It is found that with the increasing doping content, the Fermi levels of samples progressively shift upward. Prominently, an extra electron pocket crossing the Fermi level around the M point is evidently observed in the 15% nominal doping sample. Moreover, bulk-sensitive transport measurements confirm that the doping effectively suppresses the insulating state with respect to the as-grown Sr2IrO4, though the doped samples still remain insulating at low temperatures due to the localization effect possibly stemming from disorders including oxygen deficiencies. Our work provides another feasible doping method to tune electronic structure of Sr2 IrO4.展开更多

By doping Ce^(3+) into different layers with different doping concentrations, a systematical investigation on the tunable upconversion luminescence from green to red was conducted. The results showed that a remarkable color tuning could be achieved from green to red when increasing the doping concentration of Ce^(3+) in the same layer of Ho^(3+). And if Ce^(3+) and Ho^(3+) were separated in different layers, the color tuning would be depressed significantly due to the reduced cross-relaxation between Ho^(3+) and Ce^(3+). Moreover, the UC emission intensity of core@shell and core@shell@shell was enhanced significantly compared with that of unmodified core nanoparticles.展开更多
