Suppressing the Photocatalytic Activity of Zinc Oxide Electron-Transport Layer in Nonfullerene Organic Solar Cells with a Pyrene-Bodipy Interlayer
摘要： Organic solar cells based on nonfullerene acceptors have recently witnessed a significant rise in their power conversion efficiency values. However, they still suffer from severe instability issues, especially in an inverted device architecture based on the zinc oxide bottom electron transport layers. In this work, we insert a pyrene-bodipy donor?acceptor dye as a thin interlayer at the photoactive layer/zinc oxide interface to suppress the degradation reaction of the nonfullerene acceptor caused by the photocatalytic activity of zinc oxide. In particular, the pyrene-bodipy-based interlayer inhibits the direct contact between the nonfullerene acceptor and zinc oxide hence preventing the decomposition of the former by zinc oxide under illumination with UV light. As a result, the device photostability was significantly improved. The π?π interaction between the nonfullerene acceptor and the bodipy part of the interlayer facilitates charge transfer from the nonfullerene acceptor toward pyrene, which is followed by intramolecular charge transfer to bodipy part and then to zinc oxide. The bodipy-pyrene modified zinc oxide also increased the degree of crystallization of the photoactive blend and the face-on stacking of the polymer donor molecules within the blend hence contributing to both enhanced charge transport and increased absorption of the incident light. Furthermore, it decreased the surface work function as well as surface energy of the zinc oxide film all impacting in improved power conversion efficiency values of the fabricated cells with champion devices reaching values up to 9.86 and 11.80% for the fullerene and nonfullerene-based devices, respectively.

Highly Stable Red Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diodes with Long T <sub/>95</sub> Operation Lifetime
摘要： Quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) with excellent performances such as external quantum efficiency (EQE) and lifetime have almost met the requirement of low brightness display. However, the short operation lifetime under high brightness limits the application of QLEDs in outdoor displays and lightings. Herein, we report a highly efficient, stable red QLED by using of lithium and magnesium co-doped as well as magnesium oxide shell-coated zinc oxide nanoparticle layer as electron transport layer (ETL). The optimized QLED has a high peak EQE of 20.6%, a low efficiency roll-off at high current, and a remarkably long lifetime T95 > 11000 h at 1000 cd m-2, which indicates the realization of the most stable red QLED up to now. The improvement in the long-term stability of the QLED is attributed to the use of co-doped and shell-coated zinc oxide ETL with reduced electron injection to improve the charge balance in device.

Adsorption and Cation Exchange Behavior of Zinc Sulfide (ZnS) on Mesoporous TiO2 Film and Its Applications to Solar Cells
摘要： Zinc sulfide (ZnS) was deposited onto the surface of mesoporous TiO2 film by a typical successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) process. By inducing a spontaneous cation exchange between ZnS and a target cation (Pb2+, Cu2+, Ag+, or Bi3+) dissolved in chemical bath when they are in contact, it was demonstrated successfully that white translucent ZnS on the substrate could be changed to brown-colored new metal chalcogenides and the amount of ZnS deposited originally by different conditions could be compared in a qualitative way with the degree of the color change. By utilizing this simple but effective process, the evolution of well-known ZnS passivation layer prepared from different chemical baths in quantum dot (QD)-sensitized solar cells could be tracked visually via checking the degree of color change of TiO2/ZnS electrodes after the induced specific cation exchange. When applied to representative CdS QD-sensitized solar cells, it was revealed clearly how the different degree and rate of ZnS deposition could affect the overall power conversion efficiency while finding an optimized passivation layer over TiO2/CdS electrode. Acetate anion-coupled Zn2+ source was observed to give a much faster deposition of ZnS passivation layer than nitrate anion one due to its higher pH-induced more favorable adsorption of Zn2+ on the surface of TiO2. As another useful application of the ZnS-based cation exchange, as-deposited ZnS was used as a template for preparing a more complex metal chalcogenide onto mesoporous TiO2 film. The ZnS-derived Sb2S3-sensitized electrode showed a promising initial result of over 1.0 % overall power conversion efficiency with a very thin ZrO2 passivation layer between TiO2 and Sb2S3.

