Organic light-emitting devices are self-emission devices that produce full-color images, and also have wide viewing angles, high contrast ratios, short response times, and excellent characteristics in terms of brightness, driving voltage, and response speed, compared to devices in the art.

In an example, an organic light-emitting device includes an anode, a cathode, and an organic layer between the anode and the cathode, wherein the organic layer includes an emission layer. A hole transport region may be located between the anode and the emission layer, and an electron transport region may be located 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. The holes and the electrons recombine in the emission layer to produce excitons. These excitons transit from an excited state to a ground state to thereby generate light.

Description of FIG. 1

FIG. 1 is a schematic view of an organic light-emitting device 10 according to an exemplary embodiment. Hereinafter, a structure and a manufacturing method of an organic light-emitting device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG. 1.

The organic light-emitting device 10 of FIG. 1 includes a first electrode 11, a second electrode 19 facing the first electrode 11, and an organic layer 10A between the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 19.

The organic layer 10A includes an emission layer 15, a hole transport region 12 located between the first electrode 11 and the emission layer 15, and an electron transport region 17 located between the emission layer 15 and the second electrode 19.

A substrate may be additionally located 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 a transparent plastic substrate, each having excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, transparency, surface smoothness, ease of handling, and water resistance.

First Electrode 11

In one or more embodiments, the first electrode 11 may be formed by depositing or sputtering a material for forming the first electrode 11 on the substrate. The first electrode 11 may be an anode. The material for forming the first electrode 11 may be a material with a high work function to facilitate hole injection.

The first electrode 11 may be a reflective electrode, a semi-transmissive electrode, or a transmissive electrode. When the first electrode 11 is a transmissive electrode, a material for forming a first electrode may be indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), tin oxide (SnO₂), zinc oxide (ZnO), and any combinations thereof, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. In one or more embodiments, when the first electrode 110 is a semi-transmissive electrode or a reflective electrode, a material for forming the first electrode 110 may be 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.

The first electrode 11 may have a single-layered structure or a multi-layered structure including two or more layers.

Emission Layer 15

The emission layer 15 includes a host, a sensitizer, and an emitter.

Since the emission layer 15 includes a host, a sensitizer, and an emitter and fluorescence or delayed fluorescence is emitted from the emitter, the organic light-emitting device 10 may have higher efficiency and/or longer lifespan than other organic light-emitting devices, for example, an organic light-emitting device that does not include a sensitizer, and particularly, an increase in the efficiency thereof may be remarkable. Without wishing to be bound by theory, triplet excitons formed at a host, which is 75% of the total excitons, are transferred to a sensitizer through Dexter energy transfer, and energy of singlet excitons formed at the host, which is 25% of the total excitons, is transferred to singlet and triplet of the sensitizer, wherein the singlet undergoes intersystem crossing into a triplet, and then, the triplet energy of the sensitizer is transferred to an emitter through Förster energy transfer. Accordingly, by transferring all the singlet excitons and the triplet excitons generated in the emission layer to an emitter, an organic light-emitting device having improved efficiency may be obtained. In addition, since an organic light-emitting device with significantly reduced energy loss may be obtained, the lifespan characteristics of the organic light-emitting device may be improved.

The emission layer 15 may satisfy the following Condition 1:⊖_H+S+E/⊖_H+S×100>about 109(%).  Condition 1

In Condition 1,

⊖_H+S+E is a horizontal orientation ratio of the emission layer 15, and

⊖_H+S is a horizontal orientation ratio of a thin film consisting of the host and the sensitizer included in the emission layer.

⊖_H+S+E is a value obtained by preparing a quartz substrate having a thickness of 50 nm and formed by depositing the host, the sensitizer, and the emitter at a weight ratio of {100−(a+b)}:a:b, and comparing a graph obtained by measuring photoluminescence (PL) intensity of the same according to an angle of 0° to 90° with simulated graphs having different horizontal orientation ratios, for example, a horizontal orientation ratio of 100% and a horizontal orientation ratio of 67%. Here, a and b are each an arbitrary constant.

