Abstract

Provided is an organic electroluminescence device including a pair of electrodes composed of an anode and a cathode, a light emitting layer between the electrodes and an organic layer which is adjacent to the light emitting layer between the light emitting layer and the cathode, on a substrate, and the light emitting layer contains at least one compound having a carbazole structure and the organic layer adjacent to the light emitting layer contains at least one hydrocarbon compound having a specific structure.

Claims (36)

1. An organic electroluminescence device, comprising:

a pair of electrodes composed of an anode and a cathode;

a light emitting layer between the electrodes; and

an organic layer which is adjacent to the light emitting layer between the light emitting layer and the cathode, on a substrate,

wherein the light emitting layer comprises at least one compound represented by the following Formula (1), and

the organic layer adjacent to the light emitting layer, which is on the cathode side of the light emitting layer, comprises at least one hydrocarbon compound represented by Formula (Tp-3):

in Formula (1),

R 1 represents a phenyl group and may further have a substituent Z,

in the case where R 1 is present in plurality, each of a plurality of R 1 may be the same or different,

each of R 2 to R 5 independently represents a t-butyl group, a phenyl group, or a triphenylsilyl group,

in the case where each of R 2 to R 5 is present in plurality, each of a plurality of R 2 to R 5 may be the same or different,

the substituent Z represents a phenyl group,

n1 represents an integer of 0 to 2,

each of n2 to n5 independently represents an integer of 0 to 1:

in Formula (Tp-3),

L represents a phenyl group, which may be substituted with a C1-C5 alkyl group or a phenyl group, or an n-valent linking group formed by combining these groups, and

n represents an integer of 1 to 3.

2. The organic electroluminescence device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the compound represented by Formula (1) is a compound represented by the following Formula (2):

in Formula (2)

each of R 6 and R 7 independently represents a phenyl group,

each of n6 and n7 independently represents an integer of 0 to 1,

each of R 8 to R 11 independently represents a hydrogen atom, a t-butyl group, a phenyl group, or a triphenylsilyl group.

3. The organic electroluminescence device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the light emitting layer comprises at least one phosphorescent light emitting material.

4. The organic electroluminescence device according to claim 1 ,

wherein at least one layer of the light emitting layer, the organic layer adjacent to the light emitting layer and other organic layers present between the anode and the cathode are formed by a solution application process.

5. The organic electroluminescence device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the device contains a hole injection layer between the electrodes and contains an electron accepting dopant in the hole injection layer.

6. The organic electroluminescence device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the device contains an electron injection layer between the electrodes and contains an electron donating dopant in the electron injection layer.

7. A light emission apparatus using the organic electroluminescence device according to claim 1 .

8. A display apparatus using the organic electroluminescence device according to claim 1 .

9. An illumination apparatus using the organic electroluminescence device according to claim 1 .

10. The organic electroluminescence device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the light emitting layer further comprises a light emitting material in an amount of 0.1 mass % to 50 mass %.
