Title: Organic electroluminescence device

Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present invention relates to an organic electroluminescence device. 
     BACKGROUND ART 
     Organic electroluminescence devices (which may hereinafter be called “devices” or “organic EL devices”) are capable of obtaining light emission of high luminance with low voltage driving, and thus have been actively researched and developed. Organic electroluminescence devices have an organic layer interposed between a pair of electrodes and utilize, for light emission, energy of the exciton generated as a result of recombination of electrons injected from a cathode and holes injected from an anode in the organic layer. 
     Improvement in the efficiency of devices has been recently made by using a phosphorescent light emitting material. Further, doping-type devices, which utilize light emitting layers in which a light emitting material is doped in a host material, have been widely employed. 
     For example, Patent Documents 1 to 3 have proposed organic electroluminescence devices which have improved light emission efficiency and durability, by using iridium complexes, platinum complexes or the like as a phosphorescent light emitting material, and using a compound with a specific structure containing a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group and a carbazole structure as a host material. 
     Likewise, organic electroluminescence devices have been proposed, in which light emission efficiency is improved by using a compound with a specific structure containing a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group and a carbazole structure as an electron transporting material in an electron transporting layer (see Patent Document 4). 
     The development of host materials also has been actively conducted, and Patent Document 5 describes an organic electroluminescence device, which uses a phosphorescence emitting material and a hydrocarbon-based material in an electron transporting layer adjacent to a light emitting layer. Furthermore, Patent Document 6 describes a phenyl-substituted mCP derivative and an organic electroluminescence device using this derivative. 
     However, there is need for an organic electroluminescence device having light emission efficiency and durability at a much higher level than the devices described in these Patent Documents.

     DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION 
     Problems to Be Solved by the Invention 
     For illumination purpose, driving at a high luminance of more than 10,000 cd/m 2  is also required. According to the study of the present inventors, it has been found out that there are problems in that chromaticity is changed because the light emission position (film thickness direction) in the light emitting layer is changed when driving at a high luminance, compared to the light emission position in driving at a low luminance, and due to heat generation, densification of producing excitons and the like other than a change in the light emission position when driving at a high luminance, the degradation mechanism is different from the mechanism when driving at a low luminance, and a change in chromaticity over time or voltage rise over time is large. 
     An object of the present invention is to provide an organic electroluminescence device having excellent light emission efficiency and durability. Further, an object thereof is to obtain an organic electroluminescence device having a low driving voltage, a small change in chromaticity when driving at a high luminance, a small change in chromaticity over time and a small voltage rise over time.

