Fitting the magnetoresponses of the OLED using polaron pair model to obtain spin-pair dynamics and local hyperfine fields.

ABSTRACT: Organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays a sign reversal magnetic field effect (MFE) when the applied magnetic field range is reduced to the sub-milliTesla range and the Polaron Pair Model has been successful in explaining the ultra-small MFE. Here, we obtained high resolution (~ 1 µT) magnetoconductance (MC) and magnetoelectroluminescence (MEL) of a tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminium-based (Alq₃) OLED within the magnetic field range of ± 500 µT with the earth magnetic field components cancelled. A clear "W" shaped MC with a dip position of ± 250 µT and a monotonic MEL were observed. We demonstrate a fitting technique using the polaron pair model to the experimentally obtained MC and MEL. The fitting process extracts physically significant parameters within a working OLED: the local hyperfine fields for electron and hole in Alq₃: B_hf1 = (0.63 ± 0.01) mT (electron), B_hf2 = (0.24 ± 0.01) mT (hole); the separation rates for singlet and triplet polaron pairs: k_S,s = (44.59 ± 0.01) MHz, k_T,s = (43.97 ± 0.01) MHz, and the recombination rate for singlet polaron pair k_S,r = (88 ± 6) MHz. The yielded parameters are highly reproducible across different OLEDs and are in broad agreement with density functional theory (DFT) calculations and reported experimental observations. This demonstrates the feasibility of this fitting technique to approach any working OLED for obtaining significant microscopic parameters.

Project description:Pair atomic density fitting (PADF) has been identified as a promising strategy to reduce the scaling with system size of quantum chemical methods for the calculation of the correlation energy like the direct random-phase approximation (RPA) or second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2). PADF can however introduce large errors in correlation energies as the two-electron interaction energy is not guaranteed to be bounded from below. This issue can be partially alleviated by using very large fit sets, but this comes at the price of reduced efficiency and having to deal with near-linear dependencies in the fit set. One posibility is to use global density fitting (DF), but in this work, we introduce an alternative methodology to overcome this problem that preserves the intrinsically favorable scaling of PADF. We first regularize the Fock matrix by projecting out parts of the basis set which gives rise to orbital products that are hard to describe by PADF. After having thus obtained a reliable self-consistent field solution, we then also apply this projector to the orbital coefficient matrix to improve the precision of PADF-MP2 and PADF-RPA. We systematically assess the accuracy of this new approach in a numerical atomic orbital framework using Slater type orbitals (STO) and correlation consistent Gaussian type basis sets up to quintuple-ζ quality for systems with more than 200 atoms. For the small and medium systems in the S66 database we show the maximum deviation of PADF-MP2 and PADF-RPA relative correlation energies to DF-MP2 and DF-RPA reference results to be 0.07 and 0.14 kcal/mol, respectively. When the new projector method is used, the errors only slightly increase for large molecules and also when moderately sized fit sets are used the resulting errors are well under control. Finally, we demonstrate the computational efficiency of our algorithm by calculating the interaction energies of large, non-covalently bound complexes with more than 1000 atoms and 20000 atomic orbitals at the RPA@PBE/CC-pVTZ level of theory.
