外,主体材料和掺杂材料分别可以为一种,也可以为多种的组合,任一情况都可以。掺杂材料可以添加在整个主体材料中,也可以添加在一部分中,任一情况都可以。掺杂材料可以是层叠的,也可以分散的,任一情况都可以。掺杂材料可以控制发光色。掺杂材料的量过多时会发生浓度消光现象,因此,其用量相对于主体材料,优选为20重量%以下,更优选为10重量%以下。掺杂方法可以是与主体材料共蒸镀的方法,也可以是预先与主体材料混合后同时蒸镀的方法。
作为发光材料,具体而言,可使用以往作为发光体而已知的蒽、芘等稠环衍生物,三(8-羟基喹啉)铝等金属螯合类羟基喹啉化合物、二苯并呋喃衍生物、咔唑衍生物、吲哚并咔唑衍生物,聚合物中的聚亚苯基亚乙烯基衍生物、聚对亚苯基衍生物、以及聚噻吩衍生物等,没有特别限定。
对发光材料中所含有的主体材料没有特别限定,可以使用蒽、菲、芘、苯并菲、并四苯、苝、苯并[9,10]菲、荧蒽、芴、茚等具有稠芳环的化合物或其衍生物、N,N’-二萘基-N,N’-二苯基-4,4’-二苯基-1,1’-二胺等芳香族胺衍生物、三(8-羟基喹啉)铝等金属螯合类羟基喹啉化合物、吡咯并吡咯衍生物、二苯并呋喃衍生物、咔唑衍生物、吲哚并咔唑衍生物、三嗪衍生物,在聚合物中,可以使用聚亚苯基亚乙烯基衍生物、聚对亚苯基衍生物、聚芴衍生物、聚乙烯基咔唑衍生物、聚噻吩衍生物等,没有特别限定。
此外,对掺杂材料没有特别限制,可列举萘、蒽、菲、芘、苯并菲、苝、苯并[9,10]菲、荧蒽、芴、茚等具有稠芳环的化合物或其衍生物(例如2-(苯并噻唑-2-基)-9,10-二苯基蒽等)、呋喃、吡咯、噻吩、噻咯、9-硅杂芴、9,9’-螺二硅杂芴、苯并噻吩、苯并呋喃、吲哚、二苯并噻吩、 二苯并呋喃、咪唑并吡啶、菲咯啉、吡啶、吡嗪、萘啶、喹喔啉、吡咯并吡啶、噻吨等具有杂芳环的化合物或其衍生物、硼烷衍生物、二苯乙烯基苯衍生物、氨基苯乙烯基衍生物、吡咯甲川衍生物、二酮基吡咯并[3,4-c]吡咯衍生物、香豆素衍生物、咪唑、噻唑、噻二唑、咔唑、噁唑、噁二唑、三唑等唑衍生物、芳香族胺衍生物等。
另外,发光层中也可以掺杂磷光发光材料。磷光发光材料为室温下也可以磷光发光的材料。使用磷光发光材料作为掺杂剂时,需要基本上能够在室温下磷光发光,但没有特别限定,优选含有选自铟、钌、铑、钯、铂、锇和铼中的至少一种金属的有机金属络合化合物。从室温下具有高的磷光发光效率的角度考虑,更优选具有铟或铂的有机金属络合物。作为与磷光发光性掺杂剂组合使用的主体材料,吲哚衍生物、咔唑衍生物、吲哚并咔唑衍生物,具有吡啶、嘧啶、三嗪骨架的含氮芳香族化合物衍生物,多芳基苯衍生物、螺芴衍生物、三聚茚、苯并[9,10]菲等芳香烃化合物衍生物,二苯并呋喃衍生物、二苯并噻吩等含有氧族元素的化合物,羟基喹啉铍络合物等有机金属络合物可良好地使用,但基本上只要比使用的掺杂剂的三重态能大、电子和空穴能从各自层输送层顺利地注入或传输,则没有特别限定。另外,可以含有2种以上三重态发光掺杂剂,也可以含有2种以上主体材料。此外,也可以含有一种以上的三重态发光掺杂剂和一种以上的萤光发光掺杂剂。
在本发明中,电子传输层为电子从阴极注入、再将电子传输的层。电子传输层宜具有高的电子注入效率,且能高效率地传输注入的电子。因此,电子传输层优选由电子亲和力和电子迁移率大且稳定性优异、制造及使用时不容易产生会成为陷阱的杂质的物质构成。但是,在考虑空穴和电子的传输均衡时,如果电子传输层主要发挥可以高效率地阻止来自阳极的空穴不再结合 而流向阴极侧的作用,则即使由电子传输能力不那么高的材料构成,改善发光效率的效果也会与由电子传输能力高的材料构成的情况同等。因而,在本发明中的电子传输层中,可以高效率地阻止空穴迁移的空穴阻止层作为等同物也包含在内。
对电子传输层中使用的电子传输材料没有特别限定,可列举萘、蒽等稠芳环衍生物、以4,4’-二(二苯基乙烯基)联苯为代表的苯乙烯基系芳环衍生物、蒽醌、联苯醌等醌衍生物、氧化膦衍生物、三(8-羟基喹啉)铝等羟基喹啉络合物、苯并羟基喹啉络合物、羟基唑络合物、偶氮甲碱络合物、环庚三烯酚酮金属络合物或黄酮醇金属络合物,从降低驱动电压、能够得到高效率发光的角度考虑,优选使用具有杂芳环结构的化合物,所述杂芳环结构由选自碳、氢、氮、氧、硅、磷中的元素构成并且含有吸电子性氮。
含有吸电子性氮的杂芳环具有高亲电子性。具有吸电子性氮的电子传输材料容易接受来自具有高亲电子性的阴极的电子,因而可以降低发光元件的驱动电压。此外,由于向发光层的电子供给增大、在发光层再结合的概率增加,因而发光效率提高。作为含有吸电子性氮的杂芳环,可以列举例如,吡啶环、吡嗪环、嘧啶环、喹啉环、喹喔啉环、萘啶环、嘧啶并嘧啶环、苯并喹啉环、菲咯啉环、咪唑环、噁唑环、噁二唑环、三唑环、噻唑环、噻二唑环、苯并噁唑环、苯并噻唑环、苯并咪唑环、或菲并咪唑环等。
