    [0082] In one preferred aspect of the present invention, the compound represented by the general formula (1) is selected from the following group of compounds.

    ##STR00065## ##STR00066## ##STR00067## ##STR00068##

    [0083] The molecular weight of the compound represented by the general formula (1) is preferably 1500 or less, more preferably 1200 or less, even more preferably 1000 or less, and further more preferably 900 or less, for example, in the case where an organic layer containing the compound represented by the general formula (1) is intended to be film-formed by a vapor deposition method and used. The lower limit of the molecular weight is the molecular weight of the minimum compound represented by the general formula (1).

    [0084] The compound represented by the general formula (1) can be formed into a film by a coating method regardless of the molecular weight. When the coating method is used, even a compound having a relatively large molecular weight can be formed into a film. The compound represented by the general formula (1) has an advantage of being easily dissolved in an organic solvent. For this reason, the compound represented by the general formula (1) is easily applicable to a coating method and is easily purified to increase its purity.

    [0085] The compound represented by the general formula (1) includes one having a high orientation. For example, the compound represented by the general formula (1) includes one that when a composition containing the compound is formed into a film, the film exhibits a high orientation. The orientation is evaluated by an orientation value (S value). An orientation value having a larger negative value (having a smaller numerical value) means a higher orientation. The orientation value (S value) can be determined by the method described in Scientific Reports 2017, 7, 8405.

    [0086] It is also conceivable to use a compound containing a plurality of structures represented by the general formula (1) in a molecule as a light emitting material by applying the present invention.

    [0087] For example, it is conceivable that a polymer obtained by allowing a polymerizable group to be present in the structure represented by the general formula (1) in advance and polymerizing the polymerizable group is used as the light emitting material. For example, it is conceivable that a polymer having a repeating unit is obtained by preparing a monomer containing a polymerizable functional group at any site of the general formula (1) and polymerizing the monomer alone or copolymerizing the monomer with another monomer, and the polymer is used as the light emitting material. Alternatively, it is also conceivable to obtain a dimer or a trimer by coupling compounds having a structure represented by the general formula (1) to each other and to use the dimer or the trimer as a light emitting material.

    [0088] Examples of the polymer having a repeating unit containing a structure represented by the general formula (1) include polymers containing a structure represented by any one of the following two general formulae.

    ##STR00069##

    [0089] In the above general formulae, Q represents a group containing the structure represented by the general formula (1), and L.sup.1 and L.sup.2 represent a linking group. The linking group preferably has 0 to 20 carbon atoms, more preferably 1 to 15 carbon atoms, and even more preferably 2 to 10 carbon atoms. The linking group preferably has a structure represented by X.sup.11-L.sup.11-. Here, X.sup.11 represents an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom, and is preferably an oxygen atom. L.sup.11 represents a linking group, and is preferably a substituted or unsubstituted alkylene group or a substituted or unsubstituted arylene group, and more preferably a substituted or unsubstituted alkylene group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms or a substituted or unsubstituted phenylene group.

    [0090] In the above general formulae, R.sup.101, R.sup.102, R.sup.103 and R.sup.104 each independently represent a substituent. It is preferably a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or a halogen atom, more preferably an unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, an unsubstituted alkoxy group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, a fluorine atom, or a chlorine atom, and even more preferably an unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms or an unsubstituted alkoxy group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms.

    [0091] The linking group represented by L.sup.1 and L.sup.2 can bond to any site of the general formula (1) constituting Q. Two or more linking groups can be linked to one Q to form a cross-linked structure or a network structure.

    [0092] Specific structural examples of the repeating unit include structures represented by the following formulae.

    ##STR00070##

    [0093] The polymer having a repeating unit including these formulae can be synthesized by introducing a hydroxy group into any site of the general formula (1), reacting the following compound using the hydroxy group as a linker to introduce a polymerizable group, and polymerizing the polymerizable group.

    ##STR00071##

    [0094] The polymer having a structure represented by the general formula (1) in the molecule can be a polymer having only a repeating unit that has the structure represented by the general formula (1), or can be a polymer containing a repeating unit that has any other structure. The repeating unit having the structure represented by the general formula (1) to be contained in the polymer can be a single kind or two or more kinds. The repeating unit not having the structure represented by the general formula (1) includes those derived from monomers used in general copolymerization. For example, it includes repeating units derived from monomers having an ethylenically unsaturated bond, such as ethylene or styrene.

