Temperature－Dependent Photoluminescence of ZnTe Films Grown on Si Substrates

ZnTe films have been prepared on Si substrates by metal-organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD), and the temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) properties were investigated. The near-band-edge (NBE) emission of the ZnTe sample at 83K shows an asymmetry line shape, which can be decomposed into two Gaus-siam lines labelled by FE and BE. Temperature-dependent PL intensity of the NBE peak shows two variation regions, and an expression with two dissociation channels fits well to the experimental data. The results of the temperature-dependent full width at half maximum (FWHM) and peak energy were well understood under the framework of the two-dissociation-channel model. That is, at low temperature, the emission from bound excitons governs the NBE peak, while above 157K, the free exciton emission becomes dominant gradually. A simple model with three energy levels was employed to describe the variation in emission intensity of BE and FE with temperature.

低温外延生长平整ZnO薄膜

在较低温度下实现平整ZnO薄膜的生长有利于ZnO的可控p型掺杂以及获得陡峭异质界面。本文使用分子束外延方法,采用a面蓝宝石为衬底,在450 ℃下生长了一系列ZnO薄膜样品。在富氧生长的条件下,固定氧流量不变,通过调节锌源温度来改变锌束流,以此调控生长速率。样品的生长速率为40~100 nm/h。通过扫描电镜（SEM）表征发现：在高锌束流的生长条件下,样品表面有很多不规则的颗粒;降低锌的供应量后,样品表面逐渐平整。原子力显微镜（AFM）测试结果表明：样品的均方根表面粗糙度（RMS）只有0.238 nm,接近于原子级平整度。这种平整表面的获得得益于较低的生长速率,以及ZnO外延薄膜与a面蓝宝石衬底之间小的晶格失配。

Silica encapsulated ZnO quantum dot-phosphor nanocomposites:Sol-gel preparation and white light-emitting device application

ZnO quantum dots(QDs) as an eco-friendly and low-cost material has bright fluorescence, which makes it promising material for healthy lighting and displaying. However, the low fluorescence efficiency and poor stability of ZnO QDs impede their applications in lighting application. In this work, silica encapsulated ZnO QD-phosphors nanocomposites(ZSPN) have been prepared through a sol-gel synthesis process, where yellow-emitting ZnO QDs and blue-emitting BaMgAl_(10) O_(17):Eu~(2+) are employed as the luminescence cores and silica as link between two luminescence materials. Tunable photoluminescence of ZSPN and the white light emission have been achieved through changing mass ratio of both of ZnO QDs and commercial phosphors. The PLQY of the ZSPN can reach 63.7% and they can maintain high luminous intensity even the ambient temperature up to 110?C and after 35 h of UV irradiation. In addition, they can keep stable for 40 days. By coating the ZSPN phosphors onto a ultraviolet chip, WLEDs with luminous efficiency of 73.6 lm/W and the color coordinate, correlated color temperature, and color rendering index can reach(0.32, 0.34), 5580 K, and 87, respectively,indicating the bright prospect of the ZSPN phosphors used in healthy lighting.     

不同密度银纳米粒子对氧化锌基发光二极管发光的增强

采用分子束外延法制备不同密度的银纳米粒子(AgNPs)修饰的局域表面等离子体共振增强n-ZnO/iZnO/MgO/p-GaN异质结发光二极管(LEDs),并对其电学及光学性质进行表征。结果显示:LEDs中引入适当浓度的AgNPs有利于AgNPs局域表面等离子体激元与ZnO激子相耦合,可以显著提高器件的电致发光性能;随着AgNPs浓度的增加,LEDs发光增强倍数先增大后减小,分析认为这是AgNPs局域表面等离子体共振耦合增强过程和AgNPs的消光过程两者之间相互博弈而导致的结果。
