Theoretical Study of the Electronic Transition Rate Production in Alq3 molecule with Au Metal Interface

Abstract

The electronic transition rate between a Alq3 molecular and Au metal in different coupling coefficient has examined using simple theoretical picture through Marcus theory for electronic transfer and quantum postulate. The electronic transfer rate contribution is discussion the transfer mechanism, its induced by the transition energy for molecule - metal system. The Alq3 molecule is named ( tris(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum ) and has chemical structure (C27H18AlN3O3). The rate of electron transfer for Alq3-Au system studies with 2-methyylpyridin, Hexanone, Acetone, Bezonitrile, Propanonitrile, Nitrobenzene and 1,2-ethanediol solvents. It has been shown that electron transtion across the Alq3-Au interface associated with solvent increases with decreases the transition energy and potential at interface.