    [0095] In some embodiments, the compound represented by the general formula (1) is a light emitting material.

    [0096] In some embodiments, the compound represented by the general formula (1) is a compound capable of emitting delayed fluorescence. In some embodiments, the compound represented by the general formula (1) is a compound having a narrow full-width at half-maximum.

    [0097] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the compound represented by the general formula (1) is, when excited thermally or by an electronic means, able to emit light in a UV region, emit light of blue, green, yellow, orange, or red in a visible spectral region (e.g., about 420 nm to about 500 nm, about 500 nm to about 600 nm, or about 600 nm to about 700 nm) or emit light in a near IR region.

    [0098] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the compound represented by the general formula (1) is, when excited thermally or by an electronic means, able to emit light of a red or orange region in a visible spectrum (e.g., about 610 nm to about 780 nm, or about 650 nm).

    [0099] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the compound represented by the general formula (1) is, when excited thermally or by an electronic means, able to emit light in an IR spectral region (e.g., 780 nm to 2 m).

    [0100] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, an organic semiconductor device using the compound represented by the general formula (1) can be produced. For example, a CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) or the like using the compound represented by the general formula (1) can be produced. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, an organic optical device such as an organic electroluminescent device or a solid-state imaging device (for example, a CMOS image sensor) can be produced using the compound represented by the general formula (1).

    [0101] Electronic characteristics of small-molecule chemical substance libraries can be calculated by known ab initio quantum chemistry calculation. For example, according to time-dependent density functional theory calculation using 6-31G* as a basis, and a functional group known as Becke's three parameters, Lee-Yang-Parr hybrid functionals, the Hartree-Fock equation (TD-DFT/B3LYP/6-31G*) is analyzed and molecular fractions (parts) having HOMO not lower than a specific threshold value and LUMO not higher than a specific threshold value can be screened.

    [0102] With that, for example, in the presence of a HOMO energy (for example, ionizing potential) of 6.5 eV or more, a donor part (D) can be selected. On the other hand, for example, in the presence of a LUMO energy (for example, electron affinity) of 0.5 eV or less, an acceptor part (A) can be selected. A bridge part (B) is a strong conjugated system, for example, capable of strictly limiting the acceptor part and the donor part in a specific three-dimensional configuration, and therefore prevents the donor part and the acceptor part from overlapping in the x-conjugated system.

    [0103] In some embodiments, a compound library is screened using at least one of the following characteristics. [0104] 1. Light emission around a specific wavelength [0105] 2. A triplet state over a calculated specific energy level [0106] 3. E.sub.ST value lower than a specific value [0107] 4. Quantum yield more than a specific value [0108] 5. HOMO level [0109] 6. LUMO level

    [0110] In some embodiments, the difference (E.sub.ST) between the lowest singlet excited state and the lowest triplet excited state at 77 K is less than about 0.5 eV, less than about 0.4 eV, less than about 0.3 eV, less than about 0.2 eV, or less than about 0.1 eV. In some embodiments, E.sub.ST value is less than about 0.09 eV, less than about 0.08 eV, less than about 0.07 eV, less than about 0.06 eV, less than about 0.05 eV, less than about 0.04 eV, less than about 0.03 eV, less than about 0.02 eV, or less than about 0.01 eV.

    [0111] In some embodiments, the compound represented by the general formula (1) shows a quantum yield of more than 25%, for example, about 30%, about 35%, about 40%, about 45%, about 50%, about 55%, about 60%, about 65%, about 70%, about 75%, about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95% or more.

For example, the compound can be synthesized by utilizing ring closure reaction or by utilizing substitution reaction. In the case of utilizing ring closure reaction, for example, as in the following reaction formula, a chloride is prepared, then reacted with t-butyl lithium, and thereafter boron tribromide is added and an amine is added for cyclization to synthesize the compound. For details of the reaction conditions, Synthesis Examples described later can be referred to. The compound represented by the general formula (1) is easier to synthesize than any other compound having a similar skeleton and expressing a multiple resonance effect.

