Surface ligand exchange on all-inorganic perovskite nanocrystals of composition CsPbBrI$_{2}$ reveals improved optoelectronic properties due to strong interactions of the nanocrystal with mono-functionalized porphyrin derivatives. The interaction is verified experimentally with an array of spectroscopic measurements as well as computationally by exploiting density functional theory calculations. The enhanced current efficiency is attributed to a lowering of the charging energy by a factor of 2 to 3, which is determined by combining electronic and optical measurements on a selection of ligands. The coupled organic-inorganic nanostructures are successfully deployed in a light emitting device with higher current efficacy and improved charge carrier balance, magnifying the efficiency almost fivefold compared to the native ligand.

The understanding of depletion layers is of major importance to control the optical and electronic properties of metal oxide (MO) nanocrystals (NCs). Here, we show that depletion layer engineering is the main mechanism of photodoping of MO NCs. We sh ow that the introduction of different electronic interfaces induces a double-bending of the electronic bands and a distinct carrier density profile. We found that the light-induced depletion layer modulation and bending of the bands close to the surface of the nanocrystal is the main mechanism responsible for the storage of extra electrons after photodoping in MO NCs. We support our results by a combined experimental and theoretical approach in the case of Sn:In2O3/In2O3 core-shell NCs, in which we compare numerical simulations with empirical modeling and experiments. This allows not only to extract the main mechanism of photodoping in MO NCs but also to engineer the charge storage capability of MO NCs after photodoping. Our results are transferable to other core-multishell systems, opening up a novel direction to control the optoelectronic properties of nanoscale MOs by designing their energetic band profiles through depletion layer engineering.
Phosphorene, the 2D material derived from black phosphorus, has recently attracted a lot of interest for its properties, suitable for applications in material science. In particular, the physical features and the prominent chemical reactivity on its surface render this nanolayered substrate particularly promising for electrical and optoelectronic applications. In addition, being a new potential ligand for metals, it opens the way for a new role of the inorganic chemistry in the 2D world, with special reference to the field of catalysis. The aim of this review is to summarize the state of the art in this subject and to present our most recent results in preparation, functionalization and use of phosphorene and its decorated derivatives. In particular, we discuss several key points, which are currently under investigation: the synthesis, the characterization by theoretical calculations, the high pressure behaviour of black phosphorus, as well as decoration with nanoparticles and encapsulation in polymers. Finally, device fabrication and electrical transport measurements are overviewed on the basis of recent literature and new results collected in our laboratories.

A data acquisition system is described that is designed to stabilize cooling and probe rates to maximize detection sensitivity and minimize possible systematic errors due to correlations between drifting experimental conditions and varying drive para meters. Experimental parameters that affect the Yb171 5D3/2 hyperfine state preparation and detection efficiency are characterized and optimized. A set of wait times for optimal sampling of the D3/2(F=2) lifetime is chosen and used to measure that lifetime with high statistical sensitivity. A systematic variation in this lifetime seems to be apparent. The source of the variation was not identified, but ion number and cooling rate appear to be ruled out. A net determination is made of tau=61.8ms+-(0.6)_stat+-(6.4)_sys which is significantly longer than other measurements of the same quantity. An alternate shelving scheme is proposed that would provide S-D state discrimination for Yb even isotopes as well as improved sensitivity for D state hyperfine discrimination in odd isotopes.
We report the synthesis and optical characterization of fully inorganic gradientshell CdSe/CdZnS nanocrystals (NCs) with high luminescence quantum yield (QY, 50 percent), which were obtained by replacing native oleic-acid (OA) ligands with halide ion s (Br and Cl). Absorption, photoluminescence excitation (PLE) and photoluminescence (PL) spectra in solution were unaffected by the ligand-exchange procedure. The halide-capped NCs were stable in solution for several weeks without modification of their PL spectra; once deposited as unprotected thin films and exposed to air, however, they did show signs of aging which we attribute to increasing heterogeneity of (effective) NC size. Time-resolved PL measurements point to the existence of four distinct emissive states, which we attribute to neutral, singlycharged and multi-excitonic entities. We found that the relative contribution of these four components to the overall PL decay is modified by the OA-to-halide ligand exchange, while the excited-state lifetimes themselves, surprisingly, remain largley unaffected. The high PL quantum yield of the halide-capped NCs allowed observation of single particle blinking and photon-antibunching; one surprising result was that aging processes that occurs during the first few days after deposition on glass seemed to offer a certain increased protection against photobleaching. These results suggest that halide-capped CdSe/CdZnS NCs are promising candidates for incorporation into opto-electronic devices, based on, for example, hybrid perovskite matrices, which require eliminating the steric hindrance and electronic barrier of bulky organic ligands to ensure efficient coupling.
Silicon dioxide (SiO$_2$) is expected to occur in the atmospheres of hot rocky super-Earth exoplanets but a lack of spectroscopic data is hampering its possible detection. Here, we present the first, comprehensive molecular line list for SiO$_2$. The line list, named OYT3, covers the wavenumber range 0,--,6000~cm$^{-1}$ (wavelengths $lambda > 1.67$~$mu$m) and is suitable for temperatures up to $T=3000$~K. Almost 33 billion transitions involving 5.69 million rotation-vibration states with rotational excitation up to $J=255$ have been computed using robust first-principles methodologies. The OYT3 line list is available from the ExoMol database at http://www.exomol.com.
