<Composition for Organic Electroluminescent Element>

[0034] A composition for an organic electroluminescent element according to an embodiment is a composition that forms an organic layer (e.g., an emissive layer) of the organic electroluminescent element and contains a first host represented by Chemical Formula 1 above and a second host represented by Chemical Formula 2 above. The first host is a compound having a structure where three carbazole moieties are directly linked without linkers, and the first host is a P-type host with relatively strong hole properties. The second host is a compound having a structure where a dibenzo moiety is linked to one phenyl portion of a 2,4,6-triphenyl-N-containing heterocyclic moiety, and the second host is an N-type host with relatively strong electron properties. The composition of the present invention can implement a high-efficiency, long-lifespan organic electroluminescent element by using the first host and the second host in combination.

[0035] In the first host represented by Chemical Formula 1, a, d, and f are each an integer of 0 to 3, and b, c, and e are each an integer of 0 to 4. Particularly, when a, b, c, d, e, and f are each 0, it means that hydrogen is not substituted with deuterium (D). Meanwhile, when a, d, and f are each an integer of 1 to 3 and when b, c, and e are each an integer of 1 to 4, it means that one or multiple hydrogens are substituted with deuterium (D). Particularly, 13a+b+c+d+e+f21 may be satisfied. According to one example, the number of deuterium (D) atoms included in the first host may be at least 13, specifically, at least 21. This first host can increase the stability of the chemical structure through deuterium (D) substitution, thereby achieving the characteristics of the organic electroluminescent element, for example, low voltage, high efficiency, and long lifespan characteristics of the element.

[0036] This deuterium may also be substituted with other substituents (R). Particularly, when there are multiple other substituents (R), the substituents are the same or different from each other.

[0116] In the organic electroluminescent element of the present invention, the anode 100 may be mainly disposed on the substrate, and electrically connected to a driving thin film transistor to receive a driving current from the driving thin film transistor. Since the anode 100 is formed of a material having a relatively high work function, holes are injected into an organic layer 300, that is, the hole transport region 310 (e.g., a hole injection layer 311).

[0118] A method of forming the anode is not particularly limited, and may be formed through a commonly used method known in the art. For example, the anode may be formed by coating the anode material on the substrate through a known thin film forming method, such as sputtering, ion plating, vacuum deposition, or spin coating.

[0119] The substrate may be a plate-shaped member for supporting the organic electroluminescent element, and examples thereof may include a silicon wafer, quartz, a glass plate, a metal plate, a plastic film, a sheet, and the like, but embodiments are not limited thereto.

(2) Cathode

[0120] In the organic electroluminescent element of the present invention, the cathode 200 is disposed to face the anode and, specifically, disposed on the electron transport region 330. Since the cathode 200 is formed of a material having a relatively low work function, electrons are injected to an adjacent organic layer, that is, the electron transport region 330 (e.g., an electron injection layer 332).

[0121] A material for forming the cathode is not particularly limited, and a commonly used one known in the art may be used. Examples of the cathode material may include a metal, such as magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium, titanium, indium, yttrium, lithium, gadolinium, aluminum, silver (Ag), tin, or lead; an alloy thereof; and a multilayer structure material, such as LiF/Al or LiO.sub.2/Al, but are not limited thereto.

[0125] Hereinafter, each of the organic layers will be described in detail.

1) Hole Transport Region

[0126] In the organic electroluminescent element 100 of the present invention, the hole transport region 310 is a portion of the organic layers 300 disposed on the anode 100 and serves to transport the holes, injected from the anode 100, to the adjacent emissive layer 320.

[0127] The hole transport region 310 may include at least one selected from the group consisting of the hole injection layer 311 and the hole transport layer 312. Particularly, considering the characteristics of the organic electroluminescent element, both the hole injection layer (311) and the hole transport layer (312) described above are preferably included. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the hole transport region 310 may include the hole injection layer 311 and the hole transport layer 312 sequentially stacked on the anode 100.