    [Structure Using Compound Represented by General Formula (1)]

    [0114] In some embodiments, the compound represented by the general formula (1) is used along with one or more materials (e.g., small molecules, polymers, metals, metal complexes), by combining them, or by dispersing the compound, or by covalent-bonding with the compound, or by coating with the compound, or by carrying the compound, or by associating with the compound, and solid films or layers are formed. For example, by combining the compound represented by the general formula (1) with an electroactive material, a film can be formed. In some cases, the compound represented by the general formula (1) can be combined with a hole transporting polymer. In some cases, the compound represented by the general formula (1) can be combined with an electron transporting polymer. In some cases, the compound represented by the general formula (1) can be combined with a hole transporting polymer and an electron transporting polymer. In some cases, the compound represented by the general formula (1) can be combined with a copolymer having both a hole transporting moiety and an electron transporting moiety. In the embodiments mentioned above, the electrons and/or the holes formed in a solid film or layer can be interacted with the compound represented by the general formula (1).

    [Film Formation]

    [0115] In some embodiments, a film containing the compound represented by the general formula (1) can be formed in a wet process. In a wet process, a solution prepared by dissolving a composition containing the compound of the present invention is applied onto a surface, and then the solvent is removed to form a film. The wet process includes a spin coating method, a slit coating method, an inkjet method (a spraying method), a gravure printing method, an offset printing method and flexographic printing method, which, however are not limitative. In the wet process, an appropriate organic solvent capable of dissolving a composition containing the compound of the present invention is selected and used. In some embodiments, a substituent (e.g., an alkyl group) capable of increasing the solubility in an organic solvent can be introduced into the compound contained in the composition.

    [0116] In some embodiments, a film containing the compound of the present invention can be formed in a dry process. In some embodiments, a vacuum deposition method is employable as a dry process, which, however, is not limitative. In the case where a vacuum deposition method is employed, compounds to constitute a film can be vapor co-deposited from individual vapor deposition sources, or can be vapor co-deposited from a single vapor deposition source formed by mixing the compounds. In the case where a single vapor deposition source is used, a mixed powder prepared by mixing compound powders can be used, or a compression molded body prepared by compression-molding the mixed powder can be used, or a mixture prepared by heating and melting the compounds and cooling the resulting melt can be used. In some embodiments, by vapor co-deposition under the condition where the vapor deposition rate (weight reduction rate) of the plural compounds contained in a single vapor deposition source is the same or is nearly the same, a film having a compositional ratio corresponding to the compositional ratio of the plural compounds contained in the vapor deposition source can be formed. When plural compounds are mixed in the same compositional ratio as the compositional ratio of the film to be formed to prepare a vapor deposition source, a film having a desired compositional ratio can be formed in a simplified manner. In some embodiments, the temperature at which the compounds to be vapor co-deposited have the same weight reduction ratio is specifically defined, and the temperature can be employed as the temperature of vapor co-deposition.

    ##STR00073## ##STR00074## ##STR00075## ##STR00076## ##STR00077##

    [0128] In addition, the compounds described in WO2015/022974A, paragraphs 0220 to 0239 are also especially favorably employable as a light emitting material for use along with the assist dopant having a structure represented by the general formula (1).

    [0132] In the light emitting layer, a delayed fluorescent material can be used as a light emitting material or an assist dopant. For the light emitting material and the assist dopant, different delayed fluorescent materials can be used. The delayed fluorescent material generally gives fluorescence that has an emission lifetime of 100 ns (nanoseconds) or longer, when the emission lifetime thereof is measured with a fluorescence lifetime measuring system (for example, a streak camera system by Hamamatsu Photonics K.K.). The delayed fluorescent material is preferably such that the difference E.sub.ST between the lowest excited singlet energy and the lowest excited triplet energy at 77 K is 0.3 eV or less, more preferably 0.25 eV or less, even more preferably 0.2 eV or less, further more preferably 0.15 eV or less, further more preferably 0.1 eV or less, further more preferably 0.07 eV or less, further more preferably 0.05 eV or less, further more preferably 0.03 eV or less, and particularly preferably 0.01 eV or less. When E.sub.ST is small, reverse intersystem crossing from an excited triplet state to an excited singlet state can readily occur through thermal energy absorption, and therefore the compound of the type can function as a thermal activation type delayed fluorescent material. A thermal activation type delayed fluorescent material can absorb heat generated by a device to relatively readily undergo reverse intersystem crossing from an excited triplet state to an excited singlet state, and can make the excited triplet energy efficiently contribute toward light emission.

    [0133] In the present invention, the lowest excited singlet energy (E.sub.S1) and the lowest excited triplet energy (ET1) of a compound are determined according to the following process. E.sub.ST is a value determined by calculating E.sub.S1-E.sub.T1.

    (1) Lowest Excited Singlet Energy (E.SUB.S1.)

