Description
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
[0022] The above and other aspects, features, and advantages of certain exemplary embodiments will be more apparent from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the FIGURE, which is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a light-emitting device according to one or more embodiments.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout the specification. In this regard, the present embodiments may have different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the descriptions set forth herein. Accordingly, the embodiments are merely described below, by referring to the figures, to explain aspects. As used herein, the term “and/or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. Expressions such as “at least one of,” when preceding a list of elements, modify the entire list of elements and do not modify the individual elements of the list.
[0024] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing one or more exemplary embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. The term “or” means “and/or.” It will be further understood that the terms “comprises” and/or “comprising,” or “includes” and/or “including” when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, regions, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, regions, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.
[0025] It will be understood that, although the terms first, second, third etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, components, regions, layers, and/or sections, these elements, components, regions, layers, and/or sections should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer, or section from another element, component, region, layer, or section. Thus, a first element, component, region, layer, or section discussed below could be termed a second element, component, region, layer, or section without departing from the teachings of the present embodiments.
[0026] Exemplary embodiments are described herein with reference to cross section illustrations that are schematic illustrations of idealized embodiments. As such, variations from the shapes of the illustrations as a result, for example, of manufacturing techniques and/or tolerances, are to be expected. Thus, embodiments described herein should not be construed as limited to the particular shapes of regions as illustrated herein but are to include deviations in shapes that result, for example, from manufacturing. For example, a region illustrated or described as flat may, typically, have rough and/or nonlinear features. Moreover, sharp angles that are illustrated may be rounded. Thus, the regions illustrated in the figures are schematic in nature and their shapes are not intended to illustrate the precise shape of a region and are not intended to limit the scope of the present claims.
[0027] It will be understood that when an element is referred to as being “on” another element, it can be directly in contact with the other element or intervening elements may be present therebetween. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directly on” another element, there are no intervening elements present.
[0028] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this general inventive concept belongs. It will be further understood that terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and the present disclosure, and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein.
[0029] “About” or “approximately” as used herein is inclusive of the stated value and means within an acceptable range of deviation for the particular value as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art, considering the measurement in question and the error associated with measurement of the particular quantity (i.e., the limitations of the measurement system). For example, “about” can mean within one or more standard deviations, or within ±30%, 20%, 10%, 5% of the stated value.
[0030] Hereinafter, a work function or a highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy level is expressed as an absolute value from a vacuum level. In addition, when the work function or the HOMO energy level is referred to be “deep,” “high” or “large,” the work function or the HOMO energy level has a large absolute value based on “0 electron Volts (eV)” of the vacuum level, while when the work function or the HOMO energy level is referred to be “shallow,” “low,” or “small,” the work function or HOMO energy level has a small absolute value based on “0 eV” of the vacuum level.
[0031] An aspect provides a composition including a first compound and a second compound.
[0032] The first compound is an organometallic compound including platinum (Pt) and a tetradentate ligand bound thereto, and the second compound is an organometallic compound including iridium (Ir).
[0033] The first compound may include one Pt, and may not include any other metal than Pt.
[0034] The first compound may not include any other ligand than the tetradentate ligand bound to Pt.
[0035] The tetradentate ligand bound to Pt in the first compound may have excellent electrical properties and structural rigidity. In addition, the first compound including Pt and the tetradentate ligand bound thereto may have a planar structure, and in this regard, may have a relatively small dipole moment. Accordingly, a layer or a light-emitting device (e.g., an organic light-emitting device) employing the composition including the first compound may have excellent luminescence efficiency and a long lifespan.
[0036] The second compound may include one Ir, and may not include any other metal than Ir.
[0037] Each of the first compound and the second compound may be electrically neutral.
[0038] μ(Pt) is about 0.5 debye to about 5.0 debye, and μ(Pt) is less than μ(Ir). Here, μ(Pt) is a dipole moment of the first compound, and μ(Ir) is a dipole moment of the second compound.
[0039] As used herein, the terms “dipole moment of the first compound” and “dipole moment of the second compound” refer to “total permanent dipole moment in the molecule of the first compound” and “total permanent dipole moment in the molecule of the second compound”, respectively.
