We investigate the influence of interchain interactions on the photoluminescence processes in a sexithiophene single crystal by applying hydrostatic pressure. We perform transient photoluminescence spectroscopy in the time domain of 100 fs for pressures up to 60 kbar. The combined use of steady-state and time-resolved optical spectroscopies allows us to show that the pressure-induced quenching ...

Phonon-assisted exciton transitions in spherical GaAs nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 matrices have been studied by means of selective excitation spectroscopy. The optical and acoustic phononassisted optical transitions appear in the photoluminescence excitation, photoluminescence linenarrowing, and photoluminescence hole-burning spectra at low temperatures. Both direct (zerophonon) and phonon-as...

We present a joint theory-experiment study on ultrafast photoluminescence from photoexcited graphene. On the basis of a microscopic theory, we reveal two distinct mechanisms behind the occurring photoluminescence: besides the well-known incoherent contribution driven by nonequilibrium carrier occupations, we found a coherent part that spectrally shifts with the excitation energy. In our experim...

We have developed a framework for using temperature dependent static and dynamic photoluminescence (PL) of hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (PVSKs) to characterize lattice defects in thin films, based on the presence of nanodomains at low temperature. Our high-stability PVSK films are fabricated using a novel continuous liquid interface propagation technique, and in the tetragonal phase (T ...

Incorporation of non-luminescent dodecanethiolate-protected gold clusters into regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) films results in a 6-fold increase in the visible photoluminescence (PL) of the polymer, which arises predominantly from NP-induced structural changes in the composite films.

Traditionally, spatially-resolved photoluminescence (PL) has been performed using a point-by-point scan mode with both excitation and detection occurring at the same spatial location. But with the availability of high quality detector arrays like CCDs, an imaging mode has become popular for performing spatially-resolved PL. By illuminating the entire area of interest and collecting the data sim...

A general theory of polariton parametric photoluminescence in spatially inhomogeneous systems is developed. The quantum Langevin equations are solved in a generalized Bogoliubov–de Gennes approximation. We apply the formalism to the specific case of a disordered microcavity. In this case, we numerically solve the equations for the coherent emission and the photoluminescence. We describe the eff...

Luminescent materials with dynamic photoluminescence activity have aroused special interest because of their potential widespread applications. One proposed approach of directly and reversibly modulating the photoluminescence emissions is by means of introducing an external electric field in an in-situ and real-time way, which has only been focused on thin films. In this work, we demonstrate th...

An improved Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy approach adapting to photoluminescence and electroluminescence measurements in mid-infrared has been developed, in which diode-pumped solid-state excitation lasers were adopted for photoluminescence excitation. In this approach, three different Fourier transform infrared modes of rapid scan, double modulation, and step scan were software switc...
