According to another aspect of the present invention, a flat panel display device includes the organic light-emitting device according to the one or more embodiments described above, wherein the first electrode of the organic light-emitting device may be electrically connected to a source electrode or a drain electrode of a thin-film transistor.
The above and other features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent by a detailed description of exemplary embodiments thereof with reference to the attached drawings in which:
Organic light-emitting devices can be roughly classified as either inorganic light-emitting devices that include emission layers containing inorganic compounds, or organic light-emitting devices that include emission layers containing organic compounds.
Specifically, organic light-emitting devices have higher luminance, lower driving voltages, and shorter response times than inorganic light-emitting devices, and can render multi-colored displays. Thus, much research into such organic light-emitting devices has been conducted.
Typically, an organic light-emitting device has a stack structure including an in anode, a cathode and an organic emission layer interposed therebetween. However, a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an electron transport layer, or an electron injection layer may be further stacked between either the anode or the cathode and the organic emission layer. In other words, an organic light-emitting device may have a stack structure of anode/hole transport layer/organic emission layer/cathode or a stack structure of anode/hole transport layer/organic emission layer/electron transport layer/cathode.
As a material for forming the organic emission layer, naphthalene derivatives can be used. However, organic light-emitting devices including such materials may not have satisfactory life span, efficiency, and power consumption characteristics, therefore improvement in this regard is still necessary.
An organic light-emitting device manufactured using a compound of phenylanthracene dimer or trimer as an organic emission layer material is widely known. However, such organic light-emitting devices have a narrow energy gap and lower blue-light color purity since two or three oligomeric species of anthracene are linked by conjugation. In addition, such compounds are highly vulnerable to oxidation and thus are liable to produce impurities, necessitating purification. In order to overcome these drawbacks, organic light-emitting devices manufactured using an anthracene compound including naphthalene substituted for anthracene at the 1, 9 positions or using a diphenylanthracene compound including an aryl group substituted for a phenyl group at the m-position have been introduced. However, these organic light-emitting devices have a lower light-emission efficiency.
Organic light-emitting devices may also be manufactured using naphthalene-substituted monoanthracene derivatives. However, the light-emission efficiency thereof is low at about 1 cd/A, and thus such organic light-emitting devices are not suitable for practical use.
Furthermore, organic light-emitting devices may be manufactured using phenylanthracene compounds including aryl substituents at the m-position. Such a compound has excellent thermal resistance but leads to an unsatisfactorily low light-emission efficiency of about 2 cd/A.
The present invention will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown.
A heterocyclic compound according to an embodiment of the present invention is represented by Formula 1 below:

X is a divalent linking group represented by —(Ar3)6— where Ar3 is a substituted or unsubstituted C5-C60 arylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted C3-C14) heteroarylene group, or a substituted or unsubstituted C6-C60 condensed polycyclic group, and n is an integer from 1 to 10, wherein n groups of Ar3 may be identical to or different from each other, and at least two adjacent groups of the n Ar3 groups may be fused or linked to each other by a single bond.
In some embodiments the heterocyclic compound of Formula 1 may be used as a light-emitting material, a hole transporting material, or an electron transporting material. Having improved performance as blue-emitting material, the compound of Formula 1 may be useful as a deep blue material in a large display having a non-resonant structure. The heterocyclic compound of Formula 1 having a heterocyclic group in the molecules thereof has a high glass transition temperature (Tg) or a high melting point due to the inclusion of the heterocyclic group. Thus, the heterocyclic compound has high heat resistance against Joule's heat generated in an organic layer, between organic layers, or between an organic layer and a metal electrode when light emission occurs, and has high durability in high-temperature environments.
An organic light-emitting device manufactured using a heterocyclic compound of Formula 1 has high durability when stored or operated. In addition, due to the inclusion of a substituent such as an aryl group or heteroaryl group, molecular layers formed as thin films may be maintained in good condition, thereby improving the characteristics of the organic light-emitting device.
