Abstract:
Abstract Black phase CsPbI 3 is attractive for optoelectronic devices, while usually it has a high formation energy and requires an annealing temperature of above 300 °C. The formation energy can be significantly reduced by adding HI in the precursor. However, the resulting films are not suitable for light-emitting applications due to the high trap densities and low photoluminescence quantum efficiencies, and the low temperature formation mechanism is not well understood yet. Here, we demonstrate a general approach for deposition of γ- CsPbI 3 films at 100 °C with high photoluminescence quantum efficiencies by adding organic ammonium cations, and the resulting light-emitting diode exhibits an external quantum efficiency of 10.4% with suppressed efficiency roll-off. We reveal that the low-temperature crystallization process is due to the formation of low-dimensional intermediate states, and followed by interionic exchange. This work provides perspectives to tune phase transition pathway at low temperature for CsPbI 3 device applications.Keywords:

In this work, we present a detailed investigation of the low temperature emission properties of ZnSeO alloys by means of photoluminescence, micro-photoluminescence, and time-resolved photoluminescence. We show that the low temperature broad photoluminescence spectrum of ZnSeO attributed to the recombination of localized excitons is composed of sharp lines related to individual trapping states. Based on studies of photoluminescence thermal quenching from individual trapping states and photoluminescence dynamics, the mechanism of nonradiative recombination in ZnSeO alloys is discussed. Moreover, an unexpected decrease of the low temperature Stokes shift with increasing oxygen content is observed in contrast to what has been reported for GaAs based highly mismatched alloys. The possible origin of this effect is proposed.

Red micro-light-emitting diodes (μLEDs) have been generated significant interest for the next generation μLEDs displays. It has been shown that the external quantum efficiency (EQE) of AlInGaP red μLEDs markedly decreases as the size goes to very small dimension. Here, we demonstrate size-independent peak EQE of 611 nm InGaN red μLEDs. Packaged μLEDs show a peak EQE varied from 2.4% to 2.6% as the device area reduces from 100 × 100 to 20 × 20 μm2. These results demonstrate the promising potential for realizing high efficiency red μLED with very small size using InGaN materials.

We examined the change in photoluminescence spectra of porous Si when it is oxidized then deoxidized chemically. After both steps, photoluminescence shifted to higher frequencies and increased in intensity. These shifts to higher frequencies indicate the photoluminescence is a result of the quantum size effect. Moreover, the increase in photoluminescence intensity after oxidation suggests that termination by hydrogen on the porous Si surface does not always play a key role in the photoluminescence mechanism.

Near-ultraviolet (NUV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have been used in several potential applications such as UV curing and biochemical sensors. However, the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of NUV-LEDs is still a crucial issue. To improve the IQE, in this paper, an asymmetric triangular multiple quantum well (MQW) structure was used, which exhibited a higher emission efficiency and lower efficiency droop with nitrogen face-oriented inclination. This is in contrast to the trend observed in blue LEDs. Furthermore, we demonstrated that holes are more confined in MQWs with nitrogen face-oriented inclination than in MQWs with gallium face-oriented inclination. Moreover, simulations revealed that the IQE improved by approximately 32% compared with that of symmetric square MQW NUV-LEDs; this trend was also confirmed through experimental results. The external quantum efficiency of thin-film flip-chip LEDs with nitrogen face-oriented inclination MQWs was 52%.

We report the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of m-plane InGaN-based LEDs and c-plane LEDs emitting at 400 nm. According to excitation density dependent photoluminescence (PL) measurements, the IQE values for the m-plane LEDs are approximately 70% higher than that for c-plane reference LEDs with the same structure (multiple-quantum well active region with 3nm In0.01Ga0.99N barriers) and similar emission wavelength (400nm) albeit on sapphire substrate. Electroluminescence (EL) measurements reveal that the external quantum efficiency (EQE) from both LEDs shows negligible droop under electrical injection due to the employment of thin In0.01Ga0.99N barriers, i.e. coupled quantum wells, in the active regions. However, with increasing current, the EL intensity of the m-plane LEDs increases more rapidly than that of the c-plane LEDs, with the EL intensity reaching its peak value at ~240 Acm-2 for the m-plane LEDs and ~420 Acm-2 for the c-plane LEDs. Consistent with the IQE values obtained from the PL measurements, the m-plane LEDs exhibit ~ 60% higher EQE values than the c-plane counterparts. It is also worth to mention that increasing the emission wavelength (from 400 nm to 435 nm) for the m-plane LEDs does not affect the efficiency retention at high injection levels.

In this work we investigate the excitonic properties of (4-FC6H4C2H4NH3)2PbI4 hybrid organic/inorganic thin films. We first use a standard point-by-point photoluminescence mapping. The maps formed using the photoluminescence intensity, line width, and broadening reveal the presence of structural defects. Using a statistical treatment of the data we found that the spatial fluctuations of the photoluminescence peak wavelengths are rather small compared to the photoluminescence line width. Moreover, we report the first direct observation of spatially resolved excitonic photoluminescence in this type of materials using dark-field imaging of white-light pumped photoluminescence. Owing to the rapid acquisition time of the dark-field images, their temperature dependence was studied, and the thermal behavior of the photoluminescence was investigated using this technique. We show that photoluminescence mapping combined with dark-field imaging and spectroscopy provides valuable information on the excitonic properties of hybrid organic/inorganic thin films.

We demonstrate a significant quantum efficiency enhancement of InGaN red micro-light-emitting diodes (μLEDs). The peak external quantum efficiency (EQE) of the packaged 80 × 80 μm2 InGaN red μLEDs was largely increased to 6.0% at 12 A/cm2, representing the significant process in exploring the efficiency of InGaN red μLEDs. The improvement of the EQE is attributed to the significant enhancement of the quantum efficiency, which is confirmed by the electron–hole wavefunction overlap in the InGaN quantum well from the band gap simulation and the photoluminescence intensity ratio at room temperature/low temperature. Ultrasmall 5 × 5 μm2 InGaN red μLEDs were also obtained, which show a high peak EQE of 4.5%. This work demonstrates a simple approach to achieving highly efficient InGaN red μLEDs, which are very promising candidates for ultrasmall red μLEDs required by AR/VR displays.

A new evaluation method for effective internal optical power (IOP) and internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is demonstrated. This method is based on the optical and thermal properties of LEDs. By using this proposed method, the effective IOP and the IQE of LEDs could be directly extracted from the measurements of external optical power (EOP) and junction temperature of LEDs. This method needs no assumption of the injection efficiency of carriers in the LEDs and no measurement-condition limitation of low current-injection level.
