Abstract

The present invention relates to a polycyclic compound which can be employed in various organic layers included in an organic light emitting device and contains R substituted with at least one deuterium (D), and to an organic light emitting device which has a long lifespan by comprising same to significantly improve lifespan characteristics thereof. According to the present invention, an organic light emitting device having a long lifespan can be implemented, and thus can be industrially advantageously used in various lighting and display devices, such as a flat panel display device, a flexible display device, a monochromatic or white flat panel lighting device, a monochromatic or white flexible lighting device, a vehicle display device, and a virtual or augmented reality display device.
