Abstract
Description
【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、フェナントロリン誘導体よりなる電子輸送材料、電荷制御材料およびそれを用いた有機発光素子に関する。
【0002】
【従来技術】
従来、下記式、
【化7】
で示されるトリス(8−ヒドロキシキノリノラト)アルミニウム錯体(以下Alq3と略称することがある)が有機EL素子の発光材料や電子輸送材料として広く使用されている。
【0003】
しかし、Alq3は効率のよい電子輸送材料であるが、このものを使用すると本来緑色の発光材料であるから、緑色に発光する。しかし緑色より短い波長たとえば青色を取り出したい場合にはAlq3は使用することができない。そこで大きなバンドギャップをもつ下記式
【化8】
で示されるバソフェナントロリン(BPhen)や下記式
【化9】
で示されるバソクプロイン(Bathocuproine:BCP)がホールブロック層および/または電子輸送剤として使用されている(特許文献1、特許文献2など参照)。
【0004】
特に、バソフェナントロリンは、電子の移動度が高いことが知られている(非特許文献1、特許文献3)。また、電子輸送材料にセシウム(Cs)をドーピングすることにより、低電圧化、高効率化が可能なことが、例えば山形大学、株式会社アイメス、松下電工株式会社から報告されている(非特許文献2、非特許文献3)。さらに、バソクプロインはリン光材料を利用した素子のホールブロック材料としても注目されている。そして、これらいずれの材料においても、エネルギーレベルのHOMO(最高占有分子軌道)レベルが大きく、バンドギャップが大きいことが特徴である。
【0005】
しかしながら、これらのいずれの材料も耐熱性が乏しく、これらの蒸着膜は再結晶化を起こしやすく、例えば一般的な保存温度範囲(−40℃から85℃)においてさえ、結晶化による素子特性の劣化が発生する。

【0145】
実施例1
本発明の実施例1を図1を参照しながら説明する。
パターニング済みの透明導電膜(ITO)3が200nm成膜されたガラス基板1を界面活性剤を含む水溶液中に浸漬して超音波洗浄し、純水にてリンスを行った。次にイソプロピルアルコールの超音波洗浄で脱脂洗浄し、紫外線を照射してUVオゾン洗浄を行った。〔なお、紫外線オゾン洗浄は、紫外線を使って活性酸素を発生させ、同時に基板表面に付着した有機物を分解、酸化揮発除去する洗浄方法である。実際には、酸素の存在する雰囲気下(この場合は大気雰囲気下)で透明導電膜付ガラス基板に低圧水銀灯により紫外線照射する。照射するのは185nmと254nmの輝線を含む、紫外線である。185nmは空気中の酸素に吸収されオゾンを発生し、254nmの光はオゾンに吸収され、活性酸素に分解する。また185nmのような短波長紫外線は有機物の結合を切断する。活性酸素の酸化作用と切断の作用により有機物は、酸化、分解、揮発される。〕この基板1を真空チャンバーに設置し、1×10−6Torrまで真空排気した。
真空チャンバー内には、有機材料を充填したタンタル性蒸着ボートと所定のパターンで成膜するための金属製薄板マスクを設置しておき、蒸着ボートに電流を流すことにより加熱し、有機材料を蒸発されて成膜をおこなった。最初に正孔注入層5として銅フタロシアニン(以下CuPc)を水晶振動子でモニターしながら22nm成膜した。次に正孔輸送層7として下記式
【化55】
で示されるN,N′−ジ(α−ナフチル)−N,N′−ジフェニル−1,1′−ビフェニル−4,4′−ジアミン(以下αNPD)を34nm成膜し、青色発光層11として下記式
【化56】
で示される4,4′−ビス(2,2′−ジフェニルビニル)ビフェニル(以下DPVBi)を23nm成膜した。
なお、DPVBiに代えてトリス(8−キノリノラト)アルミニウム錯体(Alq3)を発光層用の材料として用いると緑色発光層を形成することができる。
【0146】
ついで、多核型フェナントロリン誘導体により電荷制御層を形成する。すなわち2核型フェナントロリンとして下記式
【化57】
で示される1,4−ジ(1,10−フェナントロリン−2−イル)ベンゼン(DPB)を47nm成膜し、電荷制御層15を形成した。なお、本発明における電荷制御層とは、電子輸送能力を有する層、または電子輸送能力と電荷制御能力を有する層の意味で使用している。また、電荷制御能力とはホールブロック的機能である場合が多い。
【0147】
次に陰極を成膜する。上記の真空チャンバーから基板を取り出し、金属成膜用チャンバーに基板を取り付けた。成膜した有機材料の劣化を防止するため、大気に触れることなく真空一貫工程により基板を移動させた。金属成膜用チャンバーには、陰極用材料と陰極パターン用の金属性薄板マスクを設置した。すなわち、基板上に電極の形状に合わせた開口を有するマスクを設け、その上から陰極材料を蒸着した。有機材料と同様に1×10−6Torr(1.33×10−4Pa)の真空度において成膜を行った。金属製のチャンバー内において、フッ化リチウム(LiF)層17を0.1nm成膜した。次いでアルミニウム(Al)層19を100nm成膜し、陰極21形成した。Liは電極の安定化のために用いられ、Alを共蒸着しても良い。
