Optical Amplification in Hollow-Core Negative-Curvature Fibers Doped with Perovskite CsPbBr3 Nanocrystals
2019
| openaire: EC/H2020/820423/EU//S2QUIP We report a hollow-core negative-curvature fiber (HC-NCF) optical signal amplifier fabricated by the filling of the air microchannels of the fiber with all-inorganic CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs). The optimum fabrication conditions were found to enhance the optical gain, up to +3 dB in the best device. Experimental results were approximately reproduced by a gain assisted mechanism based on the nonlinear optical properties of the PNCs, indicating that signal regeneration can be achieved under low pump powers, much below the threshold of stimulated emission. The results can pave the road of new functionalities of the HC-NCF with PNCs, such as op…
Homogeneous and inhomogeneous broadening in single perovskite nanocrystals investigated by micro-photoluminescence
2021
Abstract Metal halides with perovskite crystalline structure have given rise to efficient optoelectronic and photonic devices. In the present work, we have studied the light emission properties of single CsPbBr3 and CsPbI3 semiconductor perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs), as the basis for a statistical analysis of micro-photoluminescence (micro-PL) spectra measured on tens of them. At room temperature, the linewidth extracted from PL spectra acquired in dense films of these nanocrystals is not very different from that of micro-PL measured in single nanocrystals. This means that the homogeneous linewidth due to exciton-phonon interaction is comparable or larger than the inhomogeneous effect asso…
Ligand-Length Modification in CsPbBr3 Perovskite Nanocrystals and Bilayers with PbS Quantum Dots for Improved Photodetection Performance
2020
Nanocrystals surface chemistry engineering offers a direct approach to tune charge carrier dynamics in nanocrystals-based photodetectors. For this purpose, we have investigated the effects of altering the surface chemistry of thin films of CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals produced by the doctor blading technique, via solid state ligand-exchange using 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA). The electrical and electro-optical properties of photovoltaic and photoconductor devices were improved after the MPA ligand exchange, mainly because of a mobility increase up to 5 ×
State of the art and prospects for halide perovskite nanocrystals
2021
Financiado para publicación en acceso aberto: Universidade de Vigo/CISUG Metal-halide perovskites have rapidly emerged as one of the most promising materials of the 21st century, with many exciting properties and great potential for a broad range of applications, from photovoltaics to optoelectronics and photocatalysis. The ease with which metal-halide perovskites can be synthesized in the form of brightly luminescent colloidal nanocrystals, as well as their tunable and intriguing optical and electronic properties, has attracted researchers from different disciplines of science and technology. In the last few years, there has been a significant progress in the shape-controlled synthesis of …
Purcell Enhancement and Wavelength Shift of Emitted Light by CsPbI3 Perovskite Nanocrystals Coupled to Hyperbolic Metamaterials
2020
Manipulation of the exciton emission rate in nanocrystals of lead halide perovskites (LHPs) was demonstrated by means of coupling of excitons with a hyperbolic metamaterial (HMM) consisting of alternating thin metal (Ag) and dielectric (LiF) layers. Such a coupling is found to induce an increase of the exciton radiative recombination rate by more than a factor of three due to the Purcell effect when the distance between the quantum emitter and HMM is nominally as small as 10 nm, which coincides well with the results of our theoretical analysis. Besides, an effect of the coupling-induced long wavelength shift of the exciton emission spectrum is detected and modeled. These results can be of i…
Optoelectronic devices based on caesium lead halide perovskite nanocrystals
2020
Tradicionalmente, la implementación de materiales activos en circuitos fotónicos integrados se ha basado en la utilización de semiconductores III-V y vidrios y materiales ferroeléctricos dopados con iones de tierras raras. Sin embargo, en la actualidad existe una alternativa basada en (nano) materiales sintetizados por técnicas de química coloidal. La posibilidad de procesar nanomateriales en solución permite fabricar semiconductores con propiedades ópticas (emisión, absorción, dispersión de luz) que pueden diseñarse durante la síntesis. Además, su naturaleza coloidal permite integrarlas en cualquier arquitectura óptica mediante sencillas técnicas de impresión en tinta. En este contexto, lo…

Optical hybrid nanocomposite sensors for selective explosive detection
2022
Durant l'última dècada, la detecció d'artefactes explosius improvisats (IEDs) tant en l'àmbit militar com civil s'ha convertit en una prioritat estratègica en la seguretat nacional a causa de la creixent amenaça terrorista. Encara que les tècniques convencionals, com la cromatografia de gasos acoblada a espectrometria de masses o la difracció de raigs X mostren notables avantatges degut a la seua elevada sensibilitat i selectivitat, una gran part d’aquestes presenten inconvenients, com per exemple processos de mesura lents, instrumentació cara, complexa i voluminosa, que limiten el mostreig en continu i en temps real. Per aquesta raó, existeix una recerca constant per trobar una plataforma …
