  1. Chapter – 12 Organic Light Emitting Diodes MolecularOrbitals HOMO and LUMO

  2. Molecular Orbital Theory Molecular orbital (MO) theory describes covalent bond formation as a combination of atomic orbitals to form molecular orbitals. In the H2 molecule 2 singly occupied 1satomic orbitals combine to produce 2 molecular orbitals. Eachmolecular orbital can occupy maximum 2 electrons. The number of MO's must equal the number of atomic orbitals which combined to produce them. The bonding MO (denoted 1) is lower in energy. - ground state - both 1s electrons reside The antibonding MO (denoted 2* ) is higher in energy. - 2* is empty. If EM radiation of the energy equal to the energy gap between 1 and 2* strikes the molecule, one or both of the bonding electrons may be excited (promoted) to the 2* orbital.

  3. Molecular Orbital Description of Ethylene (C2H4) Atomic No. of C = 6. Electronic configuration: 1s2, 2s2 2p2 The carbon atom doesn't have enough unpaired electrons to form the required number of bonds, so it needs to promote one of the 2s2 pair into the empty 2pz orbital. Hybridization There is only a small energy gap between the 2s and 2p orbitals, and an electron is promoted from the 2s to the empty 2p to give 4 unpaired electrons. When the carbon atoms hybridize their outer orbitals before forming bonds (with hydrogen atom), they only hybridize three of the orbitals rather than all four. They use the 2s electron and two of the 2p electrons, but leave the other 2p electron unchanged. The C-C sigma () bond in ethylene results from the overlap of two 2sp2 atomic orbitals producing two MO’s (one 1 bonding and one 2* antibonding). The C-C pi () bond in ethylene results from the side-to-side overlap of two 2p atomic orbitals producing two MO’s (one 1 bonding and one 2* antibonding).

  4. 1 is called a HOMO (Highest occupied Molecular Orbital) and 2* is called a LUMO (Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital). In unsaturated compounds, the HOMO  LUMO excitation is generally a * transition (or ‘n’ * transition). The  and * MO’s are not involved.

  5. HOMO and LUMO Levels HOMO and LUMO are acronyms for highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, respectively. The energy difference between the HOMO and LUMO is termed the HOMO–LUMO gap. Homo  is analogues to valance band while LUMO is analogues to Conduction band. The difference of the CB-VB is band gap and on similar terms LUMO-HOMO is the band gap and is energy levels required for the conduction to take place.  HOMO and LUMO of a molecule. Each circle represents an electron in an orbital; when light of a high enough energy is absorbed by an electron in the HOMO, it jumps to the LUMO.

  6. Importance of HOMO - LUMO • The HOMO-LUMO gap of organic molecules are significant as they relate to specific movements of electrons. • Conducting organic material a lower gap between the two states. • There are ideal systems of organic polymers that come close to being conductors, close to metals. • Organic semiconductors have applications in high tech transistors for expensive circuits, LED's, lasers (mouse pad, barcode scanners, etc), and many other materials packed into your phone.

  7. Measurements of HOMO, LUMO energies • Experimental techniques • Cyclic voltammetry • XPS spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy. • Theoretical technique • Density Functional Theory (DFT)

Current status of OLED devices • First Generation OLED devices - Based on Fluorescent materials • Second Generation OLED devices - Based on phosphorescent materials • Third Generation OLED devices - Based on Thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials. • TADF is considered a very promising path towards metal-free efficient OLED emitters. Several companies are developing TADF based materials - most notably Cynora and Kyulux which was spun-off from the Kyushu University in Japan.
