Electrochemiluminescence Of A Di-Boron Complex, Perovskite And Carbon Quantum Dots, Jonathan M. Wong Dec 2020

Electrochemiluminescence Of A Di-Boron Complex, Perovskite And Carbon Quantum Dots, Jonathan M. Wong

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

The electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of three novel materials was explored in this thesis. A di-boron complex exhibiting crystallization-induced blue shift emission was detected utilizing photoluminescence. This phenomenon was successfully observed in the annihilation pathway, resulting in crystallization-induced blue shift ECL. The effects of coreactant and crystallization-induced enhancements were distinguished utilizing two testing systems. Undoped and Mn-doped CsPbCl3 perovskites were investigated, as the latter exhibits a dual emissive photoluminescence pathway due to host and dopant emission mechanics. It was discovered that the electrochemiluminescence of Mn-doped CsPbCl3 proceeds through a triplet-triplet annihilation pathway. Furthermore, the relaxation of the electrochemically generated Mn-doped …

Chemistry Publications

Crystallization-induced emission enhancement (CIEE) was demonstrated for the first time for electrochemilunimescence (ECL) with two new benzosiloles. Compared with their solution, the films of the two benzosiloles gave CIEE of 24 times and 16 times. The mechanism of the CIEE-ECL was examined by spooling ECL spectroscopy, X-ray crystal structure analysis, photoluminescence, and DFT calculation. This CIEE-ECL system is a complement to the well-established aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE) systems. Unique intermolecular interactions are noted in the crystalline chromophore. The first heterogeneous ECL system is established for organic compounds with highly hydrophobic properties.


Laser Ablation In Liquid For The Controlled Production Of Photoluminescent Graphene Quantum Dots And Upconverting Nanoparticles, Rosemary Lynn Calabro Jan 2020

Laser Ablation In Liquid For The Controlled Production Of Photoluminescent Graphene Quantum Dots And Upconverting Nanoparticles, Rosemary Lynn Calabro

Theses and Dissertations--Chemistry

Photoluminescent­ (PL) nanomaterials play an important role in areas including displays, sensing, solar, photocatalysis, and bio applications. Traditional methods to prepare PL materials suffer many drawbacks such as harsh chemical precursors, complicated synthetic steps, and production of many byproducts. Laser ablation in liquid (LAL) has emerged as a promising alternative to prepare materials that is single-step, fast, uses fewer precursors, produces fewer side products, and has simple purification steps. During LAL, a solid target is irradiated with a pulsed laser source. The laser pulses cause plasma plumes of the target material to form which are cooled, condensed, and can react …


Designing Metal-Halide Perovskites With Enhanced Optical Properties And Stability Using Surface Ligands, Md Aslam Uddin Jan 2020

Designing Metal-Halide Perovskites With Enhanced Optical Properties And Stability Using Surface Ligands, Md Aslam Uddin

Theses and Dissertations--Chemistry

Metal-halide perovskites (MHPs), with formula ABX3 (A = methylammonium, formamidinium, or Cs+; B = Sn2+ or Pb2+; and X = Cl-, Br-, or I-) are versatile and attractive materials because of their tunable optical and electronic properties. These optical and electronic properties include tunable direct band gaps, high absorption coefficients, low exciton binding energies, relatively high electron and hole mobilities, narrow emission line-widths, and high photoluminescence (PL) quantum yields (ΦPL). Much of the initial excitement around organic metal-halide perovskites focused on their application in photovoltaics (PVs) …
