  • Patent number: 8722208
    Abstract: Disclosed is an organic electroluminescent device (organic EL device) which is improved in luminous efficiency, fully secured of high driving stability, and of a simple structure. The organic EL device is constituted of an anode, organic layers containing a phosphorescent light-emitting layer, and a cathode piled one upon another on a substrate and a phosphine oxide derivative represented by general formula (1) is contained in a phosphorescent light-emitting layer, an electron-transporting layer, a hole-blocking layer, or an exciton-blocking layer. In general formula (1), L1 is a direct bond or an aromatic group with a valence of 1-3 and Ar1 is an aromatic group. The two Ar1 groups linked to the same nitrogen atom may form a nitrogen heterocycle and may further form a fused ring together with the said nitrogen heterocycle.

  • Patent number: 8716484
    Abstract: Novel compounds, and in particular, novel molecules having twisted aryl groups are provided. In particular, the compounds include an aryl group at the ortho position relative to an amine nitrogen, thereby causing a twist within the compound from the plane of the aryl group due to the steric effect. As a result, this decreases the tendency of the molecules to pack closely and results in a higher solid state triplet energy due to reduced solid state ?-stacking. Additionally, organic light emitting devices (OLEDs) comprising a layer including these novel compounds are provided.
