The organic light emitting device according to the present disclosure can be manufactured by sequentially stacking the above-described structures.

Hereinafter, the preparation of the organic light emitting device will be specifically described in the following Examples. However, the following Examples are provided for illustrative purposes only, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure.

A glass substrate on which a thin film of ITO (indium tin oxide) was coated in a thickness of <NUM>,<NUM>Å was put into distilled water containing the detergent dissolved therein and washed by the ultrasonic wave. In this case, the used detergent was a product commercially available from Fisher Co. and the distilled water was one which had been twice filtered by using a filter commercially available from Millipore Co. The ITO was washed for <NUM> minutes, and ultrasonic washing was then repeated twice for <NUM> minutes by using distilled water. After the washing with distilled water was completed, the substrate was ultrasonically washed with isopropyl alcohol, acetone, and methanol solvent, and dried, after which it was transported to a plasma cleaner. Then, the substrate was cleaned with oxygen plasma for <NUM> minutes, and then transferred to a vacuum evaporator.

On the ITO transparent electrode thus prepared, the following compound HI-<NUM> was formed in a thickness of 1150Å, and the following compound A-1was p-doped at a concentration of <NUM> wt. % to form a hole injection layer. The following compound HT-<NUM> was vacuum deposited on the hole injection layer to form a hole transport layer with a film thickness of 800Å. Then, the following compound EB-<NUM> was vacuum-deposited on the hole transport layer to form an electron blocking layer with a film thickness of <NUM>Å. Then, the previously prepared compound <NUM>-<NUM>, compounds <NUM>-<NUM> and compound Dp-<NUM> were vacuum-deposited in a weight ratio of <NUM>:<NUM>:<NUM> on the electron blocking layer to form a red light emitting layer with a film thickness of <NUM>Å. The following compound HB-<NUM> was vacuum-deposited on the light emitting layer to form a hole blocking layer with a film thickness of <NUM>Å. Then, the following compound ET-<NUM> and the following compound LiQ were vacuum-deposited in a weight ratio of <NUM>:<NUM> on the hole blocking layer to form an electron injection and transport layer with a thickness of <NUM>Å. Lithium fluoride (LiF) and aluminum were sequentially deposited to have a thickness of <NUM>Å and <NUM>,<NUM>Å, respectively, on the electron injection and transport layer, thereby forming a cathode. <CHM>
<CHM>
<CHM>.

In the above-mentioned processes, the deposition rates of the organic materials were maintained at <NUM>-<NUM>Å/sec, the deposition rates of lithium fluoride and the aluminum of the cathode were maintained at <NUM>Å/sec and <NUM>Å/sec, respectively, and the degree of vacuum during the deposition was maintained at <NUM>×<NUM>-<NUM> ~ <NUM>×<NUM>-<NUM> torr, thereby manufacturing an organic light emitting device.

The organic light emitting devices were manufactured in the same manner as in Example <NUM>, except that in the production of the light emitting layer, the compounds shown in Tables <NUM> to <NUM> below were used instead of Compound <NUM>-<NUM> and Compound <NUM>-<NUM>, respectively.

The organic light emitting devices were manufactured in the same manner as in Example <NUM>, except that in the production of the light emitting layer, the compounds shown in Tables <NUM> to <NUM> below were used instead of Compound <NUM>-<NUM> and Compound <NUM>-<NUM>, respectively. In Tables <NUM> to <NUM> below, Compounds B-<NUM> to B-<NUM> and C-<NUM> to C-<NUM> were as follows, respectively. <CHM>

<CHM>.

The voltage and efficiency were measured (<NUM> mA/cm<NUM>) by applying a current to the organic light emitting devices manufactured in Examples and Comparative Examples, and the results are shown in Tables below. Lifetime T95 was measured based on <NUM> nits, and T95 means the time (hr) required for the lifetime to be reduced to <NUM>% of the initial lifetime.

When a current was applied to the organic light emitting devices manufactured in Examples <NUM> to <NUM> and Comparative Examples <NUM> to <NUM>, the results shown in the above Tables were obtained. A material widely used in the prior art was used as the red organic light emitting device of Example <NUM>, Compound EB-<NUM> was used as the electron blocking layer, and Compound Dp-<NUM> was used as the dopant of the red light emitting layer. When any one of Comparative Example Compounds B-<NUM> to B-<NUM> and the compound represented by Chemical Formula <NUM> of the present disclosure were co-deposited together and used as a red light emitting layer, the result showed that generally, the driving voltage increased and the efficiency and lifetime decreased as compared with the combination of the present disclosure. Even when any one of Comparative Example Compounds C-<NUM> to C-<NUM> and the compound represented by Chemical Formula <NUM> of the present disclosure were co-deposited together and used as a red light emitting layer, the result showed that the driving voltage increased and the efficiency and lifetime decreased.

When inferred from these results, it can be seen that the reasons for an improvement in the driving voltage and an increase in the efficiency and lifetime is that the combination of the compound of Chemical Formula <NUM> as the first host of the present disclosure and the compound of Chemical Formula <NUM> as the second host provides good energy transfer to the red dopant in the red light emitting layer. After all, this confirms that the combination of Chemical Formula <NUM> and Chemical Formula <NUM> of the present disclosure combines electrons and holes through a more stable balance in the light emitting layer than the combination with Comparative Example Compounds, thereby forming excitons and greatly increasing the efficiency and lifetime.

In conclusion, when the compound of Chemical Formula <NUM> and the compound of Chemical Formula <NUM> of the present disclosure were combined, co-deposited and used as a host for the red light emitting layer, it can be confirmed that the driving voltage, luminous efficiency, and lifetime characteristics of the organic light emitting device can be improved.
