DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] Reference will now be made in further detail to exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout. In this regard, the present exemplary embodiments may have different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the detailed descriptions set forth herein. Accordingly, the exemplary embodiments are merely described in further detail below by referring to the figures, to explain certain 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.

[0043] 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.

[0044] 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.

[0045] 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.

[0046] 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.

[0047] 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.

[0048] “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.

[0049] Hereinafter, a work function or a highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy level may be 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 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.

[0050] A light-emitting device includes a first electrode, a second electrode facing the first electrode, and an interlayer arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode.

[0055] The first compound includes a first transition metal, the second compound includes a second transition metal, and the first transition metal and the second transition metal are different from each other.

[0056] The first transition metal and the second transition metal may each independently be iridium, platinum, osmium, rhenium, gold, or palladium.

[0057] |HOMO(1)−HOMO(2)| of the light-emitting device is about 0.05 electron Volts (eV) to about 0.4 eV.

[0062] In one or more embodiments, a dipole moment of the first compound may be less than about 3.0 debye, and a dipole moment of the second compound may be about 3.0 debye or greater.

[0063] As used herein, a “dipole moment” may be calculated based on a density functional theory (DFT). Any various programs may be used for quantum mechanical calculation based on the DFT, and for example, a Gaussian 16 program may be used.

[0064] For example, a method of evaluating the dipole moment of each of the first compound and the second compound may be as described in the Evaluation Examples herein.

[0065] In one or more embodiments, a dipole moment of the first compound may be about 0.5 debye to about 4.0 debye, about 1.0 debye to about 4.0 debye, about 1.5 debye to about 4.0 debye, about 0.5 debye to about 3.5 debye, about 1.0 debye to about 3.5 debye, about 1.5 debye to about 3.5 debye, 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 0.5 debye to about 2.5 debye, about 1.0 debye to about 2.5 debye, about 1.5 debye to about 2.5 debye, about 0.5 debye to about 2.0 debye, about 1.0 debye to about 2.0 debye, or about 1.5 debye to about 2.0 debye.

[0068] λmax(1) and λmax(2) are evaluated from photoluminescence spectra measured for a first film and a second film, respectively.

[0069] 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 various methods, for example, a vacuum deposition method, and a coating and heating method. The first film and the second film may further include other compounds, for example, a host described herein, in addition to the first compound and the second compound. It is to be understood that the first film comprises the first compound and does not comprise the second compound, whereas the second film comprises the second compound and does not comprise the first compound.

[0070] For example, a method of evaluating λmax(1) and λmax(2) may be as described in the Evaluation Examples herein.

[0071] In one or more embodiments, each of λmax(1) and λmax(2) may be about 500 nm to about 570 nm.

[0074] In one or more embodiments,

[0075] λmax(1) may be about 510 nm to about 530 nm, and λmax(2) may be about 520 nm to about 540 nm, or

[0076] λmax(1) may be about 540 nm to about 560 nm, and λmax(2) may be about 550 nm to about 570 nm.

In addition, each of the first compound and the second compound may satisfy the dipole moment conditions as described herein.

[0088] Without wishing to be bound to theory, since excitons generated in the first emission layer including the first compound are distributed over a relatively wide area, 1) a change in color purity of the light-emitting device due to a change in exciton distribution according to a change in luminance may be reduced, and 2) resistance of the light-emitting device may be reduced so that an resistance capacitance (RC) delay may be improved, and thus, the light-emitting device may have an improved response speed for turning-on and turning-off.

[0089] Furthermore, and without wishing to be bound to theory, since excitons generated in the second emission layer including the second compound are distributed over a relatively narrow area, 1) microcavity resonance of light emitted by the excitons may be effectively achieved so that external luminescence efficiency of the light-emitting device including the second emission layer may be improved, and 2) deterioration due to excitons at an interface between the second emission layer and a neighboring layer thereof may be reduced, and thus, the light-emitting device including the second emission layer may have an improved lifespan. In addition, since a recombination rate of holes and electrons in the second emission layer including the second compound may be increased, internal luminescence efficiency of the light-emitting device including the second emission layer may also be improved.

[0090] Accordingly, the light-emitting device including the first emission layer and the second emission layer as described herein may simultaneously achieve an increase in luminescence efficiency, an increase in lifespan, a decrease in color purity change, and an increase in response speed (that is, a decrease in turn-on time and turn-off time), and thus may have high-quality luminescence characteristics.

Description of FIG. 1

[0399] FIG. 1 schematically illustrates a cross-sectional view of an organic light-emitting device 101, which is a light-emitting device according to one or more embodiments. Hereinafter, the structure and manufacturing method of the organic light-emitting device 101 according to one or more embodiments will be described in connection with FIG. 1.

