Lead-free piezoelectric ceramic materials have received extensive attention due to their potential application in new optoelectronic devices. The outstanding advantages of lead-free piezoelectric materials are nontoxicity and environmental-friendliness. Photoluminescence is one of the important properties of ceramics. This property is widely used in printing, testing materials, medical and other technologies. At the same time, materials with up-conversion luminescence can also be used to detect infrared light. Here, we had made [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] co-doped [Formula: see text] (NBT) ceramics. Photoluminescence properties of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] co-doped NBT were studied. The structure of the doped ceramics was characterized by the X-ray diffraction pattern which shows that the doping had little effect on the ceramic structure. Studies on luminescent spectra show that [Formula: see text] has an inhibitory effect on the up-conversion luminescence of [Formula: see text], and a certain concentration of [Formula: see text] promotes the luminescence of [Formula: see text] in the mid-infrared region. Intensity of the up-conversion luminescence was substantially linear with the power of the excitation source. These findings are expected to improve the performance of the NBT-based optoelectronic devices.

ABSTRACTThe motivation and distinct approach for this work is the use of intraband transitions within colloidal quantum dots for the detection of mid- (3-5 μm) and/or long-wave (8-14 μm) infrared light. The CdSe colloidal quantum dot/MEH-PPV conducting polymer nanocomposite material is well-suited for this application due to the ∼1.5 eV difference between the corresponding electron affinities. Therefore, CdSe colloidal quantum dots embedded in MEH-PPV should provide electron quantum confinement such that intraband transitions can occur in the conduction band. Further, it is desirable to deposit these nanocomposites on semiconductor substrates to enable charge transfer of photogenerated electron-hole pairs from the substrate to the nanocomposite. In this way, optoelectronic devices analogous to those achieved using Stranski-Krastanow quantum dots grown by epitaxy can be realized. To date, there have been relatively few investigations of colloidal quantum dot nanocomposites deposited on GaAs substrates. However, it is crucial to develop a better understanding of the optical properties of these hybrid material systems if such heterostructures are to be used for optoelectronic devices, such as infrared photodetectors. By depositing the nanocomposites on GaAs substrates featuring different doping characteristics and measuring the corresponding Fourier transform infrared absorbance, the feasibility of these intraband transitions is demonstrated at room temperature.

Langasite (La3Ga5SiO14: denoted by LGS) single crystal is one of the lead free piezoelectric materials with high piezoelectricity that is maintained up to its melting point (1470°C). Although LGS single crystals have usually been grown by Czochralski (CZ) method in oxygen contained atmosphere to prevent evaporation of Ga, they were grown by the vertical Bridgman (VB) method in Ar atmosphere without oxygen, and their properties were evaluated in this work. Transparent and colorless LGS single crystals were successfully obtained without Ga evaporation by the VB method in Ar atmosphere, and their resistivity at room temperature was much higher than that grown by conventional CZ method. Piezoelectric constant d11 of the crystal grown by the VB method was 6 x 10-12 C/N, which was close to that of the crystal grown by CZ method. The colorless transparent LGS single crystal turned to orange and its resistivity decreased by annealing in air. Since an orange-colored transparent LGS single crystal has been grown by conventional CZ method, this indicates that color change and the resistivity decrease of LGS crystal is caused by extra interstitial oxygen atoms in the crystal.

In this research, optoelectronic devices consisted of an infrared light emitting diode and a phototransistor with no special handling or third party-packaging were irradiated to ionizing radiation utilizing x-rays. It was found that the devices under test (DUTs) undergo performance degradation in their functional parameters during exposure to x-rays. These damaging effects are depending on their current drives and also the Total Ionizing Dose (TID) absorbed. The TID effects by x-rays are cumulative and gradually take place throughout the lifecycle of the devices exposed to radiation.

Pure and Sn/Ni co–doped TiO2 nanomaterials with anatase/rutile mixed crystal were prepared and characterized. The results show that pure TiO2 is a mixed crystal structure composed of a large amount of anatase and a small amount of rutile. Sn doping promotes the phase transformation from anatase to rutile, while Ni doping inhibits the transformation. Both single doping and co–doping are beneficial to the inhibition of photoinduced charge recombination. Sn doping shows the best inhibitory effect on photogenerated charge recombination, and increases the utilization of visible light, displaying the highest photocatalytic activity. The decolorization degree of methylene blue (MB) by Sn–TiO2 is 79.5% after 150 min. The reaction rate constant of Sn–TiO2 is 0.01022 min−1, which is 5.6 times higher than pure TiO2 (0.00181 min–1).
