Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel organic electroluminescent compounds and an organic electroluminescent device comprising the same.
  • An electroluminescent (EL) device is a self-light-emitting device with the advantage of providing 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 material for forming a light-emitting layer [ see Appl. Phys. Lett. 51, 913, 1987].
  • the organic EL device emits a light by the injection of a charge into an organic film formed between an electron injection electrode (cathode) and a hole injection electrode (anode) and by the extinction of an electron-hole pair.
  • the organic EL device has the following advantages: it can be formed onto a flexible transparent substrate, such as plastic; can be driven at a lower voltage, for example, 10 V or less, over a plasma display panel or an inorganic EL display; has relatively low power consumption; and provides good color. Further, the organic EL device provides tricolor light-emission, i.e., green, blue or red light-emission, and thus there is interest from many people as a next generation color display device.
  • the most important factor determining properties, such as luminescent efficiency, lifespan, etc., in an organic EL device is the light-emitting material.
  • the light-emitting material is required to have the following features: high luminescent quantum yield in a solid state, high movement degree of an electron and a hole, non-breakdown in vacuum deposition, formability of a uniform thin film, and stability.
  • the organic EL device is generally composed of a cathode/a hole injection layer (HIL)/a hole transport layer (HTL)/a light-emitting layer (EML)/an electron transport layer (ETL)/an electron injection layer (EIL)/an anode, and green, blue or red light-emitting of the organic EL device can be embodied depending on how to form a light-emitting layer.
  • HIL hole injection layer
  • HTL hole transport layer
  • EML electron transport layer
  • EIL electron injection layer
  • the light-emitting material is classified into a host material and a dopant material in the functional aspect.
  • the light-emitting layer wherein a dopant is doped onto a host, was known.
  • an urgent task is the development of an organic EL device having high efficacy and a long operating lifespan.
  • the development of highly excellent light-emitting material over conventional light-emitting materials is urgent considering EL properties required in medium- and large-sized OLED panels.
  • a blue light-emitting material system by using diphenylvinyl-biphenyl (DPVBi) and a distyryl blue light-emitting material system (Idemitsu Kosan), and blue light-emitting material systems of dinaphthylanthracene and tetra(t-butyl)perylene (Eastman Kodak) were known.
  • DPVBi diphenylvinyl-biphenyl
  • Idemitsu Kosan distyryl blue light-emitting material system
  • Eastman Kodak blue light-emitting material systems of dinaphthylanthracene and tetra(t-butyl)perylene
  • the distyryl blue light-emitting material system of Idemitsu Kosan is effective, since it provides a device having 6 lm/W of power efficiency and 30000 or more hours of operating lifespan.
  • the system shows the reduction of color purity with the passage of driving time of a device, when it is applied to a full color display, it shows only several thousand hours of lifespan.
  • the conventional blue light-emitting materials do not compose a light-emitting layer by using a host-dopant system, and compose a light-emitting layer by using only host compounds or dopant compounds. Thus, it is difficult to commercially use them in terms of color purity and efficiency. Further, credible data for a long lifespan is insufficient.
  • blue light-emission shows better luminescent efficiency, but does not satisfy pure blue color, and thus cannot be applied to high quality displays. Further, it has problems in color purity, efficiency and thermal stability. Thus, it is urgent to develop blue light-emitting materials.
  • Korean Patent Application Laying-Open No. 10-2011-0027033 discloses an organic EL device comprising anthracene derivatives and amine derivatives
  • Korean Patent Application Laying-Open No. 10-2011-0115887 discloses an organic EL device comprising amine-based compounds.
  • organic EL devices comprising the compounds disclosed in the publications as a dopant material are not satisfactory in luminescent efficiency and color purity.
  • the objective of the present invention is to provide an organic electroluminescent compound, in particular dopant materials, having high luminescent efficiency and a long lifespan and showing blue light-emission having high color purity; and an organic electroluminescent device having high efficiency and a long operating lifespan, comprising the organic electroluminescent compound.

