CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

This application claims a priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2013-0146414, filed on 28 Nov. 2013, and all the benefits accruing therefrom under 35 U.S.C. §119, the content of which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.


BACKGROUND

1. Field


One or more embodiments relate to a condensed cyclic compound and an organic light-emitting device including the same.


2. Description of the Related Art


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


As 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 and further 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, are recombined in the emission layer to produce excitons. These excitons change from an excited state to a ground state, thereby generating light.


Different types of OLEDs have been reported. However, there remains a need in OLEDs having one or more of low driving voltage, high efficiency, high brightness, and long lifespan.


SUMMARY

One or more embodiments relate to a novel condensed cyclic compound and an organic light-emitting device including the same.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout. In this regard, the present embodiments may have different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the descriptions set forth herein. Accordingly, the embodiments are merely described below, by referring to the figures, to explain aspects of the present description. Expressions such as “at least one of,” when preceding a list of elements, modify the entire list of elements and do not modify the individual elements of the list.


It will be understood that when an element is referred to as being “on” another element, it can be directly in contact with the other element or intervening elements may be present therebetween. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directly on” another element, there are no intervening elements present.


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.


The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.


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.


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.


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.

The highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) of the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 may be controlled, and accordingly, an organic light-emitting device including the condensed cyclic compound may achieve high efficiency, long lifespan, and high brightness.


Synthesis methods of the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 are known to one of ordinary skill in the art by referring to Synthesis Examples provided below.


The condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 is suitable for use in an organic layer of an organic light-emitting device, for example, for use as a host in an emission layer of the organic layer. Thus, another aspect provides an organic light-emitting device that includes:


a first electrode;


a second electrode; and


an organic layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode,


wherein the organic layer includes an emission layer and at least one of the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1.


The organic light-emitting device may have, due to the inclusion of an organic layer including the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1, low driving voltage, high efficiency, high brightness, and long lifespan.


The condensed cyclic compound of Formula 1 may be used between a pair of electrodes of an organic light-emitting device. For example, the condensed cyclic compound may be included in at least one layer selected from


i) the emission layer,


ii) a hole transport region (including, for example, at least one of a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, a buffer layer, and an electron blocking layer) that is disposed between the first electrode and the emission layer, and


iii) an electron transport region (including, for example, at least one layer selected from a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron injection layer) that is disposed between the emission layer and the second electrode.


For example, the condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 may be included in the emission layer. In this regard, the emission layer may further include a dopant, and the condensed cyclic compound included in the emission layer may act as a host. The emission layer may be a green emission layer emitting green light, and the dopant may be a phosphorescent dopant.


The expression “(an organic layer) includes at least one condensed cyclic compound” as used herein may include a case in which “(an organic layer) includes one condensed cyclic compound of Formula 1 and a case in which (an organic layer) includes two or more different condensed cyclic compounds of Formula 1.


For example, the organic layer may include, as the condensed cyclic compound, only Compound 1. In this regard, Compound 1 may exist in an emission layer of the organic light-emitting device. In another embodiment, the organic layer may include, as the condensed cyclic compound, Compound 1 and Compound 2. In this regard, Compound 1 and Compound 2 may be situated in either an identical layer (for example, Compound 1 and Compound 2 all may exist in an emission layer), or different layers.


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, or the first electrode may be a cathode, which is an electron injection electrode, or the second electrode may be an anode, which is a hole injection electrode.


For example, the first electrode is an anode, and the second electrode is a cathode, and the organic layer includes


i) a hole transport region that is disposed between the first electrode and the emission layer and includes at least one of a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, and an electron blocking layer, and


ii) an electron transport region that is disposed between the emission layer and the second electrode and includes at least one group selected from a hole blocking layer, an electron transport layer, and an electron injection layer.


The term “organic layer” as used herein refers to a single layer and/or a plurality of layers disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode of an organic light-emitting device. The “organic layer” may include, in addition to an organic compound, an organometallic complex including metal.



FIG. 1 is a schematic 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 FIG. 1, 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 transparent plastic substrate, each with excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, transparency, surface smoothness, ease of handling, and water repellency.


The first electrode 11 may be formed by depositing or sputtering a material for forming the first electrode on the substrate. The first electrode 11 may be an anode. The material for the first electrode 11 may be selected from materials with a high work function to facilitate the injection of holes. The first electrode 13 may be a reflective electrode or a transmissive electrode. The material for the first electrode 11 may be an indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), tin oxide (SnO2), or zinc oxide (ZnO). According to another embodiment, the material for the first electrode 11 may be metal, such as magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), aluminum-lithium (Al—Li), calcium (Ca), magnesium-indium (Mg—In), or magnesium-silver (Mg—Ag).


The first electrode 11 may have a single-layer structure or a multi-layer 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 110 is not limited thereto.


An organic layer 15 is disposed on the first electrode 11.


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


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


The hole transport region may include at least one of a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron blocking layer, and a buffer layer.


The hole transport region may include only either a hole injection layer or a hole transport layer. According to another embodiment, the hole transport region may have a structure of hole injection layer/hole transport layer or hole injection layer/hole transport layer/electron blocking layer, which are sequentially stacked in this stated order from the first electrode 11.


When the hole injection layer (hole injection layer) includes a hole injection layer, the hole injection layer may be formed on the first electrode 11 by using any one of various methods known to one of ordinary skill in the art, for example, vacuum deposition, spin coating, casting, or Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) deposition.


When a hole injection layer is formed by vacuum deposition, the deposition conditions may vary according to a material that is used to form the hole injection layer, and the structure and thermal characteristics of the hole injection layer. For example, the deposition conditions may include a deposition temperature of about 100 to about 500° C., a vacuum pressure of about 10−8 to about 10−3 torr, and a deposition rate of about 0.01 to about 100 Angstroms per second (A/sec). However, the deposition conditions are not limited thereto.


When the hole injection layer is formed using spin coating, coating conditions may vary according to the material used to form the hole injection layer, and the structure and thermal properties of the hole injection layer. 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. However, the coating conditions are not limited thereto.


Conditions for a hole transport layer and an electron blocking layer may be understood by referring to conditions for forming the hole injection layer.
