CuO/ZnO Heterojunction Nanoarrays for Enhanced Photoelectrochemical Water Oxidation
摘要: Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting offers a promising route for producing chemical energy from abundant solar energy, but a bottleneck remains for PEC practical applications because of the lack of efficient, stable and earth-abundant photoelectrodes. Here, we report simultaneous improvements in carrier separation and light harvesting by constructing p-n heterojunctions in CuO/ZnO nanorod arrays. The novelty of this work is developing a new strategy for preparing a CuO/ZnO p-n heterojunction photoanode for PEC water splitting, in which Cu(OH)2/ZnO is first prepared by a chemical solution strategy and then transformed into CuO/ZnO by annealing. The CuO/ZnO heterojunction photoanode exhibited a significant negative shift of 150 mV for the onset potential and an approximately 4-fold enhancement in the photocurrent at 1.23 V vs reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) compared with those of pristine ZnO NRs. This work offers a facile strategy for preparing oxide-based p-n heterojunction photoanodes for enhanced PEC water splitting.

Binding energy and optical absorption of donor impurity states in “12-6” tuned GaAs/GaAlAs double quantum well under the external fields
摘要: We have investigated the binding energies of the s-symmetric ground and first excited shallow donor impurity states and the total 1s → 2s absorption coefficient, including the first and third order corrections, in "12-6" tuned GaAs/GaAlAs double quantum well as a function of the impurity position, size of the structure, and the electric and magnetic field intensities. The obtained results show that the electronic and optical properties of tuned GaAs/GaAlAs double quantum well can be adjustable by an appropriate choice of the sample geometry, material parameters and applied external fields which will lead to new potential applications in optoelectronics.

Structural transformations and spectroscopic properties of Ni-doped magnesium aluminosilicate glass-ceramics nucleated by a mixture of TiO2 and ZrO2 for broadband near-IR light emission
摘要: Ni:MgAl2O4 spinel shows a reversible random Ni2t site redistribution with increasing temperature. With the aim of determining the influence of the structure evolution induced by heat-treatment on the nature of luminescence centers in NiO-doped spinel-based magnesium aluminosilicate glass-ceramics nucleated by a mixture of TiO2 and ZrO2, the detailed spectroscopic study of the initial glass during its heat-treatments at increasing and decreasing temperatures has been performed and accompanied by an XRD analysis and Raman spectroscopy. The initial glass was X-ray amorphous. Its optical spectrum is mainly formed by absorption of [5]Ni2t sites with a small amount of [4]Ni2t ones. Crystals of the nucleating catalyst, ZrTiO4, about 4 nm in size, appear during heat-treatment at 800 °C, while the absorption spectrum of Ni2t ions remains near unchanged. At 850 °C, spinel crystals with size of about 6 nm precipitate, which is accompanied by a broadband luminescence in the near-IR centered at 1330 nm with a bandwidth of 380 nm. At 950 °C, there is a slight reduction in intensity of absorption bands attributed to [6]Ni2t site redistribution with increasing temperature. A decrease in the amount of the [6]Ni2t luminescent centers is not accompanied by a decrease in the luminescence intensity because of the increased size of spinel crystals. Additional low-temperature heat-treatment does not lead to a redistribution between [6]Ni2t sites in spinel crystals in favor of [6]Ni2t ones. An increase of the luminescence intensity after low-temperature heat-treatment is associated with additional spinel crystallization.

Sensitive dual sensing system for oxygen and pressure based on deep ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy
摘要: In this study, a highly sensitive monitoring system for dual sensing of oxygen and pressure has been developed. The absorption of oxygen in the wavelength range of 186–196 nm was observed and the corresponding absorption cross-section of oxygen in this band was achieved. An approach based on differential optical absorption spectroscopy was used to describe the concentration of oxygen. The detection limit of oxygen was determined to be 150 ppm per meter. No relation between pressure and oxygen absorption line shape in the related wavelength band was confirmed. Based on the absorption of oxygen, pressure detection was realized and a detection limit of 180 Pa was obtained. A dual sensing system for oxygen and pressure was constructed.

