Highly Polarized and Self-Waveguided Emission from Single-Crystalline Organic Nanobelts
نویسندگان
چکیده
Well-defined single-crystalline nanobelts with strong fluorescence were fabricated from a perylene tetracarboxylic diimide molecule modified with specific side-chains that afford flip-flap stacking, rather than the common translated stacking, between the molecules along the long axis of the nanobelt. The nanobelts thus fabricated possess highly polarized, self-waveguided emission, making them ideal candidates for application in nanolasers and other angle-dependent optical nanodevices.

Linearly polarized emission of an organic semiconductor nanobelt.
Linearly polarized emission has been observed for the nanobelts fabricated from a perylene diimide molecule through both solution-based and surface-supported self-assembling. The measurement of polarized emission was performed over single nanobelts with use of a near-field scanning optical microscope (NSOM) adapted with emission polarization (by putting a planar polarizer before the detector). ...

We have successfully fabricated single-crystalline CdSe nanowires, nanobelts, and sheets by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method assisted with laser ablation. The synthesized CdSe nanostructures have hexagonal wurtzite phase as characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). CdSe nanobelts can range in length from several tens to a hundred micrometers, in thickness from 40 to 70 nm, and a tapered...

Nanobelt structures have been fabricated for an n-type semiconductor molecule, N,N'-di(propoxyethyl)perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic diimide (PTCDI). The short alkyloxy side chain not only affords effective pi-pi stacking in polar solvents for self-assembling but also provides sufficient solubility in nonpolar solvents for solution processing. As revealed by both AFM and electron microscopies,...

Controlled phase transformation involving biomolecular organization to generate dynamic biomimetic self-assembly systems and functional materials is currently an appealing topic of research on molecular materials. Herein, we achieve by ultrasonic irradiation the direct solid-solid transition of bioinspired dipeptide organization from triclinic structured aggregates to nanofibers and eventually...
متن کاملExperiment and Modeling of Conversion of Substrate-Waveguided Modes to Surface-Emitted Light by Substrate Patterning
To predict the optical power that could be harvested from light emission that is waveguided in the substrate of organic light emitting devices (OLEDs), a quantitative quantum mechanical model of the light emitted into the waveguided modes has been developed. The model was used to compute the exact distribution of energy in external, substrate and ITO/organic modes as a function of the distance ...