⊖_H+S is a value obtained by preparing a quartz substrate having a thickness of 50 nm and formed by depositing the host and the sensitizer at a weight ratio of (100−c):c, and comparing a graph obtained by measuring PL intensity of the same according to an angle of 0° to 90° with simulated graphs having different horizontal orientation ratios, for example, a horizontal orientation ratio of 100% and a horizontal orientation ratio of 67%. Here, c is an arbitrary constant.

When Condition 1 is satisfied, improved spectral overlap may be secured, and thus, efficiency and/or lifespan of the organic light-emitting device may be increased.

In detail, ⊖_H+S+E/⊖_H+S×100 of the emission layer 15 may be about 140% or less, about 135% or less, about 111% or more, or about 110% or more.

In an embodiment, a spectral overlap integral (SOI) constant (J) of the sensitizer and the emitter is greater than or equal to about 1×10¹⁴. J is a value obtained from the following Equation 1:

$\begin{array}{cc}J={\int }_0^{\infty }{F}_D\left(\lambda \right){\varepsilon }_A\left(\lambda \right){\lambda }^{4}d\lambda .& \mathrm{Equation}1\end{array}$

In Equation 1,

λ is an emission wavelength (nm),

F_D(A) is an emission spectrum of the sensitizer, and ε_A(A) is an extinction coefficient spectrum of the emitter.

When Equation 1 is satisfied, J may be greater than or equal to about 1×10¹⁴, energy transfer to the emitter may be efficiency performed. Accordingly, the efficiency of the organic light-emitting device 10 and the lifespan of the organic light-emitting device may be increased at the same time.

In an embodiment, the host, the emitter, and the sensitizer may further satisfy the following Condition 2:T₁(H)≥T₁(S)≥S₁(E).  Condition 2

In Condition 2,

T₁(H) is a lowest excitation triplet energy level of the host,

S₁(E) is a lowest excitation singlet energy level of the emitter, and

T₁(S) is a lowest excitation triplet energy level of the sensitizer.

When the host, the emitter, and the sensitizer satisfy Condition 2, triplet excitons may be effectively transferred from the emission layer to the emitter, and thus, an organic light-emitting device having improved efficiency may be obtained. In addition, when Condition 2 is further satisfied, only the emitter substantially emits light in the emission layer, and thus, a horizontal orientation ratio of the emission layer may vary according to a type of the emitter, regardless of the composition of the emission layer.

In an embodiment, the host and the sensitizer may further satisfy the following Condition 3:T₁(H)>T₁(S).  Condition 3

In Condition 3,

T₁(H) is a lowest excitation triplet energy level of the host, and

T₁(S) is a lowest excitation triplet energy level of the sensitizer.

When the host and the sensitizer further satisfy Condition 3, in an emission layer consisting of the host and the sensitizer, only the sensitizer substantially emits light, and thus, a horizontal orientation ratio of the emission layer may vary according to a type of the sensitizer, regardless of the composition of the emission layer.

In an embodiment, ⊖_H+S+E may be greater than or equal to about 80%. Because ⊖_H+S+E is greater than or equal to 80%, the efficiency and/or the lifespan may be improved. In detail, because ⊖_H+S+E is greater than or equal to about 80%, during the organic light-emitting device 10 is driven, an electric field may be emitted in a substantially horizontal direction (i.e., a direction parallel to the first electrode) with respect to the emission layer, and thus, optical loss due to a waveguide mode and/or a surface plasmon polariton mode may be reduced. Light emitted by such a mechanism may have high external extraction efficiency, and the organic light-emitting device 10 may achieve high luminescence efficiency.

In detail, ⊖_H+S+E may be, for example, about 84% or more, about 87% or more, about 90% or more, about 93% or more, about 96% or more, about 99% or more, or 100% or less.

Among total emission components emitted from the emission layer, a proportion of emission components emitted from the emitter may be greater than or equal to about 80%. In an embodiment, the emitter may be a delayed fluorescence dopant emitting delayed fluorescence. A proportion of delayed fluorescence components to total emission components in time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) of the emitter may be about 85% or more, for example, about 90% or more, about 95% or more, or about 99% or more. The emitter emits delayed fluorescence. Accordingly, when the emitter is used, an organic light-emitting device having high efficiency may be obtained. The proportion of delayed fluorescence components (DF portion) may be evaluated using a known method. A more detailed evaluation method of the DF portion will be described with reference to embodiments to be described later.

