Tris(8-hydroxyquinolino)aluminum (Alq3) is one of the most extensive used electron conductor and emitting layer material in organic light-emitting devices (OLED’s). We report on X- and Q-band temperature dependence EPR experiments on different crystalline Alq3 phases formed by using the train sublimation method. The room temperature X-band EPR spectra show two types of signals centered at g=2 and g=4 whose relative intensity are dependent on the crystalline phase nature. The g=2 signal is of a very particular nature - its intensity is temperature independent between 10-300 K for all phases, and increases of 4-6 times under room temperature e- or γ -irradiation. By choosing appropriate annealing conditions (663-673 K temperature range, inert atmosphere) of as prepared Alq3 phases, new features in the Q-band EPR spectra appear. Their simulation and analysis based on a spin Hamiltonian appropriate to a high spin system (S =1, S=3/2) is in good agreement with the existence of triplet and quartet spin states in annealed Alq3. The D and E zero field parameters are evaluated. The EPR results, correlated with others investigation methods, are discussed in terms of different molecular models.
