By ultraviolet (UV)-assisted synthetic procedure, we have successfully prepared several UV curable organic/inorganic hybrid nanocomposites with excellent gas barrier capabilities, moderate hardness, and good adhesive strength. The experimental results reveal that the physical properties of nanocomposites depend on their chemical structures. Therefore, introduction of silicone and polyurethane (PU) into the Acrylics backbone dramatically raises the adhesive strength as well as refractive index and lowers the gas penetration. Furthermore, we have also applied lab-made nanocomposite g for the encapsulation of organic optoelectronic devices such as OLEDs, flexible OLEDs, and organic solar cells. With the package of lab-made nanocomposite g, the organic optoelectronic devices effectively resist the entry of moisture and oxygen in the air, extending the lifetimes. 相似文献
In the present investigation, we study catalytic activity of copper nanoparticles stabilized onto a nitro functionalized polystyrene resin (Cu NPs@ Nitro‐Resin). The size of stabilized copper nanoparticles was found between 3 and 9 nm. This work reports a cost‐effective and sustainable protocol for the synthesis of propargylamines. Herein, we have developed microwave‐assisted synthesis of propargylamine from 3 components coupling of aldehyde, alkynes, and amines (A3 coupling) in truly heterogeneous catalytic system. Reaction parameters, such as solvent, catalyst concentration reaction time, and recyclability, were investigated, and reaction conditions were optimized. The present method has advantages such as environmentally benign, ease to handle, short reaction time (≈25 min), excellent yields (98%), low E‐factor (0.15), and high atom economy (94%). 相似文献
In this Letter, we report on a new nanofabrication technology to yield highly arrayed nanoelectrodes for organic–inorganic solar cells that promise new levels of performance and efficiency. This technology efficiently controls the effective area of highly arrayed nanoelectrodes and allows for the maximum incorporation of organic materials within the voids. Particularly the 3D parameters such as thickness, spacing, and height of the nanostructures are controlled non‐lithographically by atomic layer deposition technology.
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.
Thin film of biopolymeric compound chitosan (CTS) has been surfaced on moderately doped n-InP substrate as an interfacial layer by means of spin coating for the electronic modification of Au/n-InP structure. Electrical characterization of Au/CTS/n-InP hybrid junction has been performed by I–V and C–V measurements at room temperature. An effective barrier height (BH) value of 0.678 eV and an ideality factor of n = 1.665 have been obtained for the hybrid junction. The CTS interfacial layer has been found to reduce the reverse bias leakage current of the junction by about three orders of magnitude and enhance the BH by about 0.213 eV. Furthermore, the BH value of the hybrid junction has been obtained as 0.693 eV by C–V measurement. Good performance of the device could be ascribed to the passivation effect of the CTS interfacial layer between Au and n-InP. The BH values of 0.678 and 0.693 eV for the hybrid junction have been significantly higher than that of the conventional Au/n-InP junction (~0.465 eV). The results indicated that biopolymeric thin interfacial CTS layer might lead to the modification of the potential barrier for metal/n-InP junctions. Moreover, band gap of the CTS layer has been determined as 4.60 eV via UV–vis spectroscopy. 相似文献
Red‐light photodetectors without filters are in urgent need for narrowband applications such as full‐color imaging and multi‐output visible light communication (VLC). However, their development is hindered by the lack of small‐band‐gap and narrowband response materials. Without wavelength filters, a new type of photodetector with a simple single‐layer architecture is developed, based on a stable small‐band‐gap squarylium dye and characterized by a detectivity peak at 680 nm and full width at half maximum of 80 nm. The device, which exhibits high stability in air and humid conditions, shows a significantly low dark current of ∼2 nA·cm−2 at −2 V and high specific detectivity of 3.2 × 1012 Jones. The response current ratio of the device to red, green, and blue lights with a luminous flux amplitude ratio of 3:6:1 (standard ratio for white light) is 100:12:1.1. These properties indicate that the squarylium dye red‐light photodetectors are promising for VLC and other narrowband optoelectronic applications.
