    Interfacial Gradient-Energy-Band-Alignment Modulation via a Vapor-Phase Anion-Exchange Reaction toward Lead-Free Perovskite Photodetectors with Excellent UV Imaging Capability

    No full text
    Bi-based inorganic perovskites have attracted great attention in optoelectronics, as they feature similar photoelectric properties but have high stability and lead-free merits. Unfortunately, due to the high exciton binding energy and small Bohr radius, their photodetection performance still largely lags behind that of Pb-based counterparts. Herein, using a vapor-phase chloride ion-substitution strategy, Cs3Bi2Br9 photodetectors (PDs) with gradient energy band alignment were delicately modulated, contributing to a high carrier separation/collection efficiency. The optimized Bi-based perovskite ACCT (Al2O3/Cs3Bi2Br9/Cs3Bi2ClxBr9–x/TiO2) PDs exhibit outstanding performance, the ON/OFF ratio and linear dynamic range (LDR) are significantly improved by 20 and 2.6 times, respectively. Significantly, we further demonstrate the high-SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) UV imaging based on the optimized device, which shows 21.887 dB higher than that of the pristine device. Finally, the vapor-phase anion-exchange modified perovskite PDs show long-term stability and high UV resistance. Vapor-phase ion-substitution is a promising approach for the synergistic effect of matched energy band alignment and interface passivation, which can be applied to other perovskite-based optoelectronic devices

    Tuning the Electrical Transport Properties of Multilayered Molybdenum Disulfide Nanosheets by Intercalating Phosphorus

    We demonstrate the tuning of the electrical transport properties of MoS<sub>2</sub> nanosheets by intercalating phosphorus (P). The P-doped MoS<sub>2</sub> nanosheets were synthesized by a facile hydrothermal method. The structures and electrical properties of P-doped MoS<sub>2</sub> nanosheets were systematically investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, transmission electron microscopy, Raman spectral analysis, adsorption spectra analysis, and Hall measurements. The results indicate that the stacking of the (002) plane in multilayered MoS<sub>2</sub> nanosheets is inhibited and the interlayer spacing is enlarged with the introduction of P atoms. Both experimental results and theoretical calculations indicate that P atoms are much easier to intercalate into the interlayers of MoS<sub>2</sub>, compared with substitution of Mo and S, which significantly affects the vibrational modes of Raman spectra. Furthermore, because of the extra electrons introduced by intercalating P atoms, the conductivity of MoS<sub>2</sub> could be gradually modulated from p-type to n-type by increasing the content of intercalated P. This demonstration of tuning the electrical transport properties of MoS<sub>2</sub> could help in the design of electrical and optoelectronic devices based on layered metal dichalcogenides

    Although metal nanowires (NWs), such as silver NWs, are ideal materials for flexible transparent electromagnetic shielding films, the challenge of obtaining absorptive shielding films with high transmittance and shielding efficiency (SE) still exists. To address this issue, this study used iron nanowires (Fe NWs) with excellent microwave absorbing properties to construct structures with ordered NW distributions. A series of polyethylene terephthalate (PET)/Fe NWs/poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding films were prepared using the magnetic-field-induced orientation. The results demonstrate that the ordered Fe NW network structure can effectively overcome the problem of the trade-off between light transmittance and EMI SE. Specifically, at a Fe NW surface density of 201.78 mg/m2, the ordered PET/Fe NWs/PEDOT films demonstrated a 49.06% increase in light transmittance and a 32.94% increase in EMI SE (19.37 dB), compared to the films with randomly distributed Fe NWs. Furthermore, constructing a double-layer Fe NW network with a stagger angle of 45° at the same surface density increased the EMI SE by 73.2% relative to the monolayer-ordered Fe NW structure, reaching an SE value of 33.54 dB, while maintaining almost unchanged light transmittance. Additionally, the PET/Fe NWs/PEDOT films maintain 97.4% of EMI performance after 3000 bending cycles. Overall, this study provides a new approach for creating high-performance flexible transparent EMI shielding films

    Effects of seed crystal concentration, pH, and stirring rate on ammonium sulfate crystallization under the action of ammonium nitrate

    No full text
    In order to explore the effect of ammonium nitrate on the crystallization of ammonium sulfate mother liquor, this paper selected crystal seed, pH and stirring rate as the influencing factors, and studied the changes of average particle size, morphology and phase structure of ammonium sulfate crystals under the action of ammonium nitrate. When the seed crystal concentration was 1%–2%, the solute growth of the mixed solution could effectively reduce the supersaturation during the evaporation process, and the crystal growth did not generate new crystal nuclei, interfering with the crystallization process. A pH value of 4–5 promotes solvent/crystal surface interaction and crystal surface growth, which is beneficial for obtaining high-quality crystals. At a stirring rate of 200–300 r/min, the nucleation rate and secondary nucleation were improved, which is conducive to solid–liquid separation.</p

    Exploration, utilization, and protection of marine resources are of great significance to the survival and development of mankind. However, currently classical optical cameras suffer information loss, low contrast, and color distortion due to the absorption and scattering nature for the underwater environment. Here, we demonstrate an underwater multispectral computational imaging system combined with single-photodetector imaging algorithm technology and a CdS/Sb2Se3 heterojunction photodetector. The computational imaging technology coupled with an advanced Fourier algorithm can capture a scene by a single photodetector without spatial resolution that avoids the need to rely on high-density detectors array and bulky optical components in traditional imaging systems. This convenient computational imaging method provides more flexible possibilities for underwater imaging and promises to give more imaging capabilities (such as multispectral imaging, antiscattering imaging capability) to meet ever-changing demand of underwater imaging. In addition, the water-resistant CdS/Sb2Se3 heterojunction photodetector fabricated by the close spaced sublimation (Sb2Se3) and chemical bath deposition (CdS) shows excellent self-powered photodetection performance at zero bias with high LDR of 128 dB, broadband response spectrum range of 300–1050 nm, high responsivity up to 0.47 A/W, and high specific detectivity over 5 × 1012 jones. Compared with the traditional optical imaging system, our designed computational imaging system that combines the advanced Fourier algorithm and a high-performance CdS/Sb2Se3 heterojunction photodetector exhibits outstanding antiscattering imaging capability (shielded by frosted glass), weak light imaging capability (∼0.2 μW/cm2, corresponding to moonlight intensity), and multispectral imaging capability. Therefore, we believe that this work will boost the progress of marine science
