Definitions
- the present invention relates to an organic electroluminescence (EL) element, and more particularly to a stack type multiphoton emission element (MPE element) having two or more light emitting units.
- EL organic electroluminescence
- MPE element stack type multiphoton emission element
- a general organic EL element is composed of an anode made of ITO or the like provided on a substrate, an organic layer provided on the anode, and a cathode provided on the top.
- the organic layer has a structure in which, for example, a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, and a light emitting layer are sequentially stacked from the anode side.
- light generated when electrons injected from the cathode and holes injected from the anode are recombined in the light emitting layer is extracted from the substrate side.
- the lifetime of the organic EL element is generally determined by the amount of injected charge. For this reason, when the drive current is increased to increase the initial luminance, there is a problem that the lifetime is shortened accordingly. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to increase the luminance without changing the driving current, that is, to improve the efficiency, or to realize an element configuration that can obtain the same luminance even if the driving current is decreased.
- a structure (MPE element) is proposed in which a plurality of light-emitting units composed of an organic layer having at least a light-emitting layer are disposed between an anode and a cathode via an insulating charge generation layer.
- the charge generation layer injects holes into the light emitting unit arranged on the cathode side of the charge generation layer and applies the voltage to the light emitting unit arranged on the anode side of the charge generation layer. This layer serves to inject electrons.
- the luminance [cd] is ideally unchanged without changing the luminous efficiency [lm / W].
- / A] is doubled and three light emitting units are stacked, ideally, the luminance can be tripled without changing the luminous efficiency.
- Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 3 disclose an element using a transparent conductor (ITO, IZO, or the like) as a charge generation layer.
- Patent Document 2 discloses an element using vanadium oxide (V 2 O 5 ) or rhenium 7 oxide (Re 2 O 7 ) as a charge generation layer.
- Patent Document 4 discloses a device using a metal oxide such as molybdenum oxide (MoO 3 ) or a metal salt such as iron chloride (FeCl 3 ) as a charge generation layer.
- Patent Document 5 discloses an element using a combination of an N-doped layer and a P-doped layer as a charge generation layer.
- Patent Document 6 discloses a device using a phthalocyanine compound for a charge generation layer.
- Patent Document 7 discloses a device using an electron-accepting organic material such as hexaazatriphenylene (HAT) and F4TCNQ described in Patent Document 2 as a charge generation layer.
- HAT hexaazatriphenylene
- F4TCNQ F4TCNQ
- the conventional charge generation layer has some problems. Specifically, an inorganic substance such as a metal oxide requires a high temperature for vapor deposition at the time of film formation, and thus has a problem that the efficiency of the film formation process is reduced and mass productivity is low.
