(15) ##STR00014##

(16) In the Formulas 2-1 and 2-2, the electron acceptor moiety X.sub.1 is selected from substituted or non-substituted triazine, substituted or non-substituted dibenzothiophene, substituted or non-substituted 4-azabenzimidazole, or substituted or non-substituted benzimidazole. For example, the electron acceptor moiety X.sub.1 may be selected from materials in Formula 3 of the following.

(17) ##STR00015##

(18) In the Formula 3, each of R.sub.1 to R.sub.4 is independently selected from hydrogen or substituted or non-substituted aryl. For example, each of R.sub.1 to R.sub.4 may be selected from hydrogen or non-substituted phenyl.

(19) In the Formulas 1-1, 1-2, 2-1, and 2-3, each of L.sub.1 and L.sub.2 as the linker is substituted or non-substituted benzene. For example, each of L.sub.1 and L.sub.2 may be a material in Formula 4 of following.

(26) ##STR00018##

(27) Since the delayed fluorescence compound includes the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety with or without another electron donor moiety, the charge transfer is easily generated in the molecule and the emitting efficiency is improved. In addition, the dipole from the first and second electron donor moieties to the electron acceptor moiety is generated such that the dipole moment in the molecule is increased. As a result, the emitting efficiency is further improved.

(28) Moreover, in the delayed fluorescent compound of the present disclosure, the excitons in the triplet state are engaged in the emission such that the emitting efficiency of the delayed fluorescent compound is increased.

(29) Further, since acridine, which has a hexagonal structure, is used as the electron donor moiety, a steric hindrance between the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety is increased, and a dihedral angle between the acridine electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety is also increased. Accordingly, the generation of conjugation between the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety is limited, and the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) is easily separated. As a result, the emitting efficiency of the delayed fluorescent compound is further increased.

(30) In the delayed fluorescence compound of the present disclosure, the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety are combined or linked in the molecule such that an overlap between HOMO and LUMO is reduced. As a result, a field activated complex is generated, and the emitting efficiency of the delayed fluorescence compound is improved.

(31) Since a gap or a distance between the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety is increased due to the linker, an overlap between HOMO and LUMO is reduced such that a gap (?E.sub.ST) between the triple energy and the singlet energy is reduced.

(32) In addition, due to the steric hindrance of the linker, the red shift problem in the light emitted from the emitting layer including the delayed fluorescence compound is decreased or minimized. Namely, the emitting layer with the delayed fluorescence compound of the present disclosure provides deep blue emission.

(33) Referring to FIG. 1, which is a view illustrating an emission mechanism of a delayed fluorescence compound according to the present disclosure, in the delayed fluorescence compound of the present disclosure, the triplet excitons as well as the singlet excitons are engaged in the emission such that the emitting efficiency is improved.

(34) Namely, the triplet exciton is activated by a field, and the triplet exciton and the singlet exciton are transferred into an intermediated state I.sub.1 and transited into a ground state So to emit light. In other words, the singlet state S.sub.1 and the triplet state T.sub.1 are transited into the intermediated state I.sub.1 (S.sub.1.fwdarw.I.sub.1?T.sub.1), and the singlet exciton and the triplet exciton in the intermediated state I.sub.1 are engaged in the emission such that the emitting efficiency is improved. The compound having the above emission mechanism may be referred to as a field activated delayed fluorescence (FADF) compound.

(35) In the related art fluorescence compound, since the HOMO and the LUMO are dispersed throughout an entirety of the molecule, the interconversion of the HOMO and the LUMO is impossible. (Selection Rule)

(36) However, in the FADF compound, since the overlap between the HOMO and the LUMO in the molecule is relatively small, the interaction between the HOMO and the LUMO is small. Accordingly, changes of the spin state of one electron do not affect other electrons, and a new charge transfer band, which does not comply with the Selection Rule, is generated.

