The synthesis and growth mechanism of well-defined nanostructures are still challenging. In this study, we offer a novel soft chemistry route to modify the size and shape of irregular fluoride crystals by changing the surface charge distribution of the crystal nucleus by Bi3+, Al3+, Gd3+, Yb3+, Ba2+ and Ca2+ ion doping. As a result, irregular BaF2, SrF2, GdF3, and NaGdF4 alkaline-earth and lanthanide fluorides can be converted into nanoparticles with high yield and controlled size and shape, in which the phase transition from microcrystals to single-crystalline is also achieved. Enhanced yellow and red emissions of Eu3+-doped BaF2 induced by doping are observed. In conjunction with density functional theory calculations, it shows that the shape and size modifications originate from the surface charge redistribution of the crystal nucleus induced by inner electron charge transfer between the doping ions and lattice cations.

Compared with the luminous efficacy of traditional (fluorescent silicone) LEDs (59 lm/W), the luminous efficacy of the new LED is increased by 62.7%, and reaches 96.74 lm/W. Thus, this far-red LED with high IQE has a long-term application prospect in plant growth.

Designing CMOS compatible efficient ohmic contacts to WSi2N4 via surface-engineered Mo2B monolayer electrodes

Liemao Cao, Xiaohui Deng, Zhen-kun Tang, Rui Tan, Yee Sin Ang

Summary: We investigate the interface properties between WSi2N4 and Mo2B, O-modified Mo2B, and OH-modified Mo2B nanosheets. We find that WSi2N4 and Mo2B form n-type Schottky contacts, while functionalizing Mo2B with O and OH leads to the formation of both n-type and p-type ohmic contacts with WSi2N4. Additionally, we demonstrate the emergence of quasi-ohmic contact with ultralow lateral Schottky barrier and zero vertical interfacial tunneling barriers in Mo2B(OH)2-contacted WSi2N4.

Photoluminescence and structural phase transition relationship in Er-doped BaTiO3 model ferroelectric system

Jingye Zou, Shenglan Hao, Pascale Gemeiner, Nicolas Guiblin, Omar Ibder, Brahim Dkhil, Charles Paillard

Summary: When rare-earth ions are embedded in a ferroelectric material, their photoluminescence can serve as an all-optical probe for temperature, electric field, and mechanical stimulus. However, the impact of ferroelectric phase transitions on photoluminescence is not well understood. In this study, we demonstrate changes in the photoluminescence of green emission bands during critical ferroelectric transitions in an Er-doped BaTiO3 material. We also find that the intensity ratio and wavelength position difference of sub-peaks provide information on the phase transitions.
