The present disclosure claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201811099985.2, filed on Sep. 20, 2018, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
The present disclosure relates to the field of organic electroluminescent materials, and in particular, to a novel nitrogen heterocycle-fused benzene-benzimidazole organic compound, and a display panel and display apparatus containing the nitrogen heterocycle-fused benzene-benzimidazole organic compound.
Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) has made great progress after several decades of development. Although an internal quantum efficiency of the OLED is already close to 100%, an external quantum efficiency of the OLED is only about 20%. Most of light are confined inside the light-emitting device due to factors such as surface plasma loss and waveguide effect, resulting in a large energy loss.
In a top-emission type device, an organic capping layer (CPL) is usually deposited on a translucent metal electrode Al to adjust an optical interference distance, suppress external light reflection, and suppress extinction caused by movement of surface plasmas, thereby enhancing extraction efficiency of the light, and improving luminous efficiency.
The existing CPL materials mostly use aromatic amine derivatives, phosphoxy derivatives and quinolinone derivatives, etc., which have both hole transmission function and electron transmission function and then the light extraction efficiency is improved to some extent. However, the refractive index of the existing CPL materials is generally no greater than 1.9, which does not meet the requirements of high refractive index; an amine derivative of specific structures having high refractive index and materials conforming to specific parameters can improve the light extraction efficiency, but cannot simultaneously solve the problem of luminous efficiency, especially for blue light-emitting elements. In order to increase the density of molecules and achieve high thermal stability, molecular structures of the existing materials are designed too big and loose, and molecules cannot be closely packed, resulting too many molecular gel holes during evaporation and poor coverage tightness.

The preparation methods of the device examples 2-12 and the device comparative example 1 were the same except that the compounds used in the vacuum evaporation at step 7) are different. The compounds used in the step 7) of the device examples 2-12 and the device comparative example 1 are CP4, CP6, CP11, CP12, CP15, CP18, CP23, CP24, CP27, CP30, CP32, and CBP, respectively.
