Role of Nanocavity Plasmons in Tunneling Electron Induced Light Emission on and near a Molecule

By using a microscopic quantum model, we study theoretically different roles of nanocavity plasmons in scanning tunneling microscope (STM) induced light emission upon selective initial excitation of molecules or plasmons. The time evolution and spectroscopic properties of the emission from the coupled plasmon-molecule system in each case are studied using time-dependent quantum mater equations. When the STM tip is placed on the molecule to ensure direct carrier injection induced molecular excitation, the major role of the plasmons is to enhance the molecular emission via increasing its radiative decay rate, resulting in sharp molecule-specific emission peaks. On the other hand, when the STM tip is located in close proximity to the edge of the molecule but without direct carrier injection into the molecule, the role of the plasmon-molecule coupling is to cause destructive interferences between the two quantum objects, leading to the occurrence of Fano dips around the energy of the molecular exciton in the plasmonic emission spectra.     

Bias-Polarity Dependent Electroluminescence from a Single Platinum Phthalocyanine Molecule

By using scanning tunneling microscope induced luminescence (STML) technique, we investigate systematically the bias-polarity dependent electroluminescence behavior of a single platinum phthalocyanine (PtPc) molecule and the electron excitation mechanisms behind. The molecule is found to emit light at both bias polarities but with different emission energies. At negative excitation bias, only the fluorescence at 637 nm is observed, which originates from the LUMO→HOMO transition of the neutral PtPc molecule and exhibits stepwise-like increase in emission intensities over three different excitation-voltage regions. Strong fluorescence in region (Ⅰ) is excited by the carrier injection mechanism with holes injected into the HOMO state first; moderate fluorescence in region (Ⅱ) is excited by the inelastic electron scattering mechanism; and weak fluorescence in region (Ⅲ) is associated with an up-conversion process and excited by a combined carrier injection and inelastic electron scattering mechanism involving a spin-triplet relay state. At positive excitation bias, more-than-one emission peaks are observed and the excitation and emission mechanisms become complicated. The sharp molecule-specific emission peak at ~911 nm is attributed to the anionic emission of PtPc\begin{document}$^-$\end{document} originated from the LUMO+1→LUMO transition, whose excitation is dominated by a carrier injection mechanism with electrons first injected into the LUMO+1 or higher-lying empty orbitals.
