Demonstration of Photovoltaic Action and Enhanced Stability from a Quasi-Two-Dimensional Hybrid Organic–Inorganic Copper–Halide Material Incorporating Divalent Organic Groups
摘要: Commercialization of solar cells based on photoactive lead–halide perovskites is in-part limited by their toxicity and instability. In this study, new and related copper–halide hybrid organic–inorganic materials containing dicationic 1,6-hexanediammonium (+H3N-C6H12-NH3+) demonstrated superior stability to heat and moisture in comparison to the analogous material containing monocationic 1-propylammonium (C3H7-NH3+) in twice the stoichiometry. Electronic absorption spectra taken of the materials were consistent with an indirect optical bandgap of ~1.8 eV, making them well-suited for application as the photoactive layer in the top cell of a tandem solar cell with silicon. The best-performing single-junction solar cells containing the dicationic material as the photoactive layer exhibited an open-circuit photovoltage in excess of 400 mV and a short-circuit photocurrent density of ~30 μA/cm2. These values are similar to those reported for state-of-the-art copper–halide hybrid organic–inorganic materials containing organic monocations and motivate further research on this class of materials.

Crystal structure, optical and electrical properties of metal-halide compound [C7H16N2][ZnCl4]
摘要: A new organic–inorganic hybrid compound [C7H16N2][ZnCl4] was synthesized by hydrothermal method and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR and Raman spectroscopy, optical absorption, differential scanning calorimetry and dielectric measurements. Single crystal diffraction results showed that [C7H16N2][ZnCl4] crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/c at room temperature. In the molecular arrangement, the tetrachlorozincate anions are connected to organic cations through N-H...Cl hydrogen bonds. The Raman and IR analyses confirm the presence of the organic groups and the anionic entities. UV–Visible absorption spectrum revealed the energy of the optical band gap. DSC measurements indicated that [C7H16N2][ZnCl4] undergoes three sequential phase transitions at 287, 338 and 356 K. The dielectric study proved the ferroelectric properties below the 338K and indicates their classical character for this compound. The analysis of Nyquist plots revealed the contribution of the bulk mechanism and the grain boundaries.

A new non-centrosymmetric Chlorobismuthate(III) hybrid material: Crystal structure, optical properties and antibacterial study
摘要: As part of our interest in organic-inorganic metallate complexes, we had prepared a novel non-centrosymmetric chlorobismuthate (III) compound with the chemical formula (C6H7NCl)3 [BiCl6]$H2O, by slow evaporation method at room temperature. It was characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), X-ray powder diffraction (PXRD), spectroscopic measurements, thermal study, Hirshfeld surface analysis, DFT investigation, and antimicrobial activity. A preliminary SCXRD structural analysis revealed that the compound crystallizes in the Orthorhombic system (P212121 space group) with the following unit cell parameters a ? 7.3432 (1) ?, b ? 13.8257 (2) ? and c ? 28.2140 (5) ? with Z ? 4 and V ? 2864.42 (8) ?3. The examination of the structure shows that its atomic arrangement can be described as inorganic [BiCl6]3- units isolated from each other by the organic cations and the co-crystallized water molecules. The cohesion between these entities is performed via the NeH/Cl, NeH/O, CeH/O, CeH/Cl, and OeH/Cl hydrogen bonding interactions between the 4-dichloroanilinium cations, the [BiCl6]3- anions and water molecules forming a 3D network. The Hirshfeld surface calculation was conducted to investigate: intermolecular interactions, associated 2D ?ngerprint plots, and enrichment ratio, indicating the relative contribution of these interactions in the crystal structure quantitatively. Thermal analysis reveals the decomposition of the compound at 180 (cid:2)C. The quantum mechanical calculations such as geometry optimization, vibrational frequencies, simulated UVeVisible spectrum, FMOs analysis were made together with the experimental studies. Furthermore, the new synthesized compound was screened for its antibacterial activity. Results revealed that it has the most effective activity against all the tested bacteria compared to the amine alone and to the BiOCl.

Electrochromic Properties of Polyaniline-Based Hybrid Organic/Inorganic Materials
摘要: Hybrid materials based on polyaniline (PAni) were obtained by in situ polymerization of aniline with chitosan and/or organically modified clay (nanomer I-24) in HCl. The samples were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and direct current (DC) electrical conductivity. Thin films of PAni, PAni-clay, PAni-chitosan and PAni-chitosan-clay were prepared by casting a solution of each sample in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) onto indium tin oxide (ITO)/glass electrodes and their electrochromic properties were investigated. It was observed color variation from transparent yellow in the reduced state (E = ?0.2 V vs. Ag/AgCl), green in the intermediate state (E = 0.5 V) and dark blue in the oxidized state (E = 0.8 V) for all samples. The color changes of each material in function of the applied potential were tracked using the Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage (CIE) system of colorimetry, in which the color change was much more significant for PAni-clay film.

Dual-emission CdTe quantum dot@ZIF-365 ratiometric fluorescent sensor and application for highly sensitive detection of l-histidine and Cu2+
摘要: L-histidine acts as a semi-essential amino acid, which is medically used in the treatment of gastric ulcer, anemia, allergies. However, the overuse of L-histidine will result in terrible damage to heart disease, slow growth of animals and water pollution in the environment. In addition, Cu2+ pollution is common environmental pollution in the industry. It has the characteristics of high accumulation, migration, and persistence. Given this, through the post-synthesis strategy, CdTe quantum dots (QDs) were the first time to introduce into zeolitic imidazolate framework-ZIF-365 to synthesis dual-emission hybrid material CdTe@ZIF-365 with high quantum yield. TEM mappings and N2 absorption tests are applied to confirm the combination mode between CdTe quantum dots and ZIF-365. It should be noted that CdTe@ZIF-365 can be successfully utilized as a bi-functional ratiometric sensor for highly sensitive discrimination of L-histidine and Cu2+. Firstly, CdTe@ZIF-365 is applied to a fluorescent ratiometric sensor for Cu2+ with high sensitivity (the Ksv value is 2.7417(cid:1)107 [M-1]) and selectivity in the mixed cation ions’ solution. On the other hand, CdTe@ZIF-365 also behaved as the first example for an excellent ratiometric fluorescent senor for L-histidine with high sensitivity (the Ksv value is 6.0507(cid:1)108 [M-1]) and selectivity in the mixed amino acids’ solutions.