(37) Moreover, since the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety are spatially spaced apart from each other in the molecule, the dipole moment is generated in a polarized state. In the polarized state dipole moment, the interaction between the HOMO and the LUMO is further reduced such that the emission mechanism does not comply with the Selection Rule. Accordingly, in the FADF compound, the transition from the triplet state T.sub.1 and the singlet state S.sub.1 into the intermediated state I.sub.1 can be generated such that the triplet exciton can be engaged in the emission.

(38) When the OLED is driven, the intersystem transition (intersystem crossing) from 25% singlet state S.sub.1 excitons and 75% triplet state T.sub.1 excitons to the intermediated state I.sub.1 is generated, and the singlet and triplet excitons in the intermediated state I.sub.1 are transited into the ground state to emit light. As a result, the FADF compound has a theoretic quantum efficiency of 100%.

(39) For example, the delayed fluorescence compound of the present invention may be one of compounds in Formula 7.

(40) ##STR00019## ##STR00020## ##STR00021## ##STR00022## ##STR00023## ##STR00024## ##STR00025##

(41) As mentioned above, the delayed fluorescence compound of the present invention includes an acridine electron donor moiety such that a steric hindrance between the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety is increased, and a dihedral angle between the acridine electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety is also increased.

(42) FIGS. 2A to 2F are views respectively illustrating a molecular structure of a compound having a carbazole electron donor moiety and dibenzothiophenesulfone as an electron acceptor moiety, and FIGS. 3A to 3F are views respectively illustrating a molecular structure of a compound having an acridine electron donor moiety and dibenzothiophenesulfone as an electron acceptor moiety.

(43) Referring to FIGS. 2A to 2F, in the compound including carbazole as the electron donor moiety, the dihedral angle between the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety (or the linker) is about 44 degrees.

(44) On the other hand, referring to FIGS. 3A to 3F, in the compound including acridine as the electron donor moiety, the dihedral angle between the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety (or the linker) is about 90 degrees.

(45) Namely, when acridine is used as the electron donor moiety, the dihedral angle between the acridine electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety is increased, and the generation of conjugation between the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety (or the linker) is limited. As a result, in comparison to the compound including the carbazole electron donor moiety, the HOMO and the LUMO in the compound including the acridine electron donor moiety is easily separated such that the emitting efficiency is further improved.

(284) As shown in Table 2 and FIGS. 4A to 4J, the delayed fluorescence compounds (Com3, Com6, Com7, Com9, Com11, Com15, Com16, Com23, Com27, and Com29) of the present disclosure show the delayed fluorescent emission of hundreds to tens of thousands of nano-seconds (ns).

(285) As mentioned above, the delayed fluorescence compound of the present invention is activated by the field such that the excitons in the singlet state S.sub.1 and the triplet state T.sub.1 are transited into the intermediated state I.sub.1. As a result, both the exciton in the singlet state S.sub.1 and the exciton in the triplet state T.sub.1 are engaged in the emission.

(286) The FADF compound is a single molecule compound having the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety in the single molecule with or without another electron donor moiety such that the charge transfer is easily generated. In the FADF compound with particular conditions, the charge can be separated from the electron donor moiety to the electron acceptor moiety.

(287) The FADF compound is activated by outer factors. It can be verified by comparing the absorption peak and the emission peak of the solution of the compounds.

(288) ? v = vabs - vfl = 2 ? ? 2 hca 3 ? f + constant ( Lippert - Mataga equation )

(289) In the above equation, ?? is the Stock-shift value, and ?abs and ?fl are the wave-number of the maximum absorption peak and the maximum emission peak, respectively. h is Planck's constant, c is the velocity of light, a is the onsager cavity radius, and ?? is a difference between the dipole moment of the excited state and the dipole moment of the ground state. (??=?.sub.e??.sub.g)

(290) ?f is a value indicating the orientational polarizability of the solvent and may be a function of the dielectric constant of the solvent (?) and the refractive index of the solvent (n).

