High‐temperature ferroelectricity and strong magnetoelectric effects in a hybrid organic–inorganic perovskite framework 下载免费PDF全文
Ying Tian Alessandro Stroppa Yi‐Sheng Chai Paolo Barone Manuel Perez‐Mato Silvia Picozzi Young Sun 《固体物理学:研究快报》2015,9(1):62-67
A Cu‐based organic–inorganic perovskite framework exhibits high‐temperature ferroelectricity with strong magnetoelectric effects. Both electric field control of magnetization and magnetic field control of polarization are realized. Theoretical calculations suggest that a new mechanism of hybrid improper ferroelectricity arising from the Jahn–Teller distortions of magnetic metal ions and tilting of the organic cations are responsible for the peculiar multiferroic behaviors.

Remi Papon Kamal P. Sharma Rakesh D. Mahayavanshi Subash Sharma Riteshkumar Vishwakarma Mohamad Saufi Rosmi Toshio Kawahara Joseph Cline Golap Kalita Masaki Tanemura 《固体物理学:研究快报》2016,10(10):749-752
The CuNi binary alloy can be significant as a catalyst for nitrogen‐doped (N‐doped) graphene growth considering controllable solubility of both carbon and nitrogen atoms. Here, we report for the first time the possibility of synthesizing substitutional N‐doped bilayer graphene on the binary alloy catalyst. Raman spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy analysis confirm the growth of bilayer and few‐layer graphene domains. X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis shows the presence of around 5.8 at% of nitrogen. Our finding shows that large N‐doped bilayer graphene domains can be synthesized on the CuNi binary alloy.

The excitons in the orthorhombic phase of the perovskite CH3NH3PbI3 are studied using the effective mass approximation. The electron–hole interaction is screened by a distance‐dependent dielectric function, as described by the Haken potential or the Pollmann–Büttner potential. The energy spectrum and the eigenfunctions are calculated for both cases. The results show that the Pollmann–Büttner model, using the corresponding parameters obtained from ab initio calculations, provides better agreement with the experimental results.

An innovative hybrid QD sensitized photovoltaic carbon nanotubes microyarn has been developed using thermally‐stable and highly conductive carbon nanotubes yarns (CNYs). These CNYs are highly inter‐aligned, ultrastrong and flexible with excellent electrical conductivity, mechanical integrity and catalytic properties. The CNYs are coated with a QD‐incorporated TiO2 microfilm and intertwined with a second set of CNYs as a counter electrode (CE). The maximum photon to current conversion efficiency (ηAM1.5) achieved with prolonged‐time stability was 5.93%. These cells are capable of efficiently harvesting incident photons regardless of direction and generating photocurrents with high efficiency and operational stability.

The α‐PbO2‐type TiO2 is synthesized under high‐pressure and high‐temperature environment and it shows higher photocatalytic activity as compared to rutile and anatase under UV irradiation. The reduction in α‐PbO2‐type TiO2 induces visible‐light photocatalytic activity. These results indicate that α‐PbO2‐type TiO2 is an important candidate material for use in a photocatalytic matrix.

Exchange bias at low fields exhibited by the interface between epitaxial layers of ferromagnetic and charge‐ordered rare‐earth manganites 下载免费PDF全文
Epitaxial thin films of ferromagnetic La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) and charge‐ordered, antiferromagnetic Y0.5Ca0.5MnO3 (YCMO) were deposited on SrTiO3 (100) substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The heterostructure undergoes tetragonal distortion due to strong biaxial tensile strain imposed by the substrate. The LSMO–YCMO bilayers exhibit significant exchange bias (EB) across the interface even in a very small remnant magnetic field (~5 Oe) present in the superconductor magnet. The unidirectional exchange anisotropy at the interface can be switched by reversing the polarity of the remnant magnetic field.

We demonstrate high optical transmission in solar cell contacts based on nanowire arrays with subwavelength spacing. The photocurrent results obtained from fabricated devices are compared with numerical simulations. The proposed contact design leads to optical losses significantly smaller than the fraction of the top surface taken up by the metallic contact (<10% vs. 36%). The resulting sheet resistance of the contact is 46.7 Ω/square, comparing favourably with transparent conductive oxides.

