THIAZOLE SYSTEM ORGANIC ELECTROLUMINESCENT COMPOUNDS AND ORGANIC LIGHT EMITTING DIODE USING THE SAME

[Technical Field] The present invention relates to novel thiazole system organic electroluminescent compounds and organic light emitting diodes comprising the same.

[Background Art] As the modern society comes into information- oriented age, the importance of a display, which plays a role of interface between the electronic information device and human being, increases. As a novel planar display technique, OLED' s have been actively investigated all over the world, since OLED's show excellent display property as self - luminescent device, and the manufacture is easy because of simple device structure, and enable manufacturing of ultra-thin and ultra-light weight displays . OLED device usually consists of a plurality of thin layers of organic compound between the cathode and anode made of metal. Electrons and holes injected through the cathode and anode are transmitted to an electroluminescent layer via an electron injection layer

and an electron transportation layer, a hole injection layer and a hole transportation layer to form excitons, which degrade into stable state to emit light. In particular, the properties of an OLED largely depend on the properties of the organic electroluminescent compound employed. Accordingly studies on core organic materials having enhanced performances have been actively achieved.

The core organic materials are classified into electroluminescent materials, carrier injection and transportation materials. The electroluminescent materials can be classified into host materials and dopant materials. Usually, as the device structure with most excellent EL properties, structures comprising a core organic thin film layer employing host-dopant doping system have been known.

Recently, small size displays are practically used, so that development of OLED' s with high efficiency and long life is raising as an urgent subject. This would be an important milestone in the field of practical use of medium to large size OLED panels. Thus, development of core organic materials having more excellent properties as compared to conventional core organic materials is urgently required. From this point of view, development

of host materials, carrier injection and transportation materials is one of the important subjects to be solved.

Desirable properties for host material as solid state solvent and energy deliverer or material for carrier injection or delivery in an OLED are high purity and appropriate molecular weight to enable vacuum vapor deposition. In addition, they should ensure thermal stability with high glass transition temperature and thermal decomposition temperature, and they should have high electrochemical stability for long life of the product, and easily form an amorphous thin layer. Particularly, it is very important for them to have good adhesion with the material of other adjacent layers, along with difficulties in interlayer migration. Representatives for conventional electron delivery material include aluminum complexes such as tris(8- hydroxyquinoline ) aluminum (III) (AIq) , which has been used prior to the multilayer thin film OLED' s disclosed by Kodak in 1987; and beryllium complexes such as bis (10- hydroxybenzo- [h] quinolinato) beryllium (Bebq), which was reported in the middle of 1990's in Japan [T. Sato et al . , J. Mater. Chem. 10 (2000) 1151] . However, the limitation of the materials has come to the fore as OLED' s have been practically used after 2002. Thereafter, many electron

delivery materials of high performance have been investigated and reported to approach their practical use

In the meanwhile, non-metal complex election delivery materials of good features which have been reported up to the present include spiro-PBD [N. Jahansson et al. Adv. Mater. 10 (1998) 1136], PyPySPyPy [M. Uchida et al . Chem. Mater. 13 (2001) 2680] and TPBI [Y. -T. Tao et al. Appl . Phys . Lett. 77 (2000) 1575] of Kodak. However, there remain various needs for improvement in terms of electroluminescent properties and lifetime .

sp/ro-PBD PyPySPyPy

Particularly noticeable is that conventional electron delivery materials have only slightly improved operation voltage as compared to what was reported, or show the problem of considerable reduction of device operation lifetime. In addition the materials exhibit adverse effects such as deviation in device lifetime for each color and deterioration of thermal stability. Up to the present, those adverse effects are in the way to achieve the objects such as reasonable power consumption and increased luminance, which have been the issues in manufacturing large-size OLED panels.

[Example 1-61] Manufacture of OLED' s using the compounds according to the present invention

OLED' s were manufactured as illustrated in Fig. 1 by using the electron transportation materials according to the present invention.

First, a transparent electrode ITO thin film (2) (15 ω/D) obtained from glass (1) for OLED was subjected to ultrasonic washing with trichloroethylene , acetone, ethanol and distilled water, subsequently, and stored in isopronanol before use.

Then, an ITO substrate was equipped in a substrate folder of a vacuum vapor-deposit device, and 4,4', 4"- tris(N,N-(2 -naphthyl) -phenylamino) triphenylamine (2 -TNATA, having the structure shown below) was placed in a cell of the vacuum vapor-deposit device, which was then vented to reach 10 ^~6 torr of vacuum in the chamber. Electric current was applied to the cell to evaporate 2-TNATA to vapor-deposit a hole injection layer (3) with 60 nm of thickness on the ITO substrate.

