Description

本発明は、蛍光材料、及びそれを用いた光デバイスに関する。本発明の蛍光材料は、優れた耐熱性を有し可視域の広い波長域にわたる蛍光発光スペクトルを示すものであり、白色又は白色性の高い発光色を示す発光デバイス用材料として使用可能である。   The present invention relates to a fluorescent material and an optical device using the fluorescent material. The fluorescent material of the present invention has excellent heat resistance and exhibits a fluorescence emission spectrum over a wide visible wavelength range, and can be used as a material for a light emitting device that exhibits white or high whiteness emission color.

近年、有機エレクトロルミネッセンス(EL)素子や、発光型の空間光変調素子、波長変換素子等に使用される有機発光材料として、種々の低分子化合物や高分子化合物が開発されている。発光デバイス等の製造において、低分子化合物を用いる場合、製造プロセスが真空蒸着方式にほぼ制約されるのに対して、高分子化合物は、溶液状態として製膜又はインクジェットプリント方式等により製造できることから、製造コストを安くすることができるという利点を有している。また、高分子化合物は、微細加工なしに微小な塗り分けができる点、そして厚膜を容易に製膜できる等の優れた特徴を有している。そのため、高効率な蛍光発光を示し、かつ発光波長の制御が容易な高分子系の発光材料の開発が望まれている。   In recent years, various low molecular weight compounds and polymer compounds have been developed as organic light emitting materials used for organic electroluminescence (EL) elements, light emitting spatial light modulation elements, wavelength conversion elements and the like. In the production of light emitting devices and the like, when using a low molecular compound, the production process is almost restricted to the vacuum deposition method, whereas the polymer compound can be produced as a solution state by film formation or an inkjet printing method, The manufacturing cost can be reduced. In addition, the polymer compound has excellent features such as the ability to perform minute coating without fine processing and the ability to easily form a thick film. Therefore, it is desired to develop a high-molecular light-emitting material that exhibits high-efficiency fluorescence and can easily control the emission wavelength.

高分子系発光材料としては、ポリ-p-フェニレンやポリフェニレンビニレン等のπ共役型高分子が知られている。しかし、このようなπ共役型高分子は、耐熱性や耐環境性(化学的安定性)が十分でなく、また、製膜や微細加工が容易ではないという問題があった。一方、代表的な耐熱性高分子であるポリイミドは、優れた耐熱性や電気特性を有しており、前駆体であるポリアミド酸が製膜等の加工性に優れていることから、表示用デバイス材料としての用途が期待されている。例えば、非特許文献1には、主鎖や側鎖に蛍光性のフリル基を導入した、青色の蛍光発光を示すポリイミドが開示されており、また、特許文献1及び特許文献2には、発光機能あるいは電荷輸送機能を有するポリイミドを用いた有機EL素子が開示されている。しかし、上記特許文献及び非特許文献に開示されたポリイミドの蛍光発光は、ポリイミドの主鎖又は側鎖に導入された蛍光性官能基によるものであり、また、その蛍光強度は、ポリイミド分子間の強い相互作用と、それに伴う濃度消失によって、同一の蛍光性官能基を有する低分子化合物の蛍光強度に比べると、その蛍光強度は非常に低いものである。   As polymer light-emitting materials, π-conjugated polymers such as poly-p-phenylene and polyphenylene vinylene are known. However, such a π-conjugated polymer has a problem that heat resistance and environmental resistance (chemical stability) are not sufficient, and film formation and microfabrication are not easy. On the other hand, polyimide, which is a typical heat-resistant polymer, has excellent heat resistance and electrical properties, and the precursor polyamic acid has excellent processability such as film formation. Use as a material is expected. For example, Non-Patent Document 1 discloses a polyimide exhibiting blue fluorescent light emission in which a fluorescent furyl group is introduced into the main chain or side chain, and Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 disclose light emission. An organic EL element using a polyimide having a function or a charge transport function is disclosed. However, the fluorescence emission of polyimide disclosed in the above patent document and non-patent document is due to the fluorescent functional group introduced into the main chain or side chain of the polyimide, and the fluorescence intensity is between polyimide molecules. Due to the strong interaction and the accompanying disappearance of concentration, the fluorescence intensity is very low compared to the fluorescence intensity of the low-molecular compound having the same fluorescent functional group.

