Enhanced charge separation in g-C3N4–BiOI heterostructures for visible light ...Pawan Kumar
Heterojunctions of the low bandgap semiconductor bismuth oxyiodide (BiOI) with bulk multilayered
graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) and few layered graphitic carbon nitride sheets (g-C3N4-S) are
synthesized and investigated as an active photoanode material for sunlight driven water splitting. HRTEM and elemental mapping reveals formation of a unique heterostructure between BiOI platelets and
the carbon nitride (g-C3N4 and g-C3N4-S) network that consisted of dendritic BiOI nanoplates
surrounded by g-C3N4 sheets. The presence of BiOI in g-C3N4-S/BiOI and g-C3N4-S/BiOI
nanocomposites extends the visible light absorption profile from 500 nm up to 650 nm. Due to excellent
charge separation in g-C3N4/BiOI and g-C3N4-S/BiOI, evident from quenching of the carbon nitride
photoluminescence (PL) and a decrease in the PL lifetime, a significant increase in photoelectrochemical
performance is observed for both types of g-C3N4–BiOI heterojunctions. In comparison to
heterojunctions of bulk g-C3N4 with BiOI, the nanocomposite consisting of few layered sheets of gC3N4 and BiOI exhibits higher photocurrent density due to lower recombination in few layered sheets. A
synergistic trap passivation and charge separation is found to occur in the g-C3N4-S/BiOI
nanocomposite heterostructure which results in a higher photocurrent and a lower charge transfer
resistance.

The improvement of the color rendering index using convex-dual-layer remote p...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
White-light emitting diodes (WLEDs) are semiconductor light sources whose construction design is usually made up of a single pumping chip and a single light-conversion film of phosphor compound. The outstanding problem of this traditional setting is the inadequate chroma rendering index (CRI). Introducing a cluster of multiple blue chips with more than one phosphor layer is demonstrated to address that flaw of W-LEDs. This package is called the dual-film remote-phosphor multi-chip WLED. As a consequence, both the light brightness and the CRI are improved. However, for the maximum results, the test on the second layer of phosphor has been performed to continually alter the proportions and densities of phosphor within the silicone. The researchers employed a unique hue design to control the white-light light emitting diode (LED) module. When comparing the actual result to the simulated color coordinates under the hue standard of international commission on illumination (CIE) 1931, the highest difference is found to be around 0.0063 for correlated color temperatures (CCT) of 6600 K and 7700 K. Experiments indicate that the setting of multi-chip and dual-phosphorus is the optimal design for supporting CRI quality and luminous intensity.
N-doped graphene quantum dots (NGQDs) catalyze the efficient electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide into multi-carbon hydrocarbons and oxygenates such as ethylene, ethanol, and n-propanol. The NGQDs achieve high total faradaic efficiencies of up to 90% for carbon dioxide reduction, with selectivities for ethylene and ethanol conversions reaching 45%. Control experiments confirm the NGQDs are responsible for catalyzing the reaction. Compared to undoped graphene quantum dots, the NGQDs have higher activity and selectivity for producing valuable fuel and chemical products from carbon dioxide due to the presence of pyridinic nitrogen defects introduced during synthesis.

Thermoluminescence in Pure and Nd+3 + K+ Doped Lead Germanate Single CrystalsAI Publications
Pure lead germanate was grown by Zochralski’stechnique.Nd+3 + K+ doped lead germanate was grown for comparative studies. Thermoluminescence studies were conducted on pure lead germanate and Nd+3 + K+ doped lead germanate. Thermoluminescence in pure lead germanate single crystals (LG) and Nd+3 + K+ doped lead germanate single crystals (DDLG) has been measured in terms of photomultiplier output current on Thermoluminescence Set Up. Thermoluminescence studies of LG revealed an increasing trend of Thermoluminescence output, with increasing temperature and sharp consistent maxima at 50°C and 100°C. TL studies of DDLG revealed a decreasing trend of Thermoluminescence output, with increasing temperature and a sharp consistent peak at 100°C and 120°C. It was further noted that doping increased Thermoluminescence output. Thermoluminescence in ferroelectric lead germanate was attributed to change in polarization with change in temperature and creation of defect states.