     The organic electroluminescence device of the present invention is an organic electroluminescence device, including: a pair of electrodes composed of an anode and a cathode; a light emitting layer between the electrodes; and an organic layer which is adjacent to the light emitting layer between the light emitting layer and the cathode, on a substrate, and the light emitting layer includes at least one compound represented by the following Formula (1) and the organic layer adjacent to the light emitting layer includes at least one hydrocarbon compound which is composed only of carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms, has a molecular weight in a range of 400 to 1,200, and includes a condensed polycyclic structure with a total carbon number of 13 to 22. 
     According to the present inventors&#39; review, when devices in the related art are driven at a high luminance of more than 10,000 cd/m 2 , there was a problem in that the a change in chromaticity is larger than the change in chromaticity when driving at a low luminance and a change in chromaticity by aging is large and a voltage rise by aging is large. 
     The difference in chromaticity between high luminance and low luminance is mainly due to difference in a light emission position (film thickness direction) in the light emitting layer, and this is thought to be due to a charge injection barrier at each layer interface from the electrode to the light emitting layer or the electric field intensity dependence of electric charge mobility of each layer. In the device of the present invention, the electron injection barrier from the cathode to the light emitting layer becomes small and the electric field intensity dependence of electric charge mobility becomes small, and thus, it is presumed that a change in chromaticity by light emitting luminance is small. 
     Further, the reason why a change in chromaticity by aging or a voltage rise by aging occurs when driving at a high luminance may be thought to be a large heat generation amount, the production of species of reaction activity, such as excitons, radical cations, radical anions and the like at high density, the resultant occurrence of chemical reactions by any combination of a light emitting material, a host material, a material in a layer adjacent to the light emitting layer and the like in addition to the above-described change in the light emitting position. 
     In the device of the present invention, as described above, a combination of the compound represented by Formula (1) and the hydrocarbon compound which is composed only of carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms, has a molecular weight in a range of 40 to 1,200 and has a condensed polycyclic structure with a total carbon number of 13 to 22 is thought to be a device which is suitable for driving at a high luminance for the reasons that a change in light emitting position hardly occurs, the film is stable for heat, the combination makes chemical reactions difficult to occur even though reactive species are generated, and the like. 
     [Compound Represented by Formula (1)] 
     Hereinafter, a compound represented by Formula (1) will be described. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     In Formula (1), R 1  represents an alkyl group, an aryl group or a silyl group, and may have a substituent Z, provided that R 1  does not represent a carbazolyl group and a perfluoroalkyl group. In the case where R 1  is present in plurality, each of a plurality of R 1  may be the same or different. In addition, a plurality of R 1  may be bonded to each other to form an aryl ring which may have a substituent Z. 
     Each of R 2  to R 5  independently represents an alkyl group, an aryl group, a silyl group, a cyano group or a fluorine atom, and may further have a substituent Z. In the case where each of R 2  to R 5  is present in plurality, each of a plurality of R 2  to a plurality of R 5  may be the same or different.

In addition, the electric charge transporting layer is more preferably a hole injection layer, a hole transporting layer or an electron blocking layer. 
     (Hole Injection Layer and Hole Transporting Layer) 
     Each of the hole injection layer and the hole transporting layer is a layer having a function of accepting holes from the anode or the anode side to transport the holes into the cathode side. 
     The hole injection layer preferably contains an electron accepting dopant. Effects that the hole injection property is improved, driving voltage is reduced, efficiency is improved and the like are exhibited by containing the electron accepting dopant in the hole injection layer. The electron accepting dopant may be any of organic materials and inorganic materials as long as the dopant is a material capable of withdrawing electrons from a material to be doped to generate radical cations, and examples thereof include tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ), tetrafluorotetracyanoquinodimethane (F 4 -TCNQ), molybdenum oxide and the like.

Each of an electron injection material and an electron transporting material which is used in these layers may be a low-molecular weight compound or a polymer compound.

     The injection of electric charges from the electrodes may be generally promoted to reduce the driving voltage by containing an electron accepting dopant in the hole injection layer and an electron donating dopant in the electron injection layer, and if the electric charge balance in the device is destroyed by them, the light emitting position may be changed to promote the reduction in light emission efficiency or reduction in driving durability and various changes when driving at a high luminance. Since the device of the present invention has a small electric charge injection barrier at the interface of a layer adjacent to the light emitting layer/a light emitting layer on the cathode side and a small electric charge trap in the light emitting layer or the layer adjacent to the light emitting layer on the cathode side, it is difficult to accumulate electric charges in the device, and a balance of electron mobility of the layer adjacent to the light emitting layer on the cathode side and hole mobility and electron mobility of the light emitting layer is good. For these reasons and the like, the device of the present invention is a device which makes it difficult to destroy the balance of electric charges for the change in amount of electric charge injection. Accordingly, the driving voltage may be reduced without deteriorating the efficiency, durability, various changes when driving at a high luminance by containing an electron accepting dopant in the hole injection layer and an electron donating dopant in the electron injection layer.