また、非特許文献2等に開示されているように、ポリイミド自体が紫外線の照射により、可視光の蛍光発光を示すことは、従来から知られていた。この蛍光は、ポリイミドの分子構造中のジアミン部分(電子供与性)と酸無水物部分(電子吸引性)との間で形成される電荷移動錯体(CTC)に起因する蛍光(CT蛍光)である(例えば、非特許文献3参照。)。しかし、芳香族ポリイミドの場合には、CT相互作用が強くなり、無輻射失活過程が増加するため、その蛍光強度は弱くなる。代表的な全芳香族ポリイミドフィルムであるピロメリット酸無水物と4,4’−ジアミノジフェニルエーテルから合成されるポリイミド(PMDA/ODA)においては、通常の蛍光分光計では観測が困難なほどの弱い蛍光しか観測されない。また、非特許文献4には、全芳香族ポリイミドでも、ビフェニルテトラカルボン酸無水物とパラフェニレンジアミンから合成されるポリイミド(BPDA/PDA)は相対的に強い蛍光を示すことが報告されている。しかし、既存の蛍光性化合物に比べると、その蛍光強度は非常に弱く、量子収率は1%以下であると考えられる。     In addition, as disclosed in Non-Patent Document 2 and the like, it has been conventionally known that polyimide itself exhibits visible fluorescence by irradiation with ultraviolet rays. This fluorescence is fluorescence (CT fluorescence) resulting from a charge transfer complex (CTC) formed between a diamine portion (electron donating property) and an acid anhydride portion (electron attracting property) in the molecular structure of polyimide. (For example, refer nonpatent literature 3.). However, in the case of aromatic polyimide, the CT interaction becomes strong and the non-radiation deactivation process increases, so the fluorescence intensity becomes weak. In a polyimide (PMDA / ODA) synthesized from pyromellitic anhydride, which is a typical wholly aromatic polyimide film, and 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether, weak fluorescence that is difficult to observe with a normal fluorescence spectrometer Only observed. Further, Non-Patent Document 4 reports that polyimide (BPDA / PDA) synthesized from biphenyltetracarboxylic anhydride and paraphenylenediamine exhibits relatively strong fluorescence even in wholly aromatic polyimide. However, compared to existing fluorescent compounds, the fluorescence intensity is very weak, and the quantum yield is considered to be 1% or less.

また、特許文献3には、三次元的な構造を有し、芳香環に直接フッ素が結合した芳香族酸二無水物と脂環式構造を有するジアミンとからなる構造単位を有するポリイミドを用いることで、優れた蛍光発光特性(蛍光強度の強さ、緑色から赤色領域における蛍光波長の制御性、蛍光強度の長期安定性)を有するとともに、耐熱性、化学的安定性、製膜性に優れた蛍光性ポリイミドが得られることが開示されている。また、非特許文献5には、三次元的な構造を有し、電子受容性の低い酸二無水物と脂環式構造を有するジアミンとからなる構造単位を有するポリイミドを用いることで、優れた青色蛍光発光特性を有し、耐熱性、化学的安定性、製膜性に優れた蛍光性ポリイミドが得られることが開示されている。上記特許文献3及び非特許文献5に開示された蛍光性ポリイミドは、蛍光強度が強いものであるが、基本的には単色発光性のものである。   Patent Document 3 uses a polyimide having a three-dimensional structure and having a structural unit composed of an aromatic dianhydride having fluorine directly bonded to an aromatic ring and a diamine having an alicyclic structure. In addition to excellent fluorescence emission characteristics (intensity of fluorescence intensity, controllability of fluorescence wavelength in the green to red range, long-term stability of fluorescence intensity), it also has excellent heat resistance, chemical stability, and film formability It is disclosed that a fluorescent polyimide is obtained. In addition, Non-Patent Document 5 is superior in that it has a three-dimensional structure and uses a polyimide having a structural unit composed of an acid dianhydride having a low electron accepting property and a diamine having an alicyclic structure. It is disclosed that a fluorescent polyimide having blue fluorescent emission characteristics and excellent in heat resistance, chemical stability, and film forming property can be obtained. The fluorescent polyimides disclosed in Patent Document 3 and Non-Patent Document 5 have strong fluorescence intensity, but are basically monochromatic.

