Optimization of gray-scale performance in pixellated-metal-mirror FLC-OASLM by equivalent circuit model

An equivalent circuit model of a pixellated-metal-mirror ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC) optically addressed spatial light modulator (OASLM) is proposed. Using both structure and FLC material parameters of a real device and real material as the simulation parameters, the model is firstly confirmed by good agreement of simulation results and the reported experimental ones, and then utilized to optimize gray-scale performance of the OASLM. The model is developed from an improved FLC equivalent circuit, and has the ability to describe the voltage dropped across the modulating layer and to predict how optical outputs vary over time with the input drive voltage and control image. Simulation results indicate that gray-scale performance of the OASLM is highly dependent on write pulse width. More than 10 gray scales are observed when write pulse width is 100 μs and the number reduces to four when it reaches 500 μs. Other parameters of drive voltage can be set to adjust the region of write light intensity over which gray scales are best produced, and write pulses are found to be primary at high write light intensities, whereas erase pulses are dominant at low write light intensities. Furthermore, although gray-scale performance is weakly dependent on erase-light intensity, the erase light is necessary to ensure a proper erasure of the device and at least 1 mW/cm² is required in this study.

Recent Advances in Optical Engineering of Light‐Emitting Electrochemical Cells

Since the first demonstration of light‐emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) in 1995, much effort has been made to develop this technology for display and lighting. A common LEC generally contains a single emissive layer blended with a salt, which provides mobile ions under a bias. Ions accumulated at electrodes facilitate electrochemical doping such that operation voltage is low even when employing high‐work‐function inert electrodes. The superior properties of simple device architecture, low‐voltage operation, and compatibility with inert metal electrode render LECs suitable for cost‐effective light‐emitting sources. In addition to enormous progress in developing novel emissive materials for LECs, optical engineering has been shown to improve device performance of LECs in an alternative way. Light outcoupling enhancement technologies recycle the trapped light and increase the light output from LECs. Techniques to estimate emission zone position provide a powerful tool to study carrier balance of LECs and to optimize device performance. Spectral tailoring of the output emission from LECs based on microcavity effect and localized surface plasmon resonance of metal nanoparticles improves the intrinsic emission properties of emissive materials by optical means. These reported optical techniques are overviewed in this review.     

Self‐Assembled Room Temperature Multiferroic BiFeO3‐LiFe5O8 Nanocomposites

Multiferroic materials have driven significant research interest due to their promising technological potential. Developing new room‐temperature multiferroics and understanding their fundamental properties are important to reveal unanticipated physical phenomena and potential applications. Here, a new room temperature multiferroic nanocomposite comprised of an ordered ferrimagnetic spinel α‐LiFe₅O₈ (LFO) and a ferroelectric perovskite BiFeO₃ (BFO) is presented. It is observed that lithium (Li)‐doping in BFO favors the formation of LFO spinel as a secondary phase during the synthesis of Li_xBi_1?xFeO₃ ceramics. Multimodal functional and chemical imaging methods are used to map the relationship between doping‐induced phase separation and local ferroic properties in both the BFO‐LFO composite ceramics and self‐assembled nanocomposite thin films. The energetics of phase separation in Li doped BFO and the formation of BFO‐LFO composites are supported by first principles calculations. These findings shed light on Li's role in the formation of a functionally important room temperature multiferroic and open a new approach in the synthesis of light element doped nanocomposites for future energy, sensing, and memory applications.     

Delamination‐Free Functional Graphene Surface by Multiscale,Conformal Wrinkling

Obtaining a delamination‐free wrinkled functional graphene surface in layered systems is an interesting challenge because the interface is usually too weak to withstand interfacial stress mismatch, which can trigger mechanical instability. In this paper, a general strategy is proposed toward addressing the delamination limitation imposed by fabricating conformal graphene wrinkles with bilayer systems of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). To improve the interfacial strength, a postcuring transfer process is introduced to form a gradient interface layer without interfacial liquid between the PMMA and PDMS by entanglement of polymer chains during high‐temperature curing. Compared to the conventional wet transfer of graphene,the transfer method can greatly enhance the interfacial strength. The chemical and mechanical mechanisms underlying the enhancement are revealed both experimentally and theoretically in terms of the transition from the buckled‐induced delamination state to the delamination‐free wrinkled state. Moreover, the light diffraction behaviors of multiscale graphene wrinkles are initially demonstrated to be an interesting continuous pattern induced by overlapping. The delamination‐free conformal wrinkled functional graphene surface can provide valuable insight and design guidelines for the fundamental problems of deformed graphene and its applications in flexible functional devices.
