Quantum properties and applications of 2D Janus crystals and their superlattices
(American Institute of Physics, 2020-03)
Two-dimensional (2D) Janus materials are a new class of materials with unique physical, chemical, and quantum properties. The name "Janus" originates from the ancient Roman god which has two faces, one looking to the future ...
Gd3+-Doped alpha-CsPbI3 nanocrystals with better phase stability and optical properties
(American Chemical Society, 2019-10)
Black alpha-CsPbI3 perovskites are unable to maintain their phase stability under room conditions; hence, the alpha-CsPbI3 phase transforms into a thermodynamically stable yellow delta-CsPbI3 phase within a few days, which ...
Experimental and first-principles investigation of Cr-driven color change in cesium lead halide perovskites
(American Institute of Physics, 2019-06)
Herein, we report room temperature Cr-doping for all-inorganic perovskites that have attracted great attention in recent years due to their extraordinary optical properties, low cost, and ease of synthesis. Incorporation ...
Color-tunable all-inorganic CsPbBr3 perovskites nanoplatelet films for photovoltaic devices
(American Chemical Society, 2019-08)
Herein, we demonstrate a novel coating approach to fabricate CsPbBr3 perovskite nanoplatelet film with heat-free process via electrospraying from precursor solution. A detailed study is carried out to determine the effect ...
Orthorhombic CsPbI3 perovskites: Thickness-dependent structural, optical and vibrational properties
(Elsevier, 2020-06)
Cesium lead halide perovskites have been subject to intense investigation, mostly because of their potential to be used in optoelectronic device applications. However, regarding the need for nanoscale materials in forthcoming ...
The effect of DOPA hydroxyl groups on wet adhesion to polystyrene surface: An experimental and theoretical study
(Elsevier, 2020-03)
Mussels wet adhesive performance has been arousing curiosity for a long time. It is found that 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) is responsible for adhesive properties of mussels. Despite a large body of research characterizing ...
Interaction of Ge with single layer GaAs: From Ge-island nucleation to formation of novel stable monolayers
(Elsevier, 2020-03)
In this study, reactivity of single-layer GaAs against Ge atoms is studied by means of ab initio density functional theory calculations. Firstly, it is shown that Ge atoms interact quite strongly with the GaAs layer which ...
