Laborious synthetic processes for functionalizing polymer dielectrics with photo-cross-linkable groups were avoided. The photo-cross-linker, BBP-4, was added into host polymers by simple solution blending process, which was capable of abstracting hydrogen atoms from polymers containing active C--H groups upon exposure to ultraviolet （UV） radiation. The cross-linking can be completed with a relatively long wavelength UV light （365 nm）. The approach has been applied to methacrylate and styrenic polymers such as commercial poly（methylmethacrylate） （PMMA）, poly（iso-butylmethacrylate） （PiBMA） and poly（4-methylstyrene） （PMS）. The cross-linked networks enhanced dielectric properties and solvent resistance of the thin films. The bottom-gate organic field-effect transistors （OFETs） through all solution processes on plastic substrate were fabricated. The OFET devices showed low voltage operation and steep subthreshold swing at relatively small gate dielectric capacitance.展开更多

By changing the ratio of two thermally activated delayed fluorescent(TADF) emitters, we studied the performance of device and its mechanism. A solution processed OLED with a structure of indium tin oxide(ITO, 150 nm)/PEDOT:PSS(30 nm)/CBP:4 Cz IPN-x%:4 Cz PN-y%(30 nm)/TPBi(40 nm)/Li F(1 nm)/Al(100 nm) was fabricated.

By investigating the tendency of current density change in devices with different doping ratio, we suggested that the enhancement of the current efficiency should be due to the charge transport balance improvement induced by assist dopant in EML.展开更多

As a result, a certified power conversion efficiency(PCE) of 25.5% was recorded in late 2020. Although this efficiency is comparable with silicon solar cells;some issues remain partially unsolved, such as lead toxicity, instability of perovskite materials under continuous illumination, moisture and oxygen, and degradation of the metallic counter electrodes. As an alternative to tackle this last concern, carbon materials have been recently used, due to their good electrical and thermal conductivity, and chemical stability, which makes them one of the most promising materials to replace metallic counter electrodes in the fabrication of PSCs. This review highlights the recent advances of carbon-based PSCs, where the carbon electrode(CE) is the main actor.CEs have become very promising candidates for PSCs;they are mainly fabricated using a simple combination of graphite and carbon black powders embedded in a binder matrix, giving a paste that is then solution-processable, resulting in devices with improved quality stability, when compared to metallic electrodes. In this review, CE’s composition is emphasized, since it can give both, high and lowtemperature processed electrodes, compatible with different device configurations. Finally, the tendencies and opportunities to use CE in PSCs devices are presented.展开更多

In this work, a new electron-donating segment, 2,7-di(9 H-carbazol-9-yl)-9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine(2 Cz-DMAC), was designed to develop solution-processable non-doped TADF emitters. 2 Cz-DMAC can not only simultaneously increase the solubility of compounds and suppress harmful aggregation-caused quenching, but also efficiently broaden the delocalization of the highest occupied molecular orbital and promote the reverse intersystem crossing process. Three new TADF emitters, 2-(2,7-di(9 H-carbazol-9-yl)-9,9-dimethylacridin-10(9 H)-yl)dibenzo[b,d]thiophene 5,5-dioxide(2 Cz-DMAC-BTB), 2-(2,7-di(9 H-carbazol-9-yl)-9,9-dimethylacridin-10(9 H)-yl)-9 H-thioxanthen-9-one(2 Cz-DMAC-TXO), 2-(2,7-di(9 H-carbazol-9-yl)-9,9-dimethylacridin-10(9 H)-yl)thianthrene 5,5,10,10-tetraoxide(2 Cz-DMAC-TTR), were developed by using 2 Cz-DMAC segment as the electron-donor. As anticipated, the solution-processed non-doped OLEDs employing 2 Cz-DMAC-BTB, 2 Cz-DMAC-TXO and 2 CzDMAC-TTR as the emitters respectively exhibited green, orange and red emissions with maximum external quantum efficiencies of 14.0%, 6.6% and 2.9%. These results successfully demonstrate the feasibility and convenience of developing efficient solution-processable non-doped TADF emitters based on 2 CzDMAC segment.展开更多