We herein investigate theoretically both 2D and 3D Hybrid Organic/inorganic perovskite crystal structures based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations and symmetry analyses. Our findings reveal the universal features of the electronic band structure for the class of lead-halide hybrids (R-NH\(_{3})_{n}\hbox {PbX}_{m}\), where \((\mathrm{{n}}, \mathrm{{m}})=(2,4)\) and (1,3) respectively for 2D and 3D structures. Among those, the large spin-orbit coupling acting on the conduction band is shown to play a major role on the band gap of these materials. Moreover, this approach can easily be generalized to related layered and 3D hybrids, thus providing a clear-sighted inside in their electronic and optical properties. 相似文献
The lifetimes of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) have been successfully enhanced with the modulation of LiF thickness and the utilization of encapsulating adhesives, which have been successfully and quickly synthesized with UV irradiation. Experimental results demonstrate that LiF and lab-made encapsulating adhesives can block the invasion of moisture as well as oxygen in the atmosphere into the OLEDs so that the lifetimes of devices with their encapsulation are 18-folds longer than those without encapsulation. 相似文献

Because of long‐range order and high chemical purity, organic crystals have exhibit unique properties and attracted a lot of interest for application in solid‐state lasers. As optical gain materials, they exhibit high stimulated emission cross section and broad tunable wavelength emission as similar to their amorphous counterpart; moreover, high purity and high order give them superior properties such as low scattering trap densities, high thermal stability, as well as highly polarized emission. As electronic materials, they are potentially able to support high current densities, thus making it possible to realize current driven lasers. This paper mainly describes recent research progress in organic semiconductor laser crystals. The building molecules, crystal growth methods, as well as their stimulated emission characteristics related with crystal structures are introduced; in addition, the current state‐of‐the‐art in the field of crystal laser devices is reviewed. Furthermore, recent advances of crystal lasers at the nanoscale and single crystal light‐emitting transistors (LETs) are presented. Finally, an outlook and personal view is provided on the further developments of laser crystals and their applications. 相似文献
In this work, the optoelectronic performance of organic/inorganic heterojunction photodiode based on alpha-sexithiophene (α-6T/n-Si) is introduced. A thin film of α-6T was deposited on the n-type silicon substrate by a thermal evaporation technique. The topographical properties of the α-6T thin film grown on the n-Si substrate were investigated using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) technique. A network of nanocrystalline needles over the film surface was observed which give rise to an improvement in the electric charge transport. The optical properties of the prepared thin film were investigated using a spectrophotometric technique. The high absorption of α-6T in UV and visible region suggested the ability of this architecture for UV and visible light detection. The I-V characteristics of the fabricated photodiode were investigated in dark and under different illumination intensities and different wavelengths. The present architecture showed a good response to halogen lamb light, where the estimated values of rising and falling time at 160 mW/cm2 were about 400 ms and 450 ms, respectively. The results show the possibility of using Au/α-6T/n-Si/Al structure as a photodetector for a wide range of the solar spectrum (UV–Visible). 相似文献
ZnO nanocrystals were synthesized by hydrolysis in methanol. X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence spectra confirm that good crystallized ZnO nanoparticles were formed. Utilizing those ZnO nanoparticles and poly[2-methoxy-5-(3′,7′-dimethyloctyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene] (MDMO-PPV), light emitting devices with indium tin oxide (ITO)/poly(3,4-oxyethyleneoxy-thiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS)/ZnO:MDMO-PPV/Al and ITO/PEDOT:PSS/MDMO-PPV/Al structures were fabricated. Electroluminescence (EL) spectra reveal that EL yield of hybrid MDMO-PPV and ZnO nanocrystals devices increased greatly as compared with pristine MDMO-PPV devices. The current-voltage characteristics indicate that addition of ZnO nanocrystals can facilitate electrical injection and charge transport. The decreased energy barrier to electron injection is responsible for the increased efficiency of electron injection. 相似文献
The demonstration of high efficiency and color tunability has brought organic light‐emitting devices (OLEDs) into the lighting and display market. High efficiency is one of the key issues for their commercial applications, for which much effort has been devoted to developing novel materials and device structures. It is well known that around 80% of the generated photons are trapped in OLED structure, so that there is still the greatest scope for significant improvements in its efficiency. This has driven the research towards the integration of micro/nano patterns into device structures that benefit from their abilities in manipulating the generation and propagation of photons. Micro/nano patterns with random or periodic morphologies have demonstrated their effect on the outcoupling of the trapped photons within the device. Moreover, the emitting properties other than the light extraction could be manipulated by introducing the micro/nano patterns. This article reviews the recent progresses in improving the light extraction and manipulating the emission properties of the OLEDs through the introduction of the micro/nano patterns by various fabrication strategies. The light manipulation of the micro/nano patterns in organic photovoltaics is briefly discussed considering its similar working principle and fabrication strategies to that of the OLEDs.
