Optimization of semiconductor halide perovskite layers to implement waveguide amplifiers
Semiconductor organometallic halide (CH 3 NH 3 PbX 3 , X=Cl, Br, I) perovskites (HPVK) have been emerged as a potential gain media to construct a new generation of active photonic devices. Indeed, during the last three years a significant effort has been carried out to implement HPVK-based optical amplifiers or lasers with improved quality factors. In particular, minimization of the threshold of stimulated emission has been an important concern to decrease the power consumption, and hence to enhance the performances of the device. For this purpose strategies include a suitable integration of the semiconductor in a photonic structure, or the optimization of the material. Here we propose a no…
Twisted hexaazatrianthrylene: synthesis, optoelectronic properties and near-infrared electroluminescent heterojunctions thereof
The synthesis, optoelectronic properties and near-infrared electroluminescent heterojunctions of a twisted and soluble 7,8,15,16,23,24-hexaazatrianthrylene derivative are reported.
Pyrene-fused bisphenazinothiadiazoles with red to NIR electroluminescence
The synthesis and characterisation of two pyrene-fused phenazinothiadiazole derivatives with different substituents is described. Light-emitting diodes incorporating such derivatives display red to near-infrared electroluminescence with emission peaks at wavelengths as long as 721 nm, illustrating that pyrene-fused bisphenazinothiadiazoles can serve as deep red and NIR emitters.
Enhancement of the Performance of Perovskite Solar Cells, LEDs, and Optical Amplifiers by Anti-Solvent Additive Deposition
The efficiency of perovskite optoelectronic devices is increased by a novel method; its suitability for perovskite solar cells, light-emitting diodes, and optical amplifiers is demonstrated. The method is based on the introduction of organic additives during the anti-solvent step in the perovskite thin-film deposition process. Additives passivate grain boundaries reducing non-radiative recombination. The method can be easily extended to other additives.
