Popis: | The geometrical and electronic structures of tris(8-hydroxy-quinoline)aluminum (Alq3) molecule interacting with low work function metals of Mg, Al, and Li used in organic light emitting devices have been studied by first-principle calculations using density functional theory. We found that energetically the most favorable complexation for the interacting systems is the metal atom inserting into the core of the Alq3 molecule with the metal atom bridging two oxygen atoms and being coplanar with one of the quinoline ligands. The related various core level Al(2p), O(1s), and N(1s) energy shifts and the characteristic vibrational modes determined consequently are in reasonable agreements with the available experimental data. The cohesion energies (Ec) of the metal-Alq3 complexes increase in the order of Ec(Mg) |