Energy and exergy analyses of a solar powered multi-effect cooling cycle
摘要: This study aims to assess the thermodynamic performance of a novel solar powered multi-effect cooling cycle through the cascaded utilisation of energy and exergy. The effects of parameters such as: direct normal irradiation (DNI), turbine inlet temperature, turbine back pressure, and evaporator temperature of ERC were ascertained on the energetic and exergetic performance of the cycle. Exergy destruction occurs throughout the plant components is quantified and illustrated using an exergy flow diagram, and compared to the corresponding energy flow diagram. The exergy efficiency of the cycle was significantly less than its corresponding energy efficiency. Computational analysis further revealed that the maximum exergy losses of more than 34% occur in the solar field followed by 7.25% and 6.75% in the components of ARC and CRC, respectively. Percentage of these exergy losses indicates the sites where the efforts should be made to improve the real performance of proposed cooling cycle.

Bi-Exciton Dissociation Dynamics in Nano-Hybrid Au-CuInS <sub/>2</sub> Nanocrystals
摘要: Multiexciton harvesting from semiconductor quantum dot has been a new approach for improving the solar cell efficiency in Quantum Dot Sensitized Solar Cells (QDSC). Till date, relation between multiexciton dissociation in metal?semiconductor nanohybrid system and boosting the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of QDSC were never discussed. Herein we report a detailed spectroscopic investigation of biexciton dissociation dynamics in copper indium sulfide (CuInS2, also referred as CIS) and Au-CIS nanohybrid, utilizing both time-resolved PL and ultrafast transient absorption (TA) techniques. Ultrafast transient absorption suggests the formation of bi-exciton in CIS NCs which efficiently dissociates in Au-CIS nanohybrids. Maximum multiexciton dissociation (MED) efficiency is determined to be ~ 80% at higher laser fluency, however it was observed to be 100% at lower laser fluency. Prior to exciton dissociation electrons are captured by Au NP in the nanohybrid from the conduction band of CIS NCs which is energetically higher than Fermi level of Au. Here we demonstrate the proof-of-concept in multi-electron dissociation which may provide a new approach for improving the efficiency in QDSSCs, where we found power conversion efficiency (PCE) of Au-CIS nanohybrids up to 2.49% as compared to ~1.06% ~for pure CIS NCs in similar condition. This finding can be an efficient approach towards the design and development of efficient solar cell and optoelectronic devices using the principles of multiexciton generation and extracting multiexcitons in metal-semiconductor nanohybrid system.

Applications of Molecular Spectroscopy to Current Research in the Chemical and Biological Sciences || Geometric and Electronic Properties of Porphyrin and its Derivatives
摘要: In this chapter, we discuss protonation and substitution effects on the absorption spectra of porphyrin molecules based on density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT calculations. The results of the calculations are compared with experimental data. The calculations show that protonation of core nitrogen atoms of porphyrin and meso-substituted porphyrins produces a substantial shift in Soret and Q-absorption bands, relative to their positions in corresponding nonprotonated and nonsubstituted chromophores. A relaxed potential energy surface (RPES) scan has been utilized to calculate ground and excited state potential energy surface (PES) curves as functions of the rotation of one of the meso-substituted sulfonatophenyl groups about dihedral angles θ (corresponding to Cα─Cm─C?─C) ranging from 40 to 130°, using 10° increments. The ground state RPES curve indicates that when the molecule transitions from the lowest ground state to a local state, the calculated highest potential energy barrier at the dihedral angle of 90° is only 177 cm?1. This finding suggests that the meso-sulfonatophenyl substitution groups are able to rotate around Cm─C? bond at room temperature because the thermal energy (kBT) at 298 K is 207.2 cm?1. Furthermore, the calculations show that the geometric structure of the porphyrin is strongly dependent on protonation and the nature of the meso-substituted functional groups.

[Springer Series in Optical Sciences] Fano Resonances in Optics and Microwaves Volume 219 (Physics and Applications) || Study of Fano Resonance in the Core-Level Absorption Spectrum in Terms of Complex Spectral Analysis
摘要: We study theoretically the core absorption spectrum of an impurity embedded in a tight-binding chain in terms of complex spectral analysis. The absorption spectral pro?le associated with the resonance states in principle exhibits an asymmetric Fano-type structure, even without apparent multiple interference transition paths. The asymmetric Fano absorption pro?le is attributed to the complex-valued oscillator strength of the transition to the resonance state belonging to the extended Hilbert space. The boundary condition on the continuum causes a large energy dependence of the self-energy, so that it enhances the nonlinearity of the eigenvalue problem of the effective Hamiltonian, yielding several non-analytic resonance states. The optical transitions to these resonance states constitute the overall absorption spectrum structure.
