Published: April 2004

The effects of fiber coupling and fiber length on photocurrent fluctuations are studied when the light of a laser diode transmitted to and from a dynamic turbid medium by a step-index multimode fiber is studied. When the laser light is coupled asymmetrically, filling only the higher-order modes, the photocurrent fluctuations are suppressed significantly when fiber lengths of as much as 16 m are added between the laser and the medium. Addition of as much as 16 m of detection fiber, or any fiber in the case of symmetric light coupling, leads to much less or no suppression of the photocurrent fluctuations.

A novel dual-mode electrochemiluminescence (ECL)/photoelectrochemistry (PEC) biosensor was developed for sensitive serotonin detection. In this system, the PEC signal was produced by CdS quantum dots (QDs), while the ECL signal originated from L-Au NPs (luminol decorated Au nanoparticles), thereby avoiding the external interference and signal fluctuations that typically arose from using the same materials for both signals. The presence of target serotonin initiated the non-enzymatic toehold-mediated strand displacement reaction (TSDR) on magnetic bead (MB), which was followed by catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) on the sensing interface, leading to the aggregation of many L-Au NPs.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the spectroscopy of shallow donors in a CdTe/(Cd, Mg)Te structure, which helps test theoretical semiconductor models.
  • Measurements were taken at low temperatures (4.2 K) and under strong magnetic fields, focusing on the photocurrent generated by far-infrared photons.
  • The observed spectra show unexpected behaviors that don’t match traditional theories, leading to a new model that combines electrostatic fluctuations and magnetic field effects on electron localization.

The solar-driven photoelectrochemical desalination (SD-PED) technology, as a new emerging desalination technique, has been developed and attracted the increasing attention. However, practical application remains hampered by several constraints, including the rapid deterioration of photocurrent, and the long-term stability of system. In this research, MOF-derived nitrogen-doped carbon@CoO/BVO (CoO@NC/BVO) heterostructured photoanode was design for efficient and durable solar driven redox desalination.

Two-dimensional (2D) magnetic semiconductors offer an intriguing platform for investigating magneto-optoelectronic properties and hold immense potential in developing prospective devices when they are combined with valley electronic materials like 2D transition-metal dichalcogenides. Herein, we report various magneto-optoelectronic response features of the vertical hBN-FLG-CrI-WSe-FLG-hBN van der Waals heterostructure. Through a sensible layout and exquisite manipulation, an hBN-FLG-CrI-FLG-hBN heterostructure was also fabricated on identical CrI and FLGs for better comparison.
