聚苯胺/ZnO纳米线薄膜材料作为发光层的柔性光电器件 及其发光机理

综合氧化锌纳米线(ZnO NWs)的光学活性与聚苯胺(PANI)的空穴传输特性,设计并制备了一种聚合物/ZnO纳米线电致发光材料,并对其发光特性进行了研究。通过高分子络合软模板法,将有序的单晶ZnO NWs均匀生长在覆有铟锡氧化物(ITO)涂层的柔性聚乙烯对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯(PET)衬底上并嵌入PANI薄膜,获得了电致发光薄膜材料和有机/无机异质结实验器件ITO/(ZnO NWs-PANI)。有机/无机异质结器件电致发光可调,在相对低的开启电压下呈现室温蓝紫外发光,并且ZnO NWs表面覆盖PANI增加了蓝紫外发光的强度和稳定性;而无PANI的ZnO NWs阵列具有450 nm处的缺陷发射峰,这可能是电子从扩展态锌间隙Zn_i到价带的跃迁引起的。这些结果表明,基于PANI/ZnO纳米线的复合材料在柔性光电器件方面的应用极具潜力。

Fairly pure ultraviolet electroluminescence from p-Si-based SiOx/ZnO/SiOx double-barrier device

We report fairly pure ultraviolet (UV) electroluminescence (EL) from a novel p-Si-based SiO_x/ZnO/SiO_x (x < 2) double-barrier device. When the device is forward biased with positive voltage applied on the gate electrode of Au film, UV light originated from the near-band-edge emission of ZnO is dominant in the EL spectra, while the defect-related visible emissions are undetectable. In the case of reverse bias, no EL is detected from the device. The mechanisms of EL and carrier transports have been explained in terms of energy band structures under forward and reverse biases.     

Tunability of UV electroluminescence for n-ZnO:Al/n −-ZnO/i-MgO/n-GaN heterostructured light-emitting diodes

n-ZnO:Al/n ^?-ZnO/i-MgO/n-GaN heterostructured diodes have been fabricated by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The electroluminescence (EL) of the n-ZnO:Al/n ^?-ZnO/i-MgO/n-GaN diodes has been investigated. All EL spectra are dominated by ultraviolet (UV) emission peaked at around 368 nm. However, EL performances of the devices can be tuned through controlling the electrical parameters of ZnO:Al films. With the variation of the ZnO:Al films, EL spectra could evolve into random lasing action from conventional EL. The electrical parameters of the corresponding ZnO:Al films were researched, and the related UV emission mechanism is discussed in terms of the energy-band theory of the heterojunctions.     

Synthesis and photoluminescence study on ZnO nano-particles

A new technique, namely low pressure sputtering, has been developed to fabricate Zn nanoparticles, with a subsequent oxidation to synthesize ZnO nanoparticles in the ambient atmosphere at 500℃. The synthesized ZnO nanoparticle has a size of 6-8 nm with a preferred orientation of c-axis. The produced ZnO nanoparticles have a good UV photoluminescence （PL） emission energy of 3.349 eV with a significant enhancement of donor-acceptor pair emission located at 3.305 eV which implies a number of donor and acceptor bounded excitons existing in the synthesized ZnO nano particles. The near band edge PL emission of the fabricated ZnO is dominated by the bounded excitons at 10 K.     

Study of Au/ZnO nanorods Schottky light-emitting diodes grown by low-temperature aqueous chemical method

High quality vertically aligned ZnO nanorods (NRs) were grown by low-temperature aqueous chemical technique on 4H-n-SiC substrates. Schottky light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were fabricated. The current-voltage (I–V) characteristics of Schottky diodes reveal good rectifying behavior. Optical properties of the ZnO nanorods (NRs) were probed by cathodoluminescence (CL) measurements at room temperature complemented with electroluminescence (EL). The room-temperature CL spectra of the ZnO NRs exhibit near band edge (NBE) emission as well as strong deep level emission (DLE) centered at 690 nm. At room temperature the CL spectra intensity of the DLE was enhanced with the increase of the electron beam penetration depth due to the increase of defect concentration at the interface and due to the conversion of self-absorbed UV emission. We observed a variation in the DLE along the nanorod depth. This indicates a relatively lower structural quality near the interface between ZnO NRs and n-SiC substrate. The room-temperature CL spectra of SiC show very weak emission, which confirms that most of the DLE is originating from the ZnO NRs, and SiC has a minute contribution to the emission.     

