Electroluminescence of colloidal ZnSe quantum dots

The article reports a green chemical synthesis of colloidal ZnSe quantum dots at a moderate temperature. The prepared colloid sample is characterised by UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. UV-vis spectroscopy reveals as-expected blue-shift with strong absorption edge at 400 nm and micrographs show a non-uniform size distribution of ZnSe quantum dots in the range 1-4 nm. Further, photoluminescence and electroluminescence spectroscopies are carried out to study optical emission. Each of the spectroscopies reveals two emission peaks, indicating band-to-band transition and defect related transition. From the luminescence studies, it can be inferred that the recombination of electrons and holes resulting from interband transition causes violet emission and the recombination of a photon generated hole with a charged state of Zn-vacancy gives blue emission. Meanwhile electroluminescence study suggests the application of ZnSe quantum dots as an efficient light emitting device with the advantage of colour tuning (violet-blue-violet).     

水溶性CdTe量子点的稳态和纳秒时间分辨光致发光光谱

报道了以飞秒脉冲激光为激发光源的水溶性CdTe量子点(QDs)的稳态荧光光谱和纳秒时间分辨荧光光谱.实验发现CdTe量子点的荧光光谱峰值位置随激发波长变化发生明显移动，激发脉冲波长越长，荧光峰位红移越大.荧光动力学实验数据显示，在400nm和800nm脉冲激光激发下，水溶性CdTe量子点的荧光光谱中均含有激子态和诱捕态两个衰减成分，两者的发射峰相距很近，诱捕态的发射峰波长较长.在800nm脉冲激光激发下的诱捕态成分占总荧光强度的比重比400nm激发下的约高3倍，其相对强度的这种变化导致了稳态荧光发射峰位的红移. 关键词： CdTe 量子点 时间分辨 荧光光谱 上转换荧光

本文用热扩散的方法在Zn饱和蒸气压下,把Al掺杂到高纯ZnSe单晶中,通过77K下的光致发光光谱研究了Al杂质的发光行为,讨论了施主一受主对发射强度、自激活中心发射强度随掺杂温度的变化规律以及与Zn饱和蒸气压的关系.本文首次报道了在300℃～900℃温度范围内进行Al掺杂的ZnSe的发光规律.     

ZnSe/SiO2半导体量子点玻璃的光谱特性

对采用溶胶凝胶法制备的ZnSe/SiO2半导体量子点玻璃的光谱性质进行了测试分析.UV-Vis透射光谱中观察到光吸收边相对于体相半导体有明显蓝移.稳态发射光谱(PL)中观察到ZnSe纳米晶体的位于蓝区的基本呈高斯分布的弱的最低激子发射峰、强而宽的表面态发光带以及对应杂质能级的三个锐峰发光.时间分辨荧光光谱(TRPL)中观察到发光效率高的最低激子发射峰,并测量其荧光衰减寿命,经尾部拟合为28.5 ps.同时,结合有效质量近似(EMA)模型,估计ZnSe纳米晶体的平均粒径介于2.45~3.60 nm之间,尺寸分布基本呈高斯型.     

ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS量子点发光光谱特性的研究

ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS量子点是一种无毒,无重金属的“绿色”半导体纳米材料。在研究中,制备了三种尺寸的ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS核壳量子点,其直径分别为3.3,2.7,2.3 nm。通过测量不同尺寸的ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS量子点的光致发光光谱,其发射峰值波长随尺寸的减小而蓝移。其吸收峰值波长和发射峰值波长分别是510,611(3.3 nm),483,583(2.7 nm)以及447,545 nm(2.3 nm)。ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS量子点具有显著的尺寸依赖效应。ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS量子点的斯托克斯位移分别为398 meV(3.3 nm),436 meV(2.7 nm)以及498 meV(2.3 nm),这样大的斯托克斯位移证明,ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS量子点的发光机制与缺陷能级有关。同时,对直径为3.3 nm的ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS量子点进行了温度依赖的光致发光光谱的测量,当温度为15～90 ℃时,该量子点发射峰值波长随温度的升高而红移,发光强度随温度的升高而降低,说明ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS量子点是以导带能级与缺陷能级之间跃迁为主的复合发光。     

