  • Display 1 A display using an organic EL element as a display element (organic EL display) has been put into practical use for a long time. Such displays typically have pixels that exhibit at least three colors of light, red, green, and blue, in order to achieve a full-color display.
  • the pixel is provided with a light-emitting device for each emission color, and in a side-by-side display, a so-called separate-painting display, each light-emitting device has a different light-emitting substance according to the emission color of the corresponding pixel. are doing.
  • Examples of light-emitting substances used in such light-emitting devices include a fluorescent light-emitting substance that emits light from a singlet excited state, a substance that emits thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), and a substance that emits light from a triplet excited state.
  • TADF thermally activated delayed fluorescence
  • Phosphorescent substances and the like are mainly used and are being actively studied.
  • the ratio of the singlet excited state to the triplet excited state is 1:3.
  • the theoretical limit of internal quantum efficiency is known to be 25%.
  • a phosphorescent substance can convert a singlet excited state to a triplet excited state by intersystem crossing, so that it can theoretically achieve an internal quantum efficiency of 100%, and a light-emitting device with high luminous efficiency can be obtained. can be done. Therefore, phosphorescent light-emitting materials are often used for red and green light-emitting devices in organic EL displays currently in practical use.
  • the first factor is that the triplet state energy is lower than the singlet state energy in ordinary substances. Since blue light emission has high energy, a substance having a triplet excited level higher than that of the other two colors is required in order to obtain light emission from the triplet excited state. Naturally, the singlet excitation level of such a substance exists at a higher position, and a substance having such a level tends to be unstable. Moreover, when a host material is used, the host material needs to be a substance having a triplet excitation level and a singlet excitation level positioned at a higher energy level.
  • the second factor is the length of the emission lifetime (also referred to as phosphorescence lifetime) of the phosphorescent substance. Since the transition from the triplet excited state to the singlet ground state is spin-forbidden and the transition from the singlet regular state to the singlet ground state is spin-allowed, phosphorescence has a much longer emission lifetime than fluorescence. (phosphorescence lifetime: ⁇ s, fluorescence lifetime: ⁇ ns). A long phosphorescence lifetime means a long lifetime of triplet excitons. Therefore, in a phosphorescent light-emitting device, the light-emitting substance remains in a high-energy excited state for a long time, which accelerates deterioration of the light-emitting substance itself or surrounding substances.
  • the term excited state energy is higher than in the other two colors, so the effect of the exciton lifetime is even more pronounced than in the red and green phosphorescent devices, and the reliability for practical use is not expected. It is still difficult to obtain.
  • the TADF material mentioned above is a kind of fluorescent substance because it emits light from a singlet excited state, but it enables reverse intersystem crossing. This makes it possible to convert triplet excitation energy into singlet excitation energy, and theoretically achieves an internal quantum efficiency of 100%, similar to phosphorescent materials. Therefore, a light-emitting device using a TADF material as a dopant and a light-emitting device using a TADF material as a host and a fluorescent light-emitting material as a dopant have been proposed, both of which have resulted in an internal quantum efficiency exceeding 25%.
  • TADF materials have the same triplet excitation level problem as phosphorescent materials, and since reverse intersystem crossing is forbidden, TADF materials have long exciton lifetimes, making them as reliable as blue phosphorescent devices. It is currently difficult to secure
  • organic complexes of Ce 3+ (4 f1 ) and Eu 2+ (4 f7 ) that emit light by fd transition which is a transition between f orbitals and d orbitals.
  • Both the ground state and the excited state of these organic complexes are doublet states, and light is emitted from the doublet excited state.
  • a singlet excited level and a triplet excited level are generated from the singlet ground state at a ratio of 1:3. Since both are doublet states, 100% of doublet excited states are theoretically generated without being restricted by the spin selection rule, and 100% internal quantum efficiency is possible.
  • transitions between different orbitals are parity-forbidden, but fd transitions are parity-allowed transitions, so the transition speed is high and the exciton lifetime of the organic complexes described above is short.
  • the transition speed is comparable to that of fluorescent light-emitting materials and is very fast.
  • organic complexes of Ce 3+ (4 f1 ) and Eu 2+ (4 f7 ) that emit from the doublet excited state associated with the f–d transition are capable of 100% internal quantum efficiency and exciton It can be seen that it is a light-emitting substance that is expected to ensure high efficiency and high reliability in light-emitting devices because of its short life.
