Aluminum-Doped Zinc Oxide as Front Electrode for Rear Emitter Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells with High Efficiency
摘要: Transparent conductive oxide (TCO) layers of aluminum-doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Al) were investigated as a potential replacement of indium tin oxide (ITO) for the front contact in silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells in the rear emitter configuration. It was found that ZnO:Al can be tuned to yield cell performance almost at the same level as ITO with a power conversion efficiency of 22.6% and 22.8%, respectively. The main reason for the slight underperformance of ZnO:Al compared to ITO was found to be a higher contact resistivity between this material and the silver grid on the front side. An entirely indium-free SHJ solar cell, replacing the ITO on the rear side by ZnO:Al as well, reached a power conversion efficiency of 22.5%.

Metamaterial emitter for thermophotovoltaics stable up to 1400?°C
摘要: High temperature stable selective emitters can significantly increase efficiency and radiative power in thermophotovoltaic (TPV) systems. However, optical properties of structured emitters reported so far degrade at temperatures approaching 1200 °C due to various degradation mechanisms. We have realized a 1D structured emitter based on a sputtered W-HfO2 layered metamaterial and demonstrated desired band edge spectral properties at 1400 °C. To the best of our knowledge the temperature of 1400 °C is the highest reported for a structured emitter, so far. The spatial confinement and absence of edges stabilizes the W-HfO2 multilayer system to temperatures unprecedented for other nanoscaled W-structures. Only when this confinement is broken W starts to show the well-known self-diffusion behavior transforming to spherical shaped W-islands. We further show that the oxidation of W by atmospheric oxygen could be prevented by reducing the vacuum pressure below 10?5 mbar. When oxidation is mitigated we observe that the 20 nm spatially confined W films survive temperatures up to 1400 °C. The demonstrated thermal stability is limited by grain growth in HfO2, which leads to a rupture of the W-layers, thus, to a degradation of the multilayer system at 1450 °C.

Controlling the emission and absorption spectrum of a quantum emitter in a dynamic environment
摘要: We study the emission spectrum and absorption spectrum of a quantum emitter when it is driven by various pulse sequences. We consider the Uhrig sequence of nonequidistant πx pulses, the periodic sequence of πxπy pulses and the periodic sequence of πz pulses (phase kicks). We find that, similar to the periodic sequence of πx pulses, the Uhrig sequence of πx pulses has emission and absorption that are, with small variations, analogous to those of the resonance fluorescence spectrum. In addition, while the periodic sequence of πz pulses produces a spectrum that is dependent on the detuning between the emitter and the pulse carrier frequency, the Uhrig sequence of nonequidistant πx pulses and the periodic sequence of πxπy pulses have spectra with little dependence on the detuning as long as it stays moderate along with the number of pulses. This implies that they can also, similar to the previously studied periodic sequence of πx pulses, be used to tune the emission or absorption of quantum emitters to specific frequencies, to mitigate inhomogeneous broadening and to enhance the production of indistinguishable photons from emitters in the solid state.

The effect of oxygen plasma treatment on the field emission properties of lanthanum hexaboride tip emitter
摘要: Polycrystal lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6) tip field emitter has been prepared using the electrochemical etching technique. The effects of oxygen plasma treatment on its morphology, structure and field emission properties are mainly discussed. The results reveal that the surface morphology of emitters did not change significantly after oxygen plasma treatment. The oxygen plasma treatment does not introduce any new phase into LaB6 emitter, but eliminates surface contaminants, which lead to lower work function. The cathode treated by 2 min shows the best emission performance during the field emission measurement. It obtains 8.2 μA at 2000 V, especially exhibiting strong ability of anti oxygen ion bombardment.