2-TNATA

Then, another cell of the vacuum vapor- deposit device was charged with N , N' -bis ( α-naphthyl ) -N, N ' - diphenyl - 4 , 4 ' -diamine (NPB), and electric current was applied to the cell to evaporate NPB to vapor-deposit a hole transportation layer (4) with 20 nm of thickness on the hole injection layer.

NPB

After formation of the hole injection layer and hole transportation layer, an electroluminescent layer was vapor- deposited as follows. One cell of the vacuum deposition device was charged with tris(8- hydroxyquinoline ) aluminum (III) (AIq) as an

electroluminescent host material, while another cell of said device was charged with coumarin 545T (C545T) , respectively. Two substances were doped by evaporating with different rates to vapor-deposit an electroluminescent layer (5) with a thickness of 30 nm on the hole transportation layer. The doping concentration was preferably 2 to 5 mol% on the basis of AIq.

AIq C545T

Then, one of the compounds prepared according to Preparation Examples 1 to 61 (for example, Compound 109) was vapor- deposited with a thickness of 20 nm , as an electron transportation layer (6), followed by lithium quinolate (Liq) with a thickness of from 1 to 2 nm as an electron injection layer (7) . Thereafter, an Al cathode (8) was vapor-deposited with a thickness of 150 nm by using another vacuum vapor-deposit device to manufacture an OLED.

[Comparative Example 1] Manufacture of an OLED using conventional EL material

A hole injection layer (3) , a hole transportation layer (4) and an electroluminescent layer (5) were formed according to the same procedure as described in Example 1 to 61, and AIq ( tris ( 8 -hydroxyquinoline ) - aluminnum (III) having the structure shown below was vapor-deposited with 20 nm of thickness as an electron transportation layer (6) , followed by lithium quinolate (Liq) with 1-2 nm of thickness as an electron injection layer (7) . An Al cathode (8) was vapor-deposited by using another vacuum vapor-deposit device with a thickness of 150 nm , to manufacture an OLED.

[Experimental Example 1] Examination of properties of OLED

Current luminous efficiencies and power efficiencies of OLED's comprising the thiazole system organic electroluminescent compound according to the present invention prepared from Example 1 to 61 and the conventional electroluminescent compound were measured at 1000 cd/m ² , of which the results are shown in Table 1.

[Table 1]

As can be seen from Table 1, Compound (109) as the electron transportation material (Example 10) showed highest power efficiency. In particular, Compound (109) of Example 10 and Compound (153) of Example 54 showed about 70% enhancement of power efficiency as compared to the conventional material, AIq, as the electron transportation layer.

Fig. 2 is a luminous efficiency curve of the conventional electroluminescent material, Alq:C545T, while Fig. 3 is a luminous efficiency curve of Compound

(109) employed as the electron transportation material.

Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 are luminance- voltage and power eff iciency- luminance curves, respectively, which compare Compound (109) according to the present invention and AIq employed as the electron transportation layer.

From Table 1 showing the properties of the compounds developed by the present invention employed as an electron transportation layer, it is confirmed that the compounds developed by the present invention show excellent properties as compared to conventional substances in view of the performances .

It is analyzed that this results come from

appropriate combination of thiazole system functional group and anthracene skeletal as new concept of the present invention. The thiazole system functional group comprises heteroatoms such as N and S, so that electron density of the aromatic ring is reduced to give excellent electron transportation property. In addition, anthracene is bipolar in its property, thereby maximizing the ability of carrier delivery.

The combination of both properties as mentioned above is an inherent concept which is looking to the enhancement of carrier delivery property and the role of a host, not only directing to improvement of electroluminescent property of the molecule itself. Consistently, good electroluminescent properties were confirmed in an OLED according to the present invention.

In the meanwhile, in addition to the concept as described above, the present invention designed a molecular structure to have highest electric properties as organic semiconductor in thin film by appropriately combining the position of functional groups, steric hindrance, or the like. It is found that these results contribute to improvement of ability of electron transportation in the present invention.

Particularly, it is found that the improvement of

power consumption due to lowered operation voltage in an OLED employing the material according to the invention comes from improvement of current properties, not from simple improvement of luminous efficiency.

[industrial Applicability]

The compounds according to the present invention for an electron transporat ion layer are advantageous in that they can substantially improve the power efficiency by noticeably lowering the operational voltage and increasing the current efficiency. Thus, it is expected that the material can greatly contribute to reduce the power consumption of an OLED.
