Er3+单掺、Er3+/Yb3+共掺杂Ca12Al14O32F2的 制备及上转换发光性质

利用高温固相法成功制备了Er~(3+)单掺、Er~(3+)/Yb~(3+)共掺杂Ca_(12)Al_(14)O_(32)F_2上转换发光样品。在980 nm激光激发下,Er~(3+)单掺和Er~(3+)/Yb~(3+)共掺杂样品均呈现出较强的绿光(528,549 nm)和较弱的红光(655 nm)发射,分别归因于Er~(3+)离子的~2H_(11/2),~4S_(3/2)→~4I_(15/2)和~4F_(9/2)→~4I_(15/2)能级跃迁。随着Er离子浓度的增加,单掺杂样品上转换发光强度先增大后减小,最佳掺杂浓度为0.8%。共掺杂Yb~(3+)后,Er~(3+)的发光强度明显增大。还原气氛下合成的样品上转换发光强度增大约两倍,可能和笼中阴离子基团变化有关。发光强度和激发光功率的关系表明所得上转换发射为双光子吸收过程,借助Er~(3+)-Yb~(3+)体系能级结构详细讨论了上转换发射的跃迁机制。     

Structural characterization of disperse black 9 based Cu (II) complex and investigation of its some properties

We obtained the azo‐imine ligand (2,2′‐[4‐(5‐methoxy salicylidene‐4‐iminophenylazo)phenylimino]diethanol) (HL) and its Cu (II) complex (CuL) from the ethanol solution. The complex Cu(L)₂ was obtained as single crystals from the CH₃OH solution and structurally characterized. The electronic and photoluminescence properties of the ligand and its Cu (II) complex were investigated both in DMF solution and solid state. The oxidation and reduction behaviours of the compounds were studied in the solution and found that the redox processes are irreversible. Thermal studies show that the ligand has higher thermal stability than the CuL complex. Single crystals of the complex were obtained from slow evaporation of a DMF solution of the complex. Crystals of the complex showed a diffraction pattern; however, the structure of the complex was able to be solved.     

Mildred Dresselhaus and Solid State Pedagogy at MIT

Mildred Dresselhaus is known for her influential research on the physics of carbon. Her wide‐ranging influence as a physics teacher, although well‐known to her students, has been less thoroughly examined. Exploring how Dresselhaus grew into her role teaching solid state physics at MIT reveals much about how that subfield evolved.     

Geometrical methods for analyzing the optimal management of tipping point dynamics

Natural resources are not infinitely resilient and should not be modeled as being such. Finitely resilient resources feature tipping points and history dependence. This paper provides a didactical discussion of mathematical methods that are needed to understand the optimal management of such resources: viscosity solutions of Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equations, the costate equation and the associated canonical equations, exact root counting, and geometrical methods to analyze the geometry of the invariant manifolds of the canonical equations. Recommendations for Resource Managers

• Management of natural resources has to take into account the possible breakdown of resilience and induced regime shifts.
• Depending on the characteristics of the resource and on its present and future economic importance, either for all initial states the same kind of management policy is optimal, or the type of the optimal management policy depends on the initial state.
• Modeling should reflect the finiteness of the data.

Ultrafast Excited State Dynamics of Biliverdin Dimethyl Ester Coordinate with Zinc Ions

As one of the biological endogenous pigments, biliverdin (BV) and its dimethyl ester (BVE) have extremely weak fluorescence in solution with quantum yield less than 0.01%. However, the situation reverses with the addition of zinc ions. The strength for fluorescence of BVE-Zn\begin{document}$ ^{2+} $\end{document} complex is greatly enhanced and fluorescence quantum yield can increase to \begin{document}$ \sim $\end{document}5%. Herein, we studied ultrafast excited state dynamics of BVE-Zn\begin{document}$ ^{2+} $\end{document} complex in ethanol, \begin{document}$ n $\end{document}-propanol, and DMSO solutions in order to reveal the mechanism of fluorescence quantum yield enhancement. The results show that BVE can form a stable coordination complex with zinc with 1:1 stoichiometry in solution. BVE is structurally and energetically more stable in the complex. Using picosecond time-resolve fluorescence and femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy, we show that smaller non-radiative rate constant of BVE-Zn\begin{document}$ ^{2+} $\end{document} complex in DMSO is the key to increasing its fluorescence quantum yield and the excited state decay mechanism is also revealed. These results provide valuable information about the fluorescence property change after BVE binding to metal ions and may provide a guidance for the study of phytochromes or other fluorescence proteins in which BV/BVE acts as chromophores.     

MoS2/SnS异质结太阳能电池的模拟研究

硫化亚锡(SnS)是一种Ⅳ-Ⅵ族层状化合物半导体材料,其禁带宽度与太阳能电池最佳带隙1.5 eV非常接近,并且在可见光范围内光的吸收系数很大(α>10⁴ cm^-1),因此SnS是一种很有应用前景的材料。本文利用太阳能电池模拟软件wxAMPS模拟了MoS₂/SnS异质结太阳能电池,主要研究SnS吸收层的厚度、掺杂浓度和缺陷态等因素对太阳能电池性能的影响。研究发现:SnS吸收层最佳厚度为2 μm,最佳掺杂浓度为1.0×10¹⁵ cm^-3;同时高斯缺陷态浓度超过1.0×10¹⁵ cm^-3时,电池各项性能参数随着浓度的增加而减小,而带尾缺陷态超过1.0×10¹⁹ cm^-3·eV^-1时,电池性能才开始下降;其中界面缺陷态对太阳能电池影响比较严重,界面缺陷态浓度超过1.0×10¹² cm^-2时,开路电压、短路电流、填充因子和转换效率迅速下降。另外,通过模拟获得的转换效率高达24.87%,开路电压为0.88 V,短路电流为33.4 mA/cm²。由此可知,MoS₂/SnS异质结太阳能电池是一种很有发展潜力的光伏器件结构。     

单层2H-MoTe2光电效应的理论研究

材料的禁带宽度是影响光电探测器探测范围的重要因素。单层2H-MoTe₂因具有合适的禁带宽度引起了科研人员广泛的研究兴趣。本文基于非平衡态格林函数-密度泛函理论,采用第一性原理方法,研究了单层2H-MoTe₂的光电效应。结果表明:在线性偏振光照射下,MoTe₂产生的光电流函数与唯象理论相吻合;在光子能量范围1.6~1.8 eV (690~770 nm),对应于红光,能产生较大的光电流。利用能带结构和态密度分析了产生较大光电流的原因主要来自第一布里渊区S点的电子受激跃迁。同时发现在锯齿型方向偏压为0.8 V时,光电流达到峰值;然而在扶手椅型方向偏压为0.4 V时,光电流就达到峰值。这些计算结果可用于指导基于MoTe₂光电探测器的设计,尤其是红外光电探测器的设计。
