[0002] Embodiments relate to a compound for an organic optoelectronic device, a composition for an organic optoelectronic device, an organic optoelectronic device, and a display device.

[0003] An organic optoelectronic device (e.g., organic optoelectronic diode) is a device that converts electrical energy into photoenergy, and vice versa.

[0004] An organic optoelectronic device may be classified as follows in accordance with its driving principles. One is a photoelectric device where excitons generated by photoenergy are separated into electrons and holes and the electrons and holes are transferred to different electrodes respectively and electrical energy is generated, and the other is a light emitting device to generate photoenergy from electrical energy by supplying a voltage or a current to electrodes.

[0005] Examples of the organic optoelectronic device may include an organic photoelectric device, an organic light emitting diode, an organic solar cell, and an organic photo conductor drum.

[0006] Among them, the organic light emitting diode (OLED) has recently drawn attention due to an increase in demand for flat panel displays. The organic light emitting diode converts electrical energy into light, and the performance of organic light emitting diode is greatly influenced by the organic materials disposed between electrodes.

[0037] Hereinafter, a compound for an organic optoelectronic device according to an embodiment is described.

[0038] The compound for an organic optoelectronic device according to an embodiment may be represented by, e.g., Chemical Formula 1.

[0039]

[0040] In Chemical Formula 1, Ar¹ may be or may include, e.g., a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C30 non-fused aryl group.

[0041] Each R¹ may independently be, e.g., hydrogen, deuterium, or an unsubstituted C6 to C12 aryl group.

[0042] R² to R⁵ may each independently be or include, e.g., hydrogen, deuterium, a cyano group, a halogen, a substituted or unsubstituted amine group, a substituted or unsubstituted C1 to C30 alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C30 aryl group, a substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C30 heterocyclic group, or a combination thereof.

[0043] m1 to m5 may each independently be, e.g., an integer of 1 to 4.

[0044] In the compound represented by Chemical Formula 1, one carbazole group is directly linked (e.g., without a linking group therebetween) to the triazine moiety in the N-direction (e.g., at the N of the carbazole group) centering on the triazine moiety, another carbazole group is linked to the triazine in the N-direction through an ortho-phenylene linking group, and a substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C30 non-fused aryl group is also bonded to the triazine moiety.

[0045] One carbazole group is directly linked to the triazine without a linking group in the N-direction, e.g., the 9 position of the carbazole group, so that it has a relatively deep LUMO energy level, which is advantageous for electron injection and movement.

[0046] In addition, another carbazole group is linked to the triazine in the N-direction, e.g., the 9 position of the carbazole group, thereby breaking the π-bonding through the C—N bond, so that the electron cloud between HOMO-LUMO may be clearly localized into a hole transport moiety and an electron transport moiety.

[0047] In an implementation, the HOMO-LUMO band gap may be widened due to the ortho-phenylene, the efficiency improvement effect may be maximized, and the steric hindrance of molecules may be increased, so that a deposition temperature may not be relatively high, which may be advantageous in the process.

[0048] In an implementation, the substituted or unsubstituted C6 to C30 non-fused aryl group is bonded to the triazine core moiety, and a low-driving, high-efficiency, and long life-span organic optoelectronic device may be manufactured by controlling the electron transport capability to the appropriate mobility and charge balance in the light emitting layer.

[0049] In an implementation, Ar¹ of Chemical Formula 1 may be, e.g., a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted biphenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted terphenyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted quaterphenyl group, or a combination thereof.

On the hole transport auxiliary layer, 400 Å-thick light emitting layer was formed by using Compound A-63 obtained in Synthesis Example 3 and Compound B-136 obtained in Synthesis Example 8 as a host simultaneously and doping 10 wt % of PhGD as a dopant by vacuum-deposition. Herein Compound A-63 and Compound B-136 were used in a weight ratio of 3:7. Subsequently, on the light emitting layer, Compound F was deposited at a thickness of 50 Å to form an electron transport auxiliary layer and Compound G and LiQ were simultaneously vacuum-deposited in a weight ratio of 1:1 to form a 300 Å-thick electron transport layer. On the electron transport layer, LiQ and Al were sequentially vacuum-deposited to be 15 Å-thick and 1,200 Å-thick, manufacturing an organic light emitting diode.

Evaluations

(1) Measurement of Current Density Change Depending on Voltage Change

[0237] The obtained organic light emitting diodes were measured regarding a current value flowing in the unit device, while increasing the voltage from 0 V to 10 V using a current-voltage meter (Keithley 2400), and the measured current value was divided by area to provide the results.

(2) Measurement of Luminance Change Depending on Voltage Change

[0238] Luminance was measured by using a luminance meter (Minolta Cs-1000A), while the voltage of the organic light emitting diodes was increased from 0 V to 10 V.

(3) Measurement of Luminous Efficiency

[0239] The current efficiency (cd/A) of the same current density (10 mA/cm²) was calculated using the luminance and current density measured from the (1) and (2).

[0240] Relative values based on the luminous efficiency of Example 1 are shown in Table 1.

[0241] Relative values based on the luminous efficiency of Example 2 are shown in Table 2.

(4) Measurement of Life-Span

[0242] T95 life-spans of the diodes were measured as a time when their luminance decreased down to 95% relative to the initial luminance (cd/m²) after emitting light with 24,000 cd/m² as the initial luminance (cd/m²) and measuring their luminance decreases depending on a time with a Polanonix life-span measurement system.

[0243] The relative values based on the T95 life-span of Example 1 are shown in Table 1.

[0244] The relative values based on the T95 life-span of Example 2 are shown in Table 2.

(5) Measurement of Driving Voltage

[0245] The driving voltage of each diode was measured at 15 mA/cm² using a current-voltmeter (Keithley 2400), and the results were obtained.

[0246] Relative values based on the driving voltage of Example 1 are shown in Table 1.
