Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals materials have attracted tremendous attention due to their versatile physical properties and flexible manipulation approaches. Among the various types of van der Waals materials, is remarkable for its intrinsic 2D ferroelectricity and high-performance opto-electronic properties. However, the study of the system in terahertz (THz) radiation is scarce, although it is promising for electrically controlled THz field manipulation. We investigate the in different thicknesses and report that the THz generation efficiency induced by femtosecond laser pulses can be largely improved by reducing the thickness from the bulk. Furthermore, we reveal the surge current in thin film coupled with THz emission exhibits a different Auger recombination mode, which is helpful in understanding the mechanism and provides insights into the design of 2D highly efficient THz devices.

Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have intriguing physic properties and offer an exciting platform to explore many features that are important for future devices. In this work, we synthesized monolayer WS2 as an example to study the optical response with hydrostatic pressure. The Raman results show a continuous tuning of the lattice vibrations that is induced by hydrostatic pressure. We further demonstrate an efficient pressure-induced change of the band structure and carrier dynamics via transient absorption measurements. We found that two time constants can be attributed to the capture process of two kinds of defect states, with the pressure increasing from 0.55 GPa to 2.91 GPa, both of capture processes were accelerated, and there is an inflection point within the pressure range of 1.56 GPa to 1.89 GPa. Our findings provide valuable information for the design of future optoelectronic devices.

利用多维度的泵浦探测技术来研究Fe掺杂氮化镓(GaN∶Fe)晶体的超快瞬态非线性光学响应和基于Fe缺陷的宽带载流子动力学机制。相位物体(PO)泵浦探测实验结果表明,载流子折射动力学曲线相较于吸收表现出明显的回复,结合超快瞬态吸收光谱实验证明这源于Fe缺陷态的宽带吸收。此外,瞬态吸收响应与载流子俘获速率均可通过Fe含量进行大幅调控,吸收幅值和载流子俘获寿命分别随着Fe含量的增加而增大和缩短。根据瞬态光学非线性结果,提出了基于Fe缺陷不同电荷态下的激发与俘获模型,结合全局分析和速率方程获得了GaN∶Fe的载流子俘获机理与重要的Fe缺陷俘获速率和光吸收截面。GaN∶Fe中可调控的载流子寿命和超宽带的吸收光谱对光开关、光限幅器件、光电探测器等光电器件的设计和开发有着十分重要的意义。

Despite that organic-inorganic lead halide perovskites have attracted enormous scientific attention for energy conversion applications over the recent years, the influence of temperature and the type of the employed hole transport layer (HTL) on the charge carrier dynamics and recombination processes in perovskite photovoltaic devices is still largely unexplored. In particular, significant knowledge is missing on how these crucial parameters for radiative and non-radiative recombinations, as well as for efficient charge extraction vary among different perovskite crystalline phases that are induced by temperature variation. Herein, we perform micro photoluminescence (μPL) and ultrafast time resolved transient absorption spectroscopy (TAS) in Glass/Perovskite and two different Glass/ITO/HTL/Perovskite configurations at temperatures below room temperature, in order to probe the charge carrier dynamics of different perovskite crystalline phases, while considering also the effect of the employed HTL polymer. Namely, CH3NH3PbI3 films were deposited on Glass, PEDOT:PSS and PTAA polymers, and the developed Glass/CH3NH3PbI3 and Glass/ITO/HTL/CH3NH3PbI3 architectures were studied from 85 K up to 215 K in order to explore the charge extraction dynamics of the CH3NH3PbI3 orthorhombic and tetragonal crystalline phases. It is observed an unusual blueshift of the bandgap with temperature and the dual emission at temperature below of 100 K and also, that the charge carrier dynamics, as expressed by hole injection times and free carrier recombination rates, are strongly depended on the actual pervoskite crystal phase, as well as, from the selected hole transport material.Despite that organic-inorganic lead halide perovskites have attracted enormous scientific attention for energy conversion applications over the recent years, the influence of temperature and the type of the employed hole transport layer (HTL) on the charge carrier dynamics and recombination processes in perovskite photovoltaic devices is still largely unexplored.

利用带间激发的超快瞬态吸收光谱,研究了导电(n型)氮(N)掺杂和半绝缘(SI)钒(V)掺杂6H-SiC晶片的超快载流子复合动力学过程。N杂质和/或固有缺陷的间接复合主导了n型6H-SiC的载流子弛豫,其寿命超过了10 ns。与n型6H-SiC相比,V掺杂对SI-6H-SiC的瞬态吸收具有显著的调制作用,这源于由V深能级的载流子俘获引起的一个额外的载流复合过程。载流子俘获(寿命约为160 ps)比间接复合快2个数量级以上。通过简化能级模型并进行全局分析,研究了6H-SiC的载流子复合机制,准确地获得了6H-SiC的载流子寿命。
