Amorphous semiconductor-electrolyte junction
1987
Abstract The photoelectrochemical behaviour of amorphous anodic films on niobium (a-Nb 2 O 5 ) grown in a wide range of thicknesses (20 ⩽ d ox ⩽ 25 nm) is presented. The influence of the wavelength, light intensity and film thickness on the photocharacteristics of the a-Nb 2 O 5 /electrolyte junction is investigated. Expressions for the photocurrent curves under steady-state conditions are derived by assuming a variable efficiency of photocarrier generation and different distributions of the electrical potential inside the amorphous films. The influence of the light intensity on the photocharacteristics and the existence of a sub-band-gap photoresponse are explained by assuming a finite den…
Chemical surface ageing in ambient conditions of an Al–Fe–Cr approximant phase.
2007
International audience; The γ -Al65Cr27Fe8 phase is a complex metallic alloy with interesting electrochemical properties. Here we present a detailed study of the surface ageing of this alloy when exposed to ambient conditions for a long time. A combination of x-ray reflectivity, photoemission spectroscopy and secondary neutral mass spectroscopy measurements is used to provide a model of the modification of the surface structure and its composition as functions of ageing time. The near surface structure is described by the stacking of three layers. The first layer on top of the substrate corresponds to a mixed metal oxide and is amorphous. The intermediate layer consists of pure aluminum oxy…
Optical, Structural and Paramagnetic Properties of Eu-Doped Ternary Sulfides ALnS2 (A = Na, K, Rb; Ln = La, Gd, Lu, Y)
2015
Eu-doped ternary sulfides of general formula ALnS2 (A = Na, K, Rb; Ln = La, Gd, Lu, Y) are presented as a novel interesting material family which may find usage as X-ray phosphors or solid state white light emitting diode (LED) lighting. Samples were synthesized in the form of transparent crystalline hexagonal platelets by chemical reaction under the flow of hydrogen sulfide. Their physical properties were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction, time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance, and X-ray excited fluorescence. Corresponding characteristics, including absorption, radioluminescence, photoluminescence excitation and emission spectra, and decay k…
Photoluminescence immunosensor based on bovine leukemia virus proteins immobilized on the ZnO nanorods
2019
Bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) proteins gp51, which are serving as antigens for specific antibodies against BLV proteins (anti-gp51), were applied as biological recognition part in the design of immunosensor devoted for the determination of anti-gp51. The efficiency of the immobilization of BLV proteins gp51 on ZnO nanorod (ZnO- NR) modified glass (ZnO-NR/glass) surface was evaluated. The formation of antigen-antibody complex on the ZnO/glass modified by the BLV proteins gp51 (gp51/ZnO-NR/glass) was investigated by the determination of changes in ZnO photoluminescence. The applicability of gp51/ZnO-NR/glass in the design of photoluminescence based immunosensor was evaluated. Bovine serum albu…
Oligofluorene with multiple spiro-connections: its and their use in blue and white OLEDs
2019
Bond rotation within molecules is regarded as one of the nonradiative decay pathways and is detrimental to high photoluminescence quantum yields. In this work, a bulky and rigid blue emitter (Spiro-F) with five spiro-carbon linkages is synthesized. Spiro-F can serve not only as an active component of blue organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), but also as a host and blue emitter of white OLEDs. The WOLED offers a low turn-on voltage of 3.5 V and a high current efficiency of 3.6 cd A−1, together with CIE coordinates of (0.29, 0.33). This work proves the potential of super-rigid oligofluorene emitters for OLEDs.
Extended liquid-crystalline oligofluorenes with photo- and electroluminescence
2010
In this paper we report the synthesis and characterization of a series of low-molecular weight light-emitting molecules based on short oligofluorene cores, from one to three 9,9-dioctylfluorene units, elongated at the 2- and 7-positions by means of promesogenic units. The effect of this structural modification on the mesomorphic properties, as well as on the optical and electrochemical properties, is studied. The possibility of using these molecules as emitters in light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and polarized photoluminescent layers has been explored.
Near-Quantitative Internal Quantum Efficiency in a Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cell
2008
A green-light-emitting iridium(III) complex was prepared that has a photoluminescence quantum yield in a thin-film configuration of almost unity. When used in a simple solid-state single-layer light-emitting electrochemical cell, it yielded an external quantum efficiency of nearly 15% and a power efficiency of 38 Lm/W. We argue that these high external efficiencies are only possible if near-quantitative internal electron-to-photon conversion occurs. This shows that the limiting factor for the efficiency of these devices is the photoluminescence quantum yield in a solid film configuration. The observed efficiencies show the prospect of these simple electroluminescent devices for lighting and…
Efficient electroluminescence from a perylenediimide fluorophore obtained from a simple solution processed OLED
2009
Simple solution processed organic light emitting diodes are used to screen the performance of two types of highly efficient, narrow band red emitting fluorescent perylenediimides (PDIs). PDIs substituted at the diimide positions seem to form aggregates in the thin film architecture as evidenced by the shifted electroluminescent spectrum. When substituted on the bay position and when used both as the emitting and the electron transporting specie, bright electroluminescence with a narrow width around 610 nm reaching 500 cd m−2 at moderate voltages was observed, demonstrating the usefulness of these fluorophores for OLED applications.
Optical transitions and excitonic recombination in InAs/InP self-assembled quantum wires
2001
InAs self-assembled quantum wire structures have been grown on InP substrates and studied by means of photoluminescence and polarized-light absorption measurements. According to our calculations, the observed optical transitions in each sample are consistent with wires of different heights, namely from 6 to 13 monolayers. The nonradiative mechanism limiting the emission intensity at room temperature is related to thermal escape of carriers out of the wires.
Luminescence Efficiency of Si/SiO 2 Nanoparticles Produced by Laser Ablation
2019
Photoluminescence properties of Si(core)/SiO 2 (shell) nanoparticles produced by pulsed laser ablation in aqueous solution are investigated with the purpose to highlight the microscopic processes that govern the emission brightness and stability. Time resolved spectra evidence that these systems emit a µs decaying band centered around 1.95 eV, that is associated with the radiative recombination of quantum-confined excitons generated in the Si nanocrystalline core. Both the quantum efficiency and the stability of this emission are strongly dependent on the pH level of the solution, that is changed after the laser ablation is performed. They enhance in acid environment because of the H + pass…