    [0134] A thin film or a toluene solution (concentration: 10.sup.5 mol/L) of the targeted compound is prepared as a measurement sample. The fluorescent spectrum of the sample is measured at room temperature (300 K). For the fluorescent spectrum, the light emission intensity is on the vertical axis and the wavelength is on the horizontal axis. A tangent line is drawn to the rising of the emission spectrum on the short wavelength side, and the wavelength value .sub.edge [nm] at the intersection between the tangent line and the horizontal axis is read. The wavelength value is converted into an energy value according to the following conversion expression to calculate E.sub.S1.

    [00002] Conversion Expression : E S 1 [ eV ] = 1 2 3 9 . 8 5 / edge

    [0135] For the measurement of the emission spectrum in Examples given below, an LED light source (by Thorlabs Corporation, M300L4) was used as an excitation light source along with a detector (by Hamamatsu Photonics K.K., PMA-12 Multichannel Spectroscope C10027-01).

    (2) Lowest Excited Triplet Energy (E.SUB.T1.)

    [0136] The same sample as that for measurement of the lowest excited singlet energy (E.sub.S1) is cooled to 77 [K] with liquid nitrogen, and the sample for phosphorescence measurement is irradiated with excitation light (300 nm), and using the detector, the phosphorescence thereof is measured. The light emission after 100 milliseconds from irradiation with the excitation light is drawn as a phosphorescent spectrum. A tangent line is drawn to the rising of the phosphorescent spectrum on the short wavelength side, and the wavelength value hedge [nm] at the intersection between the tangent line and the horizontal axis is read. The wavelength value is converted into an energy value according to the following conversion expression to calculate E.sub.T1.

    [00003] Conversion Expression : E T 1 [ eV ] = 1 2 3 9 . 8 5 / edge

    [0137] The tangent line to the rising of the phosphorescent spectrum on the short wavelength side is drawn as follows. While moving on the spectral curve from the short wavelength side of the phosphorescent spectrum toward the local maximum value on the shortest wavelength side among the local maximum values of the spectrum, a tangent line at each point on the curve toward the long wavelength side is taken into consideration. With rising thereof (that is, with increase in the vertical axis), the inclination of the tangent line increases. The tangent line drawn at the point at which the inclination value has a local maximum value is referred to as the tangent line to the rising on the short wavelength side of the phosphorescent spectrum.

    [0138] The local maximum point having a peak intensity of 10% or less of the maximum peak intensity of the spectrum is not included in the local maximum value on the above-mentioned shortest wavelength side, and the tangent line drawn at the point which is closest to the local maximum value on the shortest wavelength side and at which the inclination value has a local maximum value is referred to as the tangent line to the rising on the short wavelength side of the phosphorescent spectrum.

    [0139] Preferably, the delayed fluorescent material does not contain a metal atom. For example, as the delayed fluorescent material, a compound including an atom selected from the group consisting of a carbon atom, a hydrogen atom, a deuterium atom, a nitrogen atom, an oxygen atom, and a sulfur atom can be selected. For example, as the delayed fluorescent material, a compound composed of a carbon atom, a hydrogen atom and a nitrogen atom can be selected.

Preferred examples of the acceptor group include a cyano group, and a group that contains a heteroaryl ring containing a nitrogen atom as a ring skeleton-constituting atom such as a triazinyl ring. Preferred examples of the donor group include a substituted or unsubstituted carbazol-9-yl group.

    [0183] In the following, the constituent members and the other layers than the light emitting layer of the organic electroluminescent device are described.

    Substrate:

    [0184] In some embodiments, the organic electroluminescent device of the present invention is supported by a substrate, wherein the substrate is not particularly limited and can be any materials that have been commonly used in an organic electroluminescent device, for example those formed of glass, transparent plastics, quartz and silicon.

    Anode:

    [0185] In some embodiments, the anode of the organic electroluminescent device is made of a metal, an alloy, an electroconductive compound, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the metal, alloy, or electroconductive compound has a large work function (4 eV or more).

