Title: Blue electroluminescent compounds with high efficiency and display device using the same

Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present invention relates to novel organic electroluminescent compounds and display devices using the same as electroluminescent material. 
     BACKGROUND ART 
     Three electroluminescent materials (for red, green and blue) are employed to realize a full-colored OLED display. The important issue is to develop red, green and blue electroluminescent materials with high efficiency and long life in order to enhance the overall character of the organic electroluminescent (EL) materials. From the aspect of function, the EL materials are divided into host materials and dopant materials. It is generally known that a device structure having the most excellent EL properties can be fabricated with an EL layer prepared by doping a dopant on a host. Recently, development of an organic EL device with high efficiency and long life comes to the fore as an urgent subject, and particularly urgent is development of a material with far better EL properties as compared to conventional EL materials as considering EL properties required for a medium to large size OLED panel. From this point of view, development of a host material is one of the most important issues to be settled. The desired properties for the solid state solvent and the host material (serving as an energy conveyer) are high purity and appropriate molecular weight to enable vacuum-deposition. In addition, glass transition temperature and thermal decomposition temperature should be high to ensure thermal stability. Further, the host material should have high electrochemical stability for providing long life. It is to be easy to form an amorphous thin layer, with high adhesiveness to other adjacent materials but without interlayer migration. 
     Conventional host materials include diphenylvinyl-biphenyl (DPVBi) from Idemitsu-Kosan and dinaphthyl-anthracene (DNA) from Kodak, but still requiring a number of improvements in terms of efficiency, life and color purity. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     On order to develop a host material of high efficiency and long life, EL compounds based on different skeletals have been disclosed, such as dispiro-fluorene-anthracene (TBSA), ter-spirofluorene (TSF) and bitriphenylene (BTP). These compounds, however, did not result in color purity and luminous efficiency at a sufficient level. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     The compound TBSA as reported by Gyeongsang National University and Samsung SDI (Kwon, S. K. et al., Advanced Materials, 2001, 13, 1690; Japanese Patent Laid-Open JP 2002121547) showed luminous efficiency of 7.7 V at 3 cd/A, and relatively good color coordinate of (0.15, 0.11), but it is inappropriate for practical use. The compound TSF reported by Taiwan National University (Wu, C.-C. et al., Advanced Materials, 2004, 16, 61; US Patent Publication US 2005040392) showed relatively good external quantum efficiency of 5.3%, but it is still insufficient for practical use. The compound BTP reported by Chingwha National University of Taiwan (Cheng, C.-H. et al., Advanced Materials, 2002, 14, 1409; US Patent Publication 2004076852) showed luminous efficiency of 2.76 cd/A and relatively good color coordinate of (0.16, 0.14), but this is still insufficient for practical use.

Electric current was applied to the cell to evaporate 2-TNATA to vapor-deposit a hole injection layer with 60 nm of thickness on the ITO substrate. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Then, another cell of the vacuum vapor-deposit device was charged with N,N′-bis(α-naphthyl)-N,N′-diphenyl-4,4′-diamine (NPB) (having the structural formula given below), and electric current was applied to the cell to evaporate NPB to vapor-deposit a hole transportation layer with 20 nm of thickness on the hole injection layer. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     After formation of the hole injection layer and hole transportation layer, an EL layer was vapor-deposited as follows. One cell of the vacuum deposition device was charged with a compound according to the present invention (e.g. Compound TPN-4), while another cell of said device was charged with dopant EL materials having the structure shown below, respectively. With the vapor-deposition rate of 100:1, an EL layer was vapor-deposited with a thickness of 35 nm on the hole transportation layer. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Then, tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)-aluminum (III) (Alq) was vapor-deposited with a thickness of 20 nm, as an electron transportation layer, followed by lithium quinolate (Liq) with a thickness of from 1 to 2 nm as an electron injection layer. Thereafter, an Al cathode was vapor-deposited with a thickness of 150 nm by using another vacuum vapor-deposit device to manufacture an OLED. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Individual EL materials used for the OLED devices were purified by vacuum sublimation under 10 −6  torr. 
     Comparative Example 1 
     Manufacture of an OLED Using Conventional EL Material 
     A hole injection layer and hole transportation layer were formed according to the same procedure as described in Example 1, and dinaphthylanthracene (DNA) as a blue electroluminescent material was charged in one cell of said vapor-deposit device, while perylene in another cell as another blue electroluminescent material. Then, an electroluminescent layer with 35 nm thickness was vapor-deposited on said hole transportation layer with vapor-deposit rate of 100:1. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     Then, an electron transportation layer and an electron injection layer were vapor-deposited according to the same procedure as described in Example 1, and an Al cathode was vapor-deposited by using another vacuum vapor-deposit device with a thickness of 150 nm, to manufacture an OLED. 
     Example 2 
     Electroluminescent Properties of the OLED Manufactured 
     Electroluminescent efficiencies of OLEDs comprising the organic electroluminescent compound according to the present invention prepared from Example 1 and the conventional electroluminescent compound from Comparative Example 1 were measured at 500 cd/m 2  and 2,000 cd/m 2 , respectively, of which the results are shown in Table 1. Since the luminescent properties in the range of low luminance and those applied on the panel are very important in case of a blue electroluminescent material, in particular, the data of luminance of about 2,000 cd/m 2  was established as the standard in order to reflect those properties.

     As can be seen from Table 1, the OLED device employing the organic electroluminescent compounds according to the present invention as the electroluminescent material was compared to the OLED device of Comparative Example which employs widely known DNA:perylene as a conventional electroluminescent material, on the basis of “luminous efficiency/Y” value which shows similar tendency to quantum efficiency. As the result, the OLED device employing the organic electroluminescent compound according to the present invention showed higher “luminous efficiency/Y” value than that of Comparative Example. 
     Thus, the organic EL compounds according to the present invention can be employed as a high efficient blue EL material, including prominent advantages in terms of luminance and power consumption of an OLED as compared to conventional full-colored OLED&#39;s. 
     INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY 
     The organic EL compounds according to the present invention provide good luminous efficiency and excellent life property, and thus enable to manufacture OLED devices with very good operation lifetime.
