Spin Coherence and Spin Relaxation in Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Lead and Mixed Lead-Tin Perovskites
Metal halide perovskites make up a promising class of materials for
semiconductor spintronics. Here we report a systematic investigation of
coherent spin precession, spin dephasing and spin relaxation of electrons and
holes in two hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites MA0.3FA0.7PbI3 and
MA0.3FA0.7Pb0.5Sn0.5I3 using time-resolved Faraday rotation spectroscopy. With
applied in-plane magnetic fields, we observe robust Larmor spin precession of
electrons and holes that persists for hundreds of picoseconds. The spin
dephasing and relaxation processes are likely to be sensitive to the defect
levels. Temperature-dependent measurements give further insights into the spin
relaxation channels. The extracted electron Land\'e g-factors (3.75 and 4.36)
are the biggest among the reported values in inorganic or hybrid perovskites.
Both the electron and hole g-factors shift dramatically with temperature, which
we propose to originate from thermal lattice vibration effects on the band
structure. These results lay the foundation for further design and use of lead-
and tin-based perovskites for spintronic applications
Revealing unusual bandgap shifts with temperature and bandgap renormalization effect in phase-stabilized metal halide perovskites
Hybrid organic-inorganic metal halide perovskites are emerging materials in
photovoltaics, whose bandgap is one of the most crucial parameters governing
their light harvesting performance. Here we present temperature and
photocarrier density dependence of the bandgap in two phase-stabilized
perovskite thin films (MA0.3FA0.7PbI3 and MA0.3FA0.7Pb0.5Sn0.5I3) using
photoluminescence and absorption spectroscopy. Contrasting bandgap shifts with
temperature are observed between the two perovskites. By utilizing X-ray
diffraction and in situ high pressure photoluminescence spectroscopy, we show
that the thermal expansion plays only a minor role on the large bandgap
blueshift due to the enhanced structural stability in our samples. Our
first-principles calculations further demonstrate the significant impact of
thermally induced lattice distortions on the bandgap widening and reveal that
the anomalous trends are caused by the competition between the static and
dynamic distortions. Additionally, both the bandgap renormalization and band
filling effects are directly observed for the first time in fluence-dependent
photoluminescence measurements and are employed to estimate the exciton
effective mass. Our results provide new insights into the basic understanding
of thermal and charge-accumulation effects on the band structure of hybrid
perovskites
Three new species of the genus Alluaudomyia Kieffer, 1913 (Diptera, Ceratopogonidae) from the National Park of Hainan Tropical Rainforest, China
Three new species of the predaceous midges of genus Alluaudomyia Kieffer, 1913: A. flavinotum Wu & Li, sp. nov. of the maculipennis group, and A. reflexuralis Wu & Li, sp. nov. and A. limu Wu & Li, sp. nov. of the parva group, are described from the National Park of Hainan Tropical Rainforest, Hainan Island, China. Illustrations and COI barcodes (a fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1) of the three new species are also provided. Associations of male and female specimens of two species (A. reflexuralis Wu & Li, sp. nov. and A. limu Wu & Li, sp. nov.) are supported by DNA barcodes. The parva group is reported from China for the first time
CEPC Technical Design Report -- Accelerator
International audienceThe Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) is a large scientific project initiated and hosted by China, fostered through extensive collaboration with international partners. The complex comprises four accelerators: a 30 GeV Linac, a 1.1 GeV Damping Ring, a Booster capable of achieving energies up to 180 GeV, and a Collider operating at varying energy modes (Z, W, H, and ttbar). The Linac and Damping Ring are situated on the surface, while the Booster and Collider are housed in a 100 km circumference underground tunnel, strategically accommodating future expansion with provisions for a Super Proton Proton Collider (SPPC). The CEPC primarily serves as a Higgs factory. In its baseline design with synchrotron radiation (SR) power of 30 MW per beam, it can achieve a luminosity of 5e34 /cm^2/s^1, resulting in an integrated luminosity of 13 /ab for two interaction points over a decade, producing 2.6 million Higgs bosons. Increasing the SR power to 50 MW per beam expands the CEPC's capability to generate 4.3 million Higgs bosons, facilitating precise measurements of Higgs coupling at sub-percent levels, exceeding the precision expected from the HL-LHC by an order of magnitude. This Technical Design Report (TDR) follows the Preliminary Conceptual Design Report (Pre-CDR, 2015) and the Conceptual Design Report (CDR, 2018), comprehensively detailing the machine's layout and performance, physical design and analysis, technical systems design, R&D and prototyping efforts, and associated civil engineering aspects. Additionally, it includes a cost estimate and a preliminary construction timeline, establishing a framework for forthcoming engineering design phase and site selection procedures. Construction is anticipated to begin around 2027-2028, pending government approval, with an estimated duration of 8 years. The commencement of experiments could potentially initiate in the mid-2030s