Vertically Aligned Ag <sub/><i>x</i> </sub> Au <sub/> 1a?? <i>x</i> </sub> Alloyed Nanopillars Embedded in ZnO as Nanoengineered Low-Loss Hybrid Plasmonic Metamaterials
摘要: Hybrid plasmonic metamaterials offer a pathway to exotic properties and technologically important applications including subdiffraction imaging and plasmonic energy harvesting. Challenges remain towards practical application including high absorption losses of noble metals and tedious growth / fabrication processes. In this work, a self-assembled hybrid plasmonic metamaterial consisting of anisotropic AgxAu1-x alloy nanopillars embedded in a ZnO matrix has been successfully grown. Chemical composition of the nanoalloy was determined to be Ag61Au39. The microstructure and optical properties arising from ZnO-Ag61Au39 alloyed hybrid systems were investigated and compared with that of the ZnO-Ag particle-in-matrix nanocomposite and the ZnO-Au vertically aligned nanocomposite. ZnO-Ag61Au39 hybrid system demonstrates anisotropic morphology, excellent epitaxial quality, and enhanced optical properties including surface plasmon resonance, hyperbolic dispersion, low absorption losses, and numerous epsilon-near zero permittivity points, making it a promising candidate for practical applications of hybrid plasmonic metamaterials.

Photodetector Based on Spontaneously Grown Strongly Coupled MAPbBr3/N-rGO Hybrids Showing an Enhanced Performance
摘要: Recently, metal-halide perovskites have emerged as a candidate for optoelectronic applications such as photodetectors. However, the poor device performance and instability have limited their future commercialization. We herein report the spontaneous growth of perovskite/N-rGO hybrid structures using a facile solution method and their application for photodetectors. In the hybrid structures, perovskites were homogeneously wrapped by N-rGO sheets through strong hydrogen bonding. The strongly coupled N-rGOs facilitate the charge carrier transportation across the perovskite crystals, but also distort the surface lattice of the perovskite creating potential barrier for charge transfer. We optimize the addition of N-rGO in the hybrid structures to balance the interfacial structural distortion and the inter-crystal conductivity. A high-performance photodetection up to 3 × 104 A/W, external quantum efficiency (EQE) exceeding 105 % and detectivity up to 1012 Jones were achieved in the optimal device with the weight ratio between perovskites and N-rGO to be 8:1.5. The underlying mechanism behind the optimal N-rGO addition ratio in the hybrids has also been rationalized via time-resolved spectroscopic studies as a reference for future application.

New Antimony-Based Organic–Inorganic Hybrid Material as Electron Extraction Layer for Efficient and Stable Polymer Solar Cells
摘要: Hybrid organic-inorganic materials are a new class of material used as interfacial layers in polymer solar cells. A hybrid material, composed of antimony as inorganic part and diaminopyridine as organic part, is synthesized and described as a new material for electron extraction layer in polymer solar cells and compared to the recently demonstrated hybrid materials using bismuth instead of antimony. The hybrid compound is solution-processed onto the photoactive layer based on a classical blend, composed of PTB7-Th low bandgap polymer as donor mixed with PC70BM fullerene as acceptor material. By using a regular device structure and an aluminum cathode, the solar cells exhibited a power conversion efficiency of 8.42%, equivalent to the reference device using ZnO nanocrystals as interfacial layer, and strongly improved compared to bismuth-based hybrid material. The processing of extraction layers up to a thickness of 80 nm of such hybrid material reveals that the change from bismuth to antimony has strongly improved the charge extraction and transport properties of the hybrid materials. Interestingly, nanocomposites made of the hybrid material mixed with ZnO nanocrystals in a 1:1 ratio further improved the electronic properties of the extraction layers, leading to power conversion efficiency of 9.74%. This was addressed to a more closely packed morphology of the hybrid layer, leading to further improved electron extraction. It is important to note that these hybrid electron extraction layers, both pure and ZnO-doped, also greatly improved the stability of solar cells, both under dark storage in air and under lighting under inert atmosphere compared to solar cells treated with ZnO intermediate layers.

Fluorescence and Morphology of Self‐Assembled Nucleobases and Their Diphenylalanine Hybrid Aggregates
摘要: Studies carried out in the last decades have unveiled that the ability to self-assemble is a widespread property among biomolecules. Small nucleic acid moieties or very short peptides are able to generate intricate assemblies endowed with remarkable structural and spectroscopic properties. Here we report structural/spectroscopic characterizations of aggregates formed by nucleobases as well as by Peptide Nucleic Acids (PNA)-peptide conjugates. At high concentration, all studied nucleobases form aggregates characterized by previously unreported fluorescence properties. The conjugation of these bases, as PNA derivatives, to the dipeptide Phe-Phe leads to the formation of novel hybrid assemblies, characterized by an amyloid-like association of the monomers. Although these compounds share the same basic cross-β motif, the nature and the number of PNA units have an important impact both on the level of structural order and on the intrinsic fluorescence of the self-assembled nanostructure.
