  • Abstract
    A new method to form 1D nanostructure of tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (AlQ3) has been demonstrated. This method is a one-step heating process at low temperatures to transform AlQ3 amorphous nanoparticles into crystalline nanowires. AlQ3 exhibits a highly electroluminescent efficiency and an anisotropic crystallographic nature. Appropriate heating provides a suitable condition for the molecules easily adopting a favorable configuration for the 1D growth. From the XRD analysis, α phase of AlQ3 is formed after heating. Higher intensity of photoluminescence (PL) and a blue shift after heating are also illustrated.
