Abstract

An organic compound film is composed of a hole transporting region, a first mixed region, a light emitting region, a second mixed region, and an electron transporting region that are connected to one another. With the organic compound film thus structured, the blue organic light emitting device obtained is free from interfaces between layers which are present in the conventional laminate structure. When pigment doping is added to this device structure, a white organic light emitting device is obtained. A blue or white organic light emitting device having high light emission efficiency and long lifetime is provided by this method. When this organic light emitting device is combined with color conversion layers or color filters, a full color display device that consumes less power and lasts long can be obtained.

Claims (24)

1. A blue organic light emitting device comprising an organic compound film interposed between an anode and a cathode, the organic compound film comprising:

a hole transporting region comprising a hole transporting material on the anode;

a first mixed region comprising the hole transporting material and a host material on the hole transporting region;

a light emitting region comprising the host material and a blue light emitting material doped into the host material, on the first mixed region;

a second mixed region comprising the host material and an electron transporting material on the light emitting region; and

an electron transporting region comprising the electron transporting material on the second mixed region;

wherein the light emitting region does not include the hole transporting material and the electron transporting material.

2. A full color display device comprising:

a blue organic light emitting device according to claim 1 ; and

a member comprising a fluorescent material that is capable of absorbing blue light emitted from the blue organic light emitting device and emitting green light or red light.

3. An full color display device according to claim 2 , the full color device is included in one of the group consisting of a video camera, a digital camera, a portable computer, a personal computer, and a cellular phone.

4. The blue organic light emitting device according to claim 1 wherein said light emitting device is an active matrix type display device.

5. The blue organic light emitting device according to claim 1 , wherein the light emitting region is doped with 5 wt % of the blue light emitting material.

6. A full color display device comprising a blue organic light emitting device comprising an organic compound film interposed between an anode and a cathode, the organic compound film comprising:

a hole transporting region comprising a hole transporting material on the anode;

a first mixed region comprising the hole transporting material and a host material on the hole transporting region;

a light emitting region comprising the host material and a blue light emitting material doped into the host material, on the first mixed region;

a second mixed region comprising the host material and an electron transporting material on the light emitting region;

an electron transporting region comprising the electron transporting material on the second mixed region; and

a member comprising a fluorescent material that is capable of absorbing blue light emitted from the blue organic light emitting device and emitting green light or red light;

wherein the light emitting region does not include the hole transporting material and the electron transporting material.

7. An full color display device according to claim 6 , the full color device is included in one of the group consisting of a video camera, a digital camera, a portable computer, a personal computer, and a cellular phone.

8. The blue organic light emitting device according to claim 6 wherein said light emitting device is an active matrix type display device.

9. The blue organic light emitting device according to claim 6 , wherein the light emitting region is doped with 5 wt % of the blue light emitting material.
