Abstract

Red phosphorescene compounds and organic electro-luminescence device using the same are disclosed. In an organic electroluminescence device including an anode, a hole injecting layer, a hole transport layer, a light emitting layer, an electron transport layer, an electron injecting layer, and a cathode serially deposited on one another, the organic electroluminescence device may use a compound as a dopant of the light emitting layer.

Claims (11)

1. An organic electroluminescent device comprising a light emitting layer, the light emitting layer comprising a red phosphorescence compound of Formula 1 below as a dopant:

wherein each of R1, R2, R3, and R4 is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and substituted or non-substituted C1 to C6 alkyl groups, and

wherein

represents an alkanedione selected from the group consisting of 2,4-pentanedione, 2,2,6,6,-tetra-methylheptane-3,5-dione, 3,5-heptanedione, 1,1,1-trifluoro-2,4-pentanedione, 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoro-2,4-pentanedione, and 2,2-dimethyl-3,5-hexanedione.

2. The organic electroluminescent device of claim 1 , wherein any one of Al and Zn metallic complexes and carbazole derivatives is used as a host of the light emitting layer.

3. The organic electroluminescent device of claim 1 , wherein any one of Al and Zn metallic complexes and a carbazole derivative is used as a host of the light emitting layer, and wherein usage of the dopant within the range of 0.1 wt. % to 50 wt. %.

4. The organic electroluminescent device of claim 2 , wherein a ligand in each of the Al and Zn metallic complexes comprises quinolyl, biphenyl, isoquinolyl, phenyl, methylquinolyl, dimethylquinolyl, dimethyl-isoquinolyl, and wherein the carbazole derivative comprises CBP.

5. The organic electroluminescent device of claim 1 , wherein each of the C1 to C6 alkyl groups is selected from a group consisting of methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, n-butyl, i-butyl, and t-butyl.

6. The organic electroluminescent device of claim 1 , wherein

is any one of the following chemical formulae:

7. The organic electroluminescent device of claim 1 , wherein the Formula 1 is any one of the following chemical formulae:
