Enhanced Single-Mode Lasers of All-Inorganic Perovskite Nanocube by Localized Surface Plasmonic Effect from Au Nanoparticles
摘要: Miniaturized laser sources recently attracted considerable interests as their potential applications in optical communication, data storage, and imaging. However, high cavity losses induced by size reduction from the gain medium would lead high lasing threshold. In this work, the enhanced optical properties of CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocubes by using localized surface plasmonic effect of Au nanoparticles (NPs) were investigated. The integration of Au NPs in the poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxy-thiophene): poly (styrenesulfonate) PEDOT: PSS layer induces obviously enhancement both in the absorption and photoluminescence (PL) of CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocubes. Importantly,the lasing threshold of CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocubes is significantly reduced by ~ 33%. This study suggests that the lead halide perovskites hybridized with plasmonic nanomaterials would be promising candidates for laser devices and other optoelectronic devices with high efficiency.

Electrospun carbon nanofibers decorated with Pt-Ni2P nanoparticles as high efficiency counter electrode for dye-sensitized solar cells
摘要: Carbon nanofibers (CNs) supported by Pt and Ni2P nanoparticles (Pt-Ni2P/CNs) are successfully synthesized and explored as counter electrodes for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) for the first time. Pt and Ni2P nanoparticles are prepared by stabilization and carbonization of electrospun nanofibers, and subsequently controllable Pt and Ni2P nanoparticles are grown on surface of CNs obtained through redox reaction. A series of electrochemical measurements analysis confirm that the Pt-Ni2P/CNs composite have simultaneously superior electrocatalytic activity and enhanced electrical conductivity compared with those of individual CNs and Pt. Accordingly, DSSCs using the composite Pt-Ni2P/CNs as a counter electrode exhibit a excellent photovoltaic performance (power conversion efficiency of 9.11%), which is much higher than conventional Pt/CNs counter electrode (power conversion efficiency of 8.35%), owing to the collective effect of the high electrical conductivity originated from carbon nanofibers and superior electrocatalytic activity arising from Pt/CNs nanoparticles.

KMnF3:Yb3+,Er3+ Core-Active-Shell Nanoparticles with Broadband Down-Shifting Luminescence at 1.5 μm for Polymer-Based Waveguide Amplifiers
摘要: In this study, we prepared cubic-phase oleic-acid-coated KMnF3: Yb3+,Er3+ nanoparticles (NPs) and NaYF4:Yb3+,Er3+ NPs, which were about 23 nm. From the down-shifting emissions spectra of the two NPs obtained by 980 nm excitation, we observed the fact that the KMnF3: 18%Yb3+,1%Er3+ NPs were a luminescent material with a broadband near-infrared emission of 1.5 μm, and full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) of 55 cm?1, which was wider than that of the NaYF4: 18%Yb3+,1% NPs. Therefore, we believe that the oleic-acid-coated KMnF3:Yb3+,Er3+ NPs have great potential in fabricating broadband waveguide ampli?ers. Through epitaxial growth of a KMnF3: Yb3+ active-shell on the core NPs, we compounded KMnF3:Yb3+,Er3+@KMnF3:Yb3+ core-active-shell NPs whose 1.5-μm infrared emissions intensity was 3.4 times as strong as that of the core NPs. In addition, we manufactured waveguide ampli?ers using KMnF3:18%Yb3+,1%Er3+@KMnF3:2%Yb3+ NPs as the core materials of the waveguide ampli?ers. When the input signal power was 0.2 mW and the pump power was 200 mW, we achieved a relative gain of 0.6 dB at 1534 nm in a 10-mm long waveguide.

Tunable magnetic and fluorescent properties of Tb3Ga5O12 nanoparticles doped with Er3+, Yb3+, and Sc3+
摘要: In this study, we present the synthesis of Tb3Ga5O12 nanoparticles doped with Er3+, Yb3+, and Sc3+ ions, prepared using a co-precipitation method. These materials have well-defined magnetic-fluorescence properties. The effects of Yb3+ ion concentration on the structural characteristics, morphology, luminescence, and magnetic properties of the nanoparticles were investigated in detail using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometer measurements. Under 980-nm laser diode excitation, the nanoparticles displayed bright up-conversion luminescence, showing evidence of resonant energy transfer from the Yb3+ to Er3+ ions. Intense green and red emissions located at approximately 526, 548, and 656 nm were attributed to the radiant transitions of 2H11/2 → 4I15/2, 4S3/2 → 4I15/2, and 4F9/2 → 4I15/2 of Er3+, respectively. These observations indicate that Tb3Ga5O12:Er3+, Yb3+, Sc3+ magnetic–fluorescent bifunctional nanoparticles are promising materials for use in bioimaging and magnetic bio-separation applications.