[0128] A material for forming the hole injection layer 311 and the hole transport layer 312 of the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it has a low hole injection barrier and a high hole mobility, and the materials for the hole injection/transport layers used in the art may be used without limitation. In such a case, the respective materials for forming the hole injection layer 311 and the hole transport layer 312 may be the same or different from each other.

[0129] Specifically, the hole injection layer 311 may contain a hole injection material known in the art. Non-limiting examples of the hole injection material may include a phthalocyanine compound, such as copper phthalocyanine, N,N-diphenyl-N,N-bis-[4-(phenyl-m-tolyl-amino)-phenyl]-biphenyl-4,4-diamine (DNTPD), 4,4,4-tris(3-methylphenylphenylamino)triphenylamine (m-MTDATA), 4,44-Tris(N, N-diphenylamino)triphenylamine (TDATA), 4,4,4-tris{N-(2-naphthyl)-N-phenylamino}-triphenylamine (2TNATA), poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT/PSS), polyaniline/dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (PANI/DBSA), polyaniline/camphor sulfonic acid (PANI/CSA), polyaniline/poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PANI/PSS), and the like, which may be used alone or in combination of two or more thereof.

[0130] The hole transport layer 312 contains a hole transport material known in the art. Non-limiting examples of the hole transport material may include carbazole-based derivatives, such as N-phenylcarbazole and polyvinylcarbazole; fluorene-based derivatives; amine-based derivatives; triphenylamine-based derivatives, such as N,N-bis(3-methylphenyl)-N,N-diphenyl-[1,1-biphenyl]-4,4-diamine (TPD) and 4,4,4-tris(N-carbazolyl)triphenylamine (TCTA); N,N-di(1-naphthyl)-N,N-diphenylbenzidine (NPB), 4,4-cyclohexylidene bis[N, N-bis(4-methylphenyl)benzenamine] (TAPC), and the like, which may be used alone or in combination of two or more thereof.

[0131] The hole transport region 310 may be formed through a commonly used method known in the art. Examples thereof include vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method, inkjet printing, laser printing, laser induced thermal imaging (LITI), and the like, but are not limited thereto.

2) Emissive Layer

[0132] In the organic electroluminescent element of the present invention, the emissive layer 320 is a portion of the organic layers 300 interposed between the anode 100 and the cathode 200, and specifically disposed on the hole transport region 320. As shown in FIG. 1, the emissive layer 320 may be disposed on the hole transport layer 312.

[0133] The emissive layer 320 is a layer where holes and electrons injected from the anode and the cathode, respectively, are combined to form excitons, and the color of light emitted by the organic electroluminescent element may vary depending on the material forming the emissive layer 320.

[0134] The emissive layer 320 according to the present invention contains the above-described composition containing the first host represented by Chemical Formula 1 and the second host represented by Chemical Formula 2. Optionally, the composition may further contain a phosphorescent emissive dopant. The organic electroluminescent element of the present invention can exhibit excellent phosphorescent emissive properties while having low driving voltage, high efficiency, and long lifespan characteristics, by containing the above-described composition as a material for the emissive layer 320.

[0135] The emissive layer 320 according to the present invention may be a red emissive layer containing a red phosphorescent material, a green emissive layer containing a green phosphorescent material, or a blue emissive layer containing a blue phosphorescent material. According to an example, the emissive layer may contain a green phosphorescent material.

[0136] The above-described emissive layer 320 may be formed as a single layer composed of one type of material, a single layer composed of multiple different materials, or multiple layers of two or more layers, which are composed of different materials. Particularly, when there are multiple emissive layers (320), the organic electroluminescent element can exhibit light of various colors. Specifically, the present invention can provide an organic electroluminescent element exhibiting a mixed color by including multiple emissive layers composed of different types of materials in series. In addition, when the organic electroluminescent element includes multiple emissive layers, the driving voltage of the element may increase but the current value in the organic electroluminescent element becomes constant, and thus can provide an organic electroluminescent element with improved luminous efficiency by the number of emissive layers.