(291) ? f = .Math. - 1 2 .Math. + 1 - n 2 - 1 2 n 2 + 1

(292) Since the intensity of dipole moment in the excited state is determined by the peripheral polarity (e.g., the polarity of the solvent), the FADF can be verified by comparing the absorption peak and the emission peak of the solution of the compounds.

(293) The orientational polarizability (?f) of the mixed solvent can be calculated by using the orientational polarizability of each pure solvent and their mole fraction. When ?f and ?? are linearly plotted by using above Lippert-Mataga equation, the compound may provide the FADF emission.

(294) Namely, when the FADF complex is stabilized according to the orientational polarizability of the solvent, the emission peak is shifted in a long wavelength according to the degree of the stabilization. Accordingly, when the compound provides the FADF emission, ?f and ?? are plotted in a linear line. When ?f and ?? are plotted in a linear line, the compound provides the FADF emission.

(295) In the delayed fluorescence compound of the present invention, the 25% excitons in the singlet state and the 75% excitons in the triplet state are transited into the intermediate state by an outer force, i.e., a field generated when the OLED is driven. (Intersystem crossing.) The excitons in the intermediate state are transited into the ground state such that the emitting efficiency is improved. Namely, in the fluorescent compound, since both the singlet exciton and the triplet exciton are engaged in the emission, the emitting efficiency is improved.

(317) As shown in Table 3, in the OLEDs using the compounds of the present disclosure (Ex1 to Ex16), the properties in the driving voltage, the emitting efficiency and so on are improved.

(318) FIG. 5 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an OLED according to the invention.

(319) As shown in FIG. 5, the OLED E is formed on a substrate (not shown). The OLED E includes a first electrode 110 as an anode, a second electrode 130 as a cathode, and an organic emitting layer 120 therebetween.

(320) Although not shown, an encapsulation film, which includes at least one inorganic layer and at least one organic layer and covers the OLED E, and a cover window on the encapsulation film, may be further formed to form a display device including the OLED E. The substrate, the encapsulation film and the cover window may have a flexible property such that a flexible display device may be provided.

(321) The first electrode 110 is formed of a material having a relatively high work function, and the second electrode 130 is formed of a material having a relatively low work function. For example, the first electrode 110 may be formed of indium-tin-oxide (ITO), and the second electrode 130 may be formed of aluminum (Al) or Al alloy (AlNd). The organic emitting layer 120 may include red, green, and blue emitting patterns.

(322) The organic emitting layer 120 may have a single-layered structure. Alternatively, to improve the emitting efficiency, the organic emitting layer 120 includes a hole injection layer (HIL) 121, a hole transporting layer (HTL) 122, an emitting material layer (EML) 123, an electron transporting layer (ETL) 124, and an electron injection layer (EIL) 125 sequentially stacked on the first electrode 110.

(323) At least one selected from the HIL 121, the HTL 122, the EML 123, the ETL 124, and the EIL 125 includes the delayed fluorescence compound in the Formulas 1-1 or 1-2.

(324) For example, the EML 123 may include the delayed fluorescence compound in the Formulas 1-1 or 1-2. The delayed fluorescence compound acts as the dopant, and the EML 123 may further include a host to emit the blue light. In this instance, the dopant has about 1 to 30 weight % with respect to the host.

(325) A difference between the HOMO of the host HOMO.sub.Host and the HOMO of the dopant HOMO.sub.Dopant or a difference between the LUMO of the host LUMO.sub.Host and the LUMO of the dopant LUMO.sub.Dopant is less than 0.5 eV. (|HOMO.sub.Host?HOMO.sub.Dopant|?0.5 eV or |LUMO.sub.Host?LUMO.sub.Dopant|?0.5 eV.) In this instance, the charge transfer efficiency from the host to the dopant may be improved.

