Loop quantum cosmology: Recent progress

Aspects of the full theory of loop quantum gravity can be studied in a simpler context by reducing to symmetric models like cosmological ones. This leads to several applications where loop effects play a significant role when one is sensitive to the quantum regime. As a consequence, the structure of and the approach to classical singularities are very different from general relativity. The quantum theory is free of singularities, and there are new phenomenological scenarios for the evolution of the very early universe such as inflation. We give an overview of the main effects, focussing on recent results obtained by different groups.     

Recent progress in subatomic particle detection technology

Particle detection technologies have been largely advanced in ,boratory over the past decade. A neutron sphere was built to detect the decay neutron emitted from the implanted unstable nu eleus, whereas a multi-neutron correlation spectrometer was implemented to detect the forward moving neutrons resulting from breakup reactions. Charged particle telescopes are now equipped with double sided Silicon strip detectors which have excellent energy and position resolutions. Large size gas chambers, such as resistive plate chambers, have been developed in order to achieve high Derformances related to timing or position measurements. The advances of these technologies con tribute substantially to such large science project, as LHC-CMS, and to the experiments with the radioactive nucleus beams.

Recent progress of colloidal quantum dot based solar cells

Colloidal quantum dot(CQD) solar cells have attracted great interest due to their low cost and superior photo-electric properties. Remarkable improvements in cell performances of both quantum dot sensitized solar cells(QDSCs) and PbX(X = S, Se) based CQD solar cells have been achieved in recent years, and the power conversion efficiencies(PCEs) exceeding 12% were reported so far. In this review, we will focus on the recent progress in CQD solar cells. We firstly summarize the advance of CQD sensitizer materials and the strategies for enhancing carrier collection efficiency in QDSCs, including developing multi-component alloyed CQDs and core-shell structured CQDs, as well as various methods to suppress interfacial carrier recombination. Then, we discuss the device architecture development of PbX CQD based solar cells and surface/interface passivation methods to increase light absorption and carrier extraction efficiencies. Finally, a short summary, challenge, and perspective are given.     

Recent progress in quantum chemistry of hetero[8]circulenes

ABSTRACT

This mini-review presents recent advances in theory of electronic and spectral properties of hetero[8]circulenes used as promising fluorescent emitters for organic light-emitting diodes. Special attention is paid to the possibility of their further functionalisation into one-dimensional and two-dimensional (2D) materials. Such materials are predicted to be useful ambipolar organic semiconductors showing high charge carrier mobility. The porous structure of hetero[8]circulene-based nano-arrays can also provide suitable hydrogen storage materials, biomimetic-type nanopores and ionic channels. They serve as a good example of the density functional theory application for design of stable 2D structures, which extends the family of graphene-like materials.

Recent progress of infrared photodetectors based on lead chalcogenide colloidal quantum dots

Commercial photodetectors based on silicon are extensively applied in numerous fields. Except for their high performance, their maximum absorption wavelength is not over than 1100 nm and incident light with longer wavelengths cannot be detected; in addition, their cost is high and their manufacturing process is complex. Therefore, it is meaningful and significant to extend absorption wavelength, to decrease cost, and to simplify the manufacturing process while maintaining high performance for photodetectors. Due to the properties of size-dependent bandgap tunability, low cost, facile processing,and substrate compatibility, solution–processed colloidal quantum dots(CQDs) have recently gained significant attention and become one of the most competitive and promising candidates for optoelectronic devices. Among these CQDs, lead chalcogenide CQDs are getting very prominent and are widely investigated. In this paper, the recent progress of infrared(IR) photodetectors based on lead sulfide(PbS), lead selenide(PbSe), and ternary PbS_x Se_(1-x) CQDs, and their underlying concepts, breakthroughs, and remaining challenges are reviewed, thus providing guidance for designing high-performance quantum-dot IR photodetectors.

Recent progresses of quantum confinement in graphene quantum dots

Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) not only have potential applications on spin qubit, but also serve as essential platforms to study the fundamental properties of Dirac fermions, such as Klein tunneling and Berry phase. By now, the study of quantum confinement in GQDs still attract much attention in condensed matter physics. In this article, we review the experimental progresses on quantum confinement in GQDs mainly by using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS). Here, the GQDs are divided into Klein GQDs, bound-state GQDs and edge-terminated GQDs according to their different confinement strength. Based on the realization of quasi-bound states in Klein GQDs, external perpendicular magnetic field is utilized as a manipulation approach to trigger and control the novel properties by tuning Berry phase and electron–electron (e–e) interaction. The tip-induced edge-free GQDs can serve as an intuitive mean to explore the broken symmetry states at nanoscale and single-electron accuracy, which are expected to be used in studying physical properties of different two-dimensional materials. Moreover, high-spin magnetic ground states are successfully introduced in edge-terminated GQDs by designing and synthesizing triangulene zigzag nanographenes.
