The present invention relates to an organic compound that is employed as a material for a light efficiency improving layer (capping layer) provided in an organic light-emitting device, and an organic light-emitting device that employs the same, thus achieving greatly improved luminescent properties such as low-voltage driving of the device and excellent luminous efficiency.
The organic light-emitting device may be formed even on a transparent substrate, and may be driven at a low voltage of 10 V or less compared to a plasma display panel or an inorganic electroluminescence (EL) display. In addition, the device consumes relatively little power and has good color representation. The device may display three colors of green, blue, and read, and thus has recently become a subject of intense interest as a next-generation display device.
However, in order for such an organic light-emitting device to exhibit the aforementioned characteristics, the materials constituting an organic layer in the device, such as hole injecting materials, hole transport materials, light emitting materials, electron transport materials, and electron injecting materials, are prerequisites for the support by stable and efficient materials. However, the development of a stable and efficient organic layer material for an organic light-emitting device has not yet been sufficiently made.
Thus, further improvements in terms of efficiency and life characteristics are required for good stability, high efficiency, long lifetime, and large size of organic light-emitting devices. Particularly, there is a strong need to develop materials constituting each organic layer of organic light-emitting devices.
In addition, recently, research aimed at improving the characteristics of organic light-emitting devices by changes in the performance of each organic layer material, as well as a technique for improving the color purity and enhancing the luminous efficiency by optimizing the optical thickness between an anode and a cathode are considered as one of the crucial factors for improving the device performance. As an example of this method, an increase in light efficiency and excellent color purity are achieved by using a capping layer on an electrode.
Thus, the present invention has been made in an effort to provide a novel organic compound which may be employed in a light efficiency improving layer (capping layer) provided in an organic light-emitting device to implement excellent luminescent properties such as low-voltage driving of the device and improved luminous efficiency, and an organic light-emitting device including the same.

In Example according to the present invention, an Ag-containing ITO glass substrate having dimensions of 25 mm×25 mm×0.7 mm was used as an anode, patterned to have a light emitting area of 2 mm×2 mm, followed by cleaning. After the patterned ITO substrate was mounted in a vacuum chamber, organic materials and metals were deposited in the following structure on the substrate at a process pressure of 1×10−6 torr or more.
The compound implemented according to the present invention was employed in a light efficiency improving layer to fabricate an organic light-emitting device having the following device structure, and then the luminescent and driving characteristics according to the compound implemented according to the present invention were measured.
Ag: ITO/hole injecting layer (HAT-CN, 5 nm)/hole transport layer (α-NPB, 100 nm)/electron blocking layer (TCTA, 10 nm)/light emitting layer (20 nm)/electron transport layer (201:Liq, 30 nm)/LiF (1 nm)/Mg:Ag (15 nm)/light efficiency improving layer (70 nm)
On a glass substrate, HAT-CN was formed into a 5 nm-thick film to form a hole injecting layer on an Ag-containing ITO transparent electrode. Thereafter, α-NPB was formed into a 100 nm-thick film to form a hole transport layer, and then TCTA was formed into a 10 nm-thick film to form an electron blocking layer. A 20 nm-thick light emitting layer was formed by co-depositing BH1 as a host compound and BD1 as a dopant compound, a 30 nm-thick electron transport layer (doped with Liq 50% of the following compound) was deposited, and then LiF was formed into a 1 nm-thick film to form an electron injecting layer, and Mg:Ag at a ratio of 1:9 was formed into a 15 nm-thick film to form a cathode. In addition, the light efficiency improving layer (capping layer) was formed to a 70 nm-thick film using the compounds according to the present invention shown in Table 1 below to fabricate an organic light-emitting device.
An organic light-emitting device for Device Comparative Example 1 was fabricated in the same manner, except that the light efficiency improving layer in the device structure of Example above was not provided.
An organic light-emitting device for Device Comparative Example 2 was fabricated in the same manner, except that Alq3 was used instead of the compound according to the present invention as the light efficiency improving layer compound in the device structure of Example above.
An organic light-emitting device for Device Comparative Example 3 was fabricated in the same manner, except that CP 1 was used instead of the compound according to the present invention as the light efficiency improving layer compound in the device structure of Example above.
An organic light-emitting device for Device Comparative Example 4 was fabricated in the same manner, except that CP 2 was used instead of the compound according to the present invention as the light efficiency improving layer compound in the device structure of Example above.
An organic light-emitting device for Device Comparative Example 5 was fabricated in the same manner, except that CP 3 was used instead of the compound according to the present invention as the light efficiency improving layer compound in the device structure of Example above.
The driving voltages, current efficiencies, and color coordinates of the organic light-emitting devices fabricated in Examples and Comparative Examples above were measured using a source meter (Model 237, Keithley) and a luminance meter (PR-650, Photo Research). The result values at 1,000 nits were shown in Table 1 below.
When describing the results shown in Table 1, it can be seen that in the case of the organic light-emitting device in which the compound according to the present invention is employed in the light efficiency improving layer provided in the organic light-emitting device, there are low driving voltage and improved current efficiency, compared to a conventional device without a light efficiency improving layer (Comparative Example 1), a conventional device employed with a compound used as a light efficiency improving layer (Comparative Example 2), and conventional devices employed with a compound that contrasts with the characteristic structure of the compound according to the present invention (Comparative Examples 3 to 5).
According to the present invention, an organic compound is employed as a material for a light efficiency improving layer provided in an organic light-emitting device to achieve low-voltage driving and improved luminescent properties such as excellent luminous efficiency, color purity, etc. by increasing the light efficiency of the organic light-emitting device, and thus the present invention can be effectively used industrially in various lighting and display devices.
