We report a fiber optic photoluminescence (PL) measurement system using a novel hybrid probe composed of a series of single mode fiber (SMF) and double-clad fiber (DCF) terminated with a coreless silica fiber (CSF) segment and glass micro-lens formed on its cleaved-facet. The fiber probe provided a good guidance and focusing capability for the excitation photon with a focal length of 125 μm and a beam diameter of 13.6 μm. Utilizing a special DCF-to-DCF coupling scheme, the photoluminescence signals were efficiently collected and delivered to a photodetector with a low loss. Utilizing the proposed system, PL morphology was investigated over a 200 × 200 μm(2) area for two types of InGaN/GaN blue light emitting diode (LED) epi-wafers grown on 1) an un-patterned sapphire substrate (UPSS), and 2) a patterned sapphire substrate (PSS). The uniformity in the relative PL intensity and the spectral uniformity in terms of the peak PL wavelength were experimentally compared and analyzed.

The photoluminescence (PL) and Raman spectra of the CsZrCl crystal over a wide range of pressures were studied in this work for the first time. PL measurements were performed up to 10 GPa, while the Raman spectra were measured up to 20 GPa. The PL data revealed a linear blue shift of the emission maximum from about 2.

A novel dual-mode detection method for microRNA-21 was developed. Photoluminescent (PL) and multiphonon resonant Raman scattering (MRRS) techniques were combined by using ZnTe nanoparticles as signal probes for reliable detection. The catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) strategy was integrated with superparamagnetic FeO nanoparticle clusters (NCs) to enhance sensitivity.

Nanoscale Fourier transform infrared (Nano-FTIR) imaging and spectroscopy correlated with photoluminescence measurements of lunar Apollo samples with different surface radiation exposure histories reveal distinct physical and chemical differences associated with space weathering effects. Analysis of two sample fragments: an ilmenite basalt (12016) and an impact melt breccia (15445) show evidence of intrinsic or delivered Nd and an amorphous silica glass component on exterior surfaces, whereas intrinsic Cr and/or trapped electron states are limited to interior surfaces. Spatially localized 1050 cm/935 cm band ratios in Nano-FTIR hyperspectral maps may further reflect impact-induced shock nanostructures, while shifts in silicate band positions indicate accumulated radiation damage at the nanoscale from prolonged space weathering due to micrometeorites, solar wind, energetic x-rays and cosmic ray bombardment.

In this work, the sensing ability and the underlying reaction pathways of HS adsorption on two nanomaterial systems, pristine zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires (NWs) and gold functionalized zinc oxide nanowires (Au@ZnO NWs), were explored in a side-by-side comparison of optical and electrical gas sensing. The properties of optical sensing were analyzed by photoluminescence intensity-over-time measurements (-) of as-grown ZnO NW samples, and the electrical gas-sensing properties were analyzed by current-over-time measurements (-) of ZnO NW chemically sensitive field-effect transistor (ChemFET) structures with a gas-sensitive open gate. The ZnO NWs were grown by high-temperature chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and thereafter surface-functionalized with a thin Au nanoparticle layer by magnetron sputtering.

A novel metal-organic framework (MOF), (Cu-S)MOF, with a copper-sulfur planar structure was applied to photocatalytic H production application. (Cu-S)MOF@ZnS nanocomposite was synthesized using a microwave-assisted hydrothermal approach. The formation of (Cu-S)MOF and wurtzite ZnS in the composite nanoparticles was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM).