【0148】
有機発光素子は水分の影響を受けやすいので、その影響を避けるため、成膜後のガラス基板1を不活性なガス、例えばN2ガスで満たされたグローブボックスに移動した。有機発光素子と別のガラス板とを紫外線硬化型接着材を用いて接着しパッケージを形成した。
【0149】
ガラス板を張り合せた有機発光素子の陽極3と陰極21とにDC電源23を接続した。
このようにして形成した有機発光素子にDC電源23により電流を流すと、ガラス基板1側からの発光が観測された。より詳細には、陰極21から注入された電子が電荷制御層15内を通り青色発光層11に向かう。一方陽極3から注入された正孔が正孔輸送層5と正孔注入層7を通り青色発光層11に向かう。青色発光層11内において、電子と正孔とが会合して励起子が発生する。励起子から青色の波長を有する発光が観測される。発光は、ガラス基板1の正面側(積層構造を設けていない側)から観測される。なお、電荷制御層15としてイオン化ポテンシャルが高い材料を選択すると、正孔のブロック機能が高くなり、ホールブロック材料として機能する。実施例1においては、電荷制御層15は、電子輸送機能とホールブロック機能とを有している。
【0150】
上記の工程により製造した有機発光素子に関して、正面方向(ガラス基板1の表面の法線方向)から測定した輝度を、ミノルタカメラ社製の輝度測定装置CS−100を用いて測定した。電流値、電圧値、輝度とから初期効率を計算した。
【0151】
実施例2
基板の種類と基板洗浄法に関しては実施例1の場合と同じである。正孔注入層として銅フタロシアニン(CuPc)を22nm成膜した。次に、正孔輸送層としてα−NPDを34nm成膜した。青色発光層としてDPVBiを23nm成膜した。次いで、電荷制御層として、下記式
【化58】
で示される4,4′−ジ(1,10−フェナントロリン−2イル)ビフェニル(DPBi)を47nm成膜した。実施例2においても電荷制御層は電子輸送機能とホールブロック機能とを有している。陰極を成膜した後のパッケージ工程は、実施例1と同様の工程を適用した。測定手段およぼ測定方法も同じである。
【0152】
比較例1
次に実施例1および実施例2のよる有機発光素子との比較のために、電荷制御層として本発明の多核型フェナントロリン誘導体に代えて下記式
【化59】
で示されるバソフェナントロリン(Bphen)を47nm成膜した。陰極を成膜した後のパッケージ工程は、実施例1や2と同様の工程を適用した。測定手段および測定方法も同じである。
【0153】
比較例2
正孔注入層にCuPcを22nm成膜し、正孔輸送層としてα−NPDを34nm成膜し、青色発光層としてDPVBiを23nm成膜し、最後に電子輸送層としてトリス(8−ヒドロキシキノリノラト)アルミニウム錯体(Alq3)を47nm成膜した以外は実施例1を繰り返した。
【0154】
<耐熱性のテスト>
実施例1および2による有機発光素子と比較例1による有機発光素子とを85℃の恒温槽中に入れ、耐熱性試験を行った。
図5に示すように、比較例1による有機発光素子においては85℃の耐熱性試験を開始してから24時間後には初期と比べて同じ電圧における輝度と効率とが大幅に低下した。すなわち、同じ輝度を得るために必要な電圧は高くなった。
図6に示すように、実施例1による有機発光素子においては85℃のおける耐熱性試験を開始してから313時間経過後であっても輝度の変化はわずかであった。すなわち、同じ輝度を得るのに必要な印加電圧の増加率は、比較例1の場合よりも小さかった。効率も低下したが、比較例1による有機発光素子の場合に比べると低下の割合は小さい。
図7に示すように実施例2による有機発光素子においては85℃における耐熱性試験を開始してから313時間経過後であっても、輝度の変化は非常にわずかであった。すなわち、実施例2による有機発光素子では、電圧の上昇、効率の低下もほとんどなく、初期の特性を維持することがわかる。
Bphen、DPBおよびDPBiのそれぞれの電荷制御層材料(または電子輸送層材料)として用いた場合の初期測定(電流密度、輝度および効率)にそれほど大きな差はない。これに対して、耐熱性試験を行った場合には、熱による特性の変化の度合いは、Bphenを用いた比較例の有機発光素子が最も大きく、DPBiを用いた有機発光素子が最も小さいことがわかる。
なお、比較例2のAlq3に用いたものは耐熱性の点では左程の差がないが、以下の電気光学特性において差がみられた。
【0155】
<その他の物性のテスト>
図2から4までに実施例1および実施例2による有機発光素子の初期特性を示す。併せて、比較例1および2による有機発光素子の初期特性も示す。図2は、有機発光素子の電流密度の印加電圧依存性を示す図である。図3は、有機発光素子の輝度の印加電圧依存性を示す図である。図4は、有機発光素子の効率の印加電圧依存性を示す図である。
