n may be a real number satisfying 0<n<1, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.


In one embodiment, the perovskite compound may be in the form of a nano particle, a nanowire, a nanolayer, a multi-layer nanolayer, a micro particle, a microwire, a microlayer, or a multi-layer microlayer.


The energy bandgap and the maximum emission wavelength of the perovskite may be adjusted by adjusting the shape or size of the perovskite compound. For example, the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 may variously control the maximum emission wavelength emitted by the perovskite compound by controlling i) the average grain size or ii) a composition ratio.


For example, the maximum emission wavelength may be controlled by controlling the type (that is, the grain size) and the composition ratio of one of A, B1, B2, and X. In one embodiment, even when the types and the composition ratios of A and X among A, B1, B2, and X are identical to each other, the maximum emission wavelength emitted by the perovskite compound may be controlled by controlling the types or the composition ratios of B1 and B2. In one embodiment, even when the types and the composition ratios of B1, B2, and X among A, B1, B2, and X are identical to each other, the maximum emission wavelength emitted by the perovskite compound may be controlled by controlling the type or the composition ratio of A. In one or more embodiments, even when the types and the composition ratios of A, B1, and B2 among A, B1, B2, and X are identical to each other, the maximum emission wavelength emitted by the perovskite compound may be controlled by controlling the type or the composition ratio of X.


n1 and n2 in Formulae 1 to 4 may not be 0. That is, the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 may essentially include Sm2+. Since Sm2+ has an ion radius similar to that of Pb2+ used in a conventional perovskite compound, the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 has a Goldschmidt's tolerance factor of about 1 and has a stable cubic structure. Therefore, although not limited by a particular theory, high quantum yields may be obtained by a quantum confinement effect.


Therefore, for example, a thin film including the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 may have high photoluminescence (PL) quantum yields (PLQY) and a small full width at half maximum (FWHM), and a light-emitting device including the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 may have excellent external quantum efficiency and light efficiency.


Another aspect provides a thin film (thin layer) including the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4.


The perovskite compound included in the thin film is the same as described above.


The thin film may be synthesized by a known synthesis method. Hereinafter, the synthesis method of the thin film including the perovskite compound will be described in detail.


The thin film may be manufactured by providing an A-containing precursor, a B1-containing precursor, and a B2-containing precursor on a predetermined substrate (for example, a region in which the thin film is to be formed) and performing thermal treatment thereon to form the thin film including the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4.


The description of A, B1, and B2 in the A-containing precursor, the B1-containing precursor, and the B2-containing precursor is the same as the description of A, B1, and B2 in Formulae 1 to 4.


The A-containing precursor may be selected from halides of A (for example, (A)(X1)), the B1-containing precursor may be selected from halides of B1 (for example, (B1)(X2)2), and the B2-containing precursor may be selected from halides of B2 (for example, (B2)(X3)2). In (A)(X1), (B1)(X2)2, and (B2)(X3)2, A, B1, and B2 are the same as described above, and X1 to X3 may each independently be selected from —F, —Cl, —Br, and —I.


In one embodiment, the A-containing precursor may be CH3NH3I, the B1-containing precursor may be SmI2, and the B2-containing precursor may be EuI2, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.


In one embodiment, the thin film including the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 may be manufactured by providing an A-containing precursor, a B1-containing precursor, and a B2-containing precursor on a predetermined substrate and simultaneously performing thermal treatment thereon to form the thin film including the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 (that is, one-step method).


In one or more embodiments, the thin film including the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 may be manufactured by providing an A-containing precursor, a B1-containing precursor, and a B2-containing precursor on a predetermined substrate to form a precursor-containing film, and performing thermal treatment on the precursor-containing film to form the thin film including the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 (that is, two-step method).


The thermal treatment condition in the thin film manufacturing method may be selected under different conditions according to whether A in the A-precursor includes a monovalent inorganic cation.


For example, i) when A does not include a monovalent inorganic cation, the thermal treatment condition in the thin film manufacturing method may be selected in a time range of about 15 minutes to about 1 hour and in a temperature range of about 100° C. to 400° C., and ii) when A includes a monovalent inorganic cation, the thermal condition in the thin film manufacturing method may be selected in a time range of about 2 hours to 48 hours and a temperature range of about 400° C. to about 800° C., but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.