Well aligned crystals of the three molecules were grown from para-xylene by droplet-pinned crystallization method. FETs based on these aligned crystals exhibit a hole mobility up to0.19 cm^2 V 1s 1and electron mobility up to 0.008 cm^2 V 1s 1. The achieved hole mobility is of the same order of magnitude as reported highest hole mobility for DPP-based small molecules, but it is much lower than that of the high-performance DPP-based polymers. The relative low mobility is mainly attributed to the rough crystal surfaces with steps and, thus, non-smooth charge transport channels at the interfaces between the crystals and the dielectrics. This work has implications for understanding the low charge mobility of DPP-based small molecules.展开更多

However, fabrication of CsPbI3 perovskite via facile solution process hasbeen difficult due to instability of CsPbl3 in the perovskite cubic phase in ambient air. Herein, we reportthe synthesis of CsPbl3 perovskite microcrystals by low-temperature, catalyst-free, solution-phasemethod. By applying the time-resolve spectroscopic technique, we determine the carrier diffusioncoefficient of 0.6-1.2 cm2/s, the intrinsic carrier lifetimes of 200-1300 ns and diffusion length of4-10 μm in different individual CsPbl3 perovskite microcrystals. Our results suggest the CsPbl3 perovskitemicrocrystals synthesized by solution process exhibit high quality feature and are suitable forapplications in optoelectronic devices.展开更多

Analytical solutions based on loss-less tube model and average friction tube model are found respectively by using fluid net theory, and they fit the experimental results well. The research work shows that： Fluid net theory can be used to solve the analytical solution of filling and exhausting processes of pneumatic system, and the result of loss-less tube model is close to that of average friction model, so loss-less tube model is recommended since it is simpler, and the difference between filling time and exhausting time is determined by initial and final pressures, the volume of container and the section area of tube, and has nothing to do with the length of the tube.展开更多

For every fixed is, we can use the Prufer substitution to prove the existence of the random solutions lambda(n) and u(n) in the meaning of large probability. These solutions can be expanded in epsilon regularly, and their correction terms can be obtained by solving some random linear differential equations.展开更多

However, it is still ...Solution processability is a unique property of organic semiconductors. The compact and regular π-π stacking between molecules is paramount in the performance of organic optoelectronic devices. However, it is still a challenge to improve their stacking quality without sacrificing the solution-processability from the aspect of materials design. Here, delicately engineered additives are presented to promote the formation of ordered aggregation of conjugated molecules by regulating their nucleation and growth dynamics. Intriguingly, the long-chain BTP-eC9-4F molecules can realize ordered aggregation comparable to short-chain ones without sacrificing processability. The domain size of BTP-eC9-4F aggregation is enlarged from 24.2 to 32.2 nm in blend films.Thereby exciton diffusion and charge transport become faster, contributing to the suppression of recombination losses. As a result, a power conversion efficiency of 19.2% is achieved in D18:BTP-eC9-4F based organic photovoltaics. Our findings demonstrate a facile strategy to improve the packing quality of solution-processed organic semiconductors for high-efficiency photovoltaics and beyond photovoltaics.展开更多

文摘Thermally activated delayed fluorescent(TADF) materials capable of efficient solution-processed nondoped organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs) are of important and practical significance for further development of OLEDs. In this work, a new electron-donating segment, 2,7-di(9 H-carbazol-9-yl)-9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine(2 Cz-DMAC), was designed to develop solution-processable non-doped TADF emitters. 2 Cz-DMAC can not only simultaneously increase the solubility of compounds and suppress harmful aggregation-caused quenching, but also efficiently broaden the delocalization of the highest occupied molecular orbital and promote the reverse intersystem crossing process. Three new TADF emitters, 2-(2,7-di(9 H-carbazol-9-yl)-9,9-dimethylacridin-10(9 H)-yl)dibenzo[b,d]thiophene 5,5-dioxide(2 Cz-DMAC-BTB), 2-(2,7-di(9 H-carbazol-9-yl)-9,9-dimethylacridin-10(9 H)-yl)-9 H-thioxanthen-9-one(2 Cz-DMAC-TXO), 2-(2,7-di(9 H-carbazol-9-yl)-9,9-dimethylacridin-10(9 H)-yl)thianthrene 5,5,10,10-tetraoxide(2 Cz-DMAC-TTR), were developed by using 2 Cz-DMAC segment as the electron-donor. As anticipated, the solution-processed non-doped OLEDs employing 2 Cz-DMAC-BTB, 2 Cz-DMAC-TXO and 2 CzDMAC-TTR as the emitters respectively exhibited green, orange and red emissions with maximum external quantum efficiencies of 14.0%, 6.6% and 2.9%. These results successfully demonstrate the feasibility and convenience of developing efficient solution-processable non-doped TADF emitters based on 2 CzDMAC segment.

