A glass substrate coated with ITO (Indium tin oxide) was washed with distilled water. After washing with the distilled water, the glass substrate was washed with a solvent such as isopropyl alcohol, acetone, methanol, and the like ultrasonically 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 doped with 1% NDP-9 (available from Novaled) was vacuum-deposited on the ITO substrate to form a 1400 Å-thick hole transport layer, and Compound B was deposited on the hole transport layer to form a 600 Å-thick hole transport auxiliary layer. On the hole transport auxiliary layer, a 400 Å-thick light emitting layer was formed by vacuum-depositing Compound 1-1 and Compound 2-6 simultaneously as a host simultaneously and doping 2 wt % of [Ir(piq)2acac] as a dopant. Herein, Compound 1-1 and Compound 2-6 were used in a weight ratio of 5:5. Subsequently, Compound C was deposited on the light emitting layer to form a 50 Å-thick electron transport auxiliary layer, and Compound D and LiQ were simultaneously vacuum deposited at a ratio of 1:1 to form a 300 Å-thick electron transport layer. On the electron transport layer, LiQ and Al were sequentially vacuum-deposited to be 15 Å thick and 1200 Å thick, manufacturing an organic light emitting diode having the following structure.
ITO/Compound A (1% NDP-9 doping, 1400 Å)/Compound B (600 Å)/EML [Compound 1-1 50%: Compound 2-6 50% : [Ir(piq)2acac] (2 wt %)] (400 Å)/Compound C (50 Å)/Compound D: Liq (300 Å)/LiQ (15 Å)/Al (1200 Å).
Compound A: N-(biphenyl-4-yl)-9,9-dimethyl-N-(4-(9-phenyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl)phenyl)-9H-fluoren-2-amine
Compound B: N,N-di([1,1′-biphenyl]-4-yl)-7,7-dimethyl-7H-fluoreno[4,3-b]benzofuran-10-amine
Compound C: 2-(3-(3-(9,9-dimethyl-9H-fluoren-2-yl)phenyl)phenyl)-4,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-triazine
Compound D: 8-(4-(4,6-di(naphthalen-2-yl)-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)phenyl)quinoline
Diodes of Examples 2 to 15, and Comparative Examples 1 to 8 were manufactured in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the host was changed as described in Table 4.
Life-span characteristics of the organic light emitting diodes according to Examples 1 to 15, and Comparative Examples 1 to 8 were evaluated. Specific measurement methods are as follows, and the results are shown in Table 4.
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.
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.
The luminous efficiency (cd/A) of the same current density (10 mA/cm2) was calculated using the luminance and current density measured from (1) and (2) above.
The results were obtained by measuring a time when current efficiency (cd/A) was decreased down to 90%, while luminance (cd/m2) was maintained to be 6,000 cd/m2.
The relative comparison values with the T90(h) life-span measurement value of Comparative Example 1 are shown in Table 4.
Referring to Table 4, the compounds according to the present invention has significantly improved life-span compared to the comparative compounds.
While this invention has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be practical embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