In addition, various modifications may be possible. For example, the thin film including the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 may be manufactured by providing a mixture including the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 on a predetermined substrate and performing thermal treatment thereon.


Another aspect provides an electronic apparatus including the perovskite compound represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4.


In one embodiment, the electronic apparatus may include an optoelectronic device including the perovskite compound, and


the optoelectronic device may be a photovoltaic device, a photodiode, a phototransistor, a photomultiplier, a photo resistor, a photo detector, a light sensitive detector, a solid-state triode, a battery electrode, a light-emitting device, a light-emitting diode, an organic light-emitting device, a quantum dot light-emitting diode, a transistor, a solar cell, a laser, or a diode injection laser.

The perovskite compound is the same as described above.


The description of the organic light-emitting device may be understood by referring to the others of the description of the light-emitting device, except for the description of the quantum dot light-emitting diode.


In one embodiment, the electronic apparatus may be an organic light-emitting display apparatus.



FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an organic light-emitting display apparatus according to an embodiment. FIGS. 3 to 6 are schematic partial enlarged cross-sectional views of organic light-emitting display apparatuses according to embodiments.


Referring to FIG. 2, the organic light-emitting display apparatus 100 according to the embodiment includes a first substrate 110. The first substrate 110 may be a glass substrate or a plastic substrate, each having excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, transparency, surface smoothness, ease of handling, and water resistance. In one embodiment, since the organic light-emitting display apparatus 100 is a top-emission type display apparatus, the first substrate 110 may include iron, chromium, manganese, nickel, titanium, molybdenum, stainless steel, an Invar alloy, an Inconel alloy, a Kovar alloy, or any combination thereof, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.


An organic light-emitting device 120 may be disposed on the first substrate 110. The organic light-emitting device 120 may include: a first electrode; a second electrode facing the first electrode; and an organic layer between the first electrode and the second electrode and including an emission layer. The description of the first electrode, the second electrode, the emission layer, and the organic layer of the organic light-emitting device 120 may be understood by referring to the description of the light-emitting device 10.


For example, the first electrode may be an anode, and the material for forming the first electrode may be selected from materials with a high work function to facilitate hole injection. In addition, the first electrode may be a reflective electrode, and the first electrode may include a material selected from magnesium (Mg), silver (Ag), aluminum (Al), aluminum-lithium (Al—Li), calcium (Ca), magnesium-indium (Mg—In), magnesium-silver (Mg—Ag), and any combination thereof, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.


In one embodiment, the first electrode may include a transparent electrode material such as indium tin oxide (ITO) or indium zinc oxide (IZO).


In one or more embodiments, the first electrode may include a reflective electrode material, such as magnesium (Mg), silver (Ag), aluminum (Al), aluminum-lithium (Al—Li), calcium (Ca), magnesium-indium (Mg—In), magnesium-silver (Mg—Ag), and any combination thereof, and may further include a transparent electrode material such as ITO or IZO.


In one embodiment, the first electrode may have a single-layered structure or a multi-layered structure including a transmissive layer and a reflective layer. For example, the first electrode may have a multi-layered structure of ITO/Ag/ITO.


In addition, the first electrode may further include an inclined surface having a predetermined angle with respect to the first substrate 110 around the first electrode, so that light emitted from the organic layer in the horizontal direction of the organic light-emitting display apparatus illustrated in FIG. 2 travels toward the thin film 130. The inclined surface of the first electrode may be disposed on a pixel defining film. In this case, light emitted from the organic layer may be reflected from the inclined surface of the first electrode and travels toward the thin film 130, thereby improving light efficiency of the organic light-emitting display apparatus.


For example, the organic layer may further include 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.


For example, the second electrode may be a cathode, and a material for forming the second electrode may be selected from a metal, an alloy, an electrical conductive compound, and any combination thereof, which have a low work function. In addition, the second electrode may be a transmissive electrode or a semi-transmissive electrode, and a material for forming the second electrode may be selected from ITO, IZO, tin oxide (SnO2), zinc oxide (ZnO), magnesium (Mg), silver (Ag), aluminum (Al), aluminum-lithium (Al—Li), calcium (Ca), magnesium-indium (Mg—In), magnesium-silver (Mg—Ag), and any combination thereof.