[0040] Each of μ(Pt) and μ(Ir) may be calculated based on density functional theory (DFT). Any various programs may be used for the quantum mechanical calculation based on the DFT, and for example, a Gaussian 16 program may be used. For example, each of μ(Pt) and μ(Ir) may be calculated using a density functional theory (DFT) method of a Gaussian program that is structurally optimized at a level of B3LYP/LanL2DZ for the metal (for example, platinum, iridium etc.) included in each of the first compound and the second compound and at a level of B3LYP/6-31G(D,P) for the organic ligand (for example, the tetradentate ligand, the bidentate ligand etc.) included in each of the first compound and the second compound.
[0041] For example, each of μ(Pt) and μ(Ir) may be calculated according to methods described in Evaluation Example 1.
[0042] Without wishing to be bound to theory, the composition including the first compound and the second compound in which μ(Pt) is about 0.5 debye to about 5.0 debye and μ(Pt) is less than μ(Ir) may have the following advantages:
[0043] 1) in the composition, aggregation between molecules of the first compound, aggregation between molecules of the second compound, and/or aggregation between molecules of the first compound and molecules of the second compound are substantially minimized, so that the contents (e.g., weights) of the first compound and the second compound in the composition may be relatively increased without concern about aggregation between the molecules. Accordingly, a layer and a light-emitting device (e.g., an organic light-emitting device) employing the composition may have excellent luminescence efficiency and long lifespan characteristics; and
[0044] 2) when an emission layer of a light-emitting device includes the composition, hole flux in the light-emitting layer is increased by the composition, so that an exciton recombination zone in the emission layer may be spaced apart from each of the interface between the emission layer and a hole transport region and the interface between the emission layer and an electron transport region, thereby improving lifespan characteristics.
[0045] In one or more embodiments, μ(Pt) may be about 1.5 debye to about 5.0 debye.
[0046] In one or more embodiments, μ(Pt) may be about 0.5 debye to about 3.0 debye, about 1.0 debye to about 3.0 debye, about 1.5 debye to about 3.0 debye, about 1.7 debye to about 3.0 debye, or about 1.7 debye to about 2.7 debye.
[0047] In one or more embodiments, μ(Pt) may be about 2.0 debye to about 5.0 debye, about 3.0 debye to about 5.0 debye, or about 4.0 debye to about 5.0 debye.
[0048] In one or more embodiments, μ(Ir) may be about 4.0 debye to about 9.0 debye, about 4.5 debye to about 7.5 debye, or about 5.0 debye to about 7.0 debye.
[0049] In one or more embodiments, μ(Ir)-μ(Pt) may be about 0.3 debye to about 4.0 debye.
[0050] In one or more embodiments, μ(Ir)-μ(Pt) may be about 2.0 debye to about 4.0 debye, or about 2.0 debye to about 3.0 debye.
[0051] In one or more embodiments, μ(Ir)-μ(Pt) may be about 0.3 debye to about 1.0 debye.
[0052] The first compound may emit a first light having a first spectrum, and λP(Pt) is an emission peak wavelength (nm) of the first spectrum.
[0053] The second compound may emit a second light having a second spectrum, and λP(Ir) is an emission peak wavelength (nm) of the second spectrum.
[0054] λP(Pt) may be evaluated from a photoluminescence spectrum measured for a first film, and λP(Ir) may be evaluated from a photoluminescence spectrum measured for a second film.
[0055] The term “first film” as used herein refers to a film including the first compound, and the term “second film” as used herein refers to a film including the second compound. The first film and the second film may be manufactured using any various methods, such as a vacuum deposition method, a coating and heating method, and the like. The first film and the second film may each independently further include a compound, for example, a host described herein, other than or in addition to the first compound and the second compound. As used herein, the term “emission peak wavelength” (also referred to as “peak emission wavelength” or “emission peak wavelength maximum”) refers to a wavelength in the emission peak at which the emission intensity is maximum.
[0056] For example, the evaluation method of λP(Pt) and λP(Ir) may be as described in Evaluation Example 2.
[0057] The absolute value of a difference between λP(Pt) and λP(Ir) may be 0 nanometers (nm) to about 30 nm, 0 nm to about 20 nm, or 0 nm to about 10 nm.
[0058] In one or more embodiments, λP(Pt) may be substantially the same as λP(Ir), or λP(Pt) may be equal to λP(Ir).
[0059] In one or more embodiments, λP(Pt) may be less than λP(Ir).

