The numerical results for the ground-state energy of the acoustic polarons in two and three dimensions are obtained. The 3D results agree with those obtained by using the Feynman path-integral approach. It is found that the critical coupling constant of the transition from the quasifree state to the self-trapped state in the 2D case is much smaller than in the 3D case for a given cutoff wave-vector. The theory has been used to judge the possibility of the self-trapping for several real materials. The results indicate that the self-trappings of the electrons in AlN and the holes in AlN and GaN are expected to be observed in 2D systems.展开更多

文摘Vacancy-ordered double perovskites(VODPs)have attracted much attention because of their excellent photoelectric properties.However,the competition mechanism of self-trapped exciton emission and Te^(4+)ion emission in Te^(4+)-doped VODPs is still unclear.Herein,we synthesized Rb_(2)HfCl_(6)microparticles with a blue self-trapped excitons(STEs)emission,which have a near-unity photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY),the highest reported value(98.56%)for a VODP matrix.In addition,it has a new broadband yellow emission peak at 560 nm with a PLQY of 76.72%via the equivalent doping of Te^(4+)ions.The combination of the blue luminescence of pristine Rb_(2)HfCl_(6)with the yellow luminescence from the Te^(4+)ion emission could be used in fluorescence anti-counterfeiting.We also prepared a white light-emitting diode(WLED)with the Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage(CIE)coordinates at(0.3502,0.3527),a correlated color temperature(CCT)of 4814 K and a color^(-)rendering index(CRI)of 75.3.Moreover,optimized Rb_(2)HfCl_(6):Te^(4+)exhibited excellent air and thermal stability.The luminescence dynamics and theoretical calculations jointly reveal that this efficient emission originates from the electron transitions in the different paths.This work provides a new perspective and new theoretical support for the future research on ion-doped luminescent systems.

文摘The origin of the electrical and optical properties of Cu-substituted NiO(Cu:NiO)polycrystalline bulks synthesized via a solid-state reaction is reported.The partial substitution of Ni sites with Cu led to a drastic decrease of the electrical resistivity from 7.73×10^(8)to 6.51×10^(4)Ω·cm and a reduction in the energy for the self-trapping barrier from 0.58 to 0.24 eV in accordance with small polaron hopping conduction.

文摘Conventional fluorescent anti-counterfeiting techniques are monolithic,however,most of them involve single-mode emission and are easily forged.Thus,it is especially important to develop efficient multi-modal fluorescent anti-counterfeiting materials.Herein,we report a fluorescent material with double multicolor emission,Cs3 ZnI5:Mn^(2+)/Sn^(2+),that exhibits yellow-red emission at 555 nm and 690 nm under 405 nm laser excitation.Its temperature-dependent spectroscopic characteristics are used to investigate the effect of the thermal property and stability on the photoluminescence(PL)and structure of Cs_(3)ZnI_(5):Mn^(2+)/Sn^(2+),whose PL is mainly attributed to the^(3)P_(1)-^(1)S_(0)transition of the self-trapped exciton and^(4)T_(1)-^(6)A_(1)transitions of Mn^(2+).Under 360 nm laser excitation,the single crystals(SCs)show only red emission cen-tered at 670 nm,which has excitation wavelength-dependent properties and excellent thermal stability.The obtained materials are excitation wavelength-dependent,and this co-doping strategy promotes the application of novel metal halide materials in the fields of fluorescent anti-counterfeiting and information encryption/decryption.

文摘Low-dimensional hybrid organic-inorganic metal halides(OIMHs)have been extensively investigated for their structural tunability and unique optoelectronic properties.However,the synthesis of highly photoluminescent lead-free OIMHs remains challenging.To address this issue,we synthesized a series of hybrid OIMHs(DETA)_(3)InCl_(6):xSb^(3+)(DETA=diethylenetriamine,x=0-15%).With Sb^(3+)doping,the photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY)is greatly improved from 4.84%to nearly 100%.Moreover,(DETA)_(3)InCl_(6):10%Sb^(3+)single crystals exhibit strong yellow broadband emission originating from selftrapped exciton(STE)radiative recombination.Interestingly,when Sb^(3+)doping is 0.005%,the single crystal doped Sb emits white light at an excitation wavelength of 365 nm with CIE coordinates of(0.35,0.36).We also explored the effect of Sb^(3+)dopants and STE state formation by DFT calculations and ultrafast transient absorption techniques.This research provides new insights into the design of high-performance photoluminescent materials based on hybrid metal halides.