    [0186] In some embodiments, the metal is Au. In some embodiments, the electroconductive transparent material is selected from CuI, indium tin oxide (ITO), SnO.sub.2, and ZnO. In some embodiments, an amorphous material capable of forming a transparent electroconductive film, such as IDIXO (In.sub.2O.sub.3ZnO), is be used. In some embodiments, the anode is a thin film. In some embodiments, the thin film is made by vapor deposition or sputtering. In some embodiments, the film is patterned by a photolithography method. In some embodiments, where the pattern may not require high accuracy (for example, approximately 100 m or more), the pattern can be formed with a mask having a desired shape on vapor deposition or sputtering of the electrode material. In some embodiments, when a material can be applied as a coating, such as an organic electroconductive compound, a wet film forming method, such as a printing method or a coating method is used. In some embodiments, when the emitted light goes through the anode, the anode has a transmittance of more than 10%, and the anode has a sheet resistance of several hundred Ohm per unit area or less. In some embodiments, the thickness of the anode is from 10 to 1,000 nm. In some embodiments, the thickness of the anode is from 10 to 200 nm. In some embodiments, the thickness of the anode varies depending on the material used.

    Cathode:

    [0187] In some embodiments, the cathode is made of an electrode material such as a metal having a small work function (4 eV or less) (referred to as an electron injection metal), an alloy, an electroconductive compound, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the electrode material is selected from sodium, a sodium-potassium alloy, magnesium, lithium, a magnesium-copper mixture, a magnesium-silver mixture, a magnesium-aluminum mixture, a magnesium-indium mixture, an aluminum-aluminum oxide (Al.sub.2O.sub.3) mixture, indium, a lithium-aluminum mixture, and a rare earth element. In some embodiments, a mixture of an electron injection metal and a second metal that is a stable metal having a larger work function than that of the electron injection metal is used. In some embodiments, the mixture is selected from a magnesium-silver mixture, a magnesium-aluminum mixture, a magnesium-indium mixture, an aluminum-aluminum oxide (Al.sub.2O.sub.3) mixture, a lithium-aluminum mixture, and aluminum. In some embodiments, the mixture increases the electron injection property and the durability against oxidation. In some embodiments, the cathode is produced by forming the electrode material into a thin film by vapor deposition or sputtering. In some embodiments, the cathode has a sheet resistance of several hundred Ohm per unit area or less. In some embodiments, the thickness of the cathode is from 10 nm to 5 m. In some embodiments, the thickness of the cathode is from 50 to 200 nm. In some embodiments, for transmitting the emitted light, any one of the anode and the cathode of the organic electroluminescent device is transparent or translucent. In some embodiments, the transparent or translucent electroluminescent devices enhances the light emission luminance.

    [0188] In some embodiments, the cathode is formed with an electroconductive transparent material, as described for the anode, to form a transparent or translucent cathode. In some embodiments, a device comprises an anode and a cathode, both being transparent or translucent.

    Injection Layer:

    [0189] An injection layer is a layer between the electrode and the organic layer. In some embodiments, the injection layer decreases the drive voltage and enhances the light emission luminance. In some embodiments, the injection layer includes a hole injection layer and an electron injection layer. The injection layer can be positioned between the anode and the light emitting layer or the hole transporting layer, and between the cathode and the light emitting layer or the electron transporting layer. In some embodiments, an injection layer is present. In some embodiments, no injection layer is present.

    Barrier Layer:

    [0194] A barrier layer is a layer capable of inhibiting charges (electrons or holes) and/or excitons present in the light emitting layer from being diffused outside the light emitting layer. In some embodiments, the electron barrier layer is between the light emitting layer and the hole transporting layer, and inhibits electrons from passing through the light emitting layer toward the hole transporting layer. In some embodiments, the hole barrier layer is between the light emitting layer and the electron transporting layer, and inhibits holes from passing through the light emitting layer toward the electron transporting layer. In some embodiments, the barrier layer inhibits excitons from being diffused outside the light emitting layer. In some embodiments, the electron barrier layer and the hole barrier layer are exciton barrier layers. As used herein, the term electron barrier layer or exciton barrier layer includes a layer that has both the function of an electron barrier layer and the function of an exciton barrier layer.

    Hole Barrier Layer:

    [0195] A hole barrier layer acts as an electron transporting layer. In some embodiments, the hole barrier layer inhibits holes from reaching the electron transporting layer while transporting electrons.

    Devices:

    [0206] In some embodiments, a light emitting layer is incorporated into a device. For example, the device includes, but is not limited to an OLED bulb, an OLED lamp, a television screen, a computer monitor, a mobile phone, and a tablet.

    [0207] In some embodiments, an electronic device includes an OLED comprising an anode, a cathode, and at least one organic layer comprising a light emitting layer between the anode and the cathode.

