AbstractA Si nanocrystal based metal-oxide-semiconductor light-emitting diode (MOSLED) on Si nano-pillar array is preliminarily demonstrated. Rapid self-aggregation of Ni nanodots on Si substrate covered with a thin SiO2 buffered layer is employed as the etching mask for obtaining Si nano-pillar array. Dense Ni nanodots with size and density of 30 nm and 2.8×10 cm-2, respectively, can be formatted after rapid thermal annealing at 850°C for 22 s. The nano-roughened Si surface contributes to both the relaxation of total-internal reflection at device-air interface and the Fowler-Nordheim tunneling enhanced turn-on characteristics, providing the MOSLED a maximum optical power of 0.7 uW obtained at biased current of 375 uA. The optical intensity, turn-on current, power slope and external quantum efficiency of the MOSLED are 140 μW/cm2, 5 uA, 2+-0.8 mW/A and 1×10-3, respectively, which is almost one order of magnitude larger than that of a same device made on smooth Si substrate.

Purpose This study aims to focus on roughening N-face (backside) GaN substrate prior to GaN-on-GaN light-emitting diode (LED) growth as an attempt to improve the LED performance. Design/methodology/approach The N-face of GaN substrate was roughened by three different etchants; ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH), a mixture of NH4OH and H2O2 (NH4OH: H2O2) and potassium hydroxide (KOH). Hexagonal pyramids were successfully formed on the surface when the substrate was subjected to the etching in all cases. Findings Under 30 min of etching, the highest density of pyramids was obtained by NH4OH: H2O2 etching, which was 5 × 109 cm–2. The density by KOH and NH4OH etchings was 3.6 × 109 and 5 × 108 cm–2, respectively. At standard operation of current density at 20 A/cm2, the optical power and external quantum efficiency of the LED on the roughened GaN substrate by NH4OH: H2O2 were 12.3 mW and 22%, respectively, which are higher than its counterparts. Originality/value This study demonstrated NH4OH: H2O2 is a new etchant for roughening the N-face GaN substrate. The results showed that such etchant increased the density of the pyramids on the N-face GaN substrate, which subsequently resulted in higher optical power and external quantum efficiency to the LED as compared to KOH and NH4OH.

<p>Metalloporphyrins are molecules capable of optically sensing targets due to their specific reactivity. Shifts in metalloporphyrins spectra are usually in the order of 30 nm, requiring a spectrophotometer for transducing the analyte concentration. Mesoporous oxide thin films photonic crystals (PC) act as optical filters, while their pores can host molecular moieties. In this work used a metalloporphyrin, Mn<sup>III</sup> meso-tetra(N-methyl-4-pyridyl) porphyrin (MP), to add a recognition functionality to a PC and, at the same time, retain their pore network, in order to develop a versatile and portable sensing device for volatile amines. The hybrid material MP@PC was prepared by immersion of the PC, synthesized from two mesoporous oxides with different refractive index, in an MP solution. The system was characterized by UV-Vis absorption and FTIR spectroscopies, and SEM microscopy. Sensing of small molecules was tested using ethylenediamine (EDA) as a volatile amine model, showing an absorbance increase in the PC spectral window with promising analytical parameters. The hybrid material presents enhanced sensing capabilities compared to MP or PC alone. A prototype device was built, aiming for a future design of simple, low-cost equipment, with a light emitting diode and a light-dependent resistor, including the MP@PC sensor. The device is capable of sensing with only 1.52 μg of MP on a 1 cm<sup>2</sup> glass slide and it is easily prepared and showed a very small detection limit.</p>