文摘Three carbazole-based multiple resonance dendrimers namely D1-BNN,D2-BNN and D3-BNN,are developed for solution-processed narrowband blue organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs)by introducing the first-,second-,and third-generation carbazole dendrons in periphery of boron,nitrogen-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon skeleton.Different from D1-BNN containing first-generation carbazole dendron showing moderate photoluminescent quantum efficiency(PLQY)of 68%in solid state and broadened emission bands with full-width at half maximum(FWHM)increasing from 26 nm to 34 nm upon doping concentration growing from 10 wt%to 40 wt%,D3-BNN with the third-generation carbazole dendron exhibits high PLQY of 92%and weak dependence of photoluminescent spectra on doping concentration,which can remain narrowband emissions with unchanged FWHM of 24 nm at same doping concentration range.Solution-processed OLEDs employing D3-BNN as emitter reveal blue electroluminescence at 477 nm with FWHM of 24 nm,and maximum external quantum efficiency(EQE)of 17.3%which is kept at 14.4%at doping concentration of 40 wt%,much superior than the D1-BNN devices showing maximum EQE of 13.0%that drops to 3.7%at 40 wt%doping concentration.

文摘High-efficiency phosphorescent materials serve as the cornerstone for the advancement of organic lightemitting diodes(OLEDs).It is well-established that the incorporation of nitrogen heterocycles and the modulation of structural rigidity and conjugation can enhance the electron transfer capability and luminous efficiency of the complexes,which are indispensable for achieving high-performance devices.In this study,we report three iridium(III)complexes,namely(4-tfmptp)_(2)Ir(pic),(4-tfmptp)_(2)Ir(3-ppca),and(4-tfmptp)_(2)Ir(3-iqca).These complexes feature the rigid 4-tfmptp(4-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine)as the primary ligand,with pic(picolinic acid),3-ppca(pyrrolo[1,2-c]pyrimidine-3-carboxylic acid),and 3-iqca(isoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid)as the auxiliary ligands,respectively.In comparison to the complex(4-tfmptp)_(2)Ir(pic)based on the classic auxiliary ligand pic,the emission peaks of(4-tfmptp)_(2)Ir(3-ppca)and(4-tfmptp)_(2)Ir(3-iqca)remain largely unchanged,at around 568 nm.However,their photoluminescence quantum yields(PLQYs)in CH_(2)Cl_(2) improve remarkably,increasing from 53.6%to 93.6%and 97.2%,respectively.Furthermore,solution-processed OLEDs based on(4-tfmptp)_(2)Ir(3-ppca)and(4-tfmptp)_(2)Ir(3-iqca)exhibited exceptional device performances,with maximum current efficiencies of 74.2 and 91.4 cd A^(−1),and maximum external quantum efficiencies(EQE_(max))of 27.8%and 31.4%,respectively.These results suggest the modification of auxiliary ligand can affect the photophysical properties of the Ir(III)complexes greatly.

文摘To investigate groundwater flow and solute transport characteristics of the karst trough zone in China,tracer experiments were conducted at two adjacent typical karst groundwater flow systems(Yuquandong(YQD)and Migongquan(MGQ))in Sixi valley,western Hubei,China.Highresolution continuous monitoring was utilized to obtain breakthrough curves(BTCs),which were then analyzed using the multi-dispersion model(MDM)and the two-region nonequilibrium model(2RNE)with basic parameters calculated by CXTFIT and QTRACER2.Results showed that:(1)YQD flow system had a complex infiltration matrix with overland flow,conduit flow and fracture flow,while the MGQ flow system was dominated by conduit flow with fast flow transport velocity,but also small amount of fracture flow there;(2)They were well fitted based on the MDM(R^2=0.928)and 2RNE(R^2=0.947)models,indicating that they had strong adaptability in the karst trough zone;(3)conceptual models for YQD and MGQ groundwater systems were generalized.In YQD system,the solute was transported via overland flow during intense rainfall,while some infiltrated down into fissures and conduits.In MGQ system,most were directly transported to spring outlet in the fissureconduit network.