(326) For example, the host, which meets the above condition, may be selected from materials in Formula 9. (Bis[2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl]ether oxide (DPEPO), 2,8-bis(diphenylphosphoryl)dibenzothiophene (PPT), 2,8-di(9H-carbazol-9-yl)dibenzothiophene (DCzDBT), m-bis(carbazol-9-yl)biphenyl (m-CBP), Diphenyl-4-triphenylsilylphenyl-phosphine oxide (TPSO1), 9-(9-phenyl-9H-carbazol-6-yl)-9H-carbazole (CCP) in order.)

(327) ##STR00107## ##STR00108##

(328) The triplet energy of the dopant is smaller than the triplet energy of the host, and a difference between the singlet energy of the dopant and the triplet energy of the dopant is less than 0.3 eV. (?E.sub.ST?0.3 eV.) As the difference ?E.sub.ST is smaller, the emitting efficiency is higher. In the delayed fluorescence compound of the present invention, even if the difference ?E.sub.ST between the singlet energy of the dopant and the triplet energy of the dopant is about 0.3 eV, which is relatively large, the excitons in the singlet state S1 and the excitons in the triplet state T1 can be transited into the intermediate state I1.

(329) On the other hand, the delayed fluorescence compound of the present invention may act as a host in the EML 123, and the EML 123 may further include a dopant to emit the blue light. In this instance, the dopant has approximately 1 to 30 weight % with respect to the host. Since the development of the blue host having excellent properties is insufficient, the delayed fluorescence compound of the present invention may be used as the host to increase the degree of freedom for the host. In this instance, the triplet energy of the dopant may be smaller than the triplet energy of the host of the delayed fluorescence compound of the present disclosure.

(330) The EML 123 may include a first dopant of the delayed fluorescence compound of the present disclosure, a host, and a second dopant. The weight % summation of the first and second dopants may be about 1 to 30 to emit the blue light. In this instance, the emitting efficiency and the color purity may be further improved.

(331) In this instance, the triplet energy of the first dopant, i.e., the delayed fluorescence compound of the present disclosure, may be smaller than the triplet energy of the host, and larger than the triplet energy of the second dopant. In addition, a difference between the singlet energy of the first dopant and the triplet energy of the first dopant is less than 0.3 eV. (?E.sub.ST?0.3 eV.) As the difference ?E.sub.ST is smaller, the emitting efficiency is higher. In the delayed fluorescence compound of the present disclosure, even if the difference ?E.sub.ST between the singlet energy of the dopant and the triplet energy of the dopant is about 0.3 eV, which is relatively large, the excitons in the singlet state S.sub.1 and the excitons in the triplet state T.sub.1 can be transited into the intermediate state I.sub.1.

(332) As mentioned above, since the delayed fluorescence compound of the present disclosure includes the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety with or without another electron donor moiety, and the electron donor moiety of acridine forms a large steric hindrance with the electron acceptor moiety, the emitting efficiency is improved. In addition, the dipole from the first and second electron donor moieties to the electron acceptor moiety is generated such that the dipole moment in the molecule is increased. As a result, the emitting efficiency is further improved. Moreover, in the delayed fluorescent compound of the present invention, the excitons in the triplet state are engaged in the emission such that the emitting efficiency of the delayed fluorescent compound is increased.

(333) Since a gap or a distance between the electron donor moiety and the electron acceptor moiety is increased due to the linker, an overlap between HOMO and LUMO is reduced such that a gap (?E.sub.ST) between the triple energy and the singlet energy is reduced. In addition, due to the steric hindrance of the linker, the red shift problem in the light emitted from the emitting layer including the delayed fluorescence compound is decreased or minimized.

(334) Accordingly, the OLED and the display device using or including the delayed fluorescence compound of the present disclosure has an advantage in the emitting efficiency.

(335) It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the embodiment of the invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Thus, it is intended that the embodiment of the invention cover the modifications and variations of this invention provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
