Notes:
The energy level alignment for both Mg/8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum (Alq) and Au/Alq interfaces has been determined by the ultraviolet photoemission measurements. For both interfaces, the difference between the Fermi level and the low-energy edge of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) is around 1.7 eV. This implies that the Fermi level with respect to the HOMO edge of Alq is independent of the work function of Mg and Au despite a large difference in the metal work function. A Fermi level alignment model is proposed, invoking a charge transfer between the metal and Alq and the formation of a dipolar layer at the metal/Alq interface. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.
