Abstract

It is a great challenge to obtain narrowband and photomultiplication (PM) type organic photodetectors (OPDs) without optical filters due to the broad absorption range and large exciton binding energy of organic materials. Narrowband OPDs with the special structure of ITO/PFN-OX/P3HT : PC61BM (100 : 1,wt/wt)/Al were successfully fabricated with different active layer thicknesses, exhibiting a tunable response window and PM phenomenon under bi-directional bias. The OPDs exhibit U-shaped EQE spectra with two narrowband response windows under forward bias and a single narrowband response window under reverse bias. The best EQE of the optimized OPDs with a 4.0 μm thick active layer approaches 7160% or 8180% for 340 nm or 650 nm light illumination at 60 V and 1640% for 665 nm light illumination at -60 V, respectively. The most important features of the optimized OPDs is that the full width at half-maximum (FWHM) of their response windows is less than 30 nm under bi-directional biases, which can be well maintained at large bias. The PM type narrowband OPDs working at bi-directional bias are the first to be reported with a tunable response range, further indicating that the density of the electrons trapped in PC61BM near the hole injec...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
