Article Abstract
We report on the optical properties of a CsPbBr polycrystalline thin film on a single grain level. A sample composed of isolated nanocrystals (NCs) mimicking the properties of the polycrystalline thin film grains that can be individually probed by photoluminescence spectroscopy was prepared. These NCs were analyzed using correlative microscopy allowing the examination of structural, chemical, and optical properties from identical sites. Our results show that the stoichiometry of the CsPbBr NCs is uniform and independent of the NCs' morphology. The photoluminescence (PL) peak emission wavelength is slightly dependent on the dimensions of NCs, with a blue shift up to 9 nm for the smallest analyzed NCs. The magnitude of the blueshift is smaller than the emission line width, thus detectable only by high-resolution PL mapping. By comparing the emission energies obtained from the experiment and a rigorous effective mass model, we can fully attribute the observed variations to the size-dependent quantum confinement effect.

Multibit/analog artificial synapses are in demand for neuromorphic computing systems. A problem hindering the utilization of memristive artificial synapses in commercial neuromorphic systems is the rigidity of their functional parameters, plasticity in particular. Here, we report fabricating polycrystalline rutile-based memristive memory segments with Ti/poly-TiO/Ti structures featuring multibit/analog storage and the first use of a tunable DC-biasing for synaptic plasticity adjustment from short- to long-term.

Laser ablation was used to successfully fabricate multiferroic bilayer thin films, composed of BaTiO (BTO) and CoFeO (CFO), on highly doped (100) Si substrates. This study investigates the influence of BaTiO layer thickness (50-220 nm) on the films' structural, magnetic, and dielectric properties. The dense, polycrystalline films exhibited a tetragonal BaTiO phase and a cubic spinel CoFeO layer.

Achieving deep-blue light with high color saturation remains a critical challenge in the development of white light-emitting diode (LED) technology, necessitating luminescent materials that excel in efficiency, low toxicity, and stability. Here, we report the synthesis of [N(CH)]CuI (TEACuI) single crystals (SCs), which exhibit deep-blue photoluminescence (PL) at 450 nm. These crystals are characterized by a significant Stokes shift of 180 nm, a long lifetime of 1.

The synthesis and thermal properties of a volatile dimethylgold(III) complex MeAuSSP(OPr) are reported. Unlike most other volatile Au(I) and Au(III) compounds, the complex is stable upon storage, does not require any special handling conditions, and exhibits both good volatility and thermal stability. The compound was tested as a CVD and ALD precursor, yielding good quality films in both processes.

The formation of excited dimer states, so called excimers, is an important phenomenon in many organic molecular semiconductor solid state aggregates. In contrast to Frenkel exciton-polarons, an excimer is long-lived and energetically low-lying due to stabilization resulting from a substantial reorganization of the intermolecular geometry. Here, we show that ultrafast electron diffraction can follow the dynamics of solid-state excimer formation in polycrystalline thin films of a molecular semiconductor, revealing both the key reaction modes and the eventual structure of the emitting state.
