Abstract

The thiadiazole represented by formula (2) or (4), when used as a light-emitting material in a light-emitting element, allows the light-emitting element to emit near-infrared light: wherein in formulae (2) and (4), each R independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group. There may be a ring formed by a carbon linkage between two adjacent R's.

Claims (36)

1. A light-emitting element comprising:

an anode;

a cathode; and

a light-emitting layer that is disposed between the anode and the cathode and, when electric current flows between the anode and the cathode, emits light,

wherein the light-emitting layer contains a compound represented by any of formulae (2) to (4) as a light-emitting material and a compound represented by formula IRH-2 as a host material for the light-emitting material;

where each R independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a ring group, wherein the ring group includes two adjacent carbon atoms that bond to each other;

where each of R 1 to R 4 independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl amino group, with some or all of R 1 to R 4 the same or all of R 1 to R 4 different.

2. The light-emitting element according to claim 1 , wherein the compound represented by formula IRH-2, the host material, is a compound represented by formula IRH-3;

where each of R 1 and R 2 independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl amino group, with R 1 and R 2 the same or different.

3. A light-emitting element comprising:

an anode;

a cathode; and

a light-emitting layer that is disposed between the anode and the cathode and, when electric current flows between the anode and the cathode, emits light,

wherein the light-emitting layer contains a compound represented by any of formulae (2) to (4) as a light-emitting material as a light-emitting material and a compound represented by formula IRH-5 as a host material for the light-emitting material;

where each R independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a ring group, wherein the ring group includes two adjacent carbon atoms that bond to each other;

where each of R 1 and R 2 independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl amino group, with R 1 and R 2 the same or different.

4. A light-emitting element comprising:

an anode;

a cathode; and

a light-emitting layer that is disposed between the anode and the cathode and, when electric current flows between the anode and the cathode, emits light,

wherein the light-emitting layer contains a compound represented by any of formulae (2) to (4) as a light-emitting material as a light-emitting material and a compound represented by formula IRH-7 as a host material for the light-emitting material;

where each R independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a ring group, wherein the ring group includes two adjacent carbon atoms that bond to each other;

where each of R 1 and R 2 independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl amino group, with R 1 and R 2 the same or different.

5. A light-emitting element comprising:

an anode;

a cathode; and

a light-emitting layer that is disposed between the anode and the cathode and, when electric current flows between the anode and the cathode, emits light,

wherein the light-emitting layer contains a compound represented by any of formulae (2) to (4) as a light-emitting material as a light-emitting material and a compound represented by formula IRH-8 as a host material for the light-emitting material;

where each R independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a ring group, wherein the ring group includes two adjacent carbon atoms that bond to each other;

where each of R 1 and R 2 independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl amino group, with R 1 and R 2 the same or different.

6. A light-emitting apparatus comprising the light-emitting element according to claim 1 .

7. An electronic device comprising the light-emitting apparatus according to claim 6 .

8. A light-emitting apparatus comprising the light-emitting element according to claim 2 .

9. A light-emitting apparatus comprising the light-emitting element according to claim 3 .

10. A light-emitting apparatus comprising the light-emitting element according to claim 4 .

11. A light-emitting apparatus comprising the light-emitting element according to claim 5 .
