Abstract

A red phosphorescent compound of Formula I: wherein is and R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are as defined in the specification.

Claims (24)

1. An organic electroluminescent (EL) device comprising a sequential laminate of

an anode,

a hole injecting layer,

a hole transport layer,

an electron transport layer,

an electron injecting layer, and

a cathode,

with a light-emitting layer interposed between the hole transport layer and the electron transport layer,

wherein a red phosphorescent compound is used as a dopant for the light-emitting layer,

wherein the red phosphorescent compound is selected from the group consisting of A-1 to A-12 and B-1 to B-12 as follows, and

wherein the light-emitting layer uses Zn complexes as a host, wherein the Zn complexes have at least one ligand selected from the group consisting of methylquinolinol and dinnethylquinolinol;

2. The organic electroluminescent (EL) device according to claim 1 , wherein the dopant is used in an amount of 0.5 to 20% by weight, based on the weight of the light-emitting layer.

3. An organic electroluminescent (EL) device comprising

a first electrode,

a light-emitting layer using a red phosphorescent compound as a dopant, and

a second electrode, and

exhibiting a luminescence of 1,300 to 1,450 cd/m 2 and an electric current density of 8 to 10 mA/cm 2 at an applied voltage of 5.7 to 6.1 V and

wherein the dopant is a red phosphorescent compound selected from the group consisting of A- 1 to A- 12 and B- 1 to B- 12 as follows, and

wherein the light-emitting layer uses Zn complexes as a host, and

wherein the Zn complexes have at least one ligand selected from the group consisting of methylquinolinol and dimethylquinolinol;

4. The organic electroluminescent (EL) device according to claim 3 , wherein the device has a lifetime of 3,500 to 4,500 hours, wherein the lifetime is defined as the time taken before the luminance of the organic EL device decreases to half its initial value.

5. The organic electroluminescent (EL) device according to claim 3 , wherein the device has a current efficiency of 10 to 15 cd/A.

6. The organic electroluminescent (EL) device according to claim 3 , wherein the device has a power efficiency of 6 to 8 Im/W.

7. The organic electroluminescent (EL) device according to claim 3 , wherein the dopant is used in an amount of 0.5 to 20% by weight, based on the weight of the light-emitting layer.
