Extract

Tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum III (Alq3) is a stable metal chelate that has received a great deal of attention over the past years due to its use in the fabrication of organic light emitting diodes (OLED).[1,2] Despite all the interest in this remarkable material very little information on its' solid-state properties and packing exists. Nearly all of the available information comes from studies that have been carried out on vacuum deposited thin films.[1]
