摘要
用传统的真空蒸镀法制备了Alq3/ITO样品,并用X光电子能谱(XPS)研究了Alq3/ITO紧密接触的表面和界面电子化学状态。对Alq3/ITO样品的表面分析表明,在lq3分子中,Al原子的束缚能(Eb)为70.7eV和75.1eV。分别对应于Al(0)和Al(Ⅲ)态,C原子的束缚能为285.8eV、286.3eV和286.8eV,分别对应于C-C、C-O和C-N键;N原子的主峰位于 401.0eV,对应于 C-N=C键;而 O原子主要与 H原子成键,其束缚能为532.8eV。为了研究Alq3/ITO的界面电子状态,我们用氩离子束对样品表面进行了溅射剥蚀,当溅射时间分别为30,35,45分钟时进行XPS采谱分析。结果表明,随着氩离子束溅射时间增长,Al2p、C1s、N1s、O1s、In3d5/2和Sn3d5/2峰都向低束缚能方向有微小移动,且Al2p、C1s和N1s峰变弱,这是受ITO中扩散进入Alq3层的O、In和Sn原子的影响所致。
An understanding of the surface and interface states of the organic material and the underlying anode material is meaningful for organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs). The tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (A1q3)/indium-tin oxide (ITO) samples were fabricated with traditional vacuum deposition. The surface and interface electronic chemical states of the A1q3 and the underlying ITO have been investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The analysis on XPS spectra of the surface of the Alq3/ITO structure shows that, in Alq3 molecule, the binding energy (Eb) of Al atoms is 70.7eV and 75.1eV, corresponding to Al (0) and Al (Ⅲ), respec- tively. The binding energy of C atoms is 285. 8eV, 286. 3eV and 286. 8eV, corresponding to C atoms of C- C groups, C-O and C-N bonds, respectively. The N1s main peak locates at 401 .0eV, corresponding to N atoms of C-N = C bonds. O atoms mainly bond to H atoms, and the bonding energy is 532. 8eV. The N and O atoms also interact with Al atoms through coordination bonds. In order to investigate the interface electronic states of the Alq3/ ITO structure, the samples are sput- tered by argon ions beam. The analysis on XPS spectra of the interface of the A1q3/ITO structure indicates that, as the sputtering time of argon ions beam increasing, Al2p, C1s and N1s peaks get weaker, which in- dicates the Alq3 film becomes thinner and thinner and the concentrations of the Al, C and N atoms reduce with increasing sputtering time. The core-levels of Al2p, C1s, N1s, O1s, In3d5/2 and Sn3d5/2 spectra slightly shift towards lower binding energy when the sputtering time increasing, this may be caused by the effect of oxygen, indium and tin in ITO diffusing into Alq3 layer and the argon ions beam with high energy. Besides these, with the sputtering time of argon ions beam increasing, the relative concentration of O atoms from ITO diffusing into A1q3 increases, and the interaction of O atoms with In and Sn atoms gradually re- duces, which results in the In2O3 and SnO2 turning int