照明用途やディスプレイのバックライト等には白色性が必要とされ、このような白色性は、光の3原色(青、緑、赤)に相当するそれぞれの蛍光発光を組み合わせることにより得ることができる。しかし、異なる種類の蛍光性ポリイミドは必ずしも相溶ではないため、容易に組み合わせることができず、また3層を重ねて製膜することは工程が煩雑となる。結果として、白色性の発光を得るためには、単一層のポリイミドで白色性の高い蛍光を高い量子収率で発することが期待される。
従って、本発明の目的は、白色性の高い優れた蛍光発光特性(蛍光強度の強さ、蛍光強度の長期安定性)を有するとともに、耐熱性、化学的安定性、製膜性に優れた白色蛍光材料を提供することにある。
Whiteness is required for lighting applications, display backlights, and the like, and such whiteness can be obtained by combining fluorescent emission corresponding to the three primary colors of light (blue, green, red). . However, since different types of fluorescent polyimides are not necessarily compatible with each other, they cannot be easily combined, and forming a film by stacking three layers makes the process complicated. As a result, in order to obtain white light emission, it is expected that single layer polyimide emits white fluorescent light with a high quantum yield.
Therefore, the object of the present invention is a white having excellent fluorescence emission characteristics (fluorescence intensity, long-term stability of fluorescence intensity) with high whiteness, and excellent heat resistance, chemical stability, and film-forming property. It is to provide a fluorescent material.

本発明者らは、上記目的を達成するため、鋭意検討を重ねた結果、特定の繰り返し単位からなるポリイミドが上記目的を達成し得るという知見を得、その知見を基に鋭意検討を重ねた結果、本発明を完成するに至った。   As a result of intensive studies to achieve the above object, the present inventors have obtained the knowledge that a polyimide composed of a specific repeating unit can achieve the above object, and the results of intensive investigation based on the knowledge The present invention has been completed.

本発明は、上記知見に基づいてなされたものであり、下記一般式(1)で表わされる繰り返し単位であって、該繰り返し単位からなるポリイミドが380〜520nmに蛍光ピークを有する繰り返し単位と、下記一般式(2)で表わされる繰り返し単位であって、該繰り返し単位からなるポリイミドが560〜760nmに蛍光ピークを有する繰り返し単位とを有するポリイミドを含有する蛍光材料を提供するものである。

本発明の蛍光材料は、上記一般式(1)で表わされる繰り返し単位、及び上記一般式(2)で表わされる繰り返し単位を有するポリイミド共重合体を含み、一般式(1)中のRが4価の芳香族基であり、吸水性が低く、蛍光性の光学用デバイスとして用いるのに好適である。また、一般式(1)及び一般式(2)中のRに脂環式構造を有するので、ポリイミド分子内及び分子間の電荷移動相互作用が抑制される。従って、本発明の蛍光材料は高い蛍光強度を発現できる。上記一般式(1)で表わされる繰り返し単位を有するポリイミドは紫外長波長域から可視短波長〜中波長域にかけての蛍光発光、すなわち紫〜青〜緑色の蛍光発光(蛍光ピーク波長380〜520nm、好ましくは400〜450nm)を示す。一方、上記一般式(2)で表わされる繰り返し単位を有するポリイミドは、赤色の鮮やかな蛍光発光(蛍光ピーク波長560〜7260nm好ましくは650〜700nm)を示す。 The fluorescent material of the present invention includes a polyimide copolymer having a repeating unit represented by the above general formula (1) and a repeating unit represented by the above general formula (2), wherein R 1 in the general formula (1) is It is a tetravalent aromatic group, has low water absorption, and is suitable for use as a fluorescent optical device. Further, since the R 2 of the general formulas (1) and (2) having an alicyclic structure, charge transfer interactions between polyimide intramolecular and are suppressed. Therefore, the fluorescent material of the present invention can exhibit high fluorescence intensity. The polyimide having the repeating unit represented by the general formula (1) is fluorescent emission from the ultraviolet long wavelength region to the visible short wavelength to medium wavelength region, that is, purple to blue to green fluorescent emission (fluorescence peak wavelength of 380 to 520 nm, preferably Represents 400 to 450 nm). On the other hand, the polyimide having the repeating unit represented by the general formula (2) exhibits bright red fluorescence (fluorescence peak wavelength of 560 to 7260 nm, preferably 650 to 700 nm).

