摘要
Organic multiple quantum wells(OMQWs) consisting of alternating layers of organic materials have been fabricated from tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum(Alq)and 2-(4-biphenylyl)-5-(4-tertbutylphenyl)-1,3,3-oxadiazole(PBD) by a multisource-type high-vacuum organic molecular deposition.From the small-angle X-ray diffraction patterns of Alq/PBD OMQWs,a periodically layered structure is confirmed through the entire stack.The Alq layer thickness in the OMQWs was varied from 1 nm to 4 nm.From the optical absorption,photoluminescence and electroluminescence measurements,it is found that the exciton energy shifts to higher energy with decreasing Alq layer thickness,The changes of the exciton energy could be interpreted as the confinement effects of exciton in the Alq thin layers.Narrowing of the emission spectrum has also been observed for the electroluminescent devices (ELDs) with the OMQWs structure at room temperature.