[0137] Although not shown in the drawing, the organic electroluminescent element of the present invention may include multiple emissive stacks (not shown) including at least one emissive layer.

[0138] The multiple emissive layers included in the emissive stacks may exhibit lights of different colors, respectively, or exhibit light of the same color. That is, the color of light emission may vary depending on the material constituting the emissive layer. For example, multiple emissive stacks may contain materials emitting the lights of blue, green, red, yellow, white, and the like, and may be formed using phosphorescent or fluorescent materials. Particularly, the colors exhibited by the respective emissive layers may be in a complementary relationship with each other. Additionally, the color may be selected as a combination of colors that can emit white light. The respective emissive layers may contain phosphorescent dopants or fluorescent dopants corresponding to the selected colors.

[0139] Although not shown in the drawing, the organic electroluminescent element of the present invention may further include a charge generation layer (CGL) (not shown) disposed between adjacent stacks among the multiple emissive layers to connect the stacks.

[0140] The charge generation layer (CGL) refers to a layer that separates adjacently disposed emissive stacks without directly contacting both electrodes (e.g., an anode and a cathode) in an organic electroluminescent element. Such a charge generation layer is disposed between two adjacent emissive stacks to generate electrons, thereby serving as a cathode for one emissive stack, and to generate holes, thereby serving as an anode for the other emissive stack. The charge generation layer may employ any material known as a material for a charge generation layer in the art, without limitation. In addition, a conventional n-type and/or p-type material known in the art may be doped to the material for a charge generation layer.

[0141] The above-described emissive layer 320 may be formed through a commonly used method known in the art. Examples thereof include vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method, inkjet printing, laser printing, laser induced thermal imaging (LITI), and the like, but are not limited thereto. For example, the emissive layer may be formed by co-deposition of the first host represented by Chemical Formula 1 and the second host represented by Chemical Formula 2. In such a case, dopants may also be co-deposited.

3) Electron Transport Region

[0142] In the organic electroluminescent element according to the present invention, the electron transport region 330 is an organic layer disposed on the emissive layer 320 and allows electrons injected from the cathode 200 to migrate to the emissive layer 320.

[0143] The electron transport region 330 may include at least one selected from the group consisting of the electron transport layer 331 and the electron injection layer 332.

[0144] For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the electron transport region 330 may include the electron transport layer 331 and 332 the electron injection layer sequentially stacked on the emissive layer 320.

[0145] In the electron transport region 330 according to the present invention, the electron transport layer 331 may employ any electron transport material that facilitates electron i injection and has high electron mobility, without limitation. Non-limiting examples of the electron transport material may include an oxazole-based compound, an isoxazole-based compound, a triazole-based compound, an isothiazole-based compound, an oxadiazole-based compound, a thiadiazole-based compound, a perylene-based compound, an aluminum complex [e.g., tris(8-quinolinolato)-aluminium (Alq.sub.3), BAlq, SAlq, Alph.sub.3, Almq.sub.3], a gallium complex (e.g., Gaq2OPiv, Gaq2OAc, 2(Gaq2)), and the like, which may be used alone or in a mixture of two or more thereof.

[0146] The electron transport layer 332 may employ any electron injection material that facilitates electron injection and has high electron mobility, without limitation. Non-limiting examples of the electron injection material may include LiF, Li.sub.2O, Bao, NaCl, and CsF; lanthanide metals, such as Yb; metal halides, such as RbCl and RbI, and the like, which may be used alone or in a mixture of two or more thereof.

[0147] The electron transport region 330, specifically, the electron transport layer 331 and/or the electron injection layer 332 according to the present invention may be co-deposited with an n-type dopant to facilitate the injection of electrons from the cathode 200. In such a case, as the n-type dopant, any alkali metal complex compound known in the art may be used without limitation, and examples thereof may include alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, or rare earth metals.

