However, the weak coupling of plasmons and excitons in a nanometal/semiconductor system remains to be investigated via energy transfer. Herein, bandgap tunable perovskite films were synthesized to adjust the emission peaks,for further coupling with stable localized surface plasmons from gold nanoparticles. The degree of mismatch, using steadystate and transient photoluminescence(PL), was investigated systematically in two different cases of gold nanoparticles that were in direct contacting and insulated. The results demonstrated the process of tuning emission coupled to LSPR via wavelength-dependent photoluminescence intensity in the samples with an insulating spacer. In the direct contact case,the decreased radiative decay rate involves rapid plasmon resonance energy transfer to the perovskite semiconductor and non-radiative energy transfer to metal nanoparticles in the near-field range.展开更多

In experiments, semiconductor coreshell quantum dots are intentionally confined in a thin polymer film on which a three-dimensional colloidal photonic crystal is fabricated. The spontaneous emission rate of quantum dots is characterised by conventional and time-resolved photoluminescence （PL） measurements. The modification of the spontaneous emission rate, which is reflected in the change of spectral shape and PL lifetime, is clearly observed. While an obvious increase in the PL lifetime is found at most wavelengths in the band gap, a significant reduction in the PL lifetime by one order of magnitude is observed at the short-wavelength band edge. Numerical simulation reveals a periodic modulation of spontaneous emission rate with decreasing modulation strength when an emitter is moved away from the surface of the photonic crystal. It is supported by the fact that the modification of spontaneous emission rate is not pronounced for quantum dots distributed in a thick polymer film where both enhancement and suppression are present simultaneously. This finding provides a simple and effective way for improving the performance of light emitting devices.展开更多

The measurement results show that both the structures are of good structural quality due to their sharp bound excitonic emissions and absence of the deep level structural defect-related emissions. Furthermore, in contrast to the ZnTe bulk crystal, although excitonic emissions for the ZnTe epilayer are somewhat weak, perhaps due to As atoms diffusing from the Ga As substrate into the ZnTe epilayer and/or because of the strain-induced degradation of the crystalline quality of the ZnTe epilayer, neither the donor–acceptor pair（DAP） nor conduction band-acceptor（e–A） emissions are observed in the ZnTe epilayer. This indicates that by further optimizing the growth process it is possible to obtain a high-crystalline quality ZnTe heteroepitaxial layer that is comparable to the ZnTe bulk crystal.展开更多

Cd S nanowire array, which is(002)-orientation growth and approximately perpendicular to Cd foil substrate, has been fabricated by the solvothermal method. In the temperature-dependent photoluminescence, from short wavelength to long wavelength, four peaks can be ascribed to the emissions from the bandgap, the transition from the holes being bound to the donors or the electrons being bound to the acceptors, the transition from Cd interstitials to Cd vacancies, and the transition from S vacancies to the valence band,respectively. In the photoluminescence of 10 K, the emission originated from the bandgap appears in the form of multiple peaks. Two stronger peaks and five weaker peaks can be observed. The energy differences of the adjacent peaks are close to 38 me V, which is ascribed to the LO phonon energy of Cd S. For the multiple peaks of bandgap emission, from low energy to high energy, the first, second, and third peaks are contributed to the third-order, second-order, and first-order phonon replica of the free exciton A, respectively;the fourth peak is originated from the free exciton A;the fifth peak is contributed to the first-order phonon replica of the excitons bound to neutral donors;the sixth and seventh peaks are originated from the excitons bound to neutral donors and the light polarization parallel to the c axis of hexagonal Cd S, respectively.展开更多

However, the ZnSe nanomaterials grown by the usual Au-catalyzed chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method are prone to cause defects in the material, and its luminescence spectra generally have strong yellow light emission, which seriously affects its application in blue light devices. The paper proposes a simple method for preparing blue light-emitting ZnSe nanowires. Adding a small amount of SnO<sub>2</sub> to the source material ZnSe powder, when using the CVD method to grow ZnSe nanomaterials, can obtain ZnSe nanomaterials with only band edge blue emission. SnO<sub>2</sub> can not only act as a catalyst, promote the growth of ZnSe nanowires and nanoribbons, reduce the growth temperature of nanomaterials, but also avoid the occurrence of deep level defects in ZnSe nanomaterials, and obtain pure blue light emitting ZnSe nanowires. The emission peak of the nanowire grown by this method can be shifted from 460 to 500 nm. By precisely regulating the growth of the nanowire, it can make it emit light to cover the entire blue region, which can promote the application of inorganic semiconductor nanomaterials in the field of lighting and display.展开更多

However, most of them are only highly sensitive to few analytes limited by the single luminescent centers in MOFs. To improve the application scopes, dual-emission MOFs were therefore emerged, which can significantly improve the sensitivity by monitoring the relative emission intensity of two luminescent centers. This short review will highlight the recent progress on dual-emission MOFs as highly sensitive sensors for probing of volatile organic molecules（VOMs）, picric acid and peroxynitrite, and as self-calibration PL thermometer.展开更多

文摘Incorporation of luminescent moieties into metal-organic frameworks（MOFs） has resulted in numerous photoluminescence（PL） sensors based on chromophore-analyte interactions. However, most of them are only highly sensitive to few analytes limited by the single luminescent centers in MOFs. To improve the application scopes, dual-emission MOFs were therefore emerged, which can significantly improve the sensitivity by monitoring the relative emission intensity of two luminescent centers. This short review will highlight the recent progress on dual-emission MOFs as highly sensitive sensors for probing of volatile organic molecules（VOMs）, picric acid and peroxynitrite, and as self-calibration PL thermometer.

文摘The development of deep-red emitting lead-free metal-halide perovskites with high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) and outstanding stability remains a major challenge for displays and deep-tissue bioimaging.In this work,we report a facile and convenient solvothermal method to synthesize metal halides Cs_(2)Zn X_(4)(X=Cl,Br) that however is PL innert at room temperature.Upon composition engineering utilizing Sn^(2+) as the dopant,the resulting Cs_(2)Zn Cl_(4):Sn not only emits strong deep-red PL peaked at700 nm with the highest 99.4%PLQY among the similar materials so far,but also exhibits excellent structure stability in air (PLQY remains 96%after one year exposure to the atmosphere).Detailed experimental characterizations and theoretical calculations reveal that the deep-red emission stems from self-trapped excitons induced by the Sn^(2+) dopant.Particularly,triplet emission (^(3)P_(2)→^(1)S_(0)) from Sn-5s^(2) orbitals has been observed at low temperature due to the break of parity-forbidden transition.This work provides an important guidance for the development of deep-red light-emitting materials with low price,high efficiency and excellent stability.