Description

NOVEL ORGANIC ELECTROLUMINESCENT COMPOUNDS AND ORGANIC ELECTROLUMINESCENT DEVICE COMPRISING THE SAME
The present invention relates to novel organic electroluminescent compounds and an organic electroluminescent device comprising the same.
An electroluminescent (EL) device is a self-light-emitting device with the advantage of providing 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 material for forming a light-emitting layer [see Appl. Phys. Lett. 51, 913, 1987].
The organic EL device emits a light by the injection of a charge into an organic film formed between an electron injection electrode (cathode) and a hole injection electrode (anode) and by the extinction of an electron-hole pair. The organic EL device has the following advantages: it can be formed onto a flexible transparent substrate, such as plastic; can be driven at a lower voltage, for example, 10 V or less, over a plasma display panel or an inorganic EL display; has relatively low power consumption; and provides good color. Further, the organic EL device provides tricolor light-emission, i.e., green, blue or red light-emission, and thus there is interest from many people as a next generation color display device.
The most important factor determining properties, such as luminescent efficiency, lifespan, etc., in an organic EL device is the light-emitting material. The light-emitting material is required to have the following features: high luminescent quantum yield in a solid state, high movement degree of an electron and a hole, non-breakdown in vacuum deposition, formability of a uniform thin film, and stability. The organic EL device is generally composed of a cathode/a hole injection layer (HIL)/a hole transport layer (HTL)/a light-emitting layer (EML)/an electron transport layer (ETL)/an electron injection layer (EIL)/an anode, and green, blue or red light-emitting of the organic EL device can be embodied depending on how to form a light-emitting layer.
The light-emitting material is classified into a host material and a dopant material in the functional aspect. Generally, as a structure of the device having the most excellent EL properties, the light-emitting layer, wherein a dopant is doped onto a host, was known. Recently, an urgent task is the development of an organic EL device having high efficacy and a long operating lifespan. In particular, the development of highly excellent light-emitting material over conventional light-emitting materials is urgent considering EL properties required in medium- and large-sized OLED panels.
As conventional blue light-emitting materials, a blue light-emitting material system by using diphenylvinyl-biphenyl (DPVBi) and a distyryl blue light-emitting material system (Idemitsu Kosan), and blue light-emitting material systems of dinaphthylanthracene and tetra(t-butyl)perylene (Eastman Kodak) were known.
Among them, the distyryl blue light-emitting material system of Idemitsu Kosan is effective, since it provides a device having 6 lm/W of power efficiency and 30000 or more hours of operating lifespan. However, since the system shows the reduction of color purity with the passage of driving time of a device, when it is applied to a full color display, it shows only several thousand hours of lifespan.
Further, the conventional blue light-emitting materials do not compose a light-emitting layer by using a host-dopant system, and compose a light-emitting layer by using only host compounds or dopant compounds. Thus, it is difficult to commercially use them in terms of color purity and efficiency. Further, credible data for a long lifespan is insufficient.
In the case that a light-emitting wavelength slightly moves toward a long wavelength, blue light-emission shows better luminescent efficiency, but does not satisfy pure blue color, and thus cannot be applied to high quality displays. Further, it has problems in color purity, efficiency and thermal stability. Thus, it is urgent to develop blue light-emitting materials.
Korean Patent Application Laying-Open No. 10-2011-0027033 discloses an organic EL device comprising anthracene derivatives and amine derivatives, and Korean Patent Application Laying-Open No. 10-2011-0115887 discloses an organic EL device comprising amine-based compounds. However, organic EL devices comprising the compounds disclosed in the publications as a dopant material are not satisfactory in luminescent efficiency and color purity.
The objective of the present invention is to provide an organic electroluminescent compound, in particular dopant materials, having high luminescent efficiency and a long lifespan and showing blue light-emission having high color purity; and an organic electroluminescent device having high efficiency and a long operating lifespan, comprising the organic electroluminescent compound.
The present inventors found that the above objective can be achieved by a compound represented by the following formula 1:

Device Example 1: Production of an OLED device by using
the organic electroluminescent compound according to the present invention
An OLED device was produced using the organic electroluminescent compound according to the present invention. A transparent electrode indium tin oxide (ITO) thin film (15 Ω/sq) on a glass substrate for an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) device (Samsung Corning, Republic of Korea) was subjected to an ultrasonic washing with trichloroethylene, acetone, ethanol, and distilled water, sequentially, and then was stored in isopropanol. Then, the ITO substrate was mounted on a substrate holder of a vacuum vapor depositing apparatus. 4,4’,4”-tris(N,N-(2-naphthyl)-phenylamino)triphenylamine was introduced into a cell of the vacuum vapor depositing apparatus, and then the pressure in the chamber of the apparatus was controlled to 10-6 torr. Thereafter, an electric current was applied to the cell to evaporate the introduced material, thereby forming a hole injection layer having a thickness of 60 nm on the ITO substrate. Then, N,N’-bis(α-naphthyl)-N,N’-diphenyl-4,4’-diamine was introduced into another cell of the vacuum vapor depositing apparatus, and was evaporated by applying 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-70 as a host was introduced into one cell of the vacuum vapor depositing apparatus, and compound D-15 of the present invention as a dopant was introduced into another cell. The two materials were evaporated at different rates and deposited in a doping amount of 3 wt% of the dopant, based on the total weight of the host and dopant, to form a light-emitting layer having a thickness of 30 nm on the hole transport layer. Then, tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum(III) was introduced into one cell to form an electron transport layer having a thickness of 30 nm on the light-emitting layer. Then, 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 deposited by another vacuum vapor deposition apparatus on the electron injection layer. Thus, an OLED device was produced. All the materials used for producing the OLED device were purified by vacuum sublimation at 10-6 torr prior to use.