Quantum Calligraphy: Writing Single-Photon Emitters in a Two-Dimensional Materials Platform
摘要: We present a paradigm for encoding strain into two dimensional materials (2DM) to create and deterministically place single photon emitters (SPEs) in arbitrary locations with nanometer-scale precision. Our material platform consists of a 2DM placed on top of a deformable polymer film. Upon application of sufficient mechanical stress using an atomic force microscope tip, the 2DM/polymer composite deforms, resulting in formation of highly localized strain fields with excellent control and repeatability. We show that SPEs are created and localized at these nanoindents, and exhibit single photon emission up to 60K, the highest temperature reported in these materials. This quantum calligraphy allows deterministic placement and real time design of arbitrary patterns of SPEs for facile coupling with photonic waveguides, cavities and plasmonic structures. In addition to enabling versatile placement of SPEs, these results present a general methodology for imparting strain into 2DM with nanometer-scale precision, providing an invaluable tool for further investigations and future applications of strain engineering of 2DM and 2DM devices.

The Design of Fused Amine/Carbonyl System for Efficient Thermally Activated Delayed Fluorescence: Novel Multiple Resonance Core and Electron Acceptor
摘要: Multiple resonances induced thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) has great advantages in high color purity display. Up to now, current MR-TADF emitters are only based on the boron-nitrogen-containing fragment. Reported herein is a novel class of MR-TADF emitter, quinolino[3,2,1-de]acridine-5,9-dione (QAO), realized by the opposite resonance effect of the carbonyl and the nitrogen atoms, which is also the smallest TADF emitter reported so far. The QAO-based pure blue organic light-emitting diode achieves a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQEmax) of 19.4% with a small full width at half maximum of 39 nm. Moreover, tert-butyl modified QAO can be employed as an efficient electron acceptor to construct an efficient yellow-green evaporation and solution process feasible TADF emitter, 7-(tert-butyl)-3,11-bis(9,9-dimethylacridin-10(9H)-yl)quinolino[3,2,1-de]acridine-5,9-dione (QAO-DAd), with significantly improved performance as compared to the previous flexible diketone-based emitters.

[IEEE 2018 31st International Vacuum Nanoelectronics Conference (IVNC) - Kyoto, Japan (2018.7.9-2018.7.13)] 2018 31st International Vacuum Nanoelectronics Conference (IVNC) - Field Emission Performance of Boron Nitride Nanotube Emitters According to Vacuum Pressure
摘要: Field emission performance of boron nitride nanotube filtration-transfer fabricated by simple method, were evaluated according to vacuum pressure to estimate its potential use for robust electron sources. Even though there is little change in the current density-electric field characteristics, the stability test for a relatively long time shows somewhat large degradation at a vacuum pressure of over 10-6 Torr. To investigate a key factor of the degradation, we changed the vacuum ambient from air to argon. Under argon ambient condition, the current degradation and fluctuation rates were almost the same as those measured under air ambient at a vacuum pressure of 10-5 Torr. Consequently, ion bombardment dominantly induced the current degradation of the BNNT field emitters rather than oxidation effect.

摘要: The high performance cold cathode x-ray source was fabricated by using the point-typed CNT field emitter. The cold cathode x-ray source consists of the CNT point emitter, the metal mesh gate electrode, the metal hole focusing lens and the tungsten target anode electrode. To fabricate x-ray source, such components were mounted in a SUS vacuum chamber. The fabricated CNT x-ray source showed a good resolution of x-ray images at a low anode current and at a low anode voltage, and also indicated stable operation. We evaluated x-ray images according to the tube voltage and the tube current, respectively.

摘要: Phosphorus-doped NCD films were grown on n-type silicon substrate by plasma-enhanced CVD with H2, CH4, and PH3 gas mixture for cold cathode application. The structure properties were characterized by Raman spectroscopy with a green laser of 532 nm at room temperature, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, and electron energy-less spectroscopy. Grown films show a good conductivity and have a typical structure with a combination of sp3 diamond gains with size around 20-100 nm and sp2 grain boundaries. The electron emission properties were characterized as comparing with single crystal, NCD film, and tip-array NCD. The tip-array NCD shows good emission properties with lower threshold electric filed and higher saturation current.