Room temperature electroluminescence from ZnO/Si heterojunction devices grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition

Heterojunction light-emitting diodes with ZnO/Si structure were fabricated on both high-resistivity (p) and low-resistivity (p⁺) Si substrates by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition technology. Fairly good rectifications were observed from the current-voltage curves of both heterojunctions. Ultraviolet (UV) and blue-white electroluminescence (EL) from ZnO layer were observed only from ZnO/p⁺-Si heterojunction under forward bias at room temperature (RT), while strong infrared (IR) EL emissions from Si substrates were detected from both ZnO/p-Si and ZnO/p⁺-Si heterojunctions. The UV and IR EL mechanisms have been explained by energy band structures. The realization of RT EL in UV-visible and IR region on Si substrate has great applicable potential for Si-based optoelectronic integrated circuits.     

Preparation,characterization and electroluminescence studies of copper doped zinc sulfide nanocrystals

Copper doped zinc sulfide nanoparticles were prepared by chemical precipitation method. The size of the particles was varied by changing the concentration of capping agent. The XRD studies indicate that most of the samples are cubic in nature. The broadening of peaks tends to increase with increasing capping agent concentration showing decrease in particle size. The crystalline size computed using Scherrer formula is found to be in range of 3–10 nm. Absorption spectra show absorption edge in UV region. The edge was found to shift towards shorter wavelength as the capping agent concentration is increased. This indicates increased effective band gap and hence reduced particle size. The nanoparticle size has been estimated in the range 5–10 nm using effective mass approximation model. For electroluminescence (EL) study of ZnS:Cu nanocrystals, the EL cells were prepared by placing ZnS:Cu nanoparticles between SnO₂ coated conducting glass plate and aluminum foil. Alternating voltage of various frequencies was applied and EL brightness (B) at different voltages (V) was measured and reported in this paper.     

Low-voltage blue light emission from n-ZnO/p-GaN heterojunction formed by RF magnetron sputtering method

High quality n-ZnO/p-GaN heterojunction was fabricated by growing highly crystalline ZnO epitaxial films on commercial p-type GaN substrates via radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering. Low-voltage blue light emitting diode with a turn-on voltage of ∼2.5 V from the n-ZnO/p-GaN heterojunction was demonstrated. The diode gives a bright blue light emission located at ∼460 nm and a low threshold voltage of 2.7 V for emission. Based on the results of the photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) spectra, the origins of the EL emissions were studied in the light of energy band diagrams of ZnO–GaN heterojunction, and may attribute to the radiative recombination of the holes in p-GaN and the electrons injected from n-ZnO, which almost happened on the side of p-GaN layer. These results may have important implications for developing short wavelength optoelectronic devices.     

Giant enhancement of band edge emission in ZnO and SnO nanocomposites

ZnO/SnO nanocomposites have been designed to enhance the band edge emission and suppress the defect emission of ZnO nanorods simultaneously. It is found that the intensity ratio between the band edge and defect emission can be improved by up to 4 orders of magnitude. The underlying mechanism is interpreted in terms of surface modification as well as carrier transfer from SnO nanoparticles to ZnO nanorods. Our approach is very useful for creating highly efficient optoelectronic devices.     

Fabrication of Prussian blue nanocubes through reducing a single-source precursor with graphene oxide and their electrocatalytic activity for H2O2

Nanostructured ZnO has been synthesized by wet chemical route. Poly(vinylpyrrolidone) is used for stabilization and surface passivation of synthesized nanoparticles, thus tailoring the growth of ZnO at nanoscale. Structural characterization using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron micoroscopy and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy of the synthesized nanoparticles confirm the evolution of nanocrystalline ZnO prevailing in hexagonal wurtzite phase. UV–Vis and photoluminescence spectroscopy studies show blue shift phenomenon in the synthesized nanoparticle in contrast to the bulk ZnO furnishing evidence in support of quantum size effect. The nanocomposites of ZnO and poly [9,9-dioctylfluorenyl-2,7-diyl] are prepared and characterized to investigate its luminescent and spectral emission effects. The nanocomposites are then incorporated in light-emitting diodes, and influence of ZnO on the device performance has been explored via electroluminescence, current density evaluation, and corresponding CIE coordinates calculation.
