2. Description of the Related Art

Among display devices, electroluminescence (EL) devices are advantageous in that they provide wide view angle, superior contrast and fast response rate as self-emissive display devices. In 1987, Eastman Kodak first developed an organic EL device using low-molecular-weight aromatic diamine and aluminum complex as electroluminescent materials [<nplcit id="ncit0001" npl-type="s"><text>Appl. Phys. Lett. 51, 913, 1987</text></nplcit>].

In an organic EL device, when a charge is applied to an organic layer formed between an electron injection electrode (cathode) and a hole injection electrode (anode), an electron and a hole are paired and emit light as the electron-hole pair is extinguished. The organic EL device is advantageous in that it can be formed on a flexible transparent substrate such as plastic, is operable with relatively low voltage (10 V or lower) as compared to plasma display panels or inorganic EL displays, consumes less power and provides excellent color. Since an organic EL device can exhibit green, blue and red colors, it is drawing a lot of attention as a full-color display device of the next generation. A process of manufacturing an organic EL device is as follows: <ol id="ol0001" compact="compact"><li>(1) First, an anode material is coated on a transparent substrate. Indium tin oxide (ITO) is frequently used as the anode material.</li><li>(2) Then, a hole injecting layer (HIL) is formed thereupon. The hole injecting layer is typically formed by coating copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) to a thickness of 10 to 30 nm.</li><li>(3) Then, a hole transport layer (HTL) is formed. The hole transport layer is formed by depositing 4,4'-bis[N-(1-naphthyl)-N-phenylamino]biphenyl (NPB) to a thickness of about 30 to 60 nm.</li><li>(4) An organic emitting layer is formed thereupon. If required, a dopant is added thereto. In case of green electroluminescence, an organic emitting layer is formed frequently by depositing tris(8-hydroxyquinolato)aluminum (Alq₃) to a thickness of about 30 to 60 nm. For the dopant, N-methylquinacridone (MQD) is commonly used.</li><li>(5) An electron transport layer (ETL) and an electron injection layer (EIL) are formed sequentially, or an electron injection/transport layer is formed thereupon. In case of green electroluminescence, the ETL and/or EIL may be unnecessary because Alq₃ has good electron transport ability.</li><li>(6) Then, a cathode is formed, and, finally, a protective layer is formed thereupon.</li></ol>

With such a structure, blue, green and red EL devices are obtained respectively depending on how the electroluminescent layer is formed. The existing green electroluminescent compounds used to create green EL devices do not have good life property or luminous efficiency.

In an organic EL device, the most important factor affecting such quality as luminous efficiency, property, etc. is the electroluminescent material. Several requirements of the electroluminescent material include high fluorescence quantum yield in solid state, high electron and hole mobility, resistance to decomposition during vacuum deposition, ability to form uniform and thin film, and good stability.

Organic electroluminescent materials may be roughly classified into high-molecular-weight materials and low-molecular-weight materials. The low-molecular-weight materials may be classified into metal complexes and metal-free pure organic electroluminescent materials, depending on molecular structure. Chelate complexes such as tris(8-quinolato)aluminum, coumarin derivatives, tetraphenylbutadiene derivatives, bisstyrylarylene derivatives, oxadiazole derivatives, or the like are known. It is reported that electroluminescence from the blue to the red region can be obtained using these materials, and the realization of full-color display devices is being expected.

In the electroluminescent device according to the present invention, it is preferred that a layer (hereinafter referred to as "surface layer") selected from a metal chalcogenide layer, a metal halide layer and a metal oxide layer is placed on the inner surface of one or both electrode(s) among the pair of electrodes. More specifically, a metal chalcogenide (including oxide) layer of silicon or aluminum may be placed on the anode surface of the electroluminescent media layer, and a metal halide layer or metal oxide layer may be placed on the cathode surface of the electroluminescent media layer. A driving stability may be attained therefrom.

The chalcogenide may be, for example, SiO_x (1 ≤ x ≤ 2), AlO_x(1 ≤ x ≤ 1.5), SiON, SiAlON, etc. The metal halide may be, for example, LiF, MgF₂, CaF₂, a rare earth metal fluoride, etc. The metal oxide may be, for example, Cs₂O, Li₂O, MgO, SrO, BaO, CaO, etc.

Further, in the electroluminescent device according to the present invention, a mixed region of an electron transport compound and a reductive dopant or a mixed region of a hole transport compound and an oxidative dopant may be placed on the inner surface of one or both electrode(s) among the pair of electrodes. In that case, injection and transport of electrons from the mixed region to the electroluminescent media become easier, because the electron transport compound is reduced to an anion. Further, injection and transport of holes from the mixed region to the electroluminescent media become easier, because the hole transport compound is oxidized to a cation. Preferred examples of the oxidative dopant include various Lewis acids and acceptor compounds. Preferred examples of the reductive dopant include alkali metals, alkali metal compounds, alkaline earth metals, rare earth metals and mixtures thereof.

