Summary: In this study, a series of Cr3+-activated near-infrared (NIR) phosphors with broadband emission and tunable luminescence properties were designed and prepared. The luminescence characteristics of the materials could be controlled by adjusting the crystal field strength. One of the phosphors exhibited high luminous efficiency even at high temperature, and the thermal stability was attributed to the structural confinement and the electron-phonon coupling effect.

Summary: Nitride phosphors are crucial for white-light-emitting diodes in lighting and display applications, with thermal stability being a key factor in evaluating their performance. By analyzing the thermal phenomena and mechanisms in nitride phosphors, strategies such as compositional tailoring, thermal post-treatment, and surface coating can enhance their thermal stability. Options for improving luminescence performance are also highlighted to guide the development and modification of nitride phosphors and other optical materials.

Summary: The effect and mechanism of carrier gas velocity, V/III ratio, and carrier gas velocity match on the growth rate of AlN were investigated in this study. The results showed that the growth rate of AlN initially increased with hydrogen flow rate, reached saturation, and then decreased monotonically. The turning point value depended on the equipment and process. By increasing the MO VM, the growth rate of AlN could be improved, but the uniformity deteriorated due to turbulence and loss of uniform boundary layer. High quality AlN films were successfully grown on nano-patterned sapphire substrates with improved crystalline quality and atomic smooth surfaces.

Summary: This study investigates the melting process and nucleation behavior of sodium crystals using molecular dynamics simulation. The results show good agreement between simulated and experimental values for the melting temperature, density, and radial distribution function of sodium. The diffusion coefficient of liquid sodium increases linearly with temperature, and the homogeneous nucleation rate of melting in superheated sodium crystal exponentially increases with temperature. The findings provide theoretical support for applications involving heat and mass transfer in sodium-related systems.

Summary: Epitaxial V2O3 films were fabricated on sapphire substrates using mist chemical vapor deposition (mist CVD) method, eliminating the need for high vacuum conditions. The films can be grown on sapphire substrates even under atmospheric pressure, with the optimal growth temperature at 823 K. The films grown at 823 K exhibit a metal-insulator transition at approximately 155 K. The film on C-plane sapphire exhibits a lower transition temperature compared to those on R- and A-plane sapphire substrates.

Summary: This article discusses the novel fractal nature of hydrothermally synthesized MoS2 QDs. By adjusting the reaction time, the study found that the average size of QDs increases and then decreases with longer reaction times. STEM images indicate that shorter reaction times lead to sheet formation, while extended reaction times cause sheets to fragment into QDs.

Summary: The effect of growth temperature on the buffer leakage currents of GaN-on-Si layers was investigated. It was found that higher growth temperature results in lower leakage currents. The defects in GaN layers grown at different temperatures were studied using photoluminescence technique, and a correlation between leakage currents, structural perfection, and donor concentration in GaN-on-Si layers was established. It was also observed that reduced growth temperature leads to the formation of inversion domains.
