Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

This application claims priority to and the benefits of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2020-0130104, filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Oct. 8, 2020, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.


The present specification relates to a heterocyclic compound, and an organic light emitting device comprising the same.


BACKGROUND ART

An organic electroluminescent device is one type of self-emissive display devices, and has an advantage of having a wide viewing angle, and a high response speed as well as having an excellent contrast.


An organic light emitting device has a structure disposing an organic thin film between two electrodes. When a voltage is applied to an organic light emitting device having such a structure, electrons and holes injected from the two electrodes bind and pair in the organic thin film, and light emits as these annihilate. The organic thin film may be formed in a single layer or a multilayer as necessary.


A material of the organic thin film may have a light emitting function as necessary. For example, as a material of the organic thin film, compounds capable of forming a light emitting layer themselves alone may be used, or compounds capable of performing a role of a host or a dopant of a host-dopant-based light emitting layer may also be used. In addition thereto, compounds capable of performing roles of hole injection, hole transfer, electron blocking, hole blocking, electron transfer, electron injection and the like may also be used as a material of the organic thin film.


Development of an organic thin film material has been continuously required for enhancing performance, lifetime or efficiency of an organic light emitting device.


Studies on an organic light emitting device comprising a compound capable of satisfying conditions required for materials usable in an organic light emitting device, for example, satisfying proper energy level, electrochemical stability, thermal stability and the like, and having a chemical structure capable of performing various roles required in an organic light emitting device depending on substituents have been required.

MODE FOR DISCLOSURE

Hereinafter, the present application will be described in detail.


In the present specification, a “case of a substituent being not indicated in a chemical formula or compound structure” means that a hydrogen atom bonds to a carbon atom. However, since deuterium (2H) is an isotope of hydrogen, some hydrogen atoms may be deuterium.


In one embodiment of the present application, a “case of a substituent being not indicated in a chemical formula or compound structure” may mean that positions that may come as a substituent may all be hydrogen or deuterium. In other words, since deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen, some hydrogen atoms may be deuterium that is an isotope, and herein, a content of the deuterium may be from 0% to 100%.


In one embodiment of the present application, in a “case of a substituent being not indicated in a chemical formula or compound structure”, hydrogen and deuterium may be mixed in compounds when deuterium is not explicitly excluded such as a deuterium content being 0% or a hydrogen content being 100%. In other words, an expression of “substituent X is hydrogen” does not exclude deuterium unlike a hydrogen content being 100% or a deuterium content being 0%, and therefore, may mean a state in which hydrogen and deuterium are mixed.


In one embodiment of the present application, deuterium is one of isotopes of hydrogen, is an element having deuteron formed with one proton and one neutron as a nucleus, and may be expressed as hydrogen-2, and the elemental symbol may also be written as D or 2H.


In one embodiment of the present application, an isotope means an atom with the same atomic number (Z) but with a different mass number (A), and may also be interpreted as an element with the same number of protons but with a different number of neutrons.


In one embodiment of the present application, a meaning of a content T % of a specific substituent may be defined as T2/T1×100=T % when the total number of substituents that a basic compound may have is defined as T1, and the number of specific substituents among these is defined as T2.


In other words, in one example, having a deuterium content of 20% in a phenyl group represented by

means that the total number of substituents that the phenyl group may have is 5 (T1 in the formula), and the number of deuterium among these is 1 (T2 in the formula). In other words, having a deuterium content of 20% in a phenyl group may be represented by the following structural formulae.

<Experimental Example 1>—Manufacture of Organic Light Emitting Device

1) Manufacture of Organic Light Emitting Device


A glass substrate on which indium tin oxide (ITO) was coated as a thin film to a thickness of 1,500 Å was cleaned with distilled water ultrasonic waves. After the cleaning with distilled water was finished, the substrate was ultrasonic cleaned with solvents such as acetone, methanol and isopropyl alcohol, then dried, and UVO (ultraviolet ozone) treatment was conducted for 5 minutes using UV in a UV (ultraviolet) cleaner. After that, the substrate was transferred to a plasma cleaner (PT), and after conducting plasma treatment under vacuum for ITO work function and residual film removal, the substrate was transferred to a thermal deposition apparatus for organic deposition.


On the transparent ITO electrode (anode), a hole injection layer 2-TNATA (4,4′,4″-tris[2-naphthyl (phenyl)amino]triphenylamine) and a hole transfer layer NPB (N,N′-di(1-naphthyl)-N,N′-diphenyl-(1,1′-biphenyl)-4,4′-diamine), which are common layers, were formed.


A light emitting layer was thermal vacuum deposited thereon as follows. Specifically, the light emitting layer was deposited to a thickness of 500 Å using each compound described in Examples 1 to 42 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 of the following Table 10 as a red host of the light emitting layer, and doping (piq)2(Ir) (acac), a red phosphorescent dopant, by 3 wt % to the red host. After that, bathocuproine (hereinafter, BCP) was deposited to 60 Å as a hole blocking layer, and Alq3 was deposited to 200 Å thereon as an electron transfer layer.


Lastly, an electron injection layer was formed on the electron transfer layer by depositing lithium fluoride (LiF) to a thickness of 10 Å, and then a cathode was formed on the electron injection layer by depositing an aluminum (Al) cathode to a thickness of 1,200 Å, and as a result, an organic light emitting device was manufactured.


Meanwhile, all the organic compounds required to manufacture the OLED were vacuum sublimation purified under 10−8 torr to 10−6 torr for each material to be used in the OLED manufacture.


2) Driving Voltage and Light Emission Efficiency of Organic Light Emitting Device


For each of the organic light emitting devices of Examples 1 to 42 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 manufactured as above, electroluminescent (EL) properties were measured using M7000 manufactured by McScience Inc., and with the measurement results, T90 was measured when standard luminance was 6,000 cd/m2 through a lifetime measurement system (M6000) manufactured by McScience Inc. T90 means a lifetime (unit: h, time), time taken to become 90% with respect to initial luminance.

The heterocyclic compound according to the present application has proper molecular weight and band gap to be used in a light emitting layer of an organic light emitting device while having high thermal stability. A proper molecular weight facilitates formation of a light emitting layer of an organic light emitting device, and a proper band gap prevents loss of electrons and holes in the light emitting layer helping with effective formation of a recombination zone.


In other words, it was identified that, in the compound having an arylamine group substituted at a proper position as the heterocyclic compound according to the present application, strong hole transfer (HT) properties of the arylamine group substituted at the position resolved a hole blocking (hole trap) phenomenon occurring in the dopant. This was identified through the H-OMO/LUMO data of the following Table 11 and Table 12.

A compound having an electron transfer (ET) group substituted at a proper position as the heterocyclic compound according to the present application has a lower T1 value compared to a compound having an electron transfer group substituted at another position. A general red dopant has a low T1 value, and it is considered that efficiency increases by energy transfer from a host to a dopant readily occurring. In addition, a threshold voltage may be adjusted depending on the tendency of the electron transfer (ET) group. Specifically, when the core structure of the heterocyclic compound according to the present application is substituted with amine, the heteroatom of the amine group enhances a hole injection ability of the hole transfer group increasing efficiency and lifetime.


It was identified that, when the core structure of the heterocyclic compound according to the present application is substituted with amine, the heteroatom of the amine group enhanced a hole injection ability of the hole transfer group increasing efficiency and lifetime.