真空中加热衬底对ZnSe MIS二极管电致发光的影响

本文研究了在制备ZnSe MIS二极管的绝缘层时,为了改善IS间的界面接触,在真空中加热ZnSe衬底,其结果虽然使电致发光的均匀性有所改善,却使原来的蓝色电致发光变为红色。文中着重研究了红色电致发光的起源,在液氮温度下出现的二个峰值为5350Å和6320Å的谱带应分别归结为ZnSe晶体中的铜绿(Cu-G)和铜红(Cu-R)发光中心。文中指出,真空中加热的条件,使ZnSe晶体中残留的Cu杂质从非发光中心状态转变为发光中心状态。因此,要改善ZnSe晶体蓝色电致发光的性能,进一步提高ZnSe晶体的纯度是十分重要的。     

Temperature dependent photoluminescence studies of ZnSe:I single crystals grown by chemical vapor transport

The single crystal ZnSe:I sample was grown by the chemical vapor transport (CVT) method using iodine as the transporting agent. The iodine incorporates itself effectively as a donor in the lattice. The sample shows a 〈111〉 optical quality surface and has an absorption edge at 2.55 eV due to a deep impurity band nearly 0.15eV below the conduction band. The photoluminescence emission spectra of this crystal have been measured for its temperature dependence as well as for excitation energy dependence. The photoluminescence is in accordance with a donor-acceptor complex formation involving iodine activated donors and self-activated acceptors. The configuration coordinate model has been used to explain the temperature dependent changes in the peak position and the bandwidth of the emission band. The decrease in luminescence efficiency with increasing temperature is explained by using a simple model for thermal quenching. The activation energy at low temperature range (T<200K) is different from that at high temperature range (200K<T<300K).

Synthesis and PL Properties of ZnSe Nanowires with Zincblende and Wurtzite Structures

Single crystalline ZnSe nanowires with both zincblende and wurtzite structures have been synthesized via a chemical vapour deposition method under different growth conditions. The nanowires are usually 50-80nm in diameter, and several tens of microns in length. Room-temperature photoluminescence spectra from zincblende and wurtzite ZnSe nanowires show a broad luminescence band peaked at around 2. 71 e V and a deep level emission band peaked at around 2.00 eV, respectively. Effects of post-growth annealing on the photoluminescence of these nanowires have been investigated. Strong room-temperature band-edge emission could be obtained from the annealed zincblende ZnSe nanowires.     

硅中稀土掺杂层的光致发光研究及其关键问题

利用离子注入技术,对稀土掺杂到半导体单晶硅中的光致发光行为进行了研究。室温下得到了La,Ce和Nd稀土掺杂层的蓝紫色光致发光光谱,并首次观测到硅中稀土掺杂层室温下的光致上转换发光现象。光致发光强度随着稀土掺杂量的增加和热处理温度的上升急剧增强。在紫外光激发下,发光强度随着激发光波长的减小而增大;在光致上转换过程中,发光强度随着激发波长的增加而上升。这表明光致发光强度与稀土元素的掺杂量、掺杂层的结构与热处理温度有密切的关系。文章对在室温下这些稀土掺杂层的光致发光行为进行了分析,并提出了硅中稀土掺杂层光致发光行为研究今后需要重点解决的几个主要问题。     

Recombination luminescence in lead tungstate scintillating crystals

Room temperature radioluminescence and photoluminescence decay kinetics measurements of Ba-doped PbWO₄ crystals were compared with those of undoped and Mo-doped samples. Photoluminescence decay measurements focus on the coexistence of the immediate (fast) decay having a decay time of a few nanoseconds with slower delayed recombination decay processes. The radioluminescence emission peaking at 500 nm in Ba-doped crystals is similar to that observed in Mo-doped samples. However, photoluminescence of the Ba-doped crystals shows much faster decay kinetics with respect to that of PbWO₄:Mo. Wavelength-resolved thermally stimulated luminescence data (10–300 K) provides complementary information about trapping states and is correlated to photoluminescence decay kinetics.     

Laser-Excited Volume Secondary Radiation in Wide-Gap Semiconductors and Dielectrics

Studies of the volume secondary radiation (photoluminescence and Raman scattering) in wide-gap semiconductors (GaP, ZnSe) and condensed dielectrics were carried out at various temperatures. The low-temperature variations of the dielectric constants were evaluated. The anti-Stokes photoluminescence from the sample bulk, resulting from interband and impurity recombination, was observed for the first time when exciting the spectra of secondary radiation by the continuous radiation of a low-power helium--neon laser with the lasing line in the transparency region of gallium phosphide. A similar effect was observed at low temperatures in zinc selenide excited by an argon laser. Photoluminescence from the sample bulk was also found for a number of condensed dielectrics (hydrocarbons and oil) at room temperature. The results obtained allow analysis of impurities in the bulk of semiconductors and dielectrics based on recording the volume photoluminescence spectra.

