  • Patent number: 10158092
    Abstract: An organic electronic component includes a substrate and a first electrode arranged on the substrate, and at least one organic functional layer arranged on the first electrode. The organic functional layer includes a matrix material into which a p-dopant has been introduced and a second electrode arranged on the organic functional layer. The p-dopant includes a copper complex having at least two ligands. Each ligand has a benzene unit with six carbon atoms. With respect to each ligand, an iminium group is linked directly as a substituent to one of the six carbon atoms of the benzene unit, and an oxygen is bound as a substituent to an adjacent carbon atom of the benzene unit, with the oxygen and the benzene unit together forming an aryloxy group. The ligands are coordinated to the copper cation, so that the copper complex has a trans-structure. The organic functional layer is hole-conducting.

  • Patent number: 9570686
    Abstract: An organic light emitting diode (OLED) having an improved service life and improved transport of negative charge carriers. The organic light emitting diode based on an organic semiconductor material in which the transport of negative charge carriers and the stability with respect to reduction are determined by azahetarylene/Lewis acid complex units. This leads to an improved service life of the emission layer, which firstly increases the service life of the component and avoids readjustment of the brightness during operation. Organic light emitting diodes are disclosed in which the position of the emission zone in the emitter layer and the color of the emission can be specifically influenced by azahetarylene/Lewis acid complex units.

  • Patent number: 9375392
    Abstract: The invention relates to a use of the guanidinium cation and to a light-emitting component. This invention for the first time describes matrix materials and emitters for uses in organic electrochemical light-emitting cells containing a guanidinium cation unit. Guanidinium groups as a cationic system promise a wide electrochemical window and hence stable components. The route to guanidinium systems is described in detail in the literature.

  • Patent number: 9276223
    Abstract: The invention relates to novel metal-organic materials for hole injection layers in organic electronic components. For example, in light-emitting components such as organic light diodes (OLED) or organic light-emitting electrochemical cells (OLEEC) or organic field effect transistors or organic solar cells or organic photo detectors. Luminescence (cd/m2), efficiency (cd/A), and service life (h) of organic electronic components such as from organic light diodes in particular are highly dependent on the exciton thickness in the light-emitting layer and on the quality of the charge carrier injection and are also limited by same, among other things. The invention relates to a hole injection layer consisting of quadratic planar mononuclear transition metal complexes such as copper 2+ complexes, for example, which are embedded into a hole-conducting matrix.