図2に示すように実施例1および2による有機発光素子の電流密度は、比較例1による有機発光素子と同様に印加電圧2.5V付近から急激に立ち上がっていることがわかる。実施例1および実施例2による有機発光素子と比較例1による有機発光素子の特性とに大きな違いはない。
図3に示すように、実施例1および2による有機発光素子の輝度は、比較例1による有機発光素子と同様に、印加電圧2.5V付近から急激に立ち上がっていることがわかる。実施例1および実施例2による有機発光素子と比較例1による有機発光素子の特性上、さほどの違いはない。
図4に示すように、実施例1および2による有機発光素子の効率は、印加電圧2.5V付近から急激に大きくなることがわかる。印加電圧が3Vから4Vまでの間においては3.5から4の高い効率を維持している。印加電圧が3Vから4Vまでの間においては、比較例1による有機発光素子の効率が最も高く、実施例2による有機発光素子、実施例1による有機発光素子の順となっている。
【0156】
表91は、図2から図4までから求められた有機発光素子の電気光学特性をまとめた表である。
【0157】
【表91】
【0158】
表91に示すように、実施例1および実施例2による有機発光素子の発光開始電圧(輝度が1cd/m2における電圧として規定した。)は、比較例1と同様に2.7Vである。輝度が300cd/m2となる電流密度は、比較例1による有機発光素子においては7.6mA/cm2であり、その時の電圧は3.4Vである。電流効率は3.9cd/Aである。実施例1による有機発光素子においては輝度が300cd/m2となる電流密度は8.2mA/cm2であり、その時の電圧は3.8Vである。電流効率は、3.7cd/A、電力効率は3.0lm/Wである。実施例2による有機発光素子においては輝度が300cd/m2となる電流密度は7.7mA/cm2であり、その時の電圧は3.5Vである。電流効率は3.9cd/A、電力効率は3.5lm/Wである。
これらの値に関しても実施例1および2と比較例1との差はほとんどない。一方、実施例1および2と比較例2を対比すると、比較例2のものは電圧が高く電流密度も著しく高いのに電流効率、電力効率は実施例1および2の1/2程度と低いものであった。
【0159】
以上、説明したように、電荷制御材料として、代表的な1核型のバソフェナントロリン(Bphen)を用いた場合と本発明の多核型フェナントロリン誘導体に当る1,4−ジ(1,10−フェナントロリン−2−イル)ベンゼン(DPB)や4,4′−ジ(1,10−フェナントロリン−2−イル)ビフェニル(DPBi)を用いた場合とでは、初期特性にはほとんど差がでないが、耐熱性についてはDPB又はDPBiを用いた場合の方がBphenを用いた場合よりも優れていることがわかる。
また、電子輸送層として、代表的なAlq3を用いた場合と本発明のDPBやDPBiを用いた場合とでは耐熱性では左程の差がないが電気光学的特性において、本発明のものが著しい改善効果を示していることが判る。
【0160】
実施例3、4、比較例3
実施例1における電荷制御層について、実施例3では、前記1,4−ジ(1,10−フェナントロリン−2−イル)ベンゼン(DPB)とセシウム(Cs)を共蒸着させて作り、実施例4では、前記4,4′−ジ(1,10−フェナントロリン−2−イル)ビフェニル(DPBi)とセシウム(Cs)を共蒸着させて作り、比較例3では前記バソフェナントロリン(BPhen)とセシウム(Cs)を共蒸着して作った以外は、実施例1を繰り返した。
セシウム(Cs)の量は、DPB:Cs、DPBi:Cs、BPhen:Csがいずれも3:1となるように調整した。
なお、いずれも陰極は厚さ100nmのAl層を用いた。
【0161】
共蒸着法は、真空容器内で複数の蒸着材料を個々に加熱蒸発させ、基板上に成膜させる方法である。この方法を用いると蒸着源ごとに蒸着速度を決定することができ、組成制御が容易に行える。
【0162】
実施例3および4の有機発光素子は、比較例3の有機発光素子に較べて耐熱性に優れていることは実施例1および2と比較例1の関係と同様であった。また実施例3および4と比較例3の有機発光素子の電気光学特性を表92に示す。
【0163】
【表92】
【0164】
表91と表92を比較すると、電荷制御層にCsをドーピングした場合でも、Csをドーピングしていないものとほぼ同様の電気光学特性を得ることができる。
より詳細には、発光開始電圧(輝度は1cd/m2になる電圧)は2.6から2.7Vであり、表91の値とほぼ同じであった。300cd/m2における電流密度は、実施例3および実施例4による有機発光素子の方が実施例1および実施例2による有機発光素子よりも高い電流密度を有する。特に実施例4による有機発光素子における電流密度が高いことがわかる。
【0165】
一方、300cd/m2を得ることができる印加電圧は、実施例3および実施例4による有機発光素子の方が実施例1および実施例2による有機発光素子よりも低い値を示す。電流効率は実施例3および実施例4による有機発光素子の方が、実施例1および実施例2による有機発光素子よりも低い。これによりアルカリ金属のセシウム(Cs)をドーピングした電荷制御層を用いることにより、有機発光素子の低電圧動作が可能になることがわかった。
【0166】
実施例5
図8に示す有機発光素子は、電荷制御層15とは別にAlq3を用いて電子輸送層を形成した場合を例示している。この場合には、図1に示す構造に加えて、例えば、ホールブロック層として機能する厚さ10nmの電荷制御層15と陰極21との間に、厚さ40nmの電子輸送層25が形成された構造を有している。電荷制御層15としては、例えば2核型や3核型のフェナントロリン誘導体を用いることができる。
上記構造を用いると、電子輸送層と電荷制御層(ホールブロック層)とを別個に設けるので、所望の特性を得るための素子構造を設計する際の自由度が増すという利点がある。

実施例6
パターニング済みの透明導電膜(ITO)が200nm成膜されたガラス基板を界面活性剤にて超音波洗浄し、純水にてリンスを行った。次にイソプロピルアルコールの超音波洗浄で脱脂洗浄し、紫外線を照射してUVオゾン洗浄を行った。この基板を真空チャンバーに設置し、1×10−6Torrまで真空排気した。
真空チャンバー内には、有機材料を充填したタンタル性蒸着ボートと所定のパターンで成膜するための金属製薄板マスクを設置しておき、蒸着ボートに電流を流すことにより加熱し、有機材料を蒸発されて成膜をおこなった。最初に正孔注入層として下記式

で示される4,4′,4″−トリス〔N,N−(2−ナフチル)フェニルアミノ〕トリフェニルアミン(以下、2−TNATA)を水晶振動子でモニターしながら60nm成膜した。次に正孔輸送層としてα−NPDを12nm成膜し、赤色発光層としてAlq3と下記式
【化61】
で示される蛍光性色素材料DCJTBを共蒸着し16.5nm成膜した。このときのDCJTBはAlq3に対して3.5wt%の濃度とした。最後に電荷制御層としてDPBを40nm成膜した。
陰極を成膜するため、金属成膜用チャンバーに基板を移動した。移動の際は有機材料の劣化を防止するため、大気に触れることなく真空一貫で行った。金属成膜用チャンバーには陰極用材料と陰極用パターンの金属製薄板マスクを設置した。有機材料と同様に1×10−6Torrの真空度において成膜をおこなった。金属チャンバーでは、セシウム(Cs)を0.1nm成膜し、アルミニウム(Al)を100nm成膜し、陰極とした。
有機発光素子デバイスは水分の影響を受けやすいため、成膜したガラス基板を不活性ガスのN2を満たしたグローブボックスに移動し、UV硬化型接着材を塗布した別のガラス板とUV硬化接着し、パッケージした。
ガラス板で貼り合せた有機発光素子デバイスの陽極、陰極にDC電源を接続し電流を印加した。デバイス正面方向の輝度をミノルタカメラ製CS−100にて測定し、そのときの電流値、電圧値から初期効率を計算した。

比較例4
正孔注入層に2−TNATAを60nm成膜、正孔輸送層としてα−NPDを12nm成膜し、赤色発光層としてAlq3と蛍光性色素材料DCJTBを共蒸着し16.5nm成膜し(このときDCJTBはAlq3に対して3.5wt%の濃度とした。)、最後に電子輸送層としてAlq3を40nm成膜した以外は実施例1を繰り返した。
【0169】
実施例6と比較例4の電気光学特性を表93に示す。
【表93】
実施例6は比較例4と比べて同じ30cd/m2の輝度を得るのに、低電圧および低電流である。また電流効率も実施例6の方が高く、高効率である。
発光スペクトルをみると、図10に示す比較例4のスペクトルはDCJTBの発光に加えて、電子輸送層のAlq3に由来する520nm付近の発光が見られるのに対し、図9に示す実施例6ではDCJTBの発光のみ見られる。また、それぞれの色度にも差が確認された。DPBを用いた素子の色度は、Alq3を用いた素子の色度よりも純粋な赤色の色度に近い値を示した。この色度の差はAlq3に由来する520nmの発光の有無を示唆すると考えられる。このことから、比較例4では、発光領域が発光層および電子輸送層内まで広がっていることが考察され、純粋な赤色の色度が得られていない。それに対し、実施例6に用いた電荷制御材料では、発光領域が発光層内に限定されることで、目的の色度が得られている。これはDPBが電子輸送性に加えてホールブロック性をもつためと考察される。
【0170】
【発明の効果】
以上に説明したように、有機発光素子において電子輸送層又はホールブロック層として機能する電荷制御層の材料として多核型フェナントロリン誘導体を用いると、有機発光素子の耐熱性を向上させることができ、有機発光素子の信頼性が向上する。さらに、多核型フェナントロリン誘導体を用いた電荷制御層にアルカリ金属をドーピングすることにより、低い印加電圧でも発光させることができる。