A thin film 130 may be disposed on the organic light-emitting device 120 on at least one traveling direction of light emitted from the organic light-emitting device 120, and the thin film may include the perovskite compound.


The description of the thin film 130 comprising a perovskite compound is the same as described herein.


That the thin film 130 is disposed on at least one traveling direction of the light emitted from the organic light-emitting device 120 does not exclude a case where other elements are further included between the thin film 130 and the organic light-emitting device 120.


A barrier film (not illustrated) may be further included on at least one surface of the thin film 130 so as to prevent contact with oxygen or moisture. Since the light conversion layer includes the barrier film, the perovskite compound that is vulnerable to oxygen and/or moisture may be maintained in a stable state.


For example, the barrier film may be formed on a light incidence surface of the thin film 130 (that is, a surface which absorbs light emitted from the organic light-emitting device 120) and/or a light exit surface of the thin film 130 (that is, a surface from which light exits from the organic light-emitting device 120). In one embodiment, the barrier film may surround the entire thin film 130.


The barrier film may include, for example, polyester, polycarbonate, polyolefin, cyclic olefin copolymer (COC), or polyimide, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.


The barrier film may further include a single-layered or multi-layered inorganic coating layer on the surface thereof. An inorganic material in the inorganic coating layer may include an inorganic oxide, for example, silica, alumina, titania, zirconia, or any combination thereof. Since the inorganic coating layer suppresses penetration of oxygen or moisture, the oxygen and/or moisture blocking function of the barrier film may be further reinforced by the inorganic coating layer.


Referring to FIG. 3, an organic light-emitting device 220 may emit first light, and a thin film 230 may absorb the first light and emit second light. The first light and the second light may have different maximum emission wavelengths.


For example, the maximum emission wavelength of the first light may be less than the maximum emission wavelength of the second light.


In one embodiment, the first light and the second light may be combined to emit white light.


The first light may be blue light, and the second light may be at least one selected from green light, yellow light, and red light, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. For example, the first light may be blue light, and the second light may be yellow light or mixed light of green light and red light, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.


The first light may be ultraviolet (UV) light, the second light may be at least one selected from blue light, green light, and red light, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. For example, the first light may be UV light, and the second light may be mixed light of blue light (for example, light having a wavelength band between about 400 nm to about 490 nm), green light (for example, light having a wavelength band between about 490 nm to about 570 nm), and red light (for example, light having a wavelength band between about 570 nm to about 680 nm), but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.


In one embodiment, the organic light-emitting device may emit blue light or UV light.


For example,


(i) the organic light-emitting device may emit blue light, and


the thin film may include:

For example, the thin film 230 may include a first perovskite compound 231 represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4 and a second perovskite compound 232 represented by one of Formulae 1 to 4. The maximum emission wavelengths of the first and second perovskite compounds may be different by differently adjusting the average grain sizes of the first and second perovskite compounds.


The thin film 230 may be a monolayer film in which the first and second perovskite compounds are uniformly dispersed. The thin film 230 may further include a binder resin 233 in which the first and second perovskite compounds are uniformly dispersed. A mixing ratio of the first and second perovskite compounds is not particularly limited and may be controlled in an appropriate range by taking into account desired optical characteristics.


The binder resin 233 may include, for example, an epoxy resin, a silicone epoxy resin, a silicone resin, a polystyrene resin, a (meth)acrylate resin, or any combination thereof, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.


When the first light is blue light, the first perovskite compound 231 may emit red light, and the second perovskite compound 232 may emit green light. In this case, the average grain size of the first perovskite compound may be greater than the average grain size of the second perovskite compound and may be, for example, about 7 nm to about 10 nm. The average grain size of the second perovskite compound may be, for example, about 5 nm to about 7 nm.


As described above, the average grain size of the perovskite compound may be different according to the type of the monovalent anion used as X. For example, when the monovalent halide anion is used as X, the energy bandgap may be adjusted and the light-emitting characteristics may be changed by changing the halide anion to I, Br, Cl, or the like.

In this case, the blue light emitted from the first perovskite compound, the green light emitted from the second perovskite compound, and the red light emitted from the third perovskite compound may be combined to emit white light.


