Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION



[0001] The present disclosure relates to a condensed cyclic compound, a composition including the same, and an organic light-emitting device including the condensed cyclic compound.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION



[0002] Organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) are self-emission devices that have wide viewing angles, high contrast ratios, and short response times. In addition, OLEDs display excellent brightness, driving voltage, and response speed characteristics, and produce full-color images.

[0003] In an example, an organic light-emitting device includes an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer that is disposed between the anode and the cathode, wherein the organic layer includes an emission layer. A hole transport region may be disposed between the anode and the emission layer, and an electron transport region may be disposed between the emission layer and the cathode. Holes provided from the anode may move toward the emission layer through the hole transport region, and electrons provided from the cathode may move toward the emission layer through the electron transport region. Carriers, such as holes and electrons, recombine in the emission layer to produce excitons. These excitons are changed from an excited state to a ground state, thereby generating light.

[0004] Various types of organic light emitting devices are known. However, there still remains a need in OLEDs having low driving voltage, high efficiency, high brightness, and long lifespan.

[0005] CN 105 418 486 discloses an organic electroluminescent compound, its use in organic photoelectric devices and an organic photoelectric device containing the same.

[0015] 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.

[0016] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting.

[0017] 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.

[0018] 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.

[0019] 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.

[0020] "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.

[0043] In various embodiments, A1 in Formula 1B and 1C may be different from a first carbazole ring ("first carbazole" is the same as defined herein in connection with Formula 1') included in Formula 1B or 1C.

[0044] In various embodiments, the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C may have a symmetrical structure.

[0045] In various embodiments, the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C may have an asymmetrical structure.

[0046] In various embodiments, the condensed cyclic compound may be represented by one selected from Formulae 1B-1 to 1B-76 and 1C-1 to 1C-76, but embodiments are not limited thereto:













































































[0047] In Formulae 1B-1 to 1B-76 and 1C-1 to 1C-76,
A1, R11, and R12 are each independently as defined herein in the present specification,
R8 to R10 and R10a are each independently the same as defined herein in connection with R1,
R3 to R7 are each independently the same as defined herein in connection with R2,
R13 is the same as defined herein in connection with R11, and

[0048] For example, in Formulae 1B-1 to 1B-76 and 1C-1 to 1C-76, R3 to R10 and R10a may not be a cyano group.

[0049] In various embodiments, in Formulae 1B-1 to 1B-76 and 1C-1 to 1C-76, R3 to R10 and R10a may each independently be selected from:

hydrogen, deuterium, -F, a C1-C20 alkyl group, and a C1-C20 alkoxy group; and

a C1-C20 alkyl group and a C1-C20 alkoxy group, each substituted with at least one of deuterium and -F, but embodiments are not limited thereto.



[0050] For example, in Formulae 1B-1 to 1B-76 and 1C-1 to 1C-76, A1 may be selected from groups represented by Formulae 2B-1 to 2B-4, but embodiments are not limited thereto.

[0051] In various embodiments, in Formula 1B and 1C, R11, R12, R21, R22, and R27 to R28 may not be a substituted or unsubstituted carbazolyl group.

[0052] For example, the condensed cyclic compound may be selected from Compounds 54 to 100, 104 to 105, 112 to 153, 156 to 158, 291, 292, 295, 297, 298 and 300, but embodiments are not limited thereto. The remaining compounds shown below do not form part of the present invention:





































































































































[0053] In Formula 1B and 1C, a first carbazole ring is combined with a carbon atom at an "ortho-position" with respect to a carbon atom combined with a second benzene ring of a first benzene ring (see Formula 1'). In this regard, the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B and 1C may have a relatively high triplet state (T1) energy level, compared to a compound structure combined with a carbon atom at a "para-position" or a "meta-position". Accordingly, a material, such as a host material included in an emission layer, for forming an organic light-emitting device may have suitable electric characteristics to be applied to a blue light-emitting device. Therefore, an organic light-emitting device including the condensed cyclic compound may exhibit high efficiency and long lifespan.



[0054] In addition, in Formula 1B and 1C, 1, 2, 3, or 4 groups selected from R1 in the number of a1 and R2 in the number of a2 may be a cyano group. That is, in a biphenylene group of Formula 1B and 1C is substituted with 1 to 4 cyano group(s) (see Formula 1'). In addition, in Formula 1B and 1C, R1 and R2 are not a "cyclic group". Thus, the condensed cyclic compound may have a relatively low lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy level (i.e., a relatively large absolute value of the LUMO energy level) and excellent electron mobility. Accordingly, a material, such as a host material included in an emission layer, for forming an organic light-emitting device may have suitable electric characteristics. Therefore, an organic light-emitting device including the condensed cyclic compound may exhibit high efficiency and long lifespan.

