CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

BACKGROUND

1. Field

[0001] One or more embodiments relate to an amine-based compound and an organic light-emitting device comprising the same.

2. Description of the Related Art

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

[0003] OLEDs may comprise a first electrode disposed on a substrate, and may comprise a hole transport region, an emission layer, an electron transport region, and a second electrode sequentially disposed on the first electrode. Holes provided from the first electrode may move toward the emission layer through the hole transport region. Electrons provided from the second electrode may move toward the emission layer through the electron transport region. Carriers, such as holes and electrons, may recombine in the emission layer to produce excitons. These excitons transit from an excited state to a ground state to thereby generate light.

SUMMARY

[0004] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an organic light-emitting device according to claim 1.

[0057] The amine-based compound represented by one of Formulae 1A and 1B has a structure in which nitrogen (N) is bound to a substituent represented by Formula 1A', and thus the compound may have a molecular structure having a large steric hindrance. Accordingly, the amine-based compound may maintain optimum intermolecular density. Further, the amine-based compound may have excellent hole transportability due to the increased interaction of an unshared electron pair of oxygen (O), which is relatively sterically exposed:

[0058] Furthermore, the amine-based compound comprises an amine group in a molecule. Thus, the amine-based compound may have a suitable energy level, as compared with a compound comprising at least two amine groups. Accordingly, the amine-based compound may have improved hole mobility due to reduced hole transport barrier and hole injection barrier.

[0059] Therefore, an electronic device, e.g., an organic light-emitting device, employing the amine-based compound may have a low driving voltage, high efficiency, and long lifespan.

[0060] Methods of synthesizing the amine-based compound represented by one of Formulae 1A and 1B and 1D should be readily apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art by referring to Examples described herein.

[0061] Accordingly, there is provided an organic light-emitting device comprising a first electrode; a second electrode facing the first electrode; and an organic layer between the first electrode and the second electrode, wherein the organic layer comprises an emission layer and at least one amine-based compound represented by Formula 1D.

[0062] As used herein, the expression "(for example, the organic layer) comprising at least one amine-based compound" refers to that "(the organic layer) comprising an amine-based compound represented by one of Formulae 1A and 1B, or at least two different amine-based compounds represented by one of Formulae 1A and 1B".

[0063] For example, the organic layer may contain only Compound 1 as the amine-based compound. In this embodiment, Compound 1 may be contained in the emission layer of the organic light-emitting device. In some embodiments, the organic layer may contain Compounds 1 and 2 as the amine-based compounds. In this embodiment, Compounds 1 and 2 may be present in the same layer (for example, Compounds 1 and 2 may be both present in an emission layer), or in different layers (for example, Compound 1 may be present in an emission layer, and Compound 2 may be present in an electron transport layer).

[0064] In some embodiments, the first electrode may be an anode, the second electrode may be a cathode, and the organic layer may further comprise a hole transport region between the first electrode and the emission layer and an electron transport region between the emission layer and the second electrode, wherein the hole transport region may comprise a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an emission auxiliary layer, an electron blocking layer, or a combination thereof, and the electron transport region may comprise a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injection layer, or a combination thereof.

[0065] In some embodiments, the hole transport region may comprise the amine-based compound.

[0066] In some embodiments, the hole transport region may comprise a hole injection layer and a hole transport layer, wherein at least one of the hole injection layer and the hole transport layer may comprise the amine-based compound.

[0067] In some embodiments, the hole transport region may comprise a hole transport layer, wherein the hole transport layer may comprise the amine-based compound.

[0068] In some embodiments, examples of the p-dopant may include at least one selected from a quinone derivative, a metal oxide, and a cyano group-containing compound.

[0069] In some embodiments, the hole transport region may comprise a hole injection layer comprising the p-dopant.

[0070] The term "organic layer" as used herein refers to a single and/or a plurality of layers between the first electrode and the second electrode in an organic light-emitting device. A material comprised in the "organic layer" is not limited to an organic material.

Examples

Comparative Example 1

[0330] A Corning 15 Ohms per square centimeter (Ω/cm²) (1,200 Å) ITO glass substrate was cut to a size of 50 millimeters (mm)×50 mm×0.7 mm, sonicated in isopropyl alcohol and pure water for 5 minutes in each solvent, and cleaned by exposure to ultraviolet rays and ozone for 30 minutes to utilize the glass substrate as an anode. Then, the glass substrate was mounted to a vacuum-deposition apparatus.

[0331] 2-TNATA was vacuum-deposited on the glass substrate to form a hole injection layer having a thickness of 600 Å. Thereafter, 4,4'-bis[N-(1-naphthyl)-N-phenylamino]biphenyl (hereinafter referred to as "NPB"), which is a hole transport material, as a hole transporting compound was vacuum-deposited on the hole injection layer to form a hole transport layer having a thickness of 300 Å.

[0332] 9,10-di(naphthalen-2-yl)anthracene (hereinafter referred to as "DNA"), which is a known blue fluorescent host, and 4,4'-bis[2-(4-(N,N-diphenylamino)phenyl)vinyl]biphenyl (hereinafter referred to as "DPAVBi"), which is a known blue fluorescent dopant, were co-deposited on the hole transport layer in a weight ratio of about 98:2 to form an emission layer having a thickness of 300 Å.

[0333] Subsequently, Alq₃ was deposited on the emission layer to form an electron transport layer having a thickness of 300 Å. Subsequently, LiF, which is halogenated alkali metal, was deposited on the electron transport layer to form an electron injection layer having a thickness of 10 Å. Finally, Al was vacuum-deposited on the electron injection layer to form a cathode having a thickness of 3,000 Å to form a LiF/Al electrode, thereby completing the manufacture of an organic light-emitting device.

Comparative Example 9

[0343] An organic light-emitting device was manufactured in substantially the same manner as in Comparative Example 1, except that Compound H was utilized instead of NPB in the formation of a hole transport layer.

[0344] The performances (driving voltage, luminance, efficiency, and color-coordinate) of the organic light-emitting devices manufactured in Examples 1 to 28 and Comparative Examples 1 to 9 while driving at a current density of 50 mA/cm² were evaluated. The half lifespan was also measured at a current density of 100 mA/cm², which indicates time (hour) for the luminance of each organic light-emitting device to decline to 50% of its initial luminance. The evaluation results are shown in Table 3.

[0345] The luminance was measured utilizing a luminance meter PR650 powered by a current voltmeter (Keithley SMU 236).