文摘The increasing demands in optoelectronic applications have driven the advancement of organic-inorganic hybrid metal halides(OIHMHs),owing to their exceptional optical transparency and high luminescence performance.In this work,three zero-dimensional OIMH single crystals of(C_(7)H_(18)N_(2))MBr_(4)(C_(7)H_(18)N_(2)=1-propylpiperazine,M=Cd,Zn,and Mn)were prepared via a facile saturated crystallization method with adjustable luminescence properties.(C_(7)H_(18)N_(2))MnBr_(4) displays intensive green light emission with the highest photoluminescence yield(PLQY)of 54.93%originating from the d-d transition of Mn^(2+).Due to filled d orbital configurations of Zn^(2+)and Cd^(2+),(C_(7)H_(18)N_(2))CdBr_(4) and(C_(7)H_(18)N_(2))ZnBr_(4) exhibited blue light owing to their stronger self-trapped excitons(STEs)recombination.Furthermore,(C_(7)H_(18)N_(2))CdBr_(4) and(C_(7)H_(18)N_(2))ZnBr_(4) exhibited another red luminescence band after grinding,originating from defect-induced STEs.In addition,due to their excellent PL performance,the white LED fabricated based on(C_(7)H_(18)N_(2))MnBr_(4) and(C_(7)H_(18)N_(2))ZnBr_(4) has demonstrated a high color rendering index(CRI)of 88.2.This work not only provides a strategy for optimizing the photoluminescence performance by modulating metal ions within the same crystal structure of OIHMHs,but also provides insights into both intrinsic STE emission and the design of high-performance luminescent materials.

文摘The emerged 3D APb_(2)X_(6)(A represents diammonium;X is Cl,Br and I)perovskitoids hold huge potential to inherit the desirable charge transport properties and functional tunability of 3D APbX3 perovskites.Limited by the Goldschmidt tolerance factor rule,the reported 3D perovskitoid species remain sparse,hindering us from exploring their structural effect dictated photoelectronic behavior.Herein,we construct novel 3D(NMDAP)Pb_(2)Br_(6)(NMDAP=N-methyl propane diammonium)composed of Pb_(2)Br_(10) dimer unit,modulated by methylated diammonium spacer and the synthetically controlled stoichiometric ratio of reactants.Significantly,3D(NMDAP)Pb_(2)Br_(6) shows remarkable self-trapped exciton(STE)emission induced by high octahedra distortion associated with strong electron–phonon coupling.The STE emission features broadband photoluminescence(PL)spectra ranging from 525 to 750 nm with a large Stokes redshift of∼0.91 eV.Photophysical investigation further reveals a large Huang–Rhys factor of∼146 and a long STE emission lifetime of 17 ns.DFT calculations suggest that the band edge states are mainly contributed by the Pb 6s/Br 4p orbitals along the equatorial direction rather than the axial direction in 3D(NMDAP)Pb_(2)Br_(6).Moreover,the asymmetric structure enables 3D(NMDAP)Pb_(2)Br_(6) anisotropic charge transport behavior,as underpinned by the experimental and theoretical investigations.As a consequence,a photoconductive detector based on 3D(NMDAP)Pb_(2)Br_(6) single crystal delivers anisotropic photoconductivity performance,with the[001]direction showing a responsivity and detectivity of 0.28 A W^(−1) and 2.12×10^(12) Jones,about 3-fold enhancement compared to those along the[100]and[010]directions.These observations offer extended functional tunability in 3D perovskitoids and reveal the potential of 3D perovskitoids in advanced optoelectronic devices.
