CO and H2 activation over g-ZnO layers and w-ZnO(0001)
摘要: Graphene-like ZnO (g-ZnO) nanostructures (NSs) and thin films were prepared on Au(111) and their reactivities towards CO and H2 were compared with that of wurtzite ZnO (w-ZnO) (0001) single crystal. The interaction and reaction between CO/H2 and the different types of ZnO surfaces were studied using near-ambient-pressure scanning tunneling microscopy (NAP-STM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The reactivity of the w-ZnO(0001) surface towards CO and H2 was found to be more prominent than those on the surfaces of g-ZnO/Au(111). CO oxidation took place primarily at the edge sites of w-ZnO(0001) and the interface between g-ZnO NSs and Au(111), while g-ZnO thin films on Au(111) appeared inert at below 600 K. Similarly, the w-ZnO(0001) surface could dissociate H2 at 300 K, accompanied by a substantial surface reconstruction, while g-ZnO on Au(111) appeared inert for H2 activation at 300 K. DFT calculations showed that the reactivities of ZnO surfaces towards CO could be related to the formation energy of oxygen vacancy (EOvf), which could be related to the charge transfer to lattice oxygen atoms or surface polarity.

Surface polarity engineering of ZnO layer for improved photoluminescence of CsPbBr3 quantum dot films
摘要: The surface polarity of nanocrystalline ZnO film, a typical electron transport material in optoelectronics, is chemically modified using self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of phenethyl trichlorosilane (PETS). The surface treatment is proved to generate a hydrophobic surface by removing the hydroxyl groups on the oxide layer, which reduces the emission quenching of the subsequent CsPbBr3 quantum dot film. In addition, the surface polarity was engineered with varying PETS concentration, thereby contribute to an increased photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) by up to 50%. Meanwhile, the thermal stability of photoluminescence was enhanced showing a wide-range temperature tolerance up to 140 ℃.