Higher chromatic rendition with Cr3+ -doped yellow Y3Al5O12:Ce3+ for double-...IJECEIAES
This document summarizes research on developing a yellow-red phosphor material of Y3Al5O12:Ce3+,Cr3+ to enhance the color rendering of remote phosphor white LEDs. The material was produced through solid-state reaction of ingredients at high temperature. Adding Cr3+ ions enriched the red spectral region through energy transfer from Ce3+ ions. Measurements showed color rendering was improved from 63.2 to 77.9 with 0.008% Cr3+ doping. Simulation and testing of LEDs using this phosphor in a double-layer configuration demonstrated higher luminous flux and quantum efficiency compared to using Y3Al5O12:Ce3+ alone. The concentration of Cr3+
Electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (eCO2RR) is performed on two
intermetallic compounds formed by copper and gallium metals (CuGa2
and Cu9Ga4). Among them, CuGa2 selectively converts CO2 to methanol
with remarkable Faradaic efficiency of 77.26% at an extremely low potential of −0.3 V vs RHE. The high performance of CuGa2 compared to
Cu9Ga4 is driven by its unique 2D structure, which retains surface and
subsurface oxide species (Ga2O3) even in the reduction atmosphere. The
Ga2O3 species is mapped by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and
X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) techniques and electrochemical
measurements. The eCO2RR selectivity to methanol are decreased at
higher potential due to the lattice expansion caused by the reduction of
the Ga2O3, which is probed by in situ XAFS, quasi in situ powder X-ray
diffraction, and ex situ XPS measurements. The mechanism of the formation of methanol is visualized by in situ infrared (IR) spectroscopy and the
source of the carbon of methanol at the molecular level is confirmed from
the isotope-labeling experiments in presence of 13CO2. Finally, to minimize
the mass transport limitations and improve the overall eCO2RR performance, a poly(tetrafluoroethylene)-based gas diffusion electrode is used in
the flow cell configuration.

The results point the way forward for photochemically robust, noble metal free, visible light harvesting photoacatalysts based on nanostructured heterojunctions of graphenic frameworks with TiO2.
The document summarizes research on the electrochemical deposition of lead dioxide nanostructured thin films. Key findings include:
- Lead dioxide nanostructures were successfully deposited on gold-coated substrates by anodic electrochemical deposition using nitric acid and lead chloride as reactants. The morphology was influenced by deposition parameters like potential, temperature, and pH.
- Deposition at higher temperatures (60°C vs room temperature) resulted in faster growth rates and denser nanostructures, as seen by SEM images.

Hot hole transfer from Ag nanoparticles to multiferroic YMn2O5 nanowires enab...Pawan Kumar
Plasmonic hot carriers with a nonthermal distribution of kinetic energies have opened up new avenues in photovoltaics, photodetection and photocatalysis. While several articles have reported ultrafast hot electron injection from coinage metals into n-type semiconductors across Schottky barriers and efficient subsequent utilization of injected hot electrons, reports of hot hole harvesting are comparatively rare due to the difficulty in forming Schottky junctions between p-type semiconductors and high work function metals. In this communication, we report the fabrication, characterization and theoretical calculations of a novel integrated multiferroic-plasmonic system comprising YMn2O5 nanowires decorated on their surface with Ag nanoparticles (NPs). A Schottky barrier for holes exists at the YMn2O5-Ag hetero-interface and hot holes were injected from Ag across this barrier. The synthesized hybrid along with bare Ag NPs were tested for Raman surface photocatalytic reduction of 4-NBT (4-nitrobenzenethiol) to DMAB (p, p′-dimercaptoazobenzene) where the composite demonstrated superior activity compared to the bare metal. Ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) revealed a significantly reduced work function of the composite compared to the pristine Ag, indicative of more energetic hot electrons on the surface of the composite required for efficient photoreduction. Density functional theory (DFT)-based calculations revealed localization of molecular orbitals supportive of a possible hole transfer from YMn2O5 to Ag and a reorganization of electronic states beneficial for plasmon-induced charge carrier enhancement. DFT results also indicated a purely electronic contribution to the ferroelectric polarization of YMn2O5 over and above the ionic contribution, which originated from the magnetic polarization of O 2p states.

White light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) with quantum dots (QDs) and phosphor have pulled in huge consideration because of their incredible shading rendering capacity. In the bundling procedure, a QDs film and a phosphor silicone layer will in general be isolated for lessening the reabsorption misfortunes and keeping the QDs surface molecules in a good condition. This examination explored the bundling succession of QDs and phosphor layers to the optical and warm exhibitions of WLEDs. The emitted optical power and PL spectra were estimated and dissected, while an infrared warm imager was utilized to reenact and approve tentatively the temperature fields. The results reveal that at 60 mA, WLEDs with green QDs-on-phosphor type accomplished lumen output (LO) of 1578 lm, with shading rendering record (CRI) of Ra = 60, while the red QDs-on-phosphor type WLEDs exhibited lower LO of 1000 lm, with Ra = 82. In addition, the QDs-onphosphor type WLEDs generated less warmth than the other, and as a result, the most noteworthy temperature in this packaged type was lower than the other. Additionally, its temperature contrast can arrive at 12.3°C. Along these lines, regarding bundling arrangement, the QDs-on-phosphor type is an ideal bundling design to better the optical productivity and shading rendering capacity, as well as lower gadget temperature.