- a transparent conductor such as ITO has high electrical conductivity, current leakage between pixels through the charge generation layer may occur. Therefore, when a desired pixel is caused to emit light, adjacent pixels may also emit light. This phenomenon becomes a problem particularly in a display in which the organic EL element emits white light and a color filter is provided on the element to extract each color of RGB.
- the color reproducibility is lowered because the color purity is greatly lowered due to the color mixture due to the light emission of the adjacent pixels.

Abstract
Description
この問題を解決するためには、駆動電流を変えずに輝度を上げる、即ち効率を改善するか、或いは駆動電流を下げても同様の輝度を得ることができる素子構成を実現する必要がある。
電荷発生層を介して発光ユニットを積層させたスタック型の有機EL素子では、2つの発光ユニットを積層した場合には、理想的には発光効率[lm/W]は変ること無しに輝度[cd/A]を2倍に、3つの発光ユニットを積層した場合には、理想的には発光効率は変ること無しに輝度を3倍にすることが可能であるとされている。
特許文献2には、酸化バナジウム(V2O5)や7酸化レニウム(Re2O7)を電荷発生層に使用した素子が開示されている。特許文献4には、酸化モリブデン(MoO3)のような金属酸化物や、塩化鉄(FeCl3)等の金属塩を電荷発生層に使用した素子が開示されている。特許文献5には、Nドープ層とPドープ層の組み合わせを電荷発生層に使用した素子が開示されている。特許文献6には、フタロシアニン化合物を電荷発生層に使用した素子が開示されている。特許文献7には、ヘキサアザトリフェニレン(HAT)及び特許文献2に記載のF4TCNQ等の電子受容性有機物を電荷発生層に使用した素子が開示されている。
具体的に、金属酸化物等の無機物は、成膜時の蒸着に高い温度が必要であるため、成膜プロセスの効率が低下し量産性が低いという問題がある。
また、ITO等の透明導電体は高い電気伝導度を持つため、電荷発生層を通じた画素間の電流リークが発生することがある。従って、所望の画素を発光させたときに隣接する画素も発光することがある。この現象は、特に、有機EL素子を白色発光させ、素子上にカラーフィルターを設けてRGB各色を取り出す方式のディスプレイにおいて問題となる。即ち、隣接画素発光による混色が起こることにより色純度が大幅に低下するため色再現性の低下を招く。
また、スパッタリング等による透明導電体成膜時に、発生するプラズマ粒子による下地となる有機層へのダメージも懸念される。

実施例1
図1に示す層構成を有する、発光を基板側から取り出すボトム発光方式の有機EL素子を作製した。尚、実施例1で使用した有機化合物の構造を以下に示す。尚、電荷輸送層のP層で使用した化合物である(P1)~(P4)の合成は、WO2010/064655及びWO2009/011327を参照して実施した。
陽極上に、正孔注入層として、上記の構造を有するヘキサニトリルアザトリフェニレン(HAT)を10nmの膜厚で形成した。
正孔注入層上に、正孔輸送層、青色発光層及び電子輸送層からなる青色発光ユニット(第1の発光ユニット)を形成した。
具体的に、正孔輸送層として上記α-NPDを真空蒸着法により90nm(蒸着速度0.2~0.4nm/sec)の膜厚で形成した。
続いて、正孔輸送層上に、青色発光層を形成した。発光層のホストには上記式(1)の化合物を、ドーパントには式(2)の化合物を使用した。ドーパントの添加量が膜厚比で5%となるように真空蒸着し膜厚30nmの発光層とした。
次いで、青色発光層上に、電子輸送層として、上記Alq3を30nmの膜厚で形成した。
青色発光ユニットに続けて電荷発生層を形成した。
発光ユニットの電子輸送層上に、N層としてAlq3とLiの混合層を10nmの膜厚で形成した。続けて、P層として上記式(P1)で表される化合物を10nmの膜厚で形成した。
電荷発生層に続いて、第2の青色発光ユニットを形成した。形成方法は上述した第1の青色発光ユニットと同様にした。
その後、LiFを真空蒸着法により約0.3nm(蒸着速度~0.01nm/sec)の膜厚で形成し、次いで、Alを真空蒸着法により200nmの膜厚で形成し、2層構造の陰極を形成し、有機EL素子を作製した。
電荷発生層及び第2の青色発光ユニットを形成せずに陰極を形成した他は実施例1と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。本例の素子は発光ユニットを1つのみ有する素子であるため、タンデム型の有機EL素子ではない。
電荷発生層のP層を形成しなかった他は、実施例1と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。
P層として上記式(P1)の代わりに酸化モリブデン(MoO3)を使用した他は、実施例1と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。
実施例1~3と比較例2の結果より、電荷発生層において、陰極側発光ユニットとの界面層に化合物(P1)~(P3)を含む層がない場合は、効率は単ユニット素子である比較例1と変わらず、MPE素子として機能しないことがわかった。
実施例1~3と比較例3の結果より、電荷発生層において、陰極側発光ユニットとの界面層にMoO3を用いた場合は、MPE素子として機能するものの、実施例1~3に比べて電圧が高くなった。これにより電荷発生層として化合物(P1)~(P3)が優れていることがわかった。
N層に含窒素複素環化合物である式(9-23)を使用した実施例4~6では、さらに、駆動電圧が低下することが確認できた。
実施例7
解像度が100ppiとなるように下部電極をパターン化したガラス基板を使用し、第1の青色発光ユニットに代えて、下記の黄色発光ユニットを形成した他は、実施例1と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。
・パターン電極基板の作製
ガラス基板上に平坦化絶縁膜を形成した。平坦化絶縁膜材料はポジ型感光性の絶縁材料であれば特に限定しないが、ここではポリイミドを2.0umの厚さで形成した。基板上にポリイミドをスピンコート法により塗布し、露光装置にて露光を行い、パドル式現像装置にて現像し、所定の形状にパターニングした。ポリイミドを硬化させるためクリーンベーク炉にて本焼成し、厚さ2.0μmの平坦化絶縁膜を形成した。