これらの共重合体の発光機構を図1に示す。
これらの共重合体が白色性の高い蛍光発光を示すのは、構成成分である一般式(1)で表わされる繰り返し単位、及び一般式(2)で表わされる繰り返し単位の蛍光発光機構が独立のものとして残っているだけではなく、前者の蛍光スペクトルが後者の励起スペクトル(蛍光発光を引き起こすための光吸収能のスペクトル)と重畳しているために、前者の光照射によって獲得されたエネルギーが後者へ移動し、結果として長波長域(黄〜赤色域)での蛍光発光も惹起することに由来する(図1に示す発光機構)。すなわち、構成成分である一般式(1)で表わされる繰り返し単位を波長280〜370nmの紫外光で照射すると、一般式(1)で表わされる繰り返し単位の酸二無水物部分に存在する電子は、まず励起状態1に励起され、その励起状態からの直接的な発光緩和として波長380〜480nmの蛍光を示す。しかし、そのエネルギーのほとんどは、励起状態での分子間あるいは分子内でのエネルギー移動機構を通じて一般式(2)で表わされる繰り返し単位に移動し、この励起状態2からの発光緩和として波長500〜700nmの蛍光を示す。この励起状態2は、一般式(2)で表わされる繰り返し単位を紫外光あるいは可視短波長光で照射した場合の垂直励起状態に相当し、この励起によっても電荷分布がそれほど変化しないため局所励起状態(Locally Excited State)と呼ばれる。一方、一般式(2)で表わされる繰り返し単位は、同一分子間で相互作用し会合体の励起状態(Excited Aggregate State)を形成することが可能であり、その励起状態3のエネルギー順位は第一励起状態や第二励起状態よりも低い。分子間あるいは分子内でのエネルギー移動機構を通じて、励起状態2から励起状態3へのエネルギー移動が引き続いて惹起され、この励起状態3からの蛍光発光は波長550〜800nmに観測される。結果として、非占軌道にある電子を励起状態1のみに励起することで、励起状態1から励起状態2そして励起状態3への連続的なエネルギー移動が起こり、それぞれの励起状態からの蛍光発光が合算されて観測されるため、蛍光スペクトルが可視域全体に広がって白色性の高い蛍光発光を示す。従って、一般式(1)で表わされる繰り返し単位の蛍光と一般式(2)で表わされる繰り返し単位の蛍光の成分比が、共重合体の蛍光スペクトル形状を決定する最も重要な要素であり、したがって白色度の高い蛍光発光を得るためには、2成分の構造式の組み合わせに応じてその共重合比が精密に制御される必要がある。また、白色の蛍光を高効率的で発光させるための最適の励起波長は、一般式(1)で表わされる繰り返し単位単独での励起波長にほぼ等しくなるので、白色蛍光ポリイミドの励起波長を制御するためには、一般式(1)で表わされる繰り返し単位の構造を、所望の励起波長を有するものとする必要がある。
The light emission mechanism of these copolymers is shown in FIG.
These copolymers exhibit fluorescence with high whiteness because the fluorescent light emission mechanism of the repeating unit represented by the general formula (1) and the repeating unit represented by the general formula (2) is independent. Not only remains, but because the former fluorescence spectrum is superimposed on the latter excitation spectrum (the spectrum of light absorption ability to cause fluorescence emission), the energy acquired by the former light irradiation is the latter. As a result, fluorescence emission in the long wavelength region (yellow to red region) is also induced (the light emission mechanism shown in FIG. 1). That is, when the repeating unit represented by the general formula (1) as a constituent component is irradiated with ultraviolet light having a wavelength of 280 to 370 nm, the electrons present in the acid dianhydride part of the repeating unit represented by the general formula (1) are: First, it is excited to the excited state 1 and shows fluorescence having a wavelength of 380 to 480 nm as direct light emission relaxation from the excited state. However, most of the energy is transferred to the repeating unit represented by the general formula (2) through an energy transfer mechanism between molecules in the excited state or within the molecule, and a wavelength of 500 to 700 nm as emission relaxation from the excited state 2. The fluorescence of is shown. This excited state 2 corresponds to a vertical excited state in the case where the repeating unit represented by the general formula (2) is irradiated with ultraviolet light or visible short wavelength light. (Locally Excited State). On the other hand, the repeating unit represented by the general formula (2) can interact between the same molecules to form an excited aggregate state, and the energy level of the excited state 3 is first. It is lower than the excited state and the second excited state. The energy transfer from the excited state 2 to the excited state 3 is subsequently induced through an intermolecular or intramolecular energy transfer mechanism, and the fluorescence emission from the excited state 3 is observed at a wavelength of 550 to 800 nm. As a result, continuous excitation of energy from excited state 1 to excited state 2 and excited state 3 occurs by exciting electrons in the unoccupied orbital state only to excited state 1, and fluorescence emission from each excited state occurs. Since they are added together and observed, the fluorescence spectrum spreads over the entire visible range and exhibits high whiteness fluorescence. Therefore, the component ratio of the fluorescence of the repeating unit represented by the general formula (1) and the fluorescence of the repeating unit represented by the general formula (2) is the most important factor determining the fluorescence spectrum shape of the copolymer. In order to obtain fluorescence with high whiteness, the copolymerization ratio needs to be precisely controlled according to the combination of the structural formulas of the two components. In addition, the optimum excitation wavelength for emitting white fluorescence with high efficiency is substantially equal to the excitation wavelength of the repeating unit represented by the general formula (1) alone, so the excitation wavelength of the white fluorescent polyimide is controlled. For this purpose, the structure of the repeating unit represented by the general formula (1) needs to have a desired excitation wavelength.