文摘It is confirmed that phase homogenization is very important for improving the magnetic properties of 2:17-type Sm-Co sintered magnets,In this work,the influence of solid solution process on microstructure and magnetic properties of the Sm(CobalFe0.233Cu0.073Zr0.024)7.6 sintered magnets was systematically studied.With the solid-solution treating duration(tS)increasing from 0 to 4 h,intrinsic coercivity(Hcj)increases from 12.83 to 36.54 kOe,magnetic field at knee-point(Hknee)increases from2.76 to 19.14 kOe,and the maximum energy product increases from 19.79 to 29.48 MGOe.The electron probe microanalyzer results reveal that there mainly exist gray and dark regions besides"white"rare earth-rich phase,and the conte nt of Sm,Fe and Cu elements for the two kinds of regions changes a lot for the specimens,Furthermore,with tS increasing up to 4 h,the elements content deviation between the gray and dark regions becomes small gradually from 3.94 at%to 0.27 at%,7.66 at%to 0.21 at%and 7.27 at%to 0.16 at%for Sm,Fe and Cu elements,respectively.Moreover,transmission electron microscopy results show that the distribution of cell size is much more concentrated for aged specimens when tS is 4 h.It is also found that the Cu concentration at cell boundaries for the 4 h solid-solution treatment case shows relatively higher values and greater concentration gradient(1.94 at%/nm).It is verified that sufficient solution treatment duration is prerequisite to form these homogeneous microstructural features,which are the key points for obtaining both high Hcj and Hknee.

文摘Field-effect transistors（FETs） of three diketopyrrolopyrroles（DPP）-based small molecules, 3,6-bis（5-phenylthiophene-2-yl）-2,5-bis（2-ethylhexyl）pyrrolopyrrole-1,4-dione（PDPPP）, 3,6-bis（5-（4-fluorophenyl）thiophene-2-yl）-2,5-bis（2-ethylhexyl）pyrrolo pyrrole-1,4-dione（FPDPPPF） and 3,6-bis（5-（4-n-butylphenyl）thiophene-2-yl）-2,5-bis（2-ethylhexyl）pyrrolo pyrrole-1,4-dione（Bu PDPPPBu）, have been studied in this work. Well aligned crystals of the three molecules were grown from para-xylene by droplet-pinned crystallization method. FETs based on these aligned crystals exhibit a hole mobility up to0.19 cm^2 V 1s 1and electron mobility up to 0.008 cm^2 V 1s 1. The achieved hole mobility is of the same order of magnitude as reported highest hole mobility for DPP-based small molecules, but it is much lower than that of the high-performance DPP-based polymers. The relative low mobility is mainly attributed to the rough crystal surfaces with steps and, thus, non-smooth charge transport channels at the interfaces between the crystals and the dielectrics. This work has implications for understanding the low charge mobility of DPP-based small molecules.

文摘All-inorganic cesium lead halide perovskites （CsPbX3, X=CF, Br-, I-） could provide comparableoptoelectronic properties as a promising class of materials for photovoltaic cell （PV）, photodetector andlight-emitting diode （LED） with enhanced thermal and moisture stabilities compared to organic-inorganic lead halide species. However, fabrication of CsPbI3 perovskite via facile solution process hasbeen difficult due to instability of CsPbl3 in the perovskite cubic phase in ambient air. Herein, we reportthe synthesis of CsPbl3 perovskite microcrystals by low-temperature, catalyst-free, solution-phasemethod. By applying the time-resolve spectroscopic technique, we determine the carrier diffusioncoefficient of 0.6-1.2 cm2/s, the intrinsic carrier lifetimes of 200-1300 ns and diffusion length of4-10 μm in different individual CsPbl3 perovskite microcrystals. Our results suggest the CsPbl3 perovskitemicrocrystals synthesized by solution process exhibit high quality feature and are suitable forapplications in optoelectronic devices.

文摘The filling and exhausting processes in a pneumatic system are involved with many factors, and numerical solutions of many partial differential equations are always adapted in the study of those processes, which have been proved to be troublesome and less intuitive. Analytical solutions based on loss-less tube model and average friction tube model are found respectively by using fluid net theory, and they fit the experimental results well. The research work shows that： Fluid net theory can be used to solve the analytical solution of filling and exhausting processes of pneumatic system, and the result of loss-less tube model is close to that of average friction model, so loss-less tube model is recommended since it is simpler, and the difference between filling time and exhausting time is determined by initial and final pressures, the volume of container and the section area of tube, and has nothing to do with the length of the tube.
文摘This paper considers an eigenvalue problem containing small stochastic processes. For every fixed is, we can use the Prufer substitution to prove the existence of the random solutions lambda(n) and u(n) in the meaning of large probability. These solutions can be expanded in epsilon regularly, and their correction terms can be obtained by solving some random linear differential equations.

