A reversible diode-like resistive electrical switching composite material, an AgTCNQF(4)-AgNPs-TiO2 organic-metal-inorganic hetero-nanojunction array, has been successfully prepared on a fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) glass slide. These AgTCNQF4-AgNPs-TiO2 nanojunctions show obvious absorption bands in the visible to near-infrared region, which are attributed to interfacial charge transfer from TiO2 to AgTCNQF(4). Moreover, the local electrical properties of these AgTCNQF(4)-AgNPs-TiO2 nanojunctions have been tested in a device configuration of Au-tip/AgTCNQF(4)-AgNPs-TiO2/FTO and the measured results reveal that these AgTCNQF(4)-AgNPs-TiO2 nanojunctions possess many applicable functions involving the switchable diode effect, reversible electrical switching and memory behavior.

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.

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.