上記一般式(1)で表わされる繰り返し単位と、上記一般式(2)で表わされる繰り返し単位との共重合比は、好ましくは97:3〜99.99:0.01(モル比)であり、更に好ましくは99.5:0.5〜99.99:0.01(モル比)である。共重合比を上記範囲とするには、ポリイミドを合成する際に、上記一般式(1)で表わされる繰り返し単位を得るための酸二無水物、上記一般式(2)で表わされる繰り返し単位を得るための酸二無水物の使用量を調整することによって達成することができる。   The copolymerization ratio of the repeating unit represented by the general formula (1) and the repeating unit represented by the general formula (2) is preferably 97: 3 to 99.99: 0.01 (molar ratio). More preferably, it is 99.5: 0.5 to 99.99: 0.01 (molar ratio). In order to make the copolymerization ratio within the above range, when synthesizing polyimide, an acid dianhydride for obtaining a repeating unit represented by the above general formula (1), a repeating unit represented by the above general formula (2) It can be achieved by adjusting the amount of acid dianhydride used to obtain.

以下に、本発明の蛍光材料を用いた、フィルムの製造方法の一例を示す。
まず、極性有機溶媒中で、3,3’,4,4’,−ビフェニルテトラカルボン酸二無水物と3,4,9,10-ペリレンテトラカルボン酸二無水物の任意のモル比の混合物を4,4’−ジアミノジシクロヘキシルメタンとを重縮合し、ポリアミド酸溶液を得る。この時、N,O−ビス(トリメチルシリル)アセトアミドやN,O−ビス(トリメチルシリル)トリフルオロアセトアミドのようなシリルエステル化物を混合すると、原料の会合体や生成物の不溶化(ゲル化)が起こりにくくなる。用いられる極性有機溶媒としては、例えば、N−メチル−4−ピロリドン、N,N−ジメチルアセトアミド、N,N−ジメチルホルムアミド、ジメチルスルホキシド等が挙げられる。重合溶液中の原料化合物の濃度は、好ましくは5〜40重量%であり、更に好ましくは10〜25重量%である。この反応を下記式に示す。
Below, an example of the manufacturing method of a film using the fluorescent material of this invention is shown.
First, in a polar organic solvent, a mixture of 3,3 ′, 4,4 ′,-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride and 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride in an arbitrary molar ratio is prepared. Polycondensation with 4,4′-diaminodicyclohexylmethane gives a polyamic acid solution. At this time, when a silyl esterified product such as N, O-bis (trimethylsilyl) acetamide or N, O-bis (trimethylsilyl) trifluoroacetamide is mixed, insolubilization (gelation) of the raw material aggregates and products hardly occurs. Become. Examples of the polar organic solvent used include N-methyl-4-pyrrolidone, N, N-dimethylacetamide, N, N-dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide and the like. The concentration of the raw material compound in the polymerization solution is preferably 5 to 40% by weight, more preferably 10 to 25% by weight. This reaction is shown in the following formula.