Rare Earth Photoluminescence in Bismuth-Germanate Crystals

In the present work, the photoluminescence (PL) spectra of bismuth germanate (BGO) doped with trivalent rare earth element (REE) ions with different doping concentrations (0.03 wt% Eu, 0.4 wt% Tm, and 1.1 wt% Nd) are reported in the temperature range from 10 to 300 K using different detectors, namely, photomultiplier tube (PMT), InGaAs (IGA), and Si. The luminescence in the NIR region was also measured at room temperature. Two broad emission bands attributed to undoped BGO were found at circa 1350 and 1800 nm, respectively. The broad-band emissions are replaced by narrow-band line emissions defined by the trivalent rare earth dopants. The emission spectra from rare earth ion–doped BGO extend from 500 to 2000 nm. Rare earth ions act as the dominant recombination centers and define the emission spectra. This is interpreted as resulting from direct charge transfer from intrinsic defect traps to rare earth recombination centers. The temperature-dependent luminescence of BGO doped with 0.4 wt% Tm is also presented.

p-type characteristics of ZnSe:Li3N grown by a closed Bridgman method

We intend to search a new method to prepare high-quality and large-size p-ZnSe single crystal. In this study, ZnSe:Li₃N single crystal is grown by a vertical Bridgman method using a closed double-crucible. The photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of the as-grown ZnSe:Li₃N crystal at 8 K shows very strong donor–acceptor pair (DAP) and very weak exciton emissions. In order to activate doped Li₃N, ZnSe:Li₃N single crystal is annealed at high temperature in Zn-saturated atmosphere. By selecting suitable annealing conditions, a very strong I₁ emission line related to shallow acceptor is observed. The capacitance–voltage (C–V) characteristics indicate that the annealed ZnSe:Li₃N single crystal is a p-type conduction. Furthermore, the acceptor concentration and ionization energy are estimated by examining the temperature dependences of the free-to-acceptor (FA) emission, the behaviors of Li and N are investigated, and the new emission at 2.34 eV is discussed.     

Radiated recombination in CdGa2Se4

The photoluminescence of single crystals of CdGa₂Se₄ is studied as a function of temperature, of the excitation intensity, and of the polarization of the exciting light. A possible level scheme for optical transitions in the perfect crystal is given and evidence is also found for donor-acceptor pair recombination luminescence.     

Pulsed laser stimulation and excitation in ZcS:Pb,Mn phosphor

Pulsed IR stimulation of UV irradiated room temperature ZnS:Pb,Mn phosphor powder was performed at 700 nm and 1.06 μm. Pulsed excitation of the phosphor at 355 nm was also studied. Transient spectra and spectrally resolved luminescence decay times are reported. The parametric dependence of the transient emission on UV excitation power and stimulation pulse energy is reported, as well as absolute stimulation efficiencies. The results are interpreted qualitatively using a model in which both intra-atomic transitions and self-activated donor-acceptor recombination occur simultaneously. Decay times range from 300 ns to 900 ns.     

Y掺杂Si纳米线的光致发光特性

以n型单晶Si(111)为衬底,利用Au作为催化剂,在温度、N₂流量和生长时间分别为1 100 ℃,1.5 L·min-1和60 min的条件下,基于固-液-固生长机制,生长了直径为60～80 nm、长度为数十微米的高密度Si纳米线。随后,以Y₂O₃粉末为掺杂源,采用高温扩散方法对Si纳米线进行了钇(Y)掺杂。利用扫描电子显微镜、X射线衍射仪和荧光分光光度计对不同掺杂温度(900～1 200 ℃)、掺杂时间(15～60 min)和N₂流量(0～400 sccm)等工艺条件下制备的Y掺杂Si纳米线的形貌、成分、结晶取向以及激发光谱和发射光谱特性进行了详细的测量和表征。结果表明,在掺杂温度为1 100 ℃,N₂流量为200 sccm、掺杂时间为30 min和激发波长为214 nm时,Y掺杂Si纳米线样品表现出较好的发光特性。样品分别在470～500和560～600 nm范围内出现了两条发光谱带。560～600 nm的发光带由两个发光峰组成,峰位分别为573.6和583.8 nm,通过结构分析可以推测,这两个发光峰是由Y3+在Si纳米线的带隙中引入的杂质能级引起的。而470～500 nm较宽的发光带同样来源于Y离子在Si纳米线带隙中引入的与非晶SiO_x壳层中氧空位能级十分接近的杂质能级。