The present invention further provides an organic solar cell. The organic solar cell according to the present invention comprises one or more electroluminescent compound(s) represented by Chemical Formula 1, and the electroluminescent compound is a mixture of not less than 80% by weight and less than 100% by weight of the cis-form and more than 0% by weight and not more than 20% by weight of the trans-form.

The electroluminescent device according to the present invention, which comprises as a dopant a mixture of not less than 80% by weight and less than 100% by weight of an electroluminescent compound having cis configuration and more than 0% by weight and not more than 20% by weight of the electroluminescent compound having trans configuration, exhibits superior luminous efficiency, excellent color purity and very good operation life.

EXAMPLES

Hereinafter, electroluminescence characteristics of the devices according to the present invention will be described for the understanding of the present invention. However, the following examples are for illustrative purposes only and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[Examples] Manufacture of electroluminescence device (comprising not less than 80 % by weight of dopant having cis configuration)

First, a transparent electrode ITO thin film (15 Ω/□) 2 prepared from a glass substrate for an OLED (Samsung Corning) 1 was subjected to ultrasonic washing sequentially using trichloroethylene, acetone, ethanol and distilled water, and stored in isopropanol for later use.

Next, the ITO substrate was mounted on a substrate holder of a vacuum deposition apparatus. After filling 4,4',4"-tris(N,N-(2-naphthyl)-phenylamino)triphenylamine (2-TNATA) of the following structure in a cell of the vacuum deposition apparatus, the pressure inside the chamber was reduced to 10^-6 torr. Then, 2-TNATA was evaporated by applying electrical current to the cell. A hole injecting layer 3 having a thickness of 60 nm was formed on the ITO substrate.

Subsequently, after filling <i>N</i>,<i>N</i>'-bis(α-naphthyl)-<i>N</i>,<i>N</i>'-diphenyl-4,4'-diamine (NPB) of the following structure in another cell of the vacuum deposition apparatus, NPB was evaporated by applying electrical current. A hole transport layer 4 having a thickness of 20 nm was formed on the hole injecting layer. <chemistry id="chem0446" num="0446"><img file="EP2189508A2_D0448.tif" /></chemistry>

After forming the hole injecting layer and the hole transport layer, an electroluminescent layer 5 was formed thereon as follows. Compound H-33 of the following structure was filled in a cell of a vacuum deposition apparatus as a host, and Compound 223 (80 % by weight ≦ cis content &lt; 100% by weight; 0 % by weight &lt; trans content ≦ 20% by weight; cis content + trans content = 100% by weight) was filled in another cell as a dopant. The two materials were evaporated at different speed, so that an electroluminescent layer 5 having a thickness of 30 nm was formed on the hole transport layer at 2 to 5 wt% based on the host. <chemistry id="chem0447" num="0447"><img file="EP2189508A2_D0449.tif" /></chemistry><chemistry id="chem0448" num="0448"><img file="EP2189508A2_D0450.tif" /></chemistry>

Thereafter, tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)-aluminum(III) (Alq) of the following structure was deposited with a thickness of 20 nm as an electron transport layer 6. Then, lithium quinolate (Liq) of the following structure was deposited with a thickness of 1 to 2 nm as an electron injection layer7. Then, an Al cathode 8 having a thickness of 150 nm was formed using another vacuum deposition apparatus to manufacture an OLED. <chemistry id="chem0449" num="0449"><img file="EP2189508A2_D0451.tif" /></chemistry>

Each OLED electroluminescent material was purified by vacuum sublimation at 10^-6 torr.

[Comparative Examples] Manufacture of electroluminescence device (comprising less than 80 % by weight of dopant having cis configuration)

An OLED device was manufactured as in Examples, except that Compound 223 (0% by weight &lt; cis content &lt; 80% by weight; 20% by weight &lt; trans content &lt; 100% by weight; cis content + trans content = 100% by weight) was used as a dopant.

Luminous efficiency of the OLED devices manufactured in Example and Comparative Example, with different cis-trans proportion of the dopant compound, was measured at 1,000 cd/m². The result is given in Table 2. <tables id="tabl0002" num="0002"><img file="EP2189508A2_D0452.tif" /></tables><tables id="tabl0003" num="0003"><img file="EP2189508A2_D0453.tif" /></tables>

As seen in Table 2, the electroluminescent devices according to the present invention, which comprise a mixture of not less than 80% by weight and less than 100% by weight of a dopant compound having cis configuration and more than 0% by weight and not more than 20% by weight of the dopant compound having trans configuration, exhibited improved luminous efficiency and color purity as compared to the devices of Comparative Examples 1 to 3, which comprise less than 80% by weight of the dopant compound having cis configuration.