An observation of negative refraction in the naturally obtained composition of graphene and barium ferrite is reported. The capacitance and inductance measurements revealed the electric and magnetic resonances accompanied with the negative values of permittivity and permeability in the overlapped frequency range. According to the “left‐handed” media approach such a material is characterized by negative refraction. The derived values of the real part of refractive index are negative at the frequencies above 500 MHz.

Perovskite‐like metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) are hybrid materials of high interest for their potential in information storage technology, as Pb‐free substitutes for the widely used lead zirconate titanate (PZT) family of multiferroics. We report here a new, microwave‐assisted method of synthesis for perovskite‐like MOFs, which exploits the advantages of rapid and volumetric heating by microwaves in order to achieve synthesis within minutes, compared to days required by previously reported methods. The preliminary results demonstrate a broad control over the size and morphology of the products, by minor changes in the reaction conditions. An investigation of the effects of size and morphology on the magnetic and dielectric properties is presented here.

Low leakage stoichiometric SrTiO3 dielectric for advanced metal–insulator–metal capacitors 下载免费PDF全文

Metal–insulator–metal capacitors (MIMCAP) with stoichiometric SrTiO3 dielectric were deposited stacking two strontium titanate (STO) layers, followed by intermixing the grain determining Sr‐rich STO seed layer, with the Ti‐rich STO top layer. The resulted stoichiometric SrTiO3 would have a structure with less defects as demonstrated by internal photoemission experiments. Consequently, the leakage current density is lower compared to Sr‐rich STO which allow further equivalent oxide thickness downscaling.

Spectral dependence of light extraction efficiency of high‐power III‐nitride light‐emitting diodes 下载免费PDF全文
Using the recently suggested method of processing the data on external quantum efficiency as a function of output optical power, we have estimated the dependence of light extraction efficiency of high‐power light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) on their emission wavelength varied between 425 nm and 540 nm. The extraction efficiency is found to increase with the wavelength from ~80% to ~85% in this spectral range and to correlate with the wavelength dependence of reflectivity of the large‐area p‐electrode being the essential unit of the LED chip design. The correlation found identifies the incomplete reflection of emitted light from the electrode as the major mechanism eventually controlling the spectral dependence of the efficiency of light extraction from the LEDs.

Numerical modeling of photovoltaic efficiency of n‐type GaN nanowires on p‐type Si heterojunction 下载免费PDF全文
In this Letter, we investigate the photovoltaic properties of heterojunction solar cells based on n‐GaN nanowire (NW)/ p‐Si substrate heterostructures by means of numerical modeling. Antireflection properties of the NW array on the top of Si substrate were studied theoretically to show an order of magnitude enhancement in antireflection properties in comparison to the pure Si surface (2.5% vs. 33.8%). In order to determine the optimal morphology and doping levels of the structure with maximum possible efficiency we simulated its properties. The carried out simulation showed that the maximum efficiency should be more than 20% under AM1.5D illumination. The proposed design opens new perspectives and opportunities in the field of heterojunction tandem solar cell researches.

Despite the great promise of printed flexible electronics from 2D crystals, and especially graphene, few scalable applications have been reported so far that can be termed roll‐to‐roll compatible. Here we combine screen printed graphene with photonic annealing to realize radio‐frequency identification devices with a reading range of up to 4 meters. Most notably our approach leads to fatigue resistant devices showing less than 1% deterioration of electrical properties after 1000 bending cycles. The bending fatigue resistance demonstrated on a variety of technologically relevant plastic and paper substrates renders the material highly suitable for various printable wearable devices, where repeatable dynamic bending stress is expected during usage. All applied printing and post‐processing methods are compatible with roll‐to‐roll manufacturing and temperature sensitive flexible substrates providing a platform for the scalable manufacturing of mechanically stable and environmentally friendly graphene printed electronics.

