Seedless assembly of colloidal crystals by inverted micro-fluidic pumping
2018
We propose a simple seedless approach to assemble millimeter sized monolayer single colloidal crystals with desired orientations at predetermined locations on an unstructured charged substrate. This approach utilizes the millimeter-ranged fluid flow on the bottom glass substrate induced by an ion exchange resin (IEX) fixed on top of the closed sample cell. This fluid flow increases with decreasing height of the sample cell and increasing radius R of the IEX. For a single inverted pump, millimeter sized monolayer single crystals of hexagonal close packing can be obtained. For two closely spaced (D ~ 4R) pumps, the formed crystals have a predefined orientation along the line connecting the tw…
Transparent amorphous memory cell: A bipolar resistive switching in ZnO/Pr0.7Ca0.3MnO3/ITO for invisible electronics application
2014
Abstract ZnO/Pr0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (ZnO/PCMO) amorphous thin films were grown on an indium-tin-oxide (ITO)/glass by pulsed laser deposition at room temperature. Interestingly, a stable bipolar resistive switching behavior of the ITO/ZnO/PCMO/ITO cell can be longer than 2.5 × 103 cycles. The on/off ratio of switching behaviors is as high as 104. The structure of ITO/ZnO/PCMO/ITO exhibits a high average transparency of 79.6% in the visible range with a maximum transparency of 84.6% at 590 nm wavelength. The conductive mechanism during switching cycling in our structure can be described by a trapped-control space charge limited current behavior. The ZnO/PCMO/ITO/glass structure shows a potential of t…
Self-Trapped Localized Modes in Photonic Crystal Fibers
2002
We demonstrate the existence of self-trapped localized modes in photonic crystal fibers. We analyze these solutions in terms of the parameters of the photonic crystal cladding and the nonlinear coupling.
Continuous‐Flow Synthesis of High‐Quality Few‐Layer Antimonene Hexagons
2021
2D materials show outstanding properties that can bring many applications in different technological fields. However, their uses are still limited by production methods. In this context, antimonene is recently suggested as a new 2D material to fabricate different (opto)electronic devices, among other potential applications. This work focuses on optimizing the synthetic parameters to produce high-quality antimonene hexagons and their implementation in a large-scale manufacturing procedure. By means of a continuous-flow synthesis, few-layer antimonene hexagons with ultra-large lateral dimensions (up to several microns) and a few nanometers thick are isolated. The suitable chemical post-treatm…
High Optical Performance of Cyan‐Emissive CsPbBr3 Perovskite Quantum Dots Embedded in Molecular Organogels
2021
This is the pre-peer reviewed version of the following article: High Optical Performance of Cyan‐Emissive CsPbBr3 Perovskite Quantum Dots Embedded in Molecular Organogels, which has been published in final form at https://doi.org/10.1002/adom.202001786. This article may be used for non-commercial purposes in accordance with Wiley Terms and Conditions for Use of Self-Archived Versions." Perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) have fascinating optoelectronic properties, such as high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) for a broad range of materials, and the possibility to obtain different bandgaps with the same material or halide combinations. Nevertheless, blue‐emissive materials generally present…
Design and Implementation of Density Sensor for Liquids Using Fiber Bragg Grating Sensor
2022
In this paper, an optical fiber sensor based density sensor is proposed and demonstrated experimentally. The sensor is formed by fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor. The proposed sensor design is very simple and versatile for density measurements of liquids. The FBG strain sensor has one end mounted to a 3D printed rigid support, and the other end connected to a 3D manufactured clamp in this sensor design. A metal ball is suspended from this clamp by a non-stretchable cord. When it is completely immersed in liquid, the liquid buoyancy force acts on it. As a result, the strain in FBG varies depending on the force applied to the ball. This results in a wavelength shift in the FBG sensor. The pro…
Light-induced ionic processes in optical oxide glasses
1991
Abstract The density of optical glasses is changed by the influence of light capable of generating color centers in these materials. Such defect generation is not only an electronic process, but an atomic displacement is also necessary. The strong localization of electronic and vibrational excitations in the glass network leads to the high efficiency of sub-threshold defect generation. Secondary ionic processes lead to the changes of basic glass properties (light refractive index, density, mechanical strength, etc.); thus, it is possible to use optical glasses as light detectors for appropriate wavelengths.
Responsivity measurements of 4H-SiC Schottky photodiodes for UV light monitoring
2014
We report on the design and the electro-optical characterization of a novel class of 4H-SiC vertical Schottky UV detectors, based on the pinch-off surface effect and obtained employing Ni2Si interdigitated strips. We have measured, in dark conditions, the forward and reverse I–V characteristics as a function of the temperature and the C–V characteristics. Responsivity measurements of the devices, as a function of the wavelength (in the 200 – 400 nm range), of the package temperature and of the applied reverse bias are reported. We compared devices featured by different strip pitch size, and found that the 10 μm device pitch exhibits the best results, being the best compromise in terms of fu…
Pressure sensor development based on Dielectric Electro Active Polymers
2012
The Dielectric Electro Active Polymer's (DEAP's) sensing capabilities is one of the main trio-characteristics of the material applicable area's, the trio-formations as applicable use are actuator, transducer and last but not least sensor. It is noted here that one of the main value propositions whenever DEAP material is used is the dual characteristics as the sensing/actuating capability.