Structure-Property Study of Homoleptic Zinc(II) Complexes of Di(arylethynyl) Azadipyrromethene as Non-Fullerene Acceptors for Organic Photovoltaics: Effect of Aryl Group
摘要： Azadipyrromethene-based zinc(II) complexes were demonstrated to be promising molecular organic semiconductors for electronic applications due to their easy preparation, tunable structures and high electron affinity. The first successful such complex incorporated phenylethynyl groups at the pyrrolic positions, which red-shifted the absorption spectra of zinc(II) bis(tetraphenyl azadipyrromethene) and improved morphology in blends with poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT). We recently discovered that replacing the phenyl group in the pyrrolic positions with the larger 1-naphthyl group [Zn(L2)2] increases crystallinity and improves the organic photovoltaic (OPV) performance. In this work, two more aryl groups were explored to further investigate the relationship between the aryl groups in the pyrrolic position and electronic properties: naphthyl with a different anchoring site, 2-naphthyl [Zn(L3)2], and a larger aryl group, 9-phenanthrenyl [Zn(L4)2]. The larger aryl group slightly improved absorptivity and red-shifted the absorption spectra and lead to different packing modes in crystals with most intermolecular π-π stacking interactions being of T-shaped type involving the pyrrolic aryl group of one complex. Of the series, 1-naphthyl gave the highest crystallinity. The OPV power conversion efficiency (PCE) of Zn(L3)2 and Zn(L4)2 when blended with P3HT was 3.7% and 3.4%, respectively, both lower than that of Zn(L2)2, PCE of 5.5% due to higher trap-assisted recombination and less favorable morphology. Charge carrier mobility in these complexes was also relatively low, also limiting performance. Single-point energy calculations point to low overlap integrals as a cause for the low mobility. The aryl group anchoring position and size therefore have a large effect on properties in these systems, but do not appear to significantly enhance intermolecular interactions.

Laser Reduction of Graphene Oxide/Zinc Oxide Nanoparticle Nanocomposites as a Onea??Step Process for Supercapacitor Fabrication
摘要： Herein, the laser reduction of graphene oxide (GO) and zinc oxide nanoparticle (ZnONP) nanocomposite ?lms is proposed as a one-step process for supercapacitor fabrication. The ?lms, deposited by casting onto a ?exible poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) substrate coated with indium-doped tin oxide (ITO), are subjected to laser irradiation (5 mW, 405 nm) to reduce the GO phase and produce laser-reduced GO (LRGO). Scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersion spectroscopy (SEM–EDS), micro-Raman spectroscopy, and current versus voltage (I(cid:1) V) analyses show a partial reduction of GO to LRGO, forming several conductor-insulating (LRGO/GO) microporous interfaces, and thereby favoring the formation of a supercapacitor structure. Moreover, the topmost LRGO ?lm layer is extensively reduced, making it suf?ciently conducting to work as the counter electrode as well. However, the reduction process is less effective when ZnONPs are introduced into the GO matrix because ZnONPs get clustered and scatter the incident laser before reaching the GO phase. The capacitive behavior, assessed by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge–discharge measurements, reveals the following (cid:3)1 (GO/LRGO/ ZnONP). The method proposed herein is advantageous because it produces the microcapacitor structures and LRGO counter electrode in a single laser reduction step.

Enhanced Emission of Zinc Nitride Colloidal Nanoparticles with Organic Dyes for Optical Sensor and Imaging Application
摘要： Herein, we reported on the efficiency of inorganic Zn3N2 nanoparticle for labelling plant cells and animal cells towards imaging applications with negligible toxicity. We have synthesized zinc nitride (Zn3N2) colloidal nanoparticles of average size of 25nm at room temperature. The optical bandgap of the prepare Zn3N2 nanoparticles is 2.8 eV and gives a visible range emission at 415 nm. With an addition of Zn3N2 colloids to organic dyes such as protoporphyrin, flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), fluorescein and neutral red, the emission intensity of the organic dyes enhanced from 3 to 20 times. The molecular simulation and lifetime studies evidences the possibility of energy transfer from zinc nitride to the organic dyes. The enhancement of dye intensity in the presence of Zn3N2, enhanced the vicinity of cellular environment during confocal imaging of plant cell and animal cells. The detailed results suggested Zn3N2 for bioimaging and biosensor application.

Electroluminescence from amorphous GIZO/p-GaN heterojunction light-emitting diodes
摘要： The electroluminescence from the amorphous gallium-indium-zinc oxide (a-GIZO)/p-GaN heterojunction light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were demonstrated. The heterojunction LEDs showed a current flow under both forward and reverse bias voltages. The light emissions were observed at around 410 nm (originating from p-GaN) and ~450–800 nm (originating from interfacial layer and/or from a-GIZO), which were particularly pronounced under reverse bias condition. As a result, the standard white light with the chromaticity coordinate of (0.2899, 0.3034) was obtained.