文摘Solution processability is a unique property of organic semiconductors. The compact and regular π-π stacking between molecules is paramount in the performance of organic optoelectronic devices. However, it is still a challenge to improve their stacking quality without sacrificing the solution-processability from the aspect of materials design. Here, delicately engineered additives are presented to promote the formation of ordered aggregation of conjugated molecules by regulating their nucleation and growth dynamics. Intriguingly, the long-chain BTP-eC9-4F molecules can realize ordered aggregation comparable to short-chain ones without sacrificing processability. The domain size of BTP-eC9-4F aggregation is enlarged from 24.2 to 32.2 nm in blend films.Thereby exciton diffusion and charge transport become faster, contributing to the suppression of recombination losses. As a result, a power conversion efficiency of 19.2% is achieved in D18:BTP-eC9-4F based organic photovoltaics. Our findings demonstrate a facile strategy to improve the packing quality of solution-processed organic semiconductors for high-efficiency photovoltaics and beyond photovoltaics.

文摘In spite of the high potential economic feasibility of the tandem solar cells consisting of the halide perovskite and the kesterite Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4(CZTSSe),they have rarely been demonstrated due to the difficulty in implementing solution-processed perovskite top cell on the rough surface of the bottom cells.Here,we firstly demonstrate an efficient monolithic two-terminal perovskite/CZTSSe tandem solar cell by significantly reducing the surface roughness of the electrochemically deposited CZTSSe bottom cell.The surface roughness(R_(rms))of the CZTSSe thin film could be reduced from 424 to 86 nm by using the potentiostatic mode rather than using the conventional galvanostatic mode,which can be further reduced to 22 nm after the subsequent ion-milling process.The perovskite top cell with a bandgap of 1.65 eV could be prepared using a solution process on the flattened CZTSSe bottom cell,resulting in the efficient perovskite/CZTSSe tandem solar cells.After the current matching between two subcells involving the thickness control of the perovskite layer,the best performing tandem device exhibited a high conversion efficiency of 17.5%without the hysteresis effect.

文摘The development of high-performance non-fullerene acceptors with extended exciton diffusion lengths has positioned the sequential layer-by-layer(LBL)solution processing technique as a promising approach for fabricating high-performance and large-area organic solar cells(OSCs).This method allows for the independent dissolution and deposition of donor and acceptor materials,enabling precise morphology control.In this review,we provide a comprehensive overview of the LBL processing technique,focusing on the morphology of the active layer.The swelling intercalation phase-separation(SIPS)model is introduced as the mainstream theory of morphology evolution,with a detailed discussion on vertical phase separation.We summarize recent strategies for morphology optimization.Additionally,we review the progress in LBL-based large-area device and module fabrication,as well as green processing approaches.Finally,we highlight current challenges and future prospects,paving the way for the commercialization of LBL-processed OSCs.

文摘Organic crystals,especially ultra-thin two-dimensional(2D)ones such as monolayer molecular crystals,are fragile and vulnerable to traditional vacuum deposition.Up to now,most of the methods reported for fabricating organic field-effect transistors(OFETs)with top-electrodes on the 2D molecular crystals are based on mechanical-transfer method.Nondestructive method for large scale in-situ electrode deposition is urgent.In this work,the silver mirror reaction(SMR)is introduced to construct top-contact electrodes on 2D organic crystalline thin films.OFETs based on bilayer crystalline films with solution-processed silver electrodes show comparable performance to devices with transferred gold electrodes.In addition to that,OFETs with SMR fabricated silver electrodes show lower contact resistance than the ones with evaporated silver electrodes.Furthermore,the temperature under which SMR electrodes annealed is relatively low(60℃),making this approach applicable to varies of organic semiconductors,such as spin-coated polymer films,vacuum evaporated films,2D and even monolayer crystalline films.Besides,OFETs with sub-micrometer channel width and 25μm channel length are realized which might find practical application in the ultra-small pixel mini/micro-LEDs.
