A study on optoelectronics and spectroscopic properties of TPD:Alq3 heterojunction films for the application of UV sensors
The optoelectronics and spectroscopic properties of N, N-diphenyl-N, N-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1, 1-biphenyl-4.4 diamine: tris (8-hydroxyquinolinate) aluminum (TPD:Alq3) systems were investigated for the application of ultraviolet (UV) sensors. Solution processed spin coating technique was used to depos...