[0148] The electron transport region 330 may be formed through a commonly used method known in the art. Examples thereof include vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method, inkjet printing, laser printing, laser induced thermal imaging (LITI), and the like, but are not limited thereto.

4) Emissive Auxiliary Layer

[0149] Although not shown, the organic electroluminescent element of the present invention may further include an emissive auxiliary layer disposed between the hole transport region 310 and the emissive layer 320.

[0150] The emissive auxiliary layer serves to adjust the thickness of the organic layer 300, while transporting the holes migrating from the hole transport region 310 to the emissive layer 320 or blocking the migration of electrons and/or excitons. Particularly, the emissive auxiliary layer has a high LUMO value to prevent electrons from migrating to the hole transport layer 312 and has a high triplet energy to prevent excitons of the emissive layer 320 from being diffused to the hole transport layer 312.

[0151] The emissive auxiliary layer may contain a hole transport material and may be formed of a material that is the same as a material for the hole transport region. In addition, emissive auxiliary layers of red, green, and blue organic electroluminescent elements may be formed of the same material.

[0152] A material for the emissive auxiliary layer is not particularly limited, and examples thereof may include carbazole derivatives and arylamine derivatives. Specifically, examples of the emissive auxiliary layer may include N, N-dinaphthyl-N,N-diphenylbenzidine (NPD), N,N-bis-(3-methylphenyl)-N,N-bis(phenyl)-benzidine (TPD), S-TAD, 4,4,4-Tris(N-3-methylphenyl-N-phenyl-amino)-triphenylamine (MTDATA), and the like, but are not limited thereto. These may be used alone or in a mixture of two or more thereof.

[0153] The emissive auxiliary layer may further include a p-type dopant in addition to the above-described material. As the p-type dopant usable in the present invention, any known p-type dopant that is generally used in the art may be used without particular limitation. In such a case, the content of the p-type dopant may be appropriately adjusted within a range known in the art, for example, the content of the p-type dopant may be about 0.5 to 50 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the hole transport material.

[0154] As known in the art, the emissive auxiliary layer may be formed by vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method, inkjet printing, laser printing, laser induced thermal imaging (LITI), and the like, but are not limited thereto.

5) Hole Blocking Layer

[0155] Although not shown, the organic electroluminescent device 100 of the present invention may further include a hole blocking layer between the emissive layer 320 and the electron transport region 330.

[0156] The hole blocking layer 333 can block the diffusion (migration) of excitons or holes generated in the emissive layer 320 into the electron transport layer 331, thereby improving the lifespan of the organic electroluminescent element.

[0157] A material for the hole blocking layer may employ any material that has common electron transport properties known in the art, without any limitation, and examples thereof may include 2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BCP), bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinolato) (4-phenyl-phenolato) aluminum (III) (BAlq), and the like.

[0158] As known in the art, the hole blocking layer may be formed by vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method, inkjet printing, laser printing, laser induced thermal imaging (LITI), and the like, but are not limited thereto.

(4) Capping Layer

[0159] Optionally, the organic electroluminescent element 100 of the present invention may further include a capping layer (not shown) disposed on the cathode 200.

[0160] The capping layer serves to help the light generated in the organic layer to be efficiently emitted to the outside, while protecting the organic electroluminescent element.

[0161] The capping layer may contain at least one selected from the group consisting of tris-8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum (Alq.sub.3), ZnSe, 2,5-bis(6-(2,2-bipyridyl))-1,1-dimethyl-3,4-diphenylsilole, 4-bis[N-(1-naphthyl)-N-phenylamino]biphenyl (-NPD), N,N-diphenyl-N,N-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1-biphenyl-4,4-diamine (TPD), and 1,1-bis(di-4-tolylaminophenyl)cyclohexane (TAPC). Such a material for forming the capping layer is inexpensive compared with materials for the other layers in the organic electroluminescent element.