[0400] The organic light-emitting device 101 of FIG. 1 includes a first electrode 110, a second electrode 190, and an interlayer (not shown) arranged between the first electrode 110 and the second electrode 190, wherein the interlayer includes a hole transport region 120, an emission layer 150, and an electron transport region 170.

[0401] A substrate may be additionally arranged under the first electrode 110 or above the second electrode 190. For use as the substrate, any substrate that is used in organic light-emitting devices available in the art may be used, and the substrate may be a glass substrate or a transparent plastic substrate, each having excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, transparency, surface smoothness, ease of handling, and/or water resistance.

[0402] The first electrode 110 may be formed by, for example, depositing or sputtering a material for forming the first electrode 110 on the substrate. The first electrode 110 may be an anode. The material for forming the first electrode 110 may include materials with a high work function to facilitate hole injection. The first electrode 110 may be a reflective electrode. The material for forming the first electrode 110 may be indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), tin oxide (SnO.sub.2), or zinc oxide (ZnO). In one or more embodiments, the material for forming the first electrode 110 may be metal, such as magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), silver (Ag), aluminum-lithium (Al—Li), calcium (Ca), magnesium-indium (Mg—In), or magnesium-silver (Mg—Ag).

[0403] The first electrode 110 may have a single-layered structure or a multi-layered structure including two or more layers. For example, the first electrode 110 may have a three-layered structure of ITO/Ag/ITO.

[0404] The hole transport region 120 may be arranged between the first electrode 110 and the emission layer 150.

[0405] The hole transport region 120 may include a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, a buffer layer, or a combination thereof.

[0406] The hole transport region 120 may include only a hole injection layer or only a hole transport layer. In one or more embodiments, the hole transport region 120 may have a hole injection layer/hole transport layer structure or a hole injection layer/hole transport layer/electron blocking layer structure, which are sequentially stacked in this stated order from the first electrode 110.

[0407] When the hole transport region 120 includes a hole injection layer, the hole injection layer may be formed on the first electrode 110 by using one or more suitable methods, for example, vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) deposition, and/or ink-jet printing.

[0408] When the hole injection layer is formed by vacuum deposition, the deposition conditions may vary depending on a material that is used to form the hole injection layer, and the structure and thermal characteristics of the hole injection layer. For example, the deposition conditions may include a deposition temperature of about 100° C. to about 500° C., a vacuum pressure of about 10.sup.−8 torr to about 10.sup.−3 torr, and a deposition rate of about 0.01 angstroms per second (Å/sec) to about 100 Å/sec.

[0409] When the hole injection layer is formed by spin coating, the coating conditions may vary depending on a material that is used to form the hole injection layer, and the structure and thermal characteristics of the hole injection layer. For example, the coating conditions may include a coating speed of about 2,000 revolutions per minute (rpm) to about 5,000 rpm and a heat treatment temperature of about 80° C. to about 200° C. for removing a solvent after coating.

[0410] The conditions for forming the hole transport layer and the electron blocking layer may be as the conditions for forming the hole injection layer.

[0411] The hole transport region 120 may include 4,4′,4″-tris(3-methylphenylphenylam ino)triphenylamine (m-MTDATA), 4,4′,4″-tris(N, N-diphenylam ino)triphenylam ine (TDATA), 4,4′,4″-tris{N-(2-naphthyl)-N-phenylamino}-triphenylamine (2-TNATA), N,N′-di(1-naphthyl)-N,N′-diphenylbenzidine (NPB), β-NPB, N,N′-bis(3-methylphenyl)-N, N′-diphenyl-[1,1-biphenyl]-4,4′-diamine (TPD), spiro-TPD, spiro-NPB, methylated NPB, 4,4′-cyclohexylidene bis[N,N-bis(4-methylphenyl)benzenamine] (TAPC), 4,4′-bis[N, N′-(3-tolyl)amino]-3,3′-dimethylbiphenyl (HMTPD), 4,4′, 4″-tris(N-carbazolyl)triphenylamine (TCTA), polyaniline/dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (PANI/DBSA), poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT/PSS), polyaniline/camphor sulfonic acid (PANI/CSA), polyaniline/poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PANI/PSS), a compound represented by Formula 201, a compound represented by Formula 202, or a combination thereof:

Evaluation Example 1

[0501] The HOMO energy levels of Ir-1 and Pt-1 were measured by using differential pulse voltammetry using ferrocene as a reference material, and the results are shown in Table 1. In detail, Bu.sub.4NPF.sub.6 at a concentration of 0.1 moles per liter (molar, M) was dissolved in dichloromethane, and was used as an electrolyte. The following measurement conditions were used: a pulse height of 50 millivolts (mV), a pulse width of 1 second, a step height of 10 mV, a step width of 2 seconds, and a scan rate of 5 millivolts per second (mV/sec). Ag/AgNO.sub.3 was used as a reference electrode, thereby obtaining a potential(Volts, V)-current(milliamperes, mA) graph of each compound. Then, E.sub.peak(eV), which is an oxidation peak potential of the graph, was evaluated. Subsequently, E.sub.peak(eV) was substituted for E.sub.peak in Equation 1 to obtain the HOMO energy level (eV) of each compound:

