Abstract Combinations of electron-withdrawing and-donating substituents on the 8- hydroxyquinoline ligand of the tris (8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq 3) complexes allow for control of the HOMO and LUMO energies and the HOMO–LUMO gap responsible for emission from the complexes. Here, we present a systematic study on tuning the emission and electroluminescence (EL) from Alq 3 complexes from the green to blue region. In this ...
