AbstractBis(8‐hydroxyquinolates) Zinc (Znq2) can be used as a light‐emitting layer material in OLED devices to achieve its efficient electroluminescence effect. In this paper, Znq2 powder has been successfully synthesized and modified by the physical vapor deposition (PVD) method. Precursors and nano‐materials are characterized by XRD, SEM, PL, and so on. The performance of the modified material has been significantly improved. The emission intensity and absorption intensity in the deposited products increased with the increase in PVD temperature. At 453 K, luminous properties such as luminous intensity reach the optimal value including its fluorescence lifetime. Fluorescence lifetime values vary from 13 to 17 ns with the increase in temperature. The luminescence mechanism is also discussed. The energy gap and absorption spectrum of HOM‐LUMO are calculated by the DFT/UB3LYP method. The experimental values agree well with the theoretical values. The nanomaterial crystals modified by PVD technology are more orderly, impurities are reduced, and the luminous stability of the material is improved, which may be one of the reasons for the relatively slow decline in product life. The research combined with theoretical simulation is expected to be helpful to the research and promotion of such materials.
