Electroluminescent device
View Patent ↗An organic electroluminescent device comprising a pair of electrodes and a light emitting layer, a hole transport layer containing a hole transporting material, and an electron transport layer provided between the pair of electrodes wherein, the light emitting layer contains at least two host materials and at least one red phosphorescent material, and the hole transporting material in the hole transport layer has a small ionization potential than the two host materials in the light emitting layer.
1. An organic electroluminescent device comprising a pair of electrodes and a light emitting layer, a hole transport layer containing a hole transporting material, and an electron transport layer provided between the pair of electrodes wherein:
all of the host materials in the light emitting layer are non-metal-complex compounds and at least one of the host materials in the light emitting layer is a compound having the formula (H-II)
wherein:
X E represents =N—Ra wherein Ra represents an aryl group;
Z E represents an atomic group necessary to form a pyridine ring;
B represents a benzene ring; and
m is 3, and
wherein
the light emitting layer contacts the hole transport layer and contains at least two host materials and at least one red phosphorescent material which is an ortho-metalated iridium complex,
the hole transporting material in the hole transport layer has a smaller ionization potential than the two host materials in the light emitting layer, and
the at least one red phosphorescent material has a maximum emission wavelength of 550 to 700 nm.
2. The organic electroluminescent device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one red phosphorescent material in the light emitting layer has a lowest triplet state energy level of 167.6 kJ/mol to 230.5 kJ/mol.