Transition absorption of a photon by an electron passing through a boundary between two media with different permittivities is described both classically and quantum mechanically. Transition absorption is shown to make a substantial contribution to photoelectron emission at a metal/semicon‐ductor interface in nanoplasmonic systems, and is put forth as a possible microscopic mechanism of the surface photoelectric effect in photodetectors and solar cells containing plasmonic nanoparticles.

We found that non‐magnetic defects in two‐dimensional topological insulators induce bound states of two kinds for each spin orientation: electron‐ and hole‐like states. Depending on the sign of the defect potential these states can be also of two kinds with different distribution of the electron density. The density has a maximum or minimum in the center. A surprising effect caused by the topological order is a singular dependence of the bound‐state energy on the defect potential.

We present a detailed temperature‐dependent (4–300 K) spectroscopic study of DyMnO3 single crystals with distorted perovskite structure. Energies of 36 crystal‐field levels of Dy3+ in paramagnetic DyMnO3 were determined. The Dy3+ ground Kramers doublet does not split at and splits below Tlock = 18 K. The splitting grows fast at temperatures near and reaches Δ0 ≈ 11 ± 2 cm–1 at 4 K. Using the experimental temperature dependence Δ0(T), we calculate the dysprosium magnetic moment mDy(T) and the dysprosium contribution into specific heat and magnetic susceptibility. Analysing all the experimental data, we conclude that the Dy–Mn interaction is of the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya type.

Phosphorus prefers three‐connected configurations due to its inequivalent sp3‐hybridization. In the past year, many quasi two‐dimensional three‐connected networks were proposed as possible phosphorene allotropes. In this Letter, a new quasi two‐dimensional three‐connected network is proposed as a new potential phosphorene allotrope (Hex‐star). Based on first‐principles method calculations, the structure, stability and electronic properties of Hex‐star were systematically investigated. Our results indicate that Hex‐star is dynamically stable and it is a semiconductor with quasi‐direct band gap of 1.81 eV based on HSE06 method. Perspective top view (left) and Magen–David‐like orthographic top view (right) of Hex‐star phosphorene.

Polymer light‐emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) are two‐terminal, solid state devices with a mixed ionic/electronic conductor as the active layer. Once activated by a DC voltage or current, a doping‐induced homojunction dictates the electrical and optical response of the LEC, making it highly unique and attractive among organic devices. However, the depletion width, a fundamental parameter of any semiconductor homojunction, has never been determined experimentally for a static LEC junction. In this study, we apply spatially resolved photocurrent and photoluminescence (PL) scanning to an extremely large planar LEC that had been turned on to emit strongly then subsequently frozen. These concerted scanning and imaging studies depict a p–i–n junction structure in which the peak built‐in electric field lies at the interface between the intrinsic region and the p‐doped region. The corresponding 18 μm depletion width is very small compared to the 700 μm interelectrode spacing.

Device applications involving topological insulators (TIs) will require the development of scalable methods for fabricating TI samples with sub‐micron dimensions, high quality surfaces, and controlled compositions. Here we use Bi‐, Se‐, and Te‐bearing metalorganic precursors to synthesize TIs in the form of nanowires. Single crystal nanowires can be grown with compositions ranging from Bi2Se3 to Bi2Te3, including the ternary compound Bi2Te2Se. These high quality nanostructured TI compounds are suitable platforms for on‐going searches for Majorana fermions (Mourik et al., Science 336 , 1003 (2012) and Cook et al., Rev. B 86 , 155431 (2012) [1, 2]).

Localized EM and photonic jets from non‐spherical and non‐symmetrical dielectric mesoscale objects: Brief review 下载免费PDF全文
The interest to mesoscale dielectric objects, whose effective dimensions are comparable with the incident radiation wavelength, is caused by their unique ability to modify the spatial structure of the incident wave in the specific manner and to produce a highly localized intensive optical flux (“photonic jet”) with the subwavelength spatial resolution. In the current paper we brief review the modern state‐of‐the‐art of main principles of the photonic jet formation by non‐spherical and non‐symmetrical dielectric mesoscale particles both in transmitting and reflection mode. A deeper understanding of the photonic jet is nevertheless needed to fully exploit the potential performance of nano‐ and micro‐ dielectric mesoscale objects as diffractive components at different wavebands.