    [0208] In some embodiments, compositions described herein can be incorporated into various light-sensitive or light-activated devices, such as OLEDs or opto-electronic devices. In some embodiments, the composition can be useful in facilitating charge transfer or energy transfer within a device and/or as a hole-transport material. The device can be, for example, an organic light emitting diode (OLED), an organic integrated circuit (O-IC), an organic field-effect transistor (O-FET), an organic thin-film transistor (O-TFT), an organic light emitting transistor (O-LET), an organic solar cell (O-SC), an organic optical detector, an organic photoreceptor, an organic field-quench device (O-FQD), a light emitting electrochemical cell (LEC) or an organic laser diode (O-laser).

    Bulbs or Lamps:

    [0209] In some embodiments, an electronic device includes an OLED comprising an anode, a cathode, and at least one organic layer comprising a light emitting layer between the anode and the cathode.

    [0210] In some embodiments, a device comprises OLEDs that differ in color. In some embodiments, a device comprises an array comprising a combination of OLEDs. In some embodiments, the combination of OLEDs is a combination of three colors (e.g., RGB). In some embodiments, the combination of OLEDs is a combination of colors that are not red, green, or blue (for example, orange and yellow green). In some embodiments, the combination of OLEDs is a combination of two, four, or more colors.

    [0211] In some embodiments, a device is an OLED light comprising: [0212] a circuit board having a first surface with a mounting surface and an opposing second surface, and defining at least one opening; [0213] at least one OLED on the mounting surface, the at least one OLED configured to emanate light, the OLED comprising: an anode, a cathode, and at least one organic layer comprising a light emitting layer between the anode and the cathode; [0214] a housing for the circuit board; and [0215] at least one connector arranged at an end of the housing, the housing and the connector defining a package adapted for installation in a light fixture.

    [0216] In some embodiments, the OLED light comprises a plurality of OLEDs mounted on a circuit board such that light emanates in a plurality of directions. In some embodiments, a portion of the light emanated in a first direction is deflected to emanate in a second direction. In some embodiments, a reflector is used to deflect the light emanated in a first direction.

    Displays or Screens:

    [0217] In some embodiments, the light emitting layer of the present invention can be used in a screen or a display. In some embodiments, the compounds of the present invention are deposited onto a substrate using a process including, but not limited to, vacuum evaporation, deposition, vapor deposition, or chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In some embodiments, the substrate is a photoplate structure useful in a two-sided etching that provides a unique aspect ratio pixel. The screen (which can also be referred to as a mask) is used in a process in the manufacturing of OLED displays. The corresponding artwork pattern design facilitates a very steep and narrow tie-bar between the pixels in the vertical direction and a large, sweeping bevel opening in the horizontal direction. This allows the fine patterning of pixels needed for high resolution displays while optimizing the chemical vapor deposition onto a TFT backplane.

    [0218] The internal patterning of the pixel allows the construction of a three-dimensional pixel opening with varying aspect ratios in the horizontal and vertical directions. Additionally, the use of imaged stripes or halftone circles within the pixel area inhibits etching in specific areas until these specific patterns are undercut and fall off the substrate. At that point the entire pixel area is subjected to a similar etching rate but the depths are varying depending on the halftone pattern. Varying the size and spacing of the halftone pattern allow etching to be inhibited at different rates within the pixel and allow a localized deeper etch needed to create steep vertical bevels.

    [0219] A preferred material for the deposition mask is invar. Invar is a metal alloy that is cold rolled into a long thin sheet in a steel mill. Invar cannot be electrodeposited onto a rotating mandrel as the nickel mask. A preferred and more cost feasible method for forming the opening areas in the mask used for deposition is through a wet chemical etching.

    [0220] In some embodiments, a screen or display pattern is a pixel matrix on a substrate. In some embodiments, a screen or display pattern is fabricated using lithography (e.g., photolithography and e-beam lithography). In some embodiments, a screen or display pattern is fabricated using a wet chemical etching. In further embodiments, a screen or display pattern is fabricated using plasma etching.

    Methods of Manufacturing Devices:

    [0221] An OLED display is generally manufactured by forming a large mother panel and then cutting the mother panel in units of cell panels. In general, each of the cell panels on the mother panel is formed by forming a thin film transistor (TFT) including an active layer and a source/drain electrode on a base substrate, applying a planarization film to the TFT, and sequentially forming a pixel electrode, a light emitting layer, a counter electrode, and an encapsulation layer, and then is cut from the mother panel.

