Electrically and optically readable light emitting memories.

ABSTRACT: Electrochemical metallization memories based on redox-induced resistance switching have been considered as the next-generation electronic storage devices. However, the electronic signals suffer from the interconnect delay and the limited reading speed, which are the major obstacles for memory performance. To solve this problem, here we demonstrate the first attempt of light-emitting memory (LEM) that uses SiO2 as the resistive switching material in tandem with graphene-insulator-semiconductor (GIS) light-emitting diode (LED). By utilizing the excellent properties of graphene, such as high conductivity, high robustness and high transparency, our proposed LEM enables data communication via electronic and optical signals simultaneously. Both the bistable light-emission state and the resistance switching properties can be attributed to the conducting filament mechanism. Moreover, on the analysis of current-voltage characteristics, we further confirm that the electroluminescence signal originates from the carrier tunneling, which is quite different from the standard p-n junction model. We stress here that the newly developed LEM device possesses a simple structure with mature fabrication processes, which integrates advantages of all composed materials and can be extended to many other material systems. It should be able to attract academic interest as well as stimulate industrial application.

All-inorganic perovskite quantum dot light-emitting memories.

Project description:Field-induced ionic motions in all-inorganic CsPbBr3 perovskite quantum dots (QDs) strongly dictate not only their electro-optical characteristics but also the ultimate optoelectronic device performance. Here, we show that the functionality of a single Ag/CsPbBr3/ITO device can be actively switched on a sub-millisecond scale from a resistive random-access memory (RRAM) to a light-emitting electrochemical cell (LEC), or vice versa, by simply modulating its bias polarity. We then realize for the first time a fast, all-perovskite light-emitting memory (LEM) operating at 5 kHz by pairing such two identical devices in series, in which one functions as an RRAM to electrically read the encoded data while the other simultaneously as an LEC for a parallel, non-contact optical reading. We further show that the digital status of the LEM can be perceived in real time from its emission color. Our work opens up a completely new horizon for more advanced all-inorganic perovskite optoelectronic technologies.

Flexible topographical design of light-emitting diodes realizing electrically controllable multi-wavelength spectra.

Project description:Multi-wavelength visible light emitters play a crucial role in current solid-state lighting. Although they can be realized by combining semiconductor light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and phosphors or by assembling multiple LED chips with different wavelengths, these design approaches suffer from phosphor-related issues or complex assembly processes. These challenges are significant drawbacks for emerging applications such as visible light communication and micro-LED displays. Herein we present a platform for tailored emission wavelength integration on a single chip utilizing epitaxial growth on flexibly-designed three-dimensional topographies. This approach spontaneously arranges the local emission wavelengths of InGaN-based LED structures through the local In composition variations. As a result, we demonstrate monolithic integration of three different emission colors (violet, blue, and green) on a single chip. Furthermore, we achieve flexible spectral control via independent electrical control of each component. Our integration scheme opens the possibility for tailored spectral control in an arbitrary spectral range through monolithic multi-wavelength LEDs.

Electrically conductive and optically active porous silicon nanowires.

Project description:We report the synthesis of vertical silicon nanowire array through a two-step metal-assisted chemical etching of highly doped n-type silicon (100) wafers in a solution of hydrofluoric acid and hydrogen peroxide. The morphology of the as-grown silicon nanowires is tunable from solid nonporous nanowires, nonporous/nanoporous core/shell nanowires, to entirely nanoporous nanowires by controlling the hydrogen peroxide concentration in the etching solution. The porous silicon nanowires retain the single crystalline structure and crystallographic orientation of the starting silicon wafer and are electrically conductive and optically active with visible photoluminescence. The combination of electronic and optical properties in the porous silicon nanowires may provide a platform for novel optoelectronic devices for energy harvesting, conversion, and biosensing.

Plasmon-enhanced Electrically Light-emitting from ZnO Nanorod Arrays/p-GaN Heterostructure Devices.

Project description:Effective and bright light-emitting-diodes (LEDs) have attracted broad interests in fundamental research and industrial application, especially on short wavelength LEDs. In this paper, a well aligned ZnO nanorod arrays grown on the p-GaN substrate to form a heterostructured light-emitting diode and Al nanoparticles (NPs) were decorated to improve the electroluminescence performance. More than 30-folds enhancement of the electroluminescence intensity was obtained compared with the device without Al NPs decoration. The investigation on the stable and transient photoluminescence spectraof the ZnO nanorod arrays before and after Al NPs decoration demonstrated that the metal surface plasmon resonance coupling with excitons of ZnO leads to the enhancement of the internal quantum efficiency (IQE). Our results provide aneffective approach to design novel optoelectronic devices such as light-emitting diodes and plasmonic nanolasers.

Electrically driven, phosphor-free, white light-emitting diodes using gallium nitride-based double concentric truncated pyramid structures.

Project description:White light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are becoming an alternative general light source, with huge energy savings compared to conventional lighting. However, white LEDs using phosphor(s) suffer from unavoidable Stokes energy converting losses, higher manufacturing cost, and reduced thermal stability. Here, we demonstrate electrically driven, phosphor-free, white LEDs based on three-dimensional gallium nitride structures with double concentric truncated hexagonal pyramids. The electroluminescence spectra are stable with varying current. The origin of the emission wavelength is studied by cathodoluminescence and high-angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy experiments. Spatial variation of the carrier injection efficiency is also investigated by a comparative analysis between spatially resolved photoluminescence and electroluminescence.

