悬浮二维晶体材料反射光谱和光致发光光谱的周期性振荡现象

研究了在二氧化硅/硅衬底上制备的悬浮石墨烯以及二硫化钼的反射光谱以及悬浮二硫化钼的光致发光光谱.研究发现:悬浮多层石墨烯的反射光谱表现出明显的振荡现象,并且该振荡具有一定的周期性;振荡周期的大小不依赖于悬浮多层石墨烯的层数,而是随着衬底上沉孔深度(空气层厚度)的增加而减小.利用多重光学干涉模型可以解释这种振荡现象以及振荡周期随沉孔深度改变的变化趋势.该模型计算结果表明,只有当沉孔深度达到微米量级时这种振荡现象才会显著出现;并且可由振荡周期定量地确定出沉孔深度.对于悬浮的二硫化钼样品,其反射光谱和光致发光光谱也出现了类似的振荡现象.这表明这种振荡现象是在各种衬底上悬浮二维材料反射光谱和光致发光光谱的一种普遍性结果,也预示悬浮二维材料器件的电致发光光谱也会出现类似的振荡现象,对悬浮二维晶体材料的物理性质和器件性能研究具有一定的参考价值.     

偶极子位置及偏振对激发光子晶体H1微腔的影响

光子晶体微腔和量子点的集成是实现量子信息处理非常具有潜力的平台之一,利用微腔和量子点的耦合可以制备纠缠光子对,实现对量子态的操控.因为光子晶体微腔具有品质因子高、模场体积小等优点,可以极大地增强光与物质之间的相互作用,从而易于实现量子态在不同物理体系之间的转换.通过单量子点和光子晶体H1微腔的耦合可以产生纠缠光子对,因为H1微腔具有简并的、模式偏振正交的基态模式.通常微腔模式的激发随着量子点在微腔中的位置变化而改变,本文用时域有限差分方法研究了偶极子光源的位置及偏振对激发光子晶体H1微腔模式的影响.结果表明:通过改变偶极子光源位置可以选择性地激发H1微腔简并模式中的一个;具有某一偏振的偶极子光源只能激发相应偏振的微腔模式;模式激发强度的大小也是由偶极子光源在微腔中的位置决定的.鉴于目前量子点在微腔中的位置尚不能精确控制,所以微腔模式受激发光源位置的影响的研究具有重要意义.     

多层对称薄膜的光子晶体光波导设计

基于多层对称薄膜的反射镜作用,设计了一种工作波长位于1550nm附近的基于周期性多层膜的光子晶体光波导。由平板波导的相关理论分析了波长在1515~1587nm范围内电磁波在波导中的传输性质。研究表明TE模和TM模在波导都是基模传输,其功率约束因子(Γ)限制在0.99~1之间,说明波导近乎完全将光波限制在其中传输。在控光能力上这种结构要比普通的三层薄膜波导更具优势。利用周期性多层膜的光子带隙结构,可以构造具有超低损耗的全向带隙介质光波导。     

Surface disordering of classic and superionic crystals: A description in the framework of the stern model

The surface potential (φ_S) in ionic crystals: binary compounds of the type NaCl and superionic oxygen conductors of the type M _{1 ? c} ^IV Me _c ^III O_{2 ? c/2} are calculated with the aid of the Stern model. Effect of the energy of formation of defects, concentration of accessible sites (N _S), and concentration of admixtures on the temperature dependences of φ_S(T) is studied. Instances of high and low potentials are analyzed. It is demonstrated that the surface potential increases proportionally to the difference between the adsorption energies of individual defects, provided the absolute value of |ΔG _i| (ΔG _i < 0) and concentration N _S are sufficiently large. Values of isoelectric temperatures in NaCl crystals doped with admixtures of other valence are calculated. An attempt is undertaken to describe experimental data for silver halides with the aid of the model. Calculations of the surface potential in superionic oxygen conductors show that increasing concentration of surface vacancies is accompanied by segregation of the admixture cations in the surface layer.     

Liquid-crystalline rigid-core semiconductor oligothiophenes: influence of molecular structure on phase behaviour and thin-film properties

The design, synthesis and properties of liquid-crystalline semiconducting oligothiophenes containing dithienothiophene (DTT), benzothiadiazole (BTZ) and carbazole (CBZ) rigid cores are described. The effect of molecular structure (shape, size and substitution) on their thermal behaviour and electrical properties has been investigated. Polarised optical microscopy (POM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses have revealed highly ordered smectic mesophases for most of the newly synthesised compounds. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies performed at various temperatures have shown that the smectic order is retained in the crystalline state upon cooling across the transition temperature, affording cast films with a more favourable morphology for FET applications.