另外,作为具有这些杂芳环结构的化合物,可以列举出例如苯并咪唑衍生物、苯并噁唑衍生物、苯并噻唑衍生物、噁二唑衍生物、噻二唑衍生物、三唑衍生物、吡嗪衍生物、菲咯啉衍生物、喹喔啉衍生物、喹啉衍生物、苯并喹啉衍生物,联吡啶、三联吡啶等低聚吡啶衍生物。上述衍生物具有稠芳环骨架时,玻璃转化温度提高,且电子迁移率增加,由此,降低发光元件的 驱动电压的效果增大,因而优选。此外,从发光元件的耐久寿命提高、合成容易、原料容易购得的角度考虑,优选上述稠芳环骨架为蒽骨架、芘骨架或菲咯啉骨架。
上述电子传输材料可以单独使用,也可以将二种以上的上述电子传输材料混合使用,或将一种以上的其它电子传输材料混合到上述电子传输材料中使用。另外,也可以添加给体化合物。这里,给体化合物是指通过改善电子注入能障而使电子容易从阴极或电子注入层向电子传输层注入、进而改善电子传输层的电传导性的化合物。作为本发明的给体化合物的优选例,可列举:碱金属、含有碱金属的无机盐、碱金属与有机物的络合物、碱土金属、含有碱土金属的无机盐、或碱土金属与有机物的络合物等。作为碱金属、或碱土金属的优选种类,可列举低功函数且改善电子传输能力的效果大的锂、钠、或铯之类的碱金属或镁、钙之类的碱土金属。
本发明中,也可在阴极和电子传输层之间设置电子注入层。通常,电子注入层是以帮助电子从阴极注入到电子传输层为目的而插入的,插入时,可以使用含有吸电子性氮的杂芳环结构的化合物,也可以使用含有上述给体化合物的层。另外,在电子注入层中,还可以使用绝缘体或半导体的无机物。使用这些材料,可以有效地防止发光元件短路,且可以提高电子注入性,因而优选。作为这些绝缘体,优选使用选自碱金属硫族化物、碱土金属硫族化物、碱金属卤化物及碱土金属卤化物中的至少一种金属化合物。另外,有机物与金属的络合物也可良好地使用。
作为构成发光元件的上述各层的形成方法,可列举电阻加热蒸镀、电子束蒸镀、溅射、分子层叠法或涂层法等,没有特别限制,但是,通常,从元件特性的角度考虑,优选电阻加热蒸镀或电子束蒸镀。
有机层的厚度视发光物质的电阻值而异,不能限定,但优选为1~1000nm。发光层、电子传输层、空穴传输层的膜厚分别优选为1nm以上200nm以下,更优选为5nm以上100nm以下。
本发明的覆盖层通过含有上述具有硼配位化合物,能够实现高发光效率。硼配位化合物因为具有亚烷基连接,具有氟元素从而具有低的折射率。更进一步,因为具有优异的蒸镀薄膜的成膜性能,不论玻璃或金属等各种各样的底层都具有稳定的折射率和消衰系数。蒸镀薄膜的成膜性能低的材料的底层变化的时候,折射率和消衰系数往往也会发生较大的变化。为了使高发光效率极大化、实现色再现性,优选使含有硼配位化合物以20nm~120nm的厚度层叠。更优选层叠厚度为40nm~80nm。另外,从可以使发光效率极大化的角度考虑,更优选层叠厚度为50nm~70nm。
对覆盖层的形成方法没有特别限定,可列举电阻加热蒸镀、电子束蒸镀、溅射、分子层叠法、涂层法、喷墨法、刮板法或激光转印法等,没有特别限制。
本发明的发光元件具有可以将电能转换为光的功能。这里,作为电能,主要使用直流电流,也可以使用脉冲电流或交流电流。对电流值及电压值没有特别限制,但考虑到元件的耗电量和寿命时,应以能以尽可能低的能量得到最大亮度的方式来选择。
本发明的发光元件可良好地用作以例如矩阵及/或字段方式进行显示的平面显示器。
矩阵方式是指用于显示的像素以方格状或马赛克状等二维配置,通过像素的集合来显示文字或图像。像素的形状、尺寸视用途而定。例如,在计算机、监控器、电视的图像及文字显示中,通常使用边长在300μm以下的四边 形的像素,另外,在显示面板那样的大型显示器的情况下,使用边长为mm等级的像素。在单色显示的情况下,只要排列同色的像素即可,但在彩色显示的情况下,将红、绿、蓝色像素排列进行显示。这种情况下,典型的有三角型和条纹型。而且,该矩阵的驱动方法可以是逐线驱动方法和有源矩阵中的任一种。逐线驱动虽然其构造简单,但在考虑操作特性时,有时会有有源矩阵优异的情况,因此,需要根据用途灵活使用。
本发明中的字段方式是指形成图案、使由该图案的配置所确定的区域发光、从而显示预先确定的信息的方式。可列举例如:数字钟、温度计中的时刻、温度显示,音响设备、电磁灶等的工作状态显示及汽车的面板显示等。而且,所述矩阵显示和字段显示可以共存在同一个面板中。
本发明的发光元件优选用作照明光源,可以提供比现有的薄且轻、可进行面发光的光源。