Band edge engineering of composite photoanodes for dye sensitized solar cellsvenkatamanthina
This document discusses engineering the band edges of composite photoanodes for dye-sensitized solar cells through doping. Specifically, it doped ZnO nanorods with cobalt to lower its conduction band minimum and doped TiO2 nanoparticles with zirconium to raise its conduction band minimum in order to overcome an energy barrier preventing electron transfer. Characterization with diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and open circuit voltage measurements under illumination confirmed the doping shifted the band edges as intended. However, dye-sensitized solar cells fabricated with the composite nanostructures did not show improved performance. The paper details a methodology for producing and measuring band edge shifts but notes limitations in applying it to improve device operation.

Bulk Heterojunction versus Diffused Bilayer: The Role of Device Geometry in Solution p-Doped Polymer-Based Solar Cells
Anna Loiudice, Aurora Rizzo, Mariano Biasiucci, and Giuseppe Gigli
J. Phys. Chem. Lett., 2012, 3 (14), pp 1908–1915
We exploit the effect of molecular p-type doping of P3HT in diffused bilayer (DB) polymer solar cells. In this alternative device geometry, the p-doping is accomplished in solution by blending the F4-TCNQ with P3HT. The p-doping both increases the film conductivity and reduces the potential barrier at the interface with the electrode. This results in an excellent power conversion efficiency of 4.02%, which is an improvement of 48% over the p-doped standard bulk heterojunction (BHJ) device. Combined VOC–light intensity dependence measurements and Kelvin probe force microscopy reveal that the DB device configuration is particularly advantageous, if compared to the conventional BHJ, because it enables optimization of the donor and acceptor layers independently to minimize the effect of trapping and to fully exploit the improved transport properties.

Ag@SiO2 Core–Shell Nanostructures: Distance-Dependent Plasmon Coupling and SERS Investigation J. Phys. Chem. Lett., 2012, 3 (11), pp 1459–1464
Enhancement of Raman signals of pyrene due to the enhanced electric fields on the surface of silver nanoparticles has been investigated by controlling the thickness of the silica shell. Dimeric nanostructures having well-defined gaps between two silver nanoparticles were prepared, and the gap size (d) was varied from 1.5 to 40 nm. The molecules trapped at the dimeric junctions showed higher Raman signal enhancements when the gap was less than 15 nm due to the presence of amplified electric field, in agreement with our theoretical studies. The experimental Raman enhancement factors at the hot spots follow a 1/dn dependence, with n = 1.5, in agreement with the recent theoretical studies by Schatz and co-workers. Experimental results presented here on the distance dependence of surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) enhancement at the hot spots can provide insight on the design of newer plasmonic nanostructures with optimal nanogaps.

The Effect of the π-Electron Delocalization Curvature on the Two-Photon Circular Dichroism of Molecules with Axial Chirality
Herein we report on the theoretical-experimental study of the effect of curvature of the π-electron delocalization on the two-photon circular dichroism (TPCD) of a family of optically active biaryl derivatives (S-BINOL, S-VANOL, and S-VAPOL). The comparative analysis of the influence of the different transition moments to their corresponding TPCD rotatory strength reveals an enhanced contribution of the magnetic transition dipole moment on VAPOL. This effect is hereby attributed to the additional twist in the π–electron delocalization on this compound. TPCD measurements were done using the double L-scan technique in the picosecond regime. Theoretical calculations were completed using modern analytical response theory, within a time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) approach, at both, B3LYP and CAM-B3LYP levels, with the aug-cc-pVDZ basis set for S-BINOL and S-VANOL, and 6-31G* for S-VAPOL. Solvent effects were included by means of the polarizable continuum model (PCM) in CH2Cl2.

Atomically Resolved Site-Isolated Catalyst on MgO: Mononuclear Osmium Dicarbonyls formed from Os3(CO)12
Abstract: Supported triosmium clusters, formed from Os3(CO)12 on MgO, were treated in helium at 548 K for 2 h, causing fragmentation of the cluster frame and the formation of mononuclear osmium dicarbonyls. The cluster breakup and the resultant fragmented species were characterized by infrared and X-ray absorption spectroscopies, and the fragmented species were imaged by scanning transmission electron microscopy. The spectra identify the surface osmium complexes as Os(CO)2{Osupport}n (n = 3 or 4) (where the braces denote support surface atoms). The images show site-isolated Os atoms in mononuclear osmium species on MgO. The intensity analysis on the images of the MgO(110) face showed that the Os atoms were located atop Mg columns. This information led to a model of the Os(CO)2 on MgO(110), with the distances approximated as those determined by EXAFS spectroscopy, which are an average over the whole MgO surface; the results imply that these complexes were located at Mg vacancies.

2. Motivations
Exploring new p-type semiconductor nanoparticles alternative to the
commonly used NiO is crucial for p-type dye-sensitized solar cells (p-
DSSCs) to achieve higher open-circuit voltages (Voc).
Delafossite CuGaO2 has a lower valence band maximum(VBM)
compared to NiO and therefore could provide a larger Voc in p-DSSCs.
In contrast to the dark colored NiO, the CuGaO2 nanoplates are white
because of the large band-gap. Therefore, the porous films made of these
nanoplates barely compete with the dye sensitizers for visible light
absorption.