Each of the host and the sensitizer may not emit light.

A thickness of the emission layer may be in a range of about 100 Å to about 1,000 Å, for example, about 200 Å to about 600 Å. When the thickness of the emission layer is within this range, excellent light-emission characteristics may be obtained without a substantial increase in driving voltage.

Host in Emission Layer 15

The host may not include metal atoms.

In an embodiment, the host may include one type of host. When the host includes one type of host, the one type of host may be an amphiprotic host, an electron transport host, or a hole transport host, which will be described later.

In one or more embodiments, the host may include a mixture of two or more different hosts. For example, the host may be a mixture of an electron transport host and a hole transport host, a mixture of two different types of electron transport hosts, or a mixture of two different types of hole transport hosts. The electron transport host and the hole transport host may be understood by referring to the related description to be presented later.

X1 to X10 and Y1 to Y18 in Tables 4 to 6 are as follows, and Ph in the tables refers to a phenyl group:

An amount of the sensitizer in the emission layer may be from about 5 wt % to about 50 wt %. Within this range, it is possible to achieve effective energy transfer in the emission layer, and accordingly, an organic light-emitting device having high efficiency and long lifespan may be embodied.

Emitter in Emission Layer 15

Because the emitter emits fluorescence, for example, delayed fluorescence, an organic light-emitting device including the emitter emitting fluorescence is clearly distinguished from an organic light-emitting device including a compound emitting phosphorescence.

In an embodiment, a horizontal orientation ratio of the emitter may be greater than or equal to about 90%.

The horizontal orientation ratio of the emitter is a value obtained by using a quartz substrate, in which the host and the emitter are deposited at a weight ratio of (100−d):d to have a thickness of 50 nm, and comparing a graph obtained by measuring PL intensity according to an angle for a range of 0° to 90° with respect to the quartz substrate with a simulated graph having different horizontal orientation ratios, for example, a horizontal orientation ratio of 100% and a horizontal orientation ratio of 67%. Here, d is an arbitrary constant. In the quartz substrate, only the emitter may substantially emit light and may further satisfy T₁(H)>S₁(E).

A maximum emission wavelength of an emission spectrum of the emitter may be about 400 nm or more and about 550 nm or less. In an embodiment, a maximum emission wavelength of an emission spectrum of the emitter may be about 400 nm or more and about 495 nm or less, or about 450 nm or more and about 495 or less, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. That is, the emitter may emit blue light. The “maximum emission wavelength” refers to a wavelength at which the emission intensity is the greatest and may also be referred to as “a peak emission wavelength”.

In an embodiment, the emitter does not include metal atoms.

The emitter may be a condensed cyclic compound represented by Formula 1 below:

Evaluation Example 4: Correlation Between Change in Horizontal Orientation Ratio and External Quantum Efficiency and Lifespan

A correlation between a change in a horizontal orientation ratio and external quantum efficiency, according to an absence/presence of emitter, is illustrated in FIG. 4. A correlation between a change in a horizontal orientation ratio and lifespan, according to an absence/presence of emitter, is illustrated in FIG. 5. In this case, the correlation between a change in a horizontal orientation ratio and external quantum efficiency and the correlation between a change in a horizontal orientation ratio and lifespan were derived based on data (see Table 11) about external quantum efficiency and lifespan obtained from Examples 1 to 13 and Comparative Example 1 and data (see Table 9) about ratios of horizontal orientation ratio of samples corresponding to composition of emission layers used in Examples 1 to 13 and Comparative Example 1.

From FIGS. 4 and 5, it may be confirmed that when the ratio of horizontal orientation ratio is greater than about 109%, a degree of improvement in lifespan and efficiency of an organic light-emitting device is apparent.

The organic light-emitting device may have improved efficiency and/or improved lifespan.