     EXAMPLE 
     Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to Examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto. 
     Exemplified Compounds 1, 20 and 25 were synthesized by a method disclosed in International Publication No. WO 2004/074399. Exemplified Compounds 2, 9, 11 and 13 were synthesized with reference to a method disclosed in International Publication No. WO 2004/074399. Further, Exemplified Compound (A) was synthesized by a method disclosed in International Publication No. WO 2004/018587. In addition, Exemplified Compounds (B), (C), (D), (E), (F), (G), (H) and (I) were synthesized with reference to a method disclosed in International Publication No. WO 2004/018587. 
     Meanwhile, the organic material used in the present example were all purified by sublimation and analyzed by high-speed liquid chromatography (TOSOH CORPORATION TSKgel ODS-100Z), and found to have an absorption intensity area ratio of 99.9% or more at 254 nm. 
     EXAMPLE 1 
     [Manufacture of Device] 
     A glass substrate having an ITO film having a thickness of 0.5 mm and each side of 2.5 cm in square (manufactured by GEOMATEC Co., Ltd., and surface resistance 10Ω/□) was put into a washing container, and ultrasonically washed in 2-propanol, followed by UV-ozone treatment for 30 min. The following organic compound layers were sequentially deposited on this transparent anode (ITO film) by means of vacuum deposition. 
     First layer: CuPc: film thickness 10 nm 
     Second layer: NPD: film thickness 30 nm 
     Third layer: Host material shown in Table 1 and RD-1 (mass ratio 93:7): film thickness 30 nm 
     Fourth layer: Material shown in Table 1: film thickness 10 nm 
     Fifth layer: Alq: film thickness 20 nm 
     0.1 nm-thick lithium fluoride and 100 nm-thick metal aluminum were deposited in this order thereon, thereby forming a cathode. 
     This stacked body was placed in a glove box substituted with a nitrogen gas without being contacted with the atmosphere and sealed by using a glass-made sealing can and a UV-curable adhesive (XNR5516HV, manufactured by Nagase-CHIBA Ltd.) to obtain an organic electroluminescent device. 
     As a result of emitting light from these devices, light emission derived from each of the light emitting materials was able to be obtained. 
     (Evaluation of Performance of Organic Electroluminescent Device) 
     Each device obtained was evaluated from the viewpoint of the efficiency, driving voltage, durability, change in chromaticity when driving at high luminance, change in chromaticity by aging when driving at high luminance and increase in driving voltage by aging when driving at a high luminance. Meanwhile, various measurements were performed as follows. The results are shown in Table 1. 
     (a) Efficiency 
     A direct current voltage was applied to each device by using a Source Measure Unit 2400 manufactured by TOYO Corporation to emit light, and then the luminance thereof was measured by using a luminance meter BM-8 manufactured by TOPCON CORPORATION. The light emission spectra and light emission wavelengths were measured by using a spectrum analyzer PMA-11 manufactured by Hamamatsu Photonics K.K. Based on these, the external quantum efficiency in the vicinity of a luminance of 1,000 cd/m 2  was calculated by a luminance conversion method, and was shown as a relative value in each Table by using each of the values of device 1-1 in Table 1, device 2-1 in Table 2, device 3-1 in Table 3, device 4-1 in Table 4, device 5-1 in Table 5 and device 1-1 in Table 6 as 10. The larger the number, the more preferable the efficiency. 
     (b) Driving Voltage 
     Direct current voltage was applied to each device to enable the devices to emit light such that the luminance became 1,000 cd/m 2 . At this time, the applied voltage was used as an index for evaluation of the driving voltage, and was shown as a relative value in each Table by using each of the values of device 1-1 in Table 1, device 2-1 in Table 2, device 3-1 in Table 3, device 4-1 in Table 4, device 5-1 in Table 5 and device 1-1 in Table 6 as 10. The smaller the number, the more preferable the driving voltage. 
     (c) Durability 
     Direct current voltage is applied to each device such that the luminance became 5,000 cd/m 2 , and light was continuously emitted to obtain the time required until the luminance became 4,000 cd/m 2  as an index for durability, and the time was shown as a relative value in each Table by using each of the values of device 1-1 in Table 1, device 2-1 in Table 2, device 3-1 in Table 3, device 4-1 in Table 4, device 5-1 in Table 5 and device 1-1 in Table 6 as 10. The larger the number, the more preferable the durability. 
     (d) Change in Chromaticity when Driving at High Luminance 
     Direct current voltage was applied to each device to enable the devices to emit light such that the luminance became 20,000 cd/m 2 . The chromaticity (x, y) at this time was compared to the chromaticity (x, y) when direct current voltage is applied such that the luminance becomes 1,000 cd/m 2  to emit light, and the differences in the x value and the y value of both the chromaticities were shown in the form of (Δx, Δy) and used as an index for the change in chromaticity when driving at a high luminance. The smaller the values of Δx and Δy, the more preferable. 
     (e) Change in Chromaticity by Aging when Driving at High Luminance 
     Direct current voltage is applied to each device such that the luminance is 20,000 cd/m 2  and light was continuously emitted. The chromaticity (x, y) at the initial driving was compared to the chromaticity (x, y) when the luminance was 10,000 cd/m 2 , and the differences in the x value and the y value of both the chromaticities were shown in the form of (Δx, Δy) and used as an index for the change in chromaticity by aging when driving at a high luminance. The smaller the values of Δx and Δy, the more preferable. 
     (f) Increase in Driving Voltage by Aging when Driving at High Luminance 
     Direct current voltage is applied to each device such that the luminance becomes 20,000 cd/m 2  and light is continuously emitted. The difference between the voltage at the initial driving and the voltage when the luminance was 10,000 cd/m 2  was used as an index for the voltage rise by aging when driving at high luminance. The smaller this value, the more preferable. 
     Meanwhile, in Tables 1 to 6, the symbol “&lt;” in the evaluation of change in chromaticity and change in chromaticity by aging means a sign of inequality, and for example, “&lt;0.005” means that the change in chromaticity or the change in chromaticity by aging was less than 0.005, and “&gt;0.02” means that the change in chromaticity or the change in chromaticity by aging was more than 0.02. 
     Furthermore, “&gt;5” in the evaluation of voltage rise by aging means that the voltage rise by aging was more than 5, and “&lt;1” in the evaluation of durability means that the durability (relative value) was less than 1.