Evaluation Example 2
[0505] On a quartz substrate, the compounds shown in Table 2 were vacuum co-deposited (at a pressure of 10.sup.−7 torr) at the weight ratios shown in Table 2 to manufacture 40 nm-thick films of Compounds Pt(1), Pt(2), Pt(3), Ir-1, Ir-3, Pt—C, Pt-D, Pt-E, Pt—F, Ir—C, and Ir-D.
[0506] Then, the emission spectrum for each of the films of Compounds Pt(1), Pt(2), Pt(3), Ir-1, Ir-3, Pt—C, Pt-D, Pt-E, Pt—F, Ir—C, and Ir-D was measured by using a Quantaurus-QY Absolute PL quantum yield spectrometer (produced by Hamamatsu Company, equipped with a xenon light source, a monochromator, a photonic multichannel analyzer, and an integrating sphere, and was programmed by the PLQY measurement software (Hamamatsu Photonics, Ltd., Shizuoka, Japan)). In the measurement, the excitation wavelength was scanned at 10 nm intervals between 320 nm and 380 nm, and a spectrum was measured using an excitation wavelength of 320 nm. Accordingly, Compounds Pt(1), Pt(2), Pt(3), Ir-1, Ir-3, Pt—C, Pt-D, Pt-E, Pt—F, Ir—C, and Ir-D were included in the corresponding Films Pt(1), Pt(2), Pt(3), Ir-1, Ir-3, Pt—C, Pt-D, Pt-E, Pt—F, Ir—C, and Ir-D, and were evaluated for the emission peak wavelength (λ.sub.max, nm), and the results are shown in Table 2.

Manufacture of OLED 1
[0507] An ITO(as an anode)-patterned glass substrate was cut to a size of 50 millimeters (mm)×50 mm×0.5 mm, sonicated with isopropyl alcohol and DI water, each for 5 minutes, and then cleaned by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays and ozone for 30 minutes. The resultant ITO-patterned glass substrate was loaded onto a vacuum deposition apparatus.
[0508] HT3 and F6-TCNNQ were vacuum-deposited on the anode at a weight ratio of 98:2 to form a hole injection layer having a thickness of 100 Å, and then, HT3 was vacuum-deposited on the hole injection layer to form a hole transport layer having a thickness of 1,350 Å. H-H1 was vacuum-deposited on the hole transport layer to form an electron blocking layer having a thickness of 300 Å.
[0509] Subsequently, a host and a dopant were co-deposited at a weight ratio of 88:12 on the electron blocking layer to form an emission layer having a thickness of 400 Å. As the host, H-H1 and H-H2 were used at a weight ratio of 1:1, and as the dopant, the first compound and the second compound shown in Table 3 were used at the weight ratio of 1:1.
[0510] Then, ET3 and ET-D1 were co-deposited at a volume ratio of 50:50 on the emission layer to form an electron transport layer having a thickness of 350 Å, ET-D1 was vacuum-deposited on the electron transport layer to form an electron injection layer having a thickness of 10 Å, and Al was vacuum-deposited on the electron injection layer to form a cathode having a thickness of 1,000 Å, thereby completing the manufacture of an organic light-emitting device.

Manufacture of OLEDs 2 to 4 and A to E
[0511] Organic Light-emitting devices were manufactured in a similar manner as in the manufacture of OLED 1, except those corresponding compounds shown in Table 3 were used as a dopant in forming an emission layer.
Evaluation Example 3
[0512] For the OLEDs 1 to 4 and A to E, the driving voltage (V), the emission peak wavelength (λ.sub.max) (nm), the maximum value of external quantum efficiency (Max EQE) (%), and the lifespan (LT.sub.97) (hr) were evaluated, and the results are shown in Table 3. A current-voltage meter (Keithley 2400) and a luminance meter (Topcon SR3) were used as apparatuses for evaluation, and the lifespan (T.sub.97) (at 18,000 candela per square meter, cd/m.sup.2 or nits) was obtained by measuring the amount of time that elapsed until luminance was reduced to 97% of the initial luminance of 100%, and the results are expressed as relative values. For reference, the dipole moments and the emission peak wavelengths (λ.sub.max) of the compounds used as the dopants in OLEDs 1 to 4 and C to E are summarized in Table 4.
