Comparative Example 1

(79) This comparative example uses ITO (indium tin oxide) as the anode; NPB as the hole injection layer; TCTA as the hole transport layer; the luminescent layer uses CBP as the host material and DSA-Ph as the luminescent dye, and the mass percentage of the luminescent dye doped in the luminescent layer is 5 wt %; Bphen as the electron transport layer; LiF (5 nm)/Al as the cathode. The structures are as follows:

(80) ITO/NPB (40 nm)/TCTA (10 nm)/CBP: 5 wt % DSA-Ph (30 nm)/Bphen (40 nm)/LiF (5 nm)/Al

(81) ##STR00034##

Comparative Example 2

(82) The structure of this Comparative Example differs from that of Comparative Example 1 only in that the luminescent dye used in the luminescent layer is 2CzPN:

(83) ITO/NPB (40 nm)/TCTA (10 nm)/CBP: 5 wt % 2CzPN (30 nm)/Bphen (40 nm)/LiF (5 nm)/Al

(84) ##STR00035##

Embodiment 1

(85) The structure of this embodiment differs from that of Comparative Example 1 only in that the luminescent dye used in the luminescent layer is compound 1-1 of the present invention:

(86) ##STR00036##
ITO/NPB (40 nm)/TCTA (10 nm)/CBP: 5 wt % compound 1-1 (30 nm)/Bphen (40 nm)/LiF (5 nm)/Al

(88) According to the TADF material in Embodiment 1, due to the introduction of the heavy atoms, reverse intersystem crossing and intersystem crossing of the TADF material are increased through the heavy atom effect, so that the lifetime of triplet excitons is reduced, and ultimately the lifetime of the device is increased.

Embodiments 2-5

(89) The structures of Embodiments 2-5 differ from that of Embodiment 1 only in that the doping concentration of the luminescent dye compound 1-1 in the luminescent layer is different: ITO/NPB (40 nm)/TCTA (10 nm)/CBP: 0.5-10 wt % compound 1-1 (30 nm)/Bphen (40 nm)/LiF (5 nm)/Al

(92) From the above table, it can be seen that the increase of the concentration of the luminescent dye causes the current efficiency of the device to increase first and then decrease. When the doping concentration is 5 wt %, the current efficiency of the device is the highest, and the voltage of the device basically does not change, but the lifetime of the device is increased as the doping concentration of the luminescent dye increases.

Embodiment 6

(93) The OLED structure in this embodiment differs from Embodiment 1 only in that the luminescent layer is doped with a different compound having the structure of Formula I or Formula II as the luminescent dye:

(94) ITO/NPB (40 nm)/TCTA (10 nm)/CBP: 5 wt % (compound having the structure of Formula I or Formula II) (30 nm)/Bphen (40 nm)/LiF (5 nm)/Al

(96) From the above table, it can be seen that the lifetime of the thermally activated delayed fluorescence material containing the heavy atoms of bromine or iodine, as well as the lifetime of the device protected by the invention are both increased, the reason is that reverse intersystem crossing and intersystem crossing of the TADF material are increased through the heavy atom effect, so that the lifetime of triplet excitons is reduced, and ultimately the lifetime of the device is increased.

Embodiments 7-9

(97) The difference between the OLED structure in the embodiments and Embodiment 1 lies in that the host material in the luminescent layer is compound 2-2, and the luminescent dye is Ir(ppy).sub.3. The doping concentration (weight percentage in the luminescent layer) of Ir(ppy).sub.3 is 1-10 wt %. ITO/NPB (40 nm)/TCTA (10 nm)/compound 2-2: 1-10 wt % Ir(ppy).sub.3 (30 nm)/Bphen (40 nm)/LiF (5 nm)/Al

Comparative Example 3

(98) The difference between the structure of this Comparative Example and Embodiments 7-9 is only that the host material used for the luminescent layer is CBP:

(99) ITO/NPB (40 nm)/TCTA (10 nm)/CBP: 5 wt % Ir(ppy).sub.3 (30 nm)/Bphen (40 nm)/LiF (5 nm)/A1

Comparative Example 4

(100) The difference between the structure of this Comparative Example and Embodiments 7-9 is only that the host material used for the luminescent layer is CC2TA:

(103) From the above table, it can be seen by comparing Embodiment 7, Embodiment 8 and Embodiment 9 with different doping concentrations that the electrical property of the device increases first and then decreases with an increase in the doping concentration of the luminescent dye, and is optimize at the doping concentration of 5 wt %, but the lifetime of the device increases as the doping concentration of the dye increases. In addition, the lifetime of the device protected by the present invention with the thermally activated delayed fluorescence material containing the heavy bromine atoms serving as the host is longer than that of a conventional device with CBP as a host (Comparative Example 3), and comparing with a device with a thermally activated sensitized fluorescent material of the same structure but without heavy atoms serving as a host (Comparative Example 4), the electrical property does not change much, but the lifetime of the device of Example 7 is longer than that of the device of Comparative Example 4, because the reverse intersystem crossing coefficient of the TADF material is increased through the heavy atom effect, so that the lifetime of triplet excitons is reduced, and ultimately the lifetime of the device is increased.