[0162] The capping layer may be a single layer, but may include two or more layers having different refractive indexes so that the light undergoes a gradual change in refractive index while passing through the two or more layers.

[0163] The capping layer may be formed by a commonly used method known in the art, and for example, various methods, such as vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, or Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method may be used.

[0164] As such, the organic electroluminescent element according to the present invention has a structure where the anode 100, the organic layer 300, and the cathode 200 are sequentially stacked. In some cases, an insulating layer (not shown) or an adhesive layer (not shown) may be further included between the anode 100 and the organic layer 300 or between the cathode 200 and the organic layer 300. The organic electroluminescent element of the present invention can have excellent lifespan characteristics since the half-life time of initial brightness is increased while the maximum luminous efficiency is maintained upon the application of voltage and current.

[0165] The above-described organic electroluminescent element of the present invention may be manufactured according to a commonly used method known in the art. For example, an organic electroluminescent element may be manufactured by vacuum-depositing an anode material on a substrate and then sequentially vacuum-depositing a hole transport region material, a light-emitting layer material, an electron transport region material, and a cathode material on the anode.

[0166] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples. However, the following examples are merely for illustrating the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure.

[Example 1] Fabrication of Green Organic EL Element

[0329] Compound A-1 synthesized in Synthesis Example 1 and Compound E-1 synthesized in Synthesis Example 29 were subjected to high-purity sublimation purification by a commonly known method, and then a green organic EL element was fabricated as follows.

[0330] First, a glass substrate thin-film-coated with indium tin oxide (ITO) to a thickness of 1500 was ultrasonically washed with distilled water. After having washed with distilled water, the glass substrate was ultrasonically washed with a solvent, such as isopropyl alcohol, acetone, or methanol, dried, and then transferred to a UV OZONE cleaner (Power sonic 405, Hwashin Tech), and subsequently, the substrate was cleaned for 5 minutes using UV and transferred to a vacuum evaporator.

[0331] On the ITO transparent electrode thus prepared, 98 wt % of HT+2 wt % of PA (100 )/HT (1200 )/HA (300 )/60 wt % of Compound A-1+30 wt % of Compound E-1+10 wt % of Ir(ppy).sub.3 (400 )/EA (50 )/ET+LiQ (300 ; a molar ratio of 1:1)/LiF (10 )/Al (1000 ) were laminated in that order, thereby fabricating an organic EL element.

[0336] As shown in Table 1, the green organic EL elements of Examples 1 to 292 containing, as host materials of the emissive layer, both the compounds (A-1 to D-4) of Chemical Formula 1, corresponding host 1 (P-type host) and the compounds (E-1 to E-13) of Chemical Formula 2, corresponding host 2 (N-type host) according to the present disclosure, exhibited superb performance in view of current efficiency, driving voltage, lifespan characteristics, as compared to the green organic EL elements of Comparative Examples 1 to 12 using both HT-1 to HT-4 and ET-1 to ET-7, corresponding to conventional host materials.

[0337] Additionally, the green organic EL elements of Examples 281 to 292 containing the deuterium-substituted compounds (E-11 to E-13) as host 2 (N-type host) exhibited superb performance in view of current efficiency, driving voltage, lifespan characteristics, as compared to the green organic EL elements of Examples 1 to 280 containing the deuterium-unsubstituted compounds (E-1 to E-10) as host 2 (N-type host). The reason is that the stability of a single molecule itself was further improved by applying the C-D bond having a higher dissociation energy than the CH bond in the form of deuterium substitution to N-type host, corresponding a material having electron properties in the element. That is, it was confirmed that under the same structure, the deuterium-substituted compounds (e.g., E-11 to E-13) can form relatively more excitons than the deuterium-unsubstituted compounds (e.g., E-1 to E-10), leading to a reduction in thermal denaturation caused by the formation of excitons.
