Published: June 2015

Synthesis, spectral properties and photoinduced nonlinear optical effects of chromium-doped BiB3O6 glass are studied in the present paper. Absorption, excitation and time resolved luminescence spectra are presented and luminescence decay behavior is discussed. Detailed analysis of the obtained spectra (assignment of the most prominent spectral features in terms of the corresponding Cr(3+) energy levels, crystal field strength Dq, Racah parameters B and C) was performed. A weak photostimulated second harmonic generation signal was found to increase drastically due to poling by proton implantation in the investigated sample.

Non-centrosymmetric (NCS) compounds can exhibit many symmetry-dependent functional properties, yet their rational structure design remains a great challenge. Herein, a strategy to introduce F-centered octahedra to construct a perovskite-type framework filled by π-conjugated [BO] dimers is proposed to obtain NCS compounds. The first examples of antiperovskite or double antiperovskite borate fluorides, [(M/Ba)Ca]F[BO] (M = K, Rb) and [CsBaCa]F[BO], have been successfully designed and synthesized.

Finding novel efficient nonlinear optical materials with large second-order nonlinearity for the UV spectral range remains a formidable challenge, especially for silicate systems. Using a high-temperature solid reaction in a tight vacuum environment, two ultraviolet nonlinear optical materials with a moderate second harmonic generation (SHG) response have been created: PbSiOC and PbCaSiO. The SHG values they computed are roughly 2.

Background: While Alzheimer Disease (AD) patients' difficulty to recognize face identity (Werheid & Clare, 2007) has been mainly attributed to episodic and semantic memory impairments, these patients can also show abnormal difficulties at matching of unfamiliar faces for their identity, suggesting impaired perceptual function (Lavallée et al., 2016). However, since this latter evidence is based on explicit behavioural measures, the difficulties of AD patients can be due to many factors (e.

Organic-inorganic hybrid lead halides have been extensively studied due to their outstanding physical properties and diverse compositional elements. However, environmentally benign tin-based hybrids with remarkable flexibility in bandgap engineering have been less investigated. Herein, we report the successful design and synthesis of three tin-based organic-inorganic hybrid compounds through precise molecular modification: [Me(i-Pr)N][SnBr] (), [MeCHCl(i-Pr)N][SnBr] (), and [MeCHBr(i-Pr-Br)N][SnBr] ().

Moiré superlattices, created by stacking different van der Waals materials at twist angles, have emerged as a versatile platform for exploring intriguing phenomena such as topological properties, superconductivity, the quantum anomalous Hall effect, and the unconventional Stark effect. Additionally, the formation of moiré superlattice potential can generate spontaneous symmetry breaking, leading to an anisotropic optical response and electronic transport behavior. Herein, we propose a two-step chemical vapor deposition (CVD) strategy for synthesizing WS/SbS moiré superlattices.
