An organic optoelectronic device (organic optoelectronic diode) is a device that converts electrical energy into photoenergy, and vice versa.


An organic optoelectronic device may be classified as follows in accordance with its driving principles. One is a photoelectric device where excitons generated by photoenergy are separated into electrons and holes and the electrons and holes are transferred to different electrodes respectively and electrical energy is generated, and the other is a light emitting device to generate photoenergy from electrical energy by supplying a voltage or a current to electrodes.

The first compound has a structure in which benzocarbazole is substituted with amine, thereby expanding a HOMO electron cloud from amine to benzocarbazole and thus has high HOMO energy, and excellent hole injection and transport characteristics.

(Manufacture of Organic Light Emitting Diode)
Example 1

A glass substrate coated with ITO (Indium tin oxide) with a thickness of 1500 Å was washed with distilled water ultrasonically. 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 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, Compound C-1 was vacuum-deposited to form a 400 Å-thick hole transport auxiliary layer. On the hole transport auxiliary layer, 400 Å-thick light emitting layer was formed by using Compounds A-2 and B-31 simultaneously as a host and doping 2 wt % of [Ir(piq)2acac] as a dopant by a vacuum-deposition. Herein Compound A-2 and Compound B-31 were used in a weight ratio of 5:5 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 1200 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-2: B-31:[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

Examples 2 to 12 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3

Each organic light emitting diode was manufactured according to the same method as Example 1 except for changing compositions as shown in Table 1.


Evaluation

Power efficiency of the organic light emitting diodes according to Examples 1 to 12 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 was 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 9000 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.