[0055] For example, the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO), the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), triplet state (T1) energy level, and singlet state (S1) energy level of Compounds 1, 3, 5, 7, 26, 46, 52, 55, 95, 97, 106, 176, 179, 216, and 219 and Compounds A and B evaluated through simulations using DFT methods of Gaussian programs (molecular structures are optimized at the B3LYP, 6-31 G(d,p) levels), and the evaluation results are shown in Table 1:

[0056] Referring to Table 1, it was confirmed that the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C had a higher T1 energy level than that of Compound A, and a lower LUMO energy level than that of Compound B, wherein such a low LUMO energy level is advantageous for movement of electrons within an emission layer. That is, it was confirmed that the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C having a relatively high T1 energy level and a low LUMO energy level was suitable for use in an emission layer of an electronic device, such as an organic light-emitting device.

[0057] Synthesis methods of the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C may be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art by referring to Synthesis Examples that will described below.

[0111] For example, the organic layer may include, as the condensed cyclic compound, only Compound 1. Here, Compound 1 may be in the emission layer of the organic light-emitting device. In various embodiments, the organic layer may include, as the condensed cyclic compound, Compound 1 and Compound 2. Here, Compound 1 and Compound 2 may be in an identical layer (for example, Compound 1 and Compound 2 may both be in the emission layer), or in different layers (for example, Compound 1 may be in the emission layer and Compound 2 may be in the electron blocking layer).

[0112] The first electrode may be an anode, which is a hole injection electrode, and the second electrode may be a cathode, which is an electron injection electrode. In various embodiments, the first electrode may be a cathode, which is an electron injection electrode, and the second electrode may be an anode, which is a hole injection electrode.

[0113] The term "organic layer" as used herein may refer to a single layer and/or a plurality of layers disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode of the organic light-emitting device. The "organic layer" may include not only an organic compound, but also a metal-containing organometallic complex.

[0114] FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an organic light-emitting device 10 according to an embodiment. Hereinafter, the structure of an organic light-emitting device according to an embodiment and a method of manufacturing an organic light-emitting device, according to an embodiment, will be described in connection with FIG. 1. The organic light-emitting device 10 includes a first electrode 11, an organic layer 15, and a second electrode 19, which are sequentially stacked in this stated order.

[0115] A substrate may be additionally disposed under the first electrode 11 or above the second electrode 19. For use as the substrate, any substrate that is used in general organic light-emitting devices 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 water-resistance.

[0116] The first electrode 11 may be, for example, formed by depositing or sputtering a material for forming the first electrode 11 on the substrate. The first electrode 11 may be an anode. The material for forming the first electrode 11 may be selected from materials with a high work function to facilitate hole injection. The first electrode 11 may be a reflective electrode, a semi-transmissive electrode, or a transmissive electrode. The material for forming the first electrode 11 may be indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), tin oxide (SnO2), and zinc oxide (ZnO). In various embodiments, metals, such as magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), aluminum-lithium (Al-Li), calcium (Ca), magnesium-indium (Mg-In), and magnesium-silver (Mg-Ag), may be used as the material for forming the first electrode 11.

[0117] The first electrode 11 may have a single-layered structure or a multi-layered structure including two or more layers. For example, the first electrode 11 may have a three-layered structure of ITO/Ag/ITO, but the structure of the first electrode 11 is not limited thereto.

[0118] The organic layer 15 may be disposed on the first electrode 11.

[0119] The organic layer 15 may include a hole transport region, an emission layer; and an electron transport region.

[0120] The hole transport region may be disposed between the first electrode 11 and the emission layer.

[0121] The hole transport region may include at least one selected from a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, and a buffer layer.

[0122] The hole transport region may include only either a hole injection layer or a hole transport layer. In various embodiments, the hole transport region may have a structure of hole injection layer/hole transport layer, a structure of hole injection layer/hole transport layer/electron blocking layer, or a structure of hole transport layer/electron blocking layer, wherein the layers of each structure are sequentially stacked from the first electrode 11 in the stated order.

[0123] When hole transport region includes a hole injection layer, the hole injection layer may be formed on the first electrode 11 by using one or more suitable methods selected from vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, and Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) deposition.

[0124] When the hole injection layer is formed using vacuum deposition, the deposition conditions may vary according to a material that is used to form the hole injection layer to be deposited, and the structure and thermal characteristics of the hole injection layer to be formed. For example, the deposition conditions may include a deposition temperature of about 100°C to about 500°C, a vacuum pressure of about 10-8 torr to about 10-3 torr, and a deposition rate of about 0.001 nm/sec to about 10 nm/sec (about 0.01 Å/sec to about 100 Å/sec), but the deposition conditions are not limited thereto.

[0125] When the hole injection layer is formed using spin coating, the coating conditions may vary depending on a material that is used to form the hole injection layer to be deposited, and the structure and thermal characteristics of the hole injection layer to be formed. For example, a coating speed may be from about 2,000 revolutions per minute (rpm) to about 5,000 rpm and a temperature at which a heat treatment is performed to remove a solvent after coating may be from about 80°C to about 200°C, but the coating conditions are not limited thereto.