In one embodiment, the light source may emit UV light, and the light conversion layer may be a monofilm in which a first perovskite compound that absorbs the UV light and emits blue light, a second perovskite compound that absorbs the UV light and/or the blue light and emits green light, and a third perovskite compound that absorbs the UV light, the blue light, and/or the green light and emits red light are uniformly dispersed.

In one embodiment, the light source may emit UV light, and the light conversion layer may include: a first layer including a first perovskite compound that absorbs the UV light and emits blue light; and a second layer including a second perovskite compound that absorbs the UV light and/or the blue light and emits green light and a third perovskite compound that absorbs the UV light, the blue light, and/or the green light and emits red light. In this case, the first layer may be disposed so that at least part of light emitted from the light source is incident on the first layer, and the second layer may be disposed so that light emitted from the light source and passing through the first layer and/or light emitted from the first layer is incident on the second layer. The first layer may be a thin film in which the first perovskite compound is stacked in a monocrystal form, or a thin film including the first perovskite compound in a nanostructure form, and the second layer may be a thin film including the second and third perovskite compounds in a nanostructure form.


In one or more embodiments, the light source may emit UV light, and the light conversion layer may include: a first layer including a first perovskite compound that absorbs the UV light and emits blue light; a second layer including a second perovskite compound that absorbs the UV light and/or the blue light and emits green light; and a third layer including a third perovskite compound that absorbs the UV light, the blue light, and/or the green light and emits red light.

The first layer, the second layer, and the third layer may each independently be a thin film in which the perovskite compound is stacked in a monocrystal form, or a thin film including the perovskite compound in a nonastructure form.


The thicknesses of the layers included in the light conversion layers, the mixing ratios of the perovskite compounds when the light conversion layer includes at least two perovskite compounds, and the like are not particularly limited and may be set in appropriate ranges by taking into account desired optical characteristics.


The layer(s) including the perovskite compound included in the light conversion layer may be synthesized according to a known synthesis method. For example, the layer(s) including the perovskite compound may be synthesized by referring to the synthesis method of the thin film including the perovskite compound.


In one embodiment, the layer(s) including the perovskite compound included in the light conversion layer may be manufactured by providing a mixture including a perovskite compound, which is mixed on a matrix resin, on a predetermined substrate and performing drying or thermal treatment thereon. Various modifications may be made thereto.


In one embodiment, a barrier film may be further included on at least one surface of the light conversion layer so as to prevent contact with oxygen or moisture. Since the light conversion layer includes the barrier film, the perovskite compound may be maintained in a stable state.


For example, the barrier film may be formed on a light incidence surface of the light conversion layer (that is, a surface which absorbs light emitted from the light source) and/or a light exit surface of the light conversion layer (that is, a surface from which light exits from the light conversion layer). In one embodiment, the barrier film may surround the entire light conversion layer.


The barrier film may include, for example, polyester, polycarbonate, polyolefin, cyclic olefin copolymer (COC), or polyimide.


The barrier film may further include a single-layered or multi-layered inorganic coating layer on the surface thereof. An inorganic material in the inorganic coating layer may include an inorganic oxide, for example, silica, alumina, titania, zirconia, or any combination thereof. Since the inorganic coating layer suppresses penetration of oxygen or moisture, the oxygen and/or moisture blocking function of the barrier film may be further reinforced by the inorganic coating layer.


The light conversion layer is disposed so that at least part of light emitted from the light source is incident on the light conversion layer.


That the light conversion layer is disposed so that light emitted from the light source is incident on the light conversion layer does not exclude a case where other means is further included between the light source and the light conversion layer.


Therefore, other means may be further included between the light source and the light conversion layer.


For example, the light source may directly contact the light conversion layer. Therefore, light emitted from the light source may be directly incident on the light conversion layer.


In one embodiment, the light source may be separated from the light conversion layer. For example, the light source may be separated from the light conversion layer, and other means may be included between the light source and the light conversion layer. That other means is included between the light source and the light conversion layer includes a case where the light source faces the light conversion layer and other means is disposed therebetween, and a case where other means is disposed on a traveling path of light emitted from the light source and incident on the light conversion layer.


The means may be, for example, a light guide plate that guides light, a diffusion plate that diffuses light, a predetermined optical sheet that improves optical characteristics such as luminance, a reflective film that reflects light from the light source so as to improve externally extracted optical efficiency, or any combination thereof.
