HOST MATERIAL FOR ORGANIC LIGHT EMITTING DEVICES

摘要

The present invention provides an OLED in which an organic thin film layer comprising a single layer or plural layers between a cathode and an anode, wherein the organic thin film layer comprises at least one organic light emitting layer, wherein at least one light emitting layer comprises at least one host material and at least one phosphorescent emitter material, wherein the host material comprises a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon compound having the chemical structure represented by the formula (A-I): formula (A-1) wherein R1 and R2 each represent independently a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having from 1 to about 5 carbon atoms; Ar1 represents a divalent residue of a benzene ring, a naphthalene ring, a chrysene ring, a phenanthrene ring, a benzophenanthrene ring, a dibenzophenanthrene ring, a benzo[a]triphenylene ring, a benzochrysene ring, a fluoranthene ring, a benzo[b] fluoranthene ring or a picene ring; and Ar2 represents a monovalent residue of a naphthalene ring, a chrysene ring, a phenanthrene ring, a benzophenanthrene ring, a dibenzophenanthrene ring, a benzo[a]triphenylene ring, a benzochrysene ring, a fluoranthene ring, a benzo[b] fluoranthene ring or a picene ring; and Ar1 and Ar2 each may have independently one or plural substituent(s) selected from the group consisting of an alkyl group having 1 to about 3 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group having about 5 to about 7 ring- forming carbon atoms, a silyl group having about 3 to about 12 carbon atoms, a cyano group, a halogen atom and an aryl group having about 6 to about 16 ring-forming carbon atoms; and the phosphorescent emitter material comprises a phosphorescent organometallic complex having a substituted chemical structure represented by one of the following partial chemical structures represented by the formulae: formulae (I), (II), (III) wherein R is independently hydrogen or an alkyl substituent having 1-3 carbon atoms, and wherein at least one ring of the formula has one or more of said alkyl substituent.