[0133] In Formula 201A, R101, R111, R112, and R109 are each independently the same as defined herein.

[0134] For example, the compound represented by Formula 201 and the compound represented by Formula 202 may each be selected from Compounds HT1 to HT20, but embodiments are not limited thereto:















[0135] A thickness of the hole transport region may be in a range of about 10 nm to aobut 1,00 nm (about 100 Å to about 10,000 Å), for example, about 10 nm to about 100 nm (about 100 Å to about 1,000 Å). When the hole transport region includes at least one of a hole injection layer and a hole transport layer, a thickness of the hole injection layer may be in a range of about 10 nm to about 1,000 nm (about 100 Å to about 10,000 Å), for example, about 10 nm to about 100 nm (about 100 Å to about 1,000 Å), and a thickness of the hole transport layer may be in a range of about 5 nm to about 200 nm (about 50 Å to about 2,000 Å), for example, about 10 nm to about 150 nm (about 100 Å to about 1,500 Å). While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is understood that when the thicknesses of the hole transport region, the hole injection layer, and the hole transport layer are within these ranges, satisfactory hole transporting characteristics may be obtained without a substantial increase in driving voltage.

[0136] The hole transport region may further include, in addition to these materials, a charge-generation material for improving conductive properties. The charge-generation material may be homogeneously or non-homogeneously dispersed in the hole transport region.

[0138] The hole transport region may further include a buffer layer.

[0139] The buffer layer may compensate for an optical resonance distance according to a wavelength of light emitted from the emission layer, and thus, the efficiency of a formed organic light-emitting device may be improved.

[0140] The emission layer may be formed on the hole transport region by using one or more suitable methods selected from vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, and LB deposition. When the emission layer is formed using vacuum deposition and spin coating, the deposition and coating conditions for the emission layer may be similar with those for forming the hole injection layer, although deposition and coating conditions may vary according to a material that is used to form the emission layer.

[0141] The hole transport region may further include an electron blocking layer. The electron blocking layer may include a known compound, such as mCP, but embodiments are not limited thereto:



[0142] A thickness of the electron blocking layer may be in a range of about 5 nm to about 100 nm (about 50 Å to about 1,000 Å), for example, about 7 nm to about 50 nm (about 70 Å to about 500 Å). While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is understood that when the thickness of the electron blocking layer is within these ranges, satisfactory electron blocking characteristics may be obtained without a substantial increase in driving voltage.

[0143] When the organic light-emitting device 10 is a full color organic light-emitting device, the emission layer may be patterned into a red emission layer, a green emission layer, and a blue emission layer. In various embodiments, the emission layer may have a stacked structure including a red emission layer, a green emission layer and/or a blue emission layer, thereby emitting light.

[0144] The emission layer may include the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C.

[0145] For example, the emission layer may only include the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C.

[0146] In various embodiments, the emission layer may include the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C, and may further include:
  1. i) the second compound (for example, the compound represented by Formula H-1);
  2. ii) the organometallic compound represented by Formula 81; or
  3. iii) any combination of i) and ii).


[0147] The condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C, the second compound, and the organometallic compound represented by Formula 81 are each independently the same as defined herein.

[0148] In an embodiment,

[0149] In various embodiments, the emission layer may include a host and a dopant, wherein
  1. i) the host may include the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C, and the dopant may include the organometallic compound represented by Formula 81;
  2. ii) the host may include the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C and the second compound (for example, the compound represented by Formula H-1), and a known dopant; or
  3. iii) the host may include the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C and the second compound (for example, the compound represented by Formula H-1), and the dopant may include the organometallic compound represented by Formula 81, but embodiments are not limited thereto.


[0150] When the emission layer includes a host and a dopant, an amount of the dopant may be in a range of about 0.01 to about 20 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the emission layer, but embodiments are not limited thereto. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is understood that when the amount of the dopant is within the range above, emission may be implemented without a quenching phenomenon.

[0151] In various embodiments, when the emission layer includes the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C and the second compound, weight ratios of the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C and the second compound may be selected from ranges of 1:99 to 99:1, for example, ranges of 70:30 to 30:70. In various embodiments, the weight ratios of the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C and the second compound may be selected from ranges of 60:40 to 40:60. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is understood that when the weight ratio of the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1B or 1C and the second compound in the emission layer is within any of these ranges, the charge transport balance may be efficiently achieved in the emission layer.

[0152] A thickness of the emission layer may be in a range of about 10 nm to about 100 nm (about 100 Å to about 1,000 Å), for example, about 20 nm to about 60 nm (about 200 Å to about 600 Å). While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is understood that when the thickness of the emission layer is within any of these ranges, excellent light-emission characteristics may be obtained without a substantial increase in driving voltage.

[0153] Next, an electron transport region may be disposed on the emission layer.

[0154] The electron transport region may include at least one selected from a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron injection layer.
