用紫外光电子能谱(UV-XPS)研究了8-羟基喹啉铝(Alq(3))LiF/Al和Alq(3)/Al界面的电子结构。观察到Alq(3)层的最高占据分子轨道能级和真空能级由于插入薄LiF层而发生的移动。该结果表明,Alq(3)/Al界面处的薄LiF层降低了电子从Al注入到Alq(3)的势垒高度。因此,我们得出结论,在具有薄LiF层的有机电致发光器件中,驱动电压的降低归因于势垒高度的降低。(C)1998年美国物理学会。[S0003-6951(98)00345-3]。
Electronic structures of the 8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum (Alq(3))LiF/Al and Alq(3)/Al interfaces were measured by ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. Shifts of the highest occupied molecular orbital level and the vacuum level of the Alq(3) layer due to insertion of a thin LiF layer were observed. This result indicates that the thin LiF layer at the Alq(3)/Al interface reduces barrier height for electron injection from the Al to Alq(3). We, therefore, conclude that lowering of the driving voltage in an organic electroluminescent device with a thin LiF layer is attributable to the reduction of the barrier height.
