AbstractMultilayer organic light emitting devices based on tris-8-(hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3) and a naphthyl-substituted benzidine derivative (NPB) have demonstrated practical electroluminescence with a wide range of color. Trap states in these materials play an important role in the carrier transport as well as the light emission process. We report the first observation of thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) from Alq3 and NPB. The TSL spectra from 8 K to 300 K were used to determine the trap states in Alq3 and NPB. The results for Alq3 show a significant trap distribution at 156 K, which corresponds to a mean trap depth ranging from 0.18 to 0.12 eV, whereas the trap states in NPB are centered from 0.15 eV to 0.01 eV. We have used TSL to study the trap state properties of thin metal layers in the Alq3 films. In addition, we report photoluminescence as a function of temperature for Alq3. TSL spectroscopy provides a technique to study the trap states in a specific layer of the device structure.

AbstractVariable temperature electrical measurement is well-established and used for determining the conduction mechanism in semiconductors. There is a Meyer¡VNeldel relationship between the activation energy and the prefactor with a Meyer¡VNeldel energy of 30.03 meV, which corresponds well with the isokinetic temperature of about 350 K. Therefore, the multiple trapping and release model is properly used to explain the thermally activated phenomenon. By the method, an exponential distribution of traps is assumed to be a better representation of trap states in band tail. Samples with higher temperature during measurement are observed to show better mobility, higher on-current and lower resistance, which agree well with the multiple trapping and release model proposed to explain the conduction mechanism in pentacene-based OTFTs.