また、電子輸送材料として代表的なAlq3と比較すると、耐熱性の点では左程の差はないが電流効率および電力効率の点で著しい改善が認められた。

That is, the voltage required to obtain the same luminance was increased.
As shown in FIG. 6, in the organic light emitting device according to Example 1, a change in luminance was slight even after 313 hours had passed since the start of the heat resistance test at 85 ° C. That is, the rate of increase of the applied voltage required to obtain the same luminance was smaller than that of Comparative Example 1. Although the efficiency also decreased, the rate of decrease was smaller than that of the organic light emitting device according to Comparative Example 1.
As shown in FIG. 7, in the organic light emitting device according to Example 2, the change in luminance was very small even after 313 hours had passed since the start of the heat resistance test at 85 ° C. That is, it can be seen that the organic light emitting device according to Example 2 hardly increases the voltage and decreases the efficiency, and maintains the initial characteristics.

Although the initial characteristics are almost the same as those using 2-yl) benzene (DPB) or 4,4'-di (1,10-phenanthroline-2-yl) biphenyl (DPBi), the heat resistance is poor. It can be seen that the case where DPB or DPBi is used is superior to the case where Bphen is used.
In addition, as an electron transport layer, a typical Alq 3 Although there is no difference in the heat resistance between the case of using the present invention and the case of using the DPB or DPBi of the present invention, it can be seen that the present invention shows a remarkable improvement in electro-optical characteristics.
[0160]
Examples 3, 4 and Comparative Example 3
In Example 3, the charge control layer in Example 1 was prepared by co-evaporating the 1,4-di (1,10-phenanthroline-2-yl) benzene (DPB) and cesium (Cs). Then, the above 4,4'-di (1,10-phenanthroline-2-yl) biphenyl (DPBi) and cesium (Cs) are co-evaporated, and in Comparative Example 3, the bathophenanthroline (BPhen) and cesium (Cs) are produced. Example 1 was repeated except that the above was made by co-evaporation.