An electrically pumped surface-emitting semiconductor green laser.

Project description:Surface-emitting semiconductor lasers have been widely used in data communications, sensing, and recently in Face ID and augmented reality glasses. Here, we report the first achievement of an all-epitaxial, distributed Bragg reflector (DBR)-free electrically injected surface-emitting green laser by exploiting the photonic band edge modes formed in dislocation-free gallium nitride nanocrystal arrays, instead of using conventional DBRs. The device operates at ~523 nm and exhibits a threshold current of ~400 A/cm2, which is over one order of magnitude lower compared to previously reported blue laser diodes. Our studies open a new paradigm for developing low-threshold surface-emitting laser diodes from the ultraviolet to the deep visible (~200 to 600 nm), wherein the device performance is no longer limited by the lack of high-quality DBRs, large lattice mismatch, and substrate availability.

Ultra-low-current driven InGaN blue micro light-emitting diodes for electrically efficient and self-heating relaxed microdisplay.

Project description:InGaN-based micro-light-emitting diodes have a strong potential as a crucial building block for next-generation displays. However, small-size pixels suffer from efficiency degradations, which increase the power consumption of the display. We demonstrate strategies for epitaxial structure engineering carefully considering the quantum barrier layer and electron blocking layer to alleviate efficiency degradations in low current injection regime by reducing the lateral diffusion of injected carriers via reducing the tunneling rate of electrons through the barrier layer and balanced carrier injection. As a result, the fabricated micro-light-emitting diodes show a high external quantum efficiency of 3.00% at 0.1 A/cm2 for the pixel size of 10 × 10 μm2 and a negligible Jmax EQE shift during size reduction, which is challenging due to the non-radiative recombination at the sidewall. Furthermore, we verify that our epitaxy strategies can result in the relaxation of self-heating of the micro-light-emitting diodes, where the average pixel temperature was effectively reduced.

Electrically driven, highly efficient three-dimensional GaN-based light emitting diodes fabricated by self-aligned twofold epitaxial lateral overgrowth.

Project description:Improvements in the overall efficiency and significant reduction in the efficiency droop are observed in three-dimensional (3D) GaN truncated pyramid structures fabricated with air void and a SiO2 layer. This 3D structure was fabricated using a self-aligned twofold epitaxial lateral overgrowth technique, which improved both the internal quantum efficiency and the light extraction efficiency. In addition, a reduced leakage current was observed due to the effective suppression of threading dislocations. While this study focuses primarily on the blue emission wavelength region, this approach can also be applied to overcome the efficiency degradation problem in the ultraviolet, green, and red emission regions.

Optically controlled electroresistance and electrically controlled photovoltage in ferroelectric tunnel junctions.

Project description:Ferroelectric tunnel junctions (FTJs) have recently attracted considerable interest as a promising candidate for applications in the next-generation non-volatile memory technology. In this work, using an ultrathin (3?nm) ferroelectric Sm0.1Bi0.9FeO3 layer as the tunnelling barrier and a semiconducting Nb-doped SrTiO3 single crystal as the bottom electrode, we achieve a tunnelling electroresistance as large as 10(5). Furthermore, the FTJ memory states could be modulated by light illumination, which is accompanied by a hysteretic photovoltaic effect. These complimentary effects are attributed to the bias- and light-induced modulation of the tunnel barrier, both in height and width, at the semiconductor/ferroelectric interface. Overall, the highly tunable tunnelling electroresistance and the correlated photovoltaic functionalities provide a new route for producing and non-destructively sensing multiple non-volatile electronic states in such FTJs.

White-light-emitting triphasic fibers as a phosphor for light-emitting diodes.

Project description:White-light-emitting materials have received significant attention because of their potential application in lighting, displays, and sensors. However, it is a challenge to obtain white light from one phosphor, because the basic requirement of the white light emission spectrum is that it should be wide enough to cover the entire visible light region. In this study, we have designed and demonstrated a white-light-emitting PMMA-CBS-127/PVP-coumarin 6/PAN-rhodamine B (PSCR) fibrous membrane, which was prepared through a triphasic electrospinning method. Three luminescent organic dyes, CBS-127 (4.77 wt%, blue), coumarin 6 (0.1 wt%, green), and rhodamine B (0.42 wt%, red), were elaborately selected and doped into PMMA, PVP, and PAN, respectively. The resulting flexible PSCR membranes show white light emission (cover the entire visible-light region from 382 to 700 nm) with Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinates of (0.31, 0.32), which is very close to ideal white light with CIE coordinates (0.33, 0.33). In addition, the PSCR membranes maintained high-quality white light emission after about 10 weeks of storage. The PSCR membranes can be used as the phosphor converting layer in white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) through a remote membrane packaging method. A bright white emission is achieved at an applied voltage of 9 V. Therefore, the results indicate that PSCR membranes are potentially attractive candidates for application in WLEDs and displays.