Rapid, sensitive and highly specific label-free fluorescence biosensor for microRNA by branched rolling circle amplification
摘要： A simple fluorescence biosensor for rapid and sensitive target microRNA (miRNA) quantification by branched rolling circle amplification (BRCA) is developed in this work. Target miRNA functions as primer to recognize and hybridize with a circle DNA template, initiating rolling circle amplification (RCA) by Phi29 DNA polymerase. The introduction of reverse primers complementary to the RCA products enables isothermal BRCA, in which a large amount of deoxynucleotide (dNTP) were consumed and same number of pyrophosphates (PPi) were produced. In this study, a simple and non-expensively synthesized terpyridine-based Zn(II) complex is utilized as fluorescent probe for selective detection of pyrophosphate (PPi) over dNTP. The PPi generated in this isothermal amplification process efficiently chelates to this terpyridine-Zn(II) complex, forming a highly fluorescent complex, terpyridine-Zn(II)-PPi, whose fluorescence intensity is closely related with the initial target miRNA concentration. The utilization of the isothermal BRCA amplification and direct monitoring of the DNA polymerization by-product, i.e. PPi, for non-label fluorescence detection of miRNA greatly simplify this sensor procedure. This sensor shows a linear response between the fluorescence intensity and the target miRNA concentration from 50 to 500 fM with a detection limit of 25 fM. This much-simplified sensor offers a sensitive and easy-to-use platform for miRNA quantification, and hence may significantly enhance the utilisation of miRNAs as biomarkers in drug discovery, clinical diagnosis and life science research.

Sputtered p-type Cu <sub/>x</sub> Zn <sub/>1-x</sub> S back contact to CdTe solar cells
摘要： As thin film cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar cells gain prominence, one particular challenge is optimizing contacts and their interfaces to transfer charge without losses in efficiency. Back contact recombination is still significant and will prevent CdTe solar technology from reaching its full potential in device efficiency, and transparent back contacts have not been developed for bifacial solar technology or multijunction solar cells. To address these challenges, this study investigates sputtered CuxZn1-xS as a p-type semi-transparent back contact material to thin film polycrystalline CdTe solar cells, at Cu concentrations x = 0.30, 0.45 and 0.60. This material is selected for its high hole conductivity (160 to 2,120 S cm-1), wide optical band gap (2.25 to 2.75 eV), and variable ionization potential (approximately 6 to 7 eV) that can be aligned to that of CdTe. We report that without device optimization, CdTe solar cells with these CuxZn1-xS back contacts perform as well as control cells with standard ZnTe:Cu back contacts. We observe no reduction in external quantum efficiency, low contact barrier heights of approximately 0.3 eV, and carrier lifetimes on par with those of baseline CdTe. These cells are relatively stable over one year in air, with VOC and efficiency of the x = 0.30 cell decreasing by only 1% and 3%, respectively. Using SEM and STEM to investigate the CuxZn1-xS?CdTe interface, we demonstrate that the CuxZn1-xS layer segregates into a bilayer of Cu-Te-S and Zn-Cd-S, and thermodynamic reaction calculations support these findings. Despite its bilayer formation, the back contact still functions well. This investigation explains some of the physical mechanisms governing the device stack, inspires future work to understand interfacial chemistry and charge transfer, and elicits optimization to achieve higher efficiency CdTe cells.

One-step synthesis and deposition of ZnFe2O4 related composite films via SPPS route for photodegradation application
摘要： Binary spinel-type metal oxides (AB2O4) related materials, including ferrites (AFe2O4), are attractive photocatalysts thanks to their excellent visible light response for the photodegradation of organic pollutants. Currently, these materials are synthesized via conventional chemical routes suffering from long preparation duration and multistep. Solution Precursor Plasma Spray (SPPS) process is a single-step method for depositing photocatalytically active zinc ferrite-based films within several minutes. The influence of the precursor ratio on the microstructures and phase compositions of the ZnFe2O4 films was investigated by XRD and Raman analyses. In addition, two optimized ZnFe2O4 films were prepared by increasing the ZnO loading and tailoring injection pattern of the precursor solution. The surface morphologies and optical bandgap were also determined by SEM and UV-visible spectroscopy. The photocatalytic activities of the ZnFe2O4 films were evaluated through the degradation of the Orange II dye and of tetracycline hydrochloride under UV or visible light irradiation. The results show that compositional ratios and composition distribution of the ZnFe2O4 films prepared via SPPS played a key role on the photocatalytic activity. The SPPS route was demonstrated to be a promising method for the synthesis and the deposition of metal oxide (i.e. perovskite type and spinel type) films within a single-step for functional applications.