HOMO(eV)=−4.8−(E.sub.peak−E.sub.peak(Ferrocene))  Equation 1

Evaluation Example 4

[0516] The luminescence efficiency (at CIEx=0.26) (cd/A) and lifespan (T.sub.97) (hr) of each of OLED 1 (Pt—Pt), OLED 2 (Ir—Pt), and OLED 3 (Pt—Ir) were evaluated, and the results are summarized in Table 5. As an evaluation device, a current-voltmeter (Keithley 2400) and a luminance meter (Minolta Cs-1000A) were used, and the lifespan (T.sub.97) (at 15,000 candela per square meter (cd/m.sup.2) was evaluated as the time taken for luminance to reduce to 97% of 100% of the initial luminance. FIGS. 3 and 4 respectively show the x-color coordinate-luminescence efficiency graph and the time-emission intensity graph of each of OLED 1 (Pt—Pt), OLED 2 (Ir—Pt), and OLED 3 (Pt—Ir). The luminescence efficiency and the lifespan in Table 5 as well as the emission intensity in FIG. 4 are each expressed as a relative value (%).

[0517] From Table 5, it may be confirmed that OLED 2 (Ir—Pt) and OLED 3 (Pt—Ir) have superior luminescence efficiency and lifespan characteristics compared to OLED 1 (Pt—Pt). From FIG. 4, it may be confirmed that OLED 2 (Ir—Pt) and OLED 3 (Pt—Ir) have superior emission intensity according to time compared to OLED 1 (Pt—Pt).

Evaluation Example 5

[0518] ΔCIEx according to luminance change in the range of 2 cd/m.sup.2 to 15,000 cd/m.sup.2 of each of OLED 4 (Ir—Ir), OLED 2 (Ir—Pt), OLED 3 (Pt—Ir), and OLED 1 (Pt—Pt) were evaluated, and the minimum values of ΔCIEx (that is, ΔCIEx having the maximum absolute value) of each device are summarized in Table 6. ΔCIEx was evaluated by calculating CIEx(1)-CIEx(2) at a corresponding luminance for each device, wherein CIEx(1) is a CIEx value of each device at the luminance of 2 cd/m.sup.2, and CIEx(2) is a CIEx value of each device at the corresponding luminance. The evaluation was performed using a current-voltmeter (Keithley 2400) and a luminance meter (Minolta Cs-1000A). FIG. 5 shows the luminance (cd/m.sup.2)-ΔCIEx graph of each of OLED 4 (Ir—Ir), OLED 2 (Ir—Pt), OLED 3 (Pt—Ir), and OLED 1 (Pt—Pt) in the range of 2 cd/m.sup.2 to 15,000 cd/m.sup.2. For example, from FIG. 5, it is confirmed that “CIEx(1)-CIEx(2) at 15,000 cd/m.sup.2 for OLED 4 (Ir—Ir)” is −0.008 (that is, a value of y-coordinate of the last point) and the minimum values of ΔCIEx in the range of 2 cd/m.sup.2 to 15,000 cd/m.sup.2 is 0.008.

[0519] From Table 6, it may be confirmed that OLED 2 (Ir—Pt) and OLED 3 (Pt—Ir) have a reduced amount of change in color purity as compared with OLED 4 (Ir—Ir), and thus may emit light having uniform color purity and accurate gradation in the entire range of low luminance and high luminance.

Evaluation Example 6

[0520] For each of OLED 4 (Ir—Ir), OLED 2 (Ir—Pt), OLED 3 (Pt—Ir), and OLED 1 (Pt—Pt), the transient electroluminescence (EL) intensity thereof was evaluated by using a Keysight DSO9104A oscilloscope while a voltage pulse was applied thereto (the width of the pulse was between 100 nanoseconds (ns) and 1 millisecond (ms)) by using a Keysight 81150A pulse function generator. Then, the turn-on time (μs), which was the time taken for luminance to increase from 10% to 90%, turn-on speed (relative value, %), turn-off time (μs), which was the time taken for luminance to decrease from 90% to 10%, and turn-off speed (relative value, %) of each device was evaluated, and the results thereof are summarized in Table 7. Turn-on speed and turn-off speed are defined by the changing speeds of the EL intensities according to time. FIGS. 6 and 7 show the evaluation results of the transient EL intensity (time-EL intensity graph) of each of OLED 4 (Ir—Ir), OLED 2 (Ir—Pt), OLED 3 (Pt—Ir), and OLED 1 (Pt—Pt).