     Example 5 
     A glass substrate having an ITO film having a thickness of 0.5 mm and each side of 2.5 cm in square (manufactured by GEOMATEC Co., Ltd., and surface resistance 10Ω/□) was put into a washing container, and ultrasonically washed in 2-propanol, followed by UV-ozone treatment for 30 min. An aqueous solution (BaytronP (standard product) of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT)/polystyrene sulfonic acid (PSS) was spin-coated (at 4,000 rpm for 60 sec) on this transparent anode (ITO film) and dried at 120° C. for 10 min to form a hole transporting layer (thickness 150 nm). 
     Subsequently, a toluene solution containing 1 mass % of the host material shown in Table 5 and 0.05 mass % of RD-1 was spin-coated (at 2,000 rpm for 60 sec) on the above hole transporting layer to form a light emitting layer (thickness 50 nm). 
     The compound described in the item of the electron transporting layer shown in Table 5 was used and deposited in a thickness of 10 nm on this light emitting layer by a vacuum deposition method, thereby forming the resulting layer as an electron transporting layer, and Alq was deposited as an electron injection layer in a thickness of 20 nm by a vacuum deposition method. Furthermore, 0.1 nm-thick lithium fluoride and a 100 nm-thick metal aluminum were deposited in this order thereon, thereby forming a cathode. 
     This stacked body was placed in a glove box substituted with a nitrogen gas without being contacted with the atmosphere and sealed by using a glass-made sealing can and a UV-curable adhesive (XNR5516HV, manufactured by Nagase-CHIBA Ltd.) to obtain devices 5-1 to 5-8 and comparative devices 5-1 to 5-9 of the present invention. The devices obtained were subjected to the same evaluation as in device 1-1, and the result is shown in Table 5.
