In Chemical Formula 1 and Chemical Formula 2,


X1 may be, e.g., O or S,


adjacent two of a1* to a4* may be C linked with b1* and b2* respectively,


the remainders (e.g., the other two of) of a1* to a4* not linked with b1* and b2* may each independently be, e.g., C-La-Ra,


La and L1 to L4 may each independently be or include, e.g., a single bond, a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C20 arylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C20 heterocyclic group, or a combination thereof, and


Ra and R1 to R6 may each independently be or include, e.g., hydrogen, deuterium, a cyano group, a substituted or unsubstituted amine group, a substituted or unsubstituted C1 to C30 alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C30 aryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C30 heterocyclic group, or a combination thereof.

In Chemical Formula a,


Lb and Lc may each independently be or include, e.g., a single bond, a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C20 arylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C20 heterocyclic group, or a combination thereof.


Rb and Rc may each independently be or include, e.g., a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C30 aryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C30 heterocyclic group, or a combination thereof (e.g., a monovalent group of a fused ring represented by a combination of Chemical Formula 1 and Chemical Formula 2).


* is a linking point with L1 to L4.


The first compound may have a structure of an amine (substituted with an aryl group and/or a heteroaryl group) linked to a fused heterocycle of 6 membered ring-5 membered ring-6 membered ring-5 membered ring-6 membered ring and may have high HOMO energy. For example, a HOMO electron cloud may expand from the amine to the fused heterocycle, and the compound may exhibit excellent hole injection and transfer characteristics.


In addition, the fused heterocycle of 6 membered ring-5 membered ring-6 membered ring-5 membered ring-6 membered ring may have relatively high HOMO energy compared with bicarbazole and indolocarbazole, and a device having a low driving voltage may be realized by applying the structure of the amine linked to the fused heterocycle.


In addition, bicarbazole and indolocarbazole may have high T1 energy and may not be appropriate or suitable as a red host. In contrast, the structure of the amine linked to the fused heterocycle (e.g., according to an embodiment) may have appropriate T1 energy as a red host.


The first compound may include the fused heterocycle and may exhibit a decreased symmetry in the molecule, and crystallization among the compounds may be suppressed. For example, a dark spot generated due to the crystallization of the compounds during deposition of a material in a process of manufacturing a device may be suppressed, and accordingly, a life-span of the device may be improved.


For example, a device manufactured with the first compound according to an embodiment may realize high efficiency/long life-span characteristics.


In an implementation, the first compound may be included with the second compound, may exhibit satisfactory interface characteristics and transportation capability of holes and electrons and accordingly, and may lower a driving voltage of a device manufactured by applying the same.

For example, Rb and/or Rc may be a monovalent group that is a fused combination of a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C30 aryl group and a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C30 heterocyclic group that forms a monovalent fused ring group of the compound represented by a combination of Chemical Formula 1 and Chemical Formula 2. For example, Rb and/or Rc may be a monovalent group of a fused heterocycle of 6 membered ring-5 membered ring-6 membered ring-5 membered ring-6 membered ring. For example, a hydrogen of the combination of Chemical Formula 1 and Chemical Formula 2 may be replaced with a bonding location to Lb, Lc, and/or N in order to form a monovalent group for Rb and/or Rc.

(Manufacture of Organic Light Emitting Diode)


Example 1

A glass substrate coated with ITO (indium tin oxide) as a 1,500 Å-thick thin film was washed with distilled water. After washing with the distilled water, the glass substrate was ultrasonic wave-washed with isopropyl alcohol, acetone, or methanol, and dried and then, moved to a plasma cleaner, cleaned by using oxygen plasma for 10 minutes, and moved to a vacuum depositor. This obtained ITO transparent electrode was used as an anode, Compound A was vacuum-deposited on the ITO substrate to form a 700 Å-thick hole injection layer, and Compound B was deposited to be 50 Å-thick on the injection layer, and then Compound C was deposited to be 700 Å-thick to form a hole transport layer. On the hole transport layer, a 400 Å-thick hole transport auxiliary layer was formed by vacuum-depositing Compound C-1. On the hole transport auxiliary layer, 400 Å-thick light emitting layer was formed by using Compounds A-51 and B-35 simultaneously as a host and doping 2 wt % of [Ir(piq)2acac] as a dopant by a vacuum-deposition. Herein Compound A-51 and Compound B-35 were used in a weight ratio of 7:3 and their ratios in the following Examples were separately provided. Subsequently, on the light emitting layer, a 300 Å-thick electron transport layer was formed by simultaneously vacuum-depositing Compound D and Liq in a ratio of 1:1, and on the electron transport layer, Liq and Al were sequentially vacuum-deposited to be 15 Å-thick and 1,200 Å-thick, manufacturing an organic light emitting diode.


The organic light emitting diode had a five-layered organic thin layer, and specifically the following structure.


ITO/Compound A (700 Å)/Compound B (50 Å)/Compound C (700 Å)/Compound C-1 (400 Å)/EML [Compound A-51: B-35: [Ir(piq)2acac] (2 wt %)] (400 Å)/Compound D: Liq (300 Å)/Liq (15 Å)/Al (1200 Å).


Compound A: N4,N4′-diphenyl-N4,N4′-bis(9-phenyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl)biphenyl-4,4′-diamine


Compound B: 1,4,5,8,9,11-hexaazatriphenylene-hexacarbonitrile (HAT-CN)


Compound C: N-(biphenyl-4-yl)-9,9-dimethyl-N-(4-(9-phenyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl)phenyl)-9H-fluoren-2-amine


Compound C-1: N,N-di([1,1′-biphenyl]-4-yl)-7,7-dimethyl-7H-fluoreno[4,3-b]benzofuran-10-amine

Evaluation


Power efficiency of the organic light emitting diodes according to Examples 1 to 15 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were evaluated.


Specific measurement methods are as follows, and the results are shown in Table 2.


(1) Measurement of Current Density Change Depending on Voltage Change


The obtained organic light emitting diodes were measured regarding a current value flowing in the unit device, while increasing the voltage from 0 V to 10 V using a current-voltage meter (Keithley 2400), and the measured current value was divided by area to provide the results.


(2) Measurement of Luminance Change Depending on Voltage Change


Luminance was measured by using a luminance meter (Minolta Cs-1000A), while the voltage of the organic light emitting diodes was increased from 0 V to 10 V.


(3) Measurement of Power Efficiency


Power efficiency (cd/A) at the same current density (10 mA/cm2) were calculated by using the luminance, current density, and voltages (V) from the items (1) and (2).


(4) Measurement of Life-Span


The results were obtained by measuring a time when current efficiency (cd/A) was decreased down to 97%, while luminance (cd/m2) was maintained to be 9,000 cd/m2.


(5) Measurement of Driving Voltage


A driving voltage of each diode was measured using a current-voltage meter (Keithley 2400) at 15 mA/cm2.