次に、平坦化絶縁膜上に下部電極を形成した。平坦化絶縁膜上に、ITOを240nm成膜し、通常のリソグラフィ技術を用いて所定の形状にパターニング、エッチングして下部電極を形成した。
パターン化した下部電極(ITO)間に、ポリイミドを2.0μmの厚さで形成し電極間絶縁層を形成した。電極間絶縁層は、基板上にポリイミドをスピンコート法により塗布し、露光装置にて露光を行い、パドル式現像装置にて現像した。これで感光性絶縁材料であるポリイミドが所定の形状にパターニングされたことになる。次に、ポリイミドを硬化させるためクリーンベーク炉にて本焼成し電極間絶縁層を形成した。
・黄色発光ユニットの形成
上記ヘキサニトリルアザトリフェニレン(HAT)からなる正孔注入層上に、正孔輸送層、黄色発光層及び電子輸送層からなる黄色発光ユニット(第1の発光ユニット)を形成した。
正孔輸送層として、上記α-NPDを真空蒸着法により30nm(蒸着速度0.2~0.4nm/sec)の膜厚で形成した。
続いて、正孔輸送層上に、黄色発光層を形成した。発光層のホストには下記式(3)で表される化合物を、ドーパントには式(4)で表される化合物を使用した。ドーパントの添加量が膜厚比で5%となるように真空蒸着し膜厚30nmの発光層とした。
次いで、黄色発光層上に、電子輸送層として、上記Alq3を20nmの膜厚で形成した。
以下、実施例1と同様にして電荷発生層と第2の発光ユニットを形成し、有機EL素子を作製した。
P層として上記式(P1)の代わりに実施例2で使用した式(P2)で表される化合物を使用した他は、実施例7と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。
P層として上記式(P1)の代わりに実施例3で使用した式(P3)で表される化合物を使用した他は、実施例7と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。
P層として上記式(P1)の代わりに、式(P1)とα-NPDからなる混合層[(P1:α-NPD=1:1、重量比)]を使用した他は、実施例7と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。
P層として上記式(P1)からなる単一層の代わりに、式(P1)からなる層と式(P1)と上記α-NPDからなる混合層[(P1:α-NPD=1:1、重量比)]の積層体を使用した他は、実施例7と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。尚、式(P1)層単独層の膜厚を5nm、式(P1)と上記α-NPDからなる混合層の膜厚を5nmとした。
N層としてAlq3の代わりに式(9-23)で表される化合物を使用した他は、実施例7~9と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。
電荷発生層及び第2の青色発光ユニットを形成せずに陰極を形成した他は実施例4と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。本例の素子は黄色発光ユニットを1つのみ有する素子であるため、タンデム型の有機EL素子ではない。
電荷発生層のP層を形成しなかった他は、実施例7と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。
P層として上記式(P1)の代わりに下記に示すHATを使用した他は、実施例7と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。
P層として上記式(P1)の代わりにITOを使用した他は、実施例7と同様にして有機EL素子を作製した。
結果を表2に示す。
ガラス基板上の開口部となる箇所に、RGBそれぞれのカラーフィルターを順番に形成し、その上に、実施例7と同様にして、平坦化絶縁膜を形成し、カラーフィルターの凹凸を平坦化した。これにより、カラーフィルターを有するガラス基板を得た。以後、実施例7と同様にしてパターン電極基板を作製し、さらに、発光ユニットを形成した。
作製した素子は、パッシブ方式の駆動が可能になるよう、上部電極、下部電極を配線し、RGBそれぞれの画素が個々に発光できるようにした。これによりRGBそれぞれの単色での発光が可能となる。
尚、NTSC比とは、表示装置の色再現範囲がアメリカNational Television System Committee(NTSC)により定められた標準方式の3原色、赤(0.670,0.330)、緑(0.210,0.710)、青(0.140,0.080)により囲まれる面積に対する比(単位は%)である。図5にXYZ表色系色度図においてNTSCが定めた赤、緑、青の色度座標を結んで得られる領域を示す。本領域を100%する。
結果を表2に示す。
実施例7~9、12と比較例5の結果より、電荷発生層において、陰極側発光ユニットとの界面層に上記化合物(P1)~(P4)を含む層がない場合は、陽極側の第1発光ユニットである黄色発光ユニットしか発光せず、MPE素子として機能しないことがわかった。
実施例7~9、12と比較例6及び比較例7の結果より、電荷発生層において、陰極側発光ユニットとの界面層にHAT又はITOを用いた場合は、MPE素子として機能するものの、実施例4に比べて、カラーフィルターを設けてディスプレイパネルを作製した際に、色再現性においてNTSC比の低下が見られた。これはHAT及びITOの抵抗値が低すぎるために、キャリアが電荷発生層を経由して隣接画素までリークし、隣接画素が発光するために、赤色、緑色又は青色の単色表示時において各色の色純度の低下を引き起こしたことによると考えられる。
以上から、スタック型白色素子において、電荷発生層に上記化合物(P1)~(P4)を含む層を採用することによって、混色の少ない、色再現性の高い有機ELディスプレイパネルの作製が可能であることがわかった。
また、実施例10、実施例11ともに、黄色発光ユニット及び青色発光ユニット両方から発光し、実施例7と同様の白色発光が得られた。これにより、(P1)とα-NPDの混合層、又は(P1)と、(P1)とα-NPDの混合層の積層膜を電荷発生層として利用したタンデム素子はMPE素子として機能し、スタック型白色素子の作製が可能であることがわかった。また、カラーフィルターを設けてディスプレイパネルを作製した際の色再現性においてNTSC比も良好であり、隣接画素への電流リークが従来の電荷発生層構造よりも抑制され、高い色再現性が実現できることがわかった。
N層に含窒素複素環化合物である式(9-23)を使用した実施例13~15では、さらに、駆動電圧が低下することが確認できた。
実施例7~9、比較例6,7のP層の膜厚を、それぞれ30nmに変更した他は、同様にして有機EL素子を作製し、評価した。
また、実施例19として、P層材料を(P4)として実施例13と同様の素子を作製した。結果を表3に示す。
また、MoO3では高電圧化が見られるが、上記化合物(P1)~(P4)では大幅な高電圧化は見られないため、膜厚を厚くした場合にも電荷発生層として良好な特性が得られることがわかった。
実施例7~9、比較例6,7の解像度を、1000ppiに変更した他は、同様にして有機EL素子を作製し、評価した。
また、実施例23として、P層材料を(P4)として実施例20と同様の素子を作製した。結果を表4に示す。