The impact of ZnO configuration as an external layer on the sensitivity of a bi-layer coated polymer optical fiber probe
摘要: Salinity magnitude changes are a critical factor for determining the chemistry of natural water bodies and biological processes. Label-free refractive index sensors are promising devices for detecting these changes. A polymer optical fiber (POF) sensor modified with cladding treatment and a bi-layer zinc oxide/silver (ZnO/Ag) nanostructure coating to determine sodium chloride concentration changes through refractive index variations in water is experimentally demonstrated. The use of three ZnO nanostructure shapes, nanoparticles and horizontally and vertically oriented nanorods, as an external layer and a broad spectrum light source from the visible (Vis) to the near infrared (NIR) region are investigated to achieve optimum sensitivity. The rms roughness, optical band-gap and zeta potential (ZP) value for the vertically oriented sample are 148 nm, 3.19 eV and 5.96 mV, respectively. In the NIR region the wavelength–intensity sensitivity values of probes coated with ZnO nanoparticles and horizontally and vertically oriented nanorods are 104 nm RIU?1–12 dB RIU?1, 63 nm RIU?1–10 dB RIU?1 and 146 nm RIU?1–22 dB RIU?1, respectively, and in the Vis area the values are 65 nm RIU?1–14 dB RIU?1, 58 nm RIU?1–11 dB RIU?1 and 89 nm RIU?1–23 dB RIU?1, respectively. The maximum amplitude sensitivity is obtained for the probe coated with vertically aligned ZnO nanorods in the NIR area due to the deeper penetration of evanescent waves, a higher surface-volume ratio, better crystallinity, more adhesive interactions with salt molecules, larger surface roughness and higher-order dispersion compared to the other coated ZnO nanostructures.

Enhanced visible-light-driven photocatalytic activity of BiFeO3 via electric-field control of spontaneous polarization
摘要: Well-polarized BiFeO3 nanoparticles have been successfully prepared by a facile electrical poling method with the assist of a soluble organic-inorganic composite film. From XRD, TEM and SEM studies, no significant change in the crystal structure or morphology was detected after the electrical poling process. The visible-light driven photocatalytic process of poled BiFeO3 nanoparticles was accelerated by 2 times compared to unpoled BiFeO3. By combining time-resolved photoluminescence (PL), photoinduced silver deposition testing and photoelectrochemical measurements, it can be revealed that the enhanced photocatalytic performance of poled samples can be properly attributed to the promoted separation and prolonged lifetime of the photogenerated carriers caused by the ferroelectric polarization. These findings may offer a new route to promote the photocatalytic or photoelectric performances of BiFeO3 for advanced applications by adjusting the ferroelectric polarization.

Significantly Enhanced Energy Density by Tailoring the Interface in a Hierarchical-Structured TiO2-BaTiO3-TiO2 Nanofillers in PVDF Based Thin Film Polymer Nanocomposite
摘要: Dielectric polymer nanocomposites with high breakdown field and high dielectric constant have drawn significant attention in modern electrical and electronic industries due to their potential applications in dielectric and energy storage systems. The interfaces of the nanomaterials play a significant role in improving the dielectric performance of polymer nanocomposites. In this work, polydopamine (dopa) functionalized TiO2-BaTiO3-TiO2 (TiO2-BT-TiO2@dopa) core@double-shell nanoparticles have been developed as novel nanofillers for high energy density capacitor application. The hierarchically designed nanofillers help in tailoring the interfaces surrounding the polymer matrix as well as act as individual capacitors in which core and outer TiO2 shell functions as capacitor plate because of their high electrical conductivity while the middle BT layer functions as a dielectric medium due to high dielectric constant. Detailed electrical characterizations have revealed that TiO2-BT-TiO2@dopa/PVDF possess maximum relative dielectric permittivity (εr), breakdown strength (Eb), as well as energy densities in comparison to PVDF, TiO2/PVDF, TiO2@dopa/PVDF, TiO2-BT@dopa/PVDF polymer nanocomposites. The εr and energy density of TiO2-BT-TiO2@dopa/PVDF was 12.6 at 1 kHz and 4.4 J cm-3 at 3128 kV cm-1, respectively, which was comparatively much higher than commercially available biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) having εr of 2.2 and the energy density of 1.2 J cm-3 at much higher electric field of 6400 kV cm-1. It is expected that these results will further open new avenues for the design of novel architecture for high-performance polymer nanocomposites-based capacitors having core@multishell nanofillers with tailored interfaces.

Ambient surface stability of thin film nanocrystalline Cu <sub/>3</sub> SbSe <sub/>4</sub> and structure-property relationships
摘要: Nanocrystalline materials have a high surface area, and hence may be significantly more reactive than their bulk counterparts under ambient conditions. This may affect device function in unexpected ways. Here, high quality crystalline Cu3SbSe4 nanocrystals are synthesized through a hot injection route, and thin films are deposited through a ligand exchange procedure. The electronic conductivity of the films increases significantly upon exposure to air, up to 80 Ω-1cm-1. This increase in conductivity is correlated to a surface oxidation as observed by XPS. The observed changes in the film upon exposure to ambient conditions are suggested to be critical for understanding the properties of these materials as they are incorporated into devices.

How to unravel the chemical structure and component localization of individual drug-loaded polymeric nanoparticles by using tapping AFM-IR
摘要: AFM-IR is a photothermal technique that combines AFM and infrared (IR) spectroscopy to unambiguously identify the chemical composition of a sample with tens of nanometer spatial resolution. So far, it has been successfully used in contact mode in a variety of applications. However, the contact mode is unsuitable for soft or loosely adhesive samples such as polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) of less than 200 nm of wide interest for biomedical applications. We describe here the theoretical basis of the innovative tapping AFM-IR mode that can address novel challenges in imaging and chemical mapping. The new method enables gaining information not only on NP morphology and composition, but also reveals drug location and core–shell structures. Whereas up to now the locations of NP components could only be hypothesized, tapping AFM-IR allows accurately visualizing both the location of the NPs’ shells and that of the incorporated drug, pipemidic acid. The preferential accumulation of the drug in the NPs’ top layers was proved, despite its low concentration (<1 wt%). These studies pave the way towards the use of tapping AFM-IR as a powerful tool to control the quality of NP formulations based on individual NP detection and component quantification.
