Wood‐Derived Nanocellulose‐Biocarbon Fresnel‐Zone Plate Lenses for Sub‐THz Frequency Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Wood‐derived nanocellulose and lignin‐based biocarbon were combined to fabricate fully bio‐based Fresnel zone plate (FZP) lenses for sub‐terahertz frequencies. These sustainable FZP lenses exhibit low dielectric loss and high directivity, achieving performance comparable to that of metallic references, and remain functional under environmental stress ...

Laser‐Induced Local De‐Doping in Organic Semiconductors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The polymer PBTTT‐C14 doped with the small molecule acceptor F4TCNQ is considered as a benchmark material system. Mask‐free, microscale patterning of the doping level via laser‐induced heating and sublimation of dopant molecules is shown. Controlling laser irradiance and swath spacing allows dopant level control with laser‐limited resolution, opening ...

Halide Defect Passivation in CsPbBr3 Nanocrystals Mediated by the Friedel–Crafts Reaction: Enhanced PLQY and Structural Stability Without Bandgap Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Post‐treatment of CsPbBr3 nanocrystals with an AlBr3/CH2Br2 solution does not induce Al3+ substitution at Pb2+ sites. Instead, a Friedel–Crafts reaction generates Br− ions that passivate halide defects, markedly increasing PLQY and improving structural stability without bandgap modulation.

Electrically Reconfigurable Optical Initialization of Spin Valley Polarization in Monolayer WS2 Enabled by Switchable Dual‐Mode Liquid Crystal Lasers

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents an electrically controllable approach to spin–valley polarization in monolayer WS2 by integrating it with a dual‐mode liquid crystal laser. Applying an external field triggers phase transitions that switch the laser emission between helicity‐defined band‐edge lasing and unpolarized random lasing.

Bright‐Dark Exciton Splitting in Lead Iodide Perovskite Crystals Accessed via Quantum Beats in Photon Echoes

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Understanding exciton fine structure is crucial for optoelectronic and quantum photonic applications of lead halide perovskites. It is demonstrated that polarization‐sensitive photon‐echo spectroscopy in a magnetic field resolves exciton fine‐structure splittings hidden by inhomogeneous broadening, enabling direct determination of the bright‐dark ...

Ligand‐Dependent Locally Excited and Charge‐Transfer Emission in Linear Copper(I) Mesoionic Carbene Luminophores

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Ligand engineering enables precise control of emission in linear Cu(I) complexes by tuning donor–acceptor interactions between electron‐rich amines and π‐accepting mesoionic carbenes. Naphthyl‐substituted carbenes promote locally excited phosphorescence with vibronic structure, whereas electron‐rich amides combined with electron‐poor carbenes favor ...
