BDMO-PPV is a photoluminescent semiconducting polymer related to others in the well-studied polyphenylene vinylene family such as MEH-PPV. These materials are known for their instability, degradation, and low efficiency in device operations. We report increased internal and external quantum yield in BDMO-PPV during continuous illumination photodegradation through variations in absorbance, scattering, reflectance, and transmittance of the BDMO-PPV solution. We propose the creation of a highly emissive intermediate photoluminescent state responsible for these increased quantum yields.

In this work, we demonstrate the formation of a red-phase poly[2-methoxy, 5-(2- ethyl-hexoxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene-PPV] (MEH-PPV) embedded into a host matrix of highly entangled ultra-high molecular weight polystyrene (MEH-PPV/UHMW PS pseudogel) th
at allows the simple processing of the MEH-PPV solutions. We processed a red-phase in the gel, the gel shows that the features what have beed demonstrated in the solution can be observed in the processable gel for optoelectronics applications.

We propose an experimentally accessible superconducting quantum circuit, consisting of two coplanar waveguide resonators (CWRs), to enhance the microwave squeezing via parametric down-conversion (PDC). In our scheme, the two CWRs are nonlinearly coup
led through a superconducting quantum interference device embedded in one of the CWRs. This is equivalent to replacing the transmission line in a flux-driven Josephson parametric amplifier (JPA) by a CWR, which makes it possible to drive the JPA by a quantized microwave field. Owing to this design, the PDC coefficient can be considerably increased to be about tens of megahertz, satisfying the strong-coupling condition. Using the Heisenberg-Langevin approach, we numerically show the enhancement of the microwave squeezing in our scheme. In contrast to the JPA, our proposed system becomes stable around the critical point and can generate stronger transient squeezing. In addition, the strong-coupling PDC can be used to engineer the photon blockade.
The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centre in diamond is a unique optical defect that is used in many applications today and methods to enhance its fluorescence brightness are highly sought after. We observed experimentally an enhancement of the NV quantum yie
ld by up to 7% in bulk diamond caused by an external magnetic field relative to the field-free case. This observation is rationalised phenomenologically in terms of a magnetic field dependence of the NV excited state triplet-to-singlet transition rate. The theoretical model is in good qualitative agreement with the experimental results at low excitation intensities. Our results significantly contribute to our fundamental understanding of the photophysical properties of the NV defect in diamond and may enable novel NV centre-based magnetometry techniques.
Control of chain length and morphology in combination with single-molecule spectroscopy techniques provide a comprehensive photophysical picture of excited-state losses in the prototypical conjugated polymer poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT). A universal
self-quenching mechanism is revealed, based on singlet-triplet exciton annihilation, which accounts for the dramatic loss in fluorescence quantum yield of a single P3HT chain between its solution (unfolded) and bulk-like (folded) state. Triplet excitons fundamentally limit the fluorescence of organic photovoltaic materials, which impacts on the conversion of singlet excitons to separated charge carriers, decreasing the efficiency of energy harvesting at high excitation densities. Interexcitonic interactions are so effective that a single P3HT chain of >100 kDa weight behaves like a two-level system, exhibiting perfect photon-antibunching.
In this research, the effect of Magnesium Fluoride (MgF2) Anti-Reflection (AR) layer was investigated in quantum dot sensitized solar cells (QDSCs). MgF2 nanoparticles with the dominant size of 20 nm were grown by a thermal evaporation method and a t
hin layer was formed on the front side of the fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate. In order to study the effect of the AR layer on the efficiency of solar cells, this substrate was utilized in CdS QDSCs. In this conventional structure of QDSC, TiO2 nanocrystals (NCs) were applied on the FTO substrate, and then it was sensitized with CdS quantum dots (QDs). According to the results, the QDSCs with MgF2 AR layer represented the maximum Power Conversion Efficiency (PCE) of 3%. This efficiency was increased by about 47% compared to the reference cell without the AR layer. The reason is attributed to the presence of the AR layer and the reduction of incident light reflected from the surface of the solar cell.
