文摘To precisely control intrachain π-electron delocalization and interchain interaction simultaneously is the prerequisite to obtain stable and efficient deep-blue light-emitting p-n polymer semiconductors for the polymer light-emitting diodes(PLEDs).Herein,we introduced the steric carbazole-fluorene nanogrid into light-emitting diphenyl sulfone-based p-n polymer semiconductors(PG and PDG) via metal-free C-N coupling polymerization for the fabrication of deep-blue PLEDs.The steric,rigid and twisted configuration between nanogrid and diphenyl sulfone in PG and PDG present the unique characteristic of large steric hindrance interaction to suppress interchain aggregation in solid state.Due to the different length of electron-deficient diphenyl sulfone monomers,PG showed a deep-blue emission with a maximum peak at 428 nm but red-shifted to 480 nm for the PDG films.Interestingly,similar deep-blue emission behavior of PG in diluted non-polar solution and films suggested the extremely weak interchain aggregation.Finally,PLEDs based on PG are fabricated with a stable deep-blue emission of CIE(0.15,0.10),and corresponding EL spectral profile is also completely identical to PL ones of diluted solution,revealed the intrachain emission without obvious interchain excited state,confirmed effectiveness of the steric hindrance functionalization of nanogrid in p-n polymer semiconductor for deep-blue light-emitting organic optoelectronics.

文摘Stimulated emission and lasing of GaN-based laser diodes(LDs)were reported at 1995[1]and 1996[2],right after the breakthrough of p-type doping[3−5],material quality[6]and the invention of high-brightness GaN-based LEDs[7,8].However,it took much longer time for GaN-based LDs to achieve high power,high wall plug efficiency,and long lifetime.Until 2019,Nichia reported blue LDs with these performances[9],which open wide applications with GaN-based blue LDs.
文摘There is nonradiative recombination in waveguide region owing to severe carrier leakage,which in turn reduces output power and wall-plug efficiency.In this paper,we designed a novel epitaxial structure,which suppresses carrier leakage by inserting n-Ga_(0.55)In_(0.45)P and p-GaAs_(0.6)P_(0.4) between barriers and waveguide layers,respectively,to modulate the energy band structure and to increase the height of barrier.The results show that the leakage current density reduces by 87.71%,compared to traditional structure.The nonradiative recombination current density of novel structure reduces to 37.411 A/cm^(2),and the output power reaches 12.80 W with wall-plug efficiency of 78.24%at an injection current density 5 A/cm^(2) at room temperature.In addition,the temperature drift coefficient of center wavelength is 0.206 nm/℃at the temperature range from 5℃to 65℃,and the slope of fitted straight line of threshold current with temperature variation is 0.00113.The novel epitaxial structure provides a theoretical basis for achieving high-power laser diode.
文摘This paper describes what is thought to be the first generation of a continuous wave deep ultraviolet laser at 275 nm by efficient frequency doubling of a blue-diode-pumped Pr:YLF laser at 550 nm.By employing a novel fast-axis collimated blue semiconductor laser as the pump source,combined with a folded cavity and innovation coating technology,and utilizing a Brewster-cut BBO crystal for intracavity frequency doubling,TEM00 mode deep UV laser radiation at 275 nm with an output power of 351 mW is obtained.This marks the first report of achieving 275 nm laser generation based on Pr:LiYF4 to date.

文摘The packaging quality of coaxial laser diodes(CLDs)plays a pivotal role in determining their optical performance and long-term reliability.As the core packaging process,high-precision laser welding requires precise control of process parameters to suppress optical power loss.However,the complex nonlinear relationship between welding parameters and optical power loss renders traditional trial-and-error methods inefficient and imprecise.To address this challenge,a physics-informed(PI)and data-driven collaboration approach for welding parameter optimization is proposed.First,thermal-fluid-solid coupling finite element method(FEM)was employed to quantify the sensitivity of welding parameters to physical characteristics,including residual stress.This analysis facilitated the identification of critical factors contributing to optical power loss.Subsequently,a Gaussian process regression(GPR)model incorporating finite element simulation prior knowledge was constructed based on the selected features.By introducing physics-informed kernel(PIK)functions,stress distribution patterns were embedded into the prediction model,achieving high-precision optical power loss prediction.Finally,a Bayesian optimization(BO)algorithm with an adaptive sampling strategy was implemented for efficient parameter space exploration.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposedmethod effectively establishes explicit physical correlations between welding parameters and optical power loss.The optimized welding parameters reduced optical power loss by 34.1%,providing theoretical guidance and technical support for reliable CLD packaging.

文摘Moisture measurement is of great needs in semiconductor industry, combustion diagnosis, meteorology, and atmospheric studies. We present an optical hygrometer based on cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS). By using different absorption lines of H20 in the 1.56 and 1.36 gm regions, we are able to determine the relative concentration (mole fraction) of water vapor from a few percent down to the 10-12 level. The quantitative accuracy is examined by comparing the CRDS hygrometer with a commercial chilled-mirror dew-point meter. The high sensitivity of the CRDS instrument allows a water detection limit of 8 pptv.

文摘The growth of multi-layer InGaAs/InAs/GaAs self-assembled quantum dots (QDs) by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) is investigated,and a QD laser diode lasing at 1.33μm in continuous operation mode at room temperature is reported. The full width at half maximum of the band edge emitting peaks of the photoluminescence (PL) spectra at room temperature is less than 35meV for most of the multi-layer QD samples,revealing good,reproducible MBE growth conditions. Moreover,atomic force microscopy images show that the QD surface density can be controlled in the range from 1×10^10 to 7 ×10^10 cm^-2 . The best PL properties are obtained at a QD surface density of about 4×10^10cm^-2. Edge emitting lasers containing 3 and 5 stacked QD layers as the active layer lasing at room temperature in continuous wave operation mode are reported.