Figure 2008274165

上述のようにして得られたポリアミド酸溶液を、溶融石英板上に回転塗布し、窒素雰囲気下で、例えば70℃程度の温度と300℃程度の温度の2段階で加熱し、イミド化する。この反応を下記式に示す。加熱の例としては、例えば、70℃で1時間、300℃で1時間30分のように行ってもよい。イミド化後、空気中あるいは水中で石英板から剥離することによりポリイミドフィルムを得る。石英板からの剥離が困難な場合は、ポリアミド酸溶液をアルミ板上に回転塗布し、熱イミド化後、基板ごと10%塩酸に浸しアルミ板を溶解することにより、ポリイミドフィルムを得る。   The polyamic acid solution obtained as described above is spin-coated on a fused quartz plate, and heated in two stages, for example, at a temperature of about 70 ° C. and a temperature of about 300 ° C. in a nitrogen atmosphere, and imidized. This reaction is shown in the following formula. As an example of heating, for example, the heating may be performed at 70 ° C. for 1 hour and at 300 ° C. for 1 hour 30 minutes. After imidation, a polyimide film is obtained by peeling from the quartz plate in air or water. When peeling from the quartz plate is difficult, the polyimide film is obtained by spin-coating the polyamic acid solution on the aluminum plate, thermal imidization, and then immersing the substrate together with 10% hydrochloric acid to dissolve the aluminum plate.

ポリアミド酸の合成方法としては、上記のように極性有機溶媒を用いて合成する方法の他、原料である酸二無水物とジアミン化合物の昇華性を利用して、真空蒸着重合法により基板上で合成する方法が挙げられる。この場合のポリイミドフィルムの合成方法としては、具体的には、酸二無水物モノマーとジアミンモノマーを、真空槽内でそれぞれの蒸着源を加熱して蒸発させ、基板上でポリアミド酸を合成し、さらにこれを不活性気体中で加熱して、脱水閉環することによりポリイミド薄膜を得ることができる。また、必要に応じてピリジン/無水酢酸などの閉環触媒と脱水剤の組み合わせによる化学処理を行ってイミド化してもよい。   As a method for synthesizing the polyamic acid, in addition to the method of synthesizing using a polar organic solvent as described above, the sublimation property of the acid dianhydride and the diamine compound as raw materials is used to form a polyamic acid on a substrate by a vacuum deposition polymerization method. The method of synthesizing is mentioned. As a method for synthesizing the polyimide film in this case, specifically, an acid dianhydride monomer and a diamine monomer are evaporated by heating respective vapor deposition sources in a vacuum chamber, and a polyamic acid is synthesized on the substrate. Furthermore, a polyimide thin film can be obtained by heating this in inert gas and carrying out dehydration ring closure. Further, if necessary, imidization may be performed by chemical treatment with a combination of a ring-closing catalyst such as pyridine / acetic anhydride and a dehydrating agent.