    [0222] In another aspect, provided herein is a method of manufacturing an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display, the method comprising: [0223] forming a barrier layer on a base substrate of a mother panel; [0224] forming a plurality of display units in units of cell panels on the barrier layer; [0225] forming an encapsulation layer on each of the display units of the cell panels; [0226] applying an organic film to an interface portion between the cell panels.

    [0227] In some embodiments, the barrier layer is an inorganic film formed of, for example, SiNx, and an edge portion of the barrier layer is covered with an organic film formed of polyimide or acryl. In some embodiments, the organic film helps the mother panel to be softly cut in units of the cell panel.

    [0228] In some embodiments, the thin film transistor (TFT) layer includes a light emitting layer, a gate electrode, and a source/drain electrode. Each of the plurality of display units may include a thin film transistor (TFT) layer, a planarization film formed on the TFT layer, and a light emitting unit formed on the planarization film, wherein the organic film applied to the interface portion is formed of a same material as a material of the planarization film and is formed at a same time as the planarization film is formed. In some embodiments, a light emitting unit is connected to the TFT layer with a passivation layer and a planarization film therebetween and an encapsulation layer that covers and protects the light emitting unit. In some embodiments of the method of manufacturing, the organic film is connected to neither the display units nor the encapsulation layer.

    [0229] Each of the organic film and the planarization film can include any one of polyimide and acryl. In some embodiments, the barrier layer can be an inorganic film. In some embodiments, the base substrate can be formed of polyimide. The method can further include, before the forming of the barrier layer on one surface of the base substrate formed of polyimide, attaching a carrier substrate formed of a glass material to another surface of the base substrate, and before the cutting along the interface portion, separating the carrier substrate from the base substrate. In some embodiments, the OLED display is a flexible display.

    [0230] In some embodiments, the passivation layer is an organic film disposed on the TFT layer to cover the TFT layer. In some embodiments, the planarization film is an organic film formed on the passivation layer. In some embodiments, the planarization film is formed of polyimide or acryl, like the organic film formed on the edge portion of the barrier layer. In some embodiments, the planarization film and the organic film are simultaneously formed when the OLED display is manufactured. In some embodiments, the organic film can be formed on the edge portion of the barrier layer such that a portion of the organic film directly contacts the base substrate and a remaining portion of the organic film contacts the barrier layer while surrounding the edge portion of the barrier layer.

    [0231] In some embodiments, the light emitting layer includes a pixel electrode, a counter electrode, and an organic light emitting layer disposed between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode. In some embodiments, the pixel electrode is connected to the source/drain electrode of the TFT layer.

    [0232] In some embodiments, when a voltage is applied to the pixel electrode through the TFT layer, an appropriate voltage is formed between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode, and thus the organic light emitting layer emits light, thereby forming an image. Hereinafter, an image forming unit including the TFT layer and the light emitting unit is referred to as a display unit.

    [0233] In some embodiments, the encapsulation layer that covers the display unit and prevents penetration of external moisture can be formed to have a thin film encapsulation structure in which an organic film and an inorganic film are alternately stacked. In some embodiments, the encapsulation layer has a thin film encapsulation structure in which a plurality of thin films are stacked. In some embodiments, the organic film applied to the interface portion is spaced apart from each of the plurality of display units. In some embodiments, the organic film is formed such that a portion of the organic film directly contacts the base substrate and a remaining portion of the organic film contacts the barrier layer while surrounding an edge portion of the barrier layer.

    [0234] In one embodiment, the OLED display is flexible and uses the soft base substrate formed of polyimide. In some embodiments, the base substrate is formed on a carrier substrate formed of a glass material, and then the carrier substrate is separated.

    [0235] In some embodiments, the barrier layer is formed on a surface of the base substrate opposite to the carrier substrate. In one embodiment, the barrier layer is patterned according to a size of each of the cell panels. For example, while the base substrate is formed over the entire surface of a mother panel, the barrier layer is formed according to a size of each of the cell panels, and thus a groove is formed at an interface portion between the barrier layers of the cell panels. Each of the cell panels can be cut along the groove.