The amount of cesium (Cs) was adjusted so that DPB: Cs, DPBi: Cs, and BPhen: Cs were all 3: 1.
In each case, an Al layer having a thickness of 100 nm was used as a cathode.

More specifically, the light emission start voltage (the luminance is 1 cd / m 2 Is 2.6 to 2.7 V, which is almost the same as the value in Table 91. 300 cd / m 2 , The organic light emitting devices according to Examples 3 and 4 have a higher current density than the organic light emitting devices according to Examples 1 and 2. In particular, the current density of the organic light emitting device according to Example 4 is high.
[0165]
On the other hand, 300 cd / m 2 Is lower in the organic light emitting devices according to Examples 3 and 4 than in the organic light emitting devices according to Examples 1 and 2. The current efficiency of the organic light emitting devices according to Examples 3 and 4 is lower than that of the organic light emitting devices according to Examples 1 and 2. Thus, it was found that the use of the charge control layer doped with the alkali metal cesium (Cs) enabled low-voltage operation of the organic light-emitting device.

This substrate was placed in a vacuum chamber and 1 × 10 -6 Evacuated to Torr.
In the vacuum chamber, a tantalum evaporation boat filled with an organic material and a thin metal mask for forming a film in a predetermined pattern are installed, and heating is performed by passing a current through the evaporation boat to evaporate the organic material.

The substrate was moved to a metal deposition chamber to form a cathode. In order to prevent the organic material from deteriorating during the transfer, the transfer was performed in a vacuum without contacting the atmosphere. A metal thin film mask having a cathode material and a cathode pattern was provided in the metal film forming chamber. 1 × 10 as well as organic materials -6 The film was formed at a degree of vacuum of Torr. In the metal chamber, cesium (Cs) was deposited to a thickness of 0.1 nm, and aluminum (Al) was deposited to a thickness of 100 nm to form a cathode.
Since the organic light emitting device is easily affected by moisture, the formed glass substrate is replaced with an inert gas N2. 2 Then, it was moved to a glove box filled with and cured by UV curing with another glass plate coated with a UV curing adhesive, and packaged.
A DC power supply was connected to the anode and the cathode of the organic light emitting device bonded together with a glass plate, and a current was applied. The luminance in the front direction of the device was measured with a CS-100 manufactured by Minolta Camera, and the initial efficiency was calculated from the current value and voltage value at that time.

Comparative Example 4
A 2-TNATA film is formed to a thickness of 60 nm on the hole injection layer, an α-NPD is formed to a thickness of 12 nm as the hole transport layer, and Alq is formed as a red light emitting layer. 3 And a fluorescent dye material DCJTB are co-evaporated to form a film of 16.5 nm (in this case, DCJTB is Alq 3 With respect to the concentration of 3.5 wt%. ), And finally, Alq as the electron transport layer 3 Example 1 was repeated except that was formed to a thickness of 40 nm.
[0169]
Table 93 shows the electro-optical characteristics of Example 6 and Comparative Example 4.
[Table 93]
Example 6 has the same 30 cd / m as that of Comparative Example 4. 2 Low voltage and low current in order to obtain a high brightness. In addition, the current efficiency of the sixth embodiment is higher and higher.
Looking at the emission spectrum, the spectrum of Comparative Example 4 shown in FIG. 10 shows that the electron transport layer Alq 3 In contrast to this, in the sixth embodiment shown in FIG. 9, only the emission of DCJTB is observed, while the emission around 520 nm derived from is observed. Also, a difference was confirmed in each chromaticity. The chromaticity of a device using DPB is Alq 3 The value was closer to the chromaticity of pure red than the chromaticity of the device using. This difference in chromaticity is Alq 3 It is considered to indicate the presence or absence of 520 nm light emission derived from. From this, in Comparative Example 4, it was considered that the light emitting region was extended to the inside of the light emitting layer and the electron transport layer, and pure red chromaticity was not obtained. On the other hand, in the charge control material used in Example 6, the target chromaticity was obtained by limiting the light emitting region within the light emitting layer. This is considered because DPB has a hole blocking property in addition to the electron transporting property.