    [0236] In some embodiments, the method of manufacture further comprises cutting along the interface portion, wherein a groove is formed in the barrier layer, wherein at least a portion of the organic film is formed in the groove, and wherein the groove does not penetrate into the base substrate. In some embodiments, the TFT layer of each of the cell panels is formed, and the passivation layer which is an inorganic film and the planarization film which is an organic film are disposed on the TFT layer to cover the TFT layer. At the same time as the planarization film formed of, for example, polyimide or acryl is formed, the groove at the interface portion is covered with the organic film formed of, for example, polyimide or acryl. This is to prevent cracks from occurring by allowing the organic film to absorb an impact generated when each of the cell panels is cut along the groove at the interface portion. That is, if the entire barrier layer is entirely exposed without the organic film, an impact generated when each of the cell panels is cut along the groove at the interface portion is transferred to the barrier layer, thereby increasing the risk of cracks. However, in one embodiment, since the groove at the interface portion between the barrier layers is covered with the organic film and the organic film absorbs an impact that would otherwise be transferred to the barrier layer, each of the cell panels can be softly cut and cracks can be prevented from occurring in the barrier layer. In one embodiment, the organic film covering the groove at the interface portion and the planarization film are spaced apart from each other. For example, if the organic film and the planarization film are connected to each other as one layer, since external moisture may penetrate into the display unit through the planarization film and a portion where the organic film remains, the organic film and the planarization film are spaced apart from each other such that the organic film is spaced apart from the display unit.

    [0237] In some embodiments, the display unit is formed by forming the light emitting unit, and the encapsulation layer is disposed on the display unit to cover the display unit. As such, once the mother panel is completely manufactured, the carrier substrate that supports the base substrate is separated from the base substrate. In some embodiments, when a laser beam is emitted toward the carrier substrate, the carrier substrate is separated from the base substrate due to a difference in a thermal expansion coefficient between the carrier substrate and the base substrate.

    [0238] In some embodiments, the mother panel is cut in units of the cell panels. In some embodiments, the mother panel is cut along an interface portion between the cell panels by using a cutter. In some embodiments, since the groove at the interface portion along which the mother panel is cut is covered with the organic film, the organic film absorbs an impact during the cutting. In some embodiments, cracks can be prevented from occurring in the barrier layer during the cutting.

    [0239] In some embodiments, the methods reduce a defect rate of a product and stabilize its quality.

    [0240] Another aspect is an OLED display including: a barrier layer that is formed on a base substrate; a display unit that is formed on the barrier layer; an encapsulation layer that is formed on the display unit; and an organic film that is applied to an edge portion of the barrier layer.

    [0288] Compound 120 and H1 were vapor-deposited from different vapor deposition sources on a quartz substrate by a vacuum deposition method under conditions of a vacuum degree of less than 1 10-3 Pa to form a thin film having a content of Compound 120 of 0.5% by weight and a thickness of 100 nm. The photoluminescent quantum yield (PLQY) of the formed thin film was measured, and was a high value of 86%. The maximum emission wavelength was 612 nm, and the full-width at half-maximum was 38 nm.

    [0289] A thin film was formed according to the same process but using Compound 4 in place of Compound 120, and the photoluminescent quantum yield (PLQY) thereof was measured and was a high value of 92%. The maximum emission wavelength was 615 nm, and the full-width at half-maximum was 39 nm.

    [0290] On a glass substrate on which an anode made of indium-tin oxide (ITO) having a film thickness of 100 nm was formed, thin films were laminated by a vacuum deposition method at a vacuum degree of 110.sup.5 Pa. First, HAT-CN was formed to a thickness of 10 nm on the ITO, NPD was formed to a thickness of 30 nm on the HAT-CN, further TrisPCz was formed to a thickness of 10 nm thereon, and further H1 was formed to a thickness of 5 nm. Next, H1, T64 and Compound 120 were vapor co-deposited from different vapor deposition sources to form a light emitting layer with a thickness of 40 nm. The content of H1, T64 and Compound 120 was 64.5% by mass, 35.0% by mass, and 0.5% by mass, respectively. Next, after SF3-TRZ was formed to a thickness of 10 nm, Liq and SF3-TRZ were vapor co-deposited from different vapor deposition sources to form a layer with a thickness of 30 nm. The content of Liq and SF3-TRZ in this layer was 30% by mass and 70% by mass, respectively. Furthermore, Liq was formed to a thickness of 2 nm, and aluminum (Al) was vapor-deposited to a thickness of 100 nm to form a cathode, thereby producing an organic electroluminescent device.

Among the materials contained in the light emitting layer, the amount of light emission from Compound 120 was the largest. The S value of Compound 120 in the light emitting layer was measured, and was-0.4, which confirmed high orientation of Compound 120.
