Rate constants for ion production in collisions between potassium atoms in nd Rydberg states and SF6 and CCl4 have been investigated over a range of principal quantum numbers n between 9 and 45. The data suggest that, at the lower values of n, electrostatic interactions between the product ions become important and lead to a marked decrease in free ion production for both target species. The data also demonstrate that only a small fraction of the energy released by dissociative electron attachment to CCl4 appears as kinetic energy of the Cl− fragment.
Organolead halide perovskite is a newly emerging low-cost, solution-processable material with a broadband absorption from the ultraviolet (UV) to visible (Vis) region, which has attracted a great deal of interest in high-performance optoelectronic devices. However, some practicable applications need a cover of UV-Vis-NIR region for photoelectric conversion, a task that remains a significant challenge for further extending the absorption toward the near-infrared radiation (NIR) region. Here, to the best of our knowledge, we prove for the first time an ultrasensitive flexible broadband photodetector based on porous organolead perovskitephthalocyanine heterostructure, which combines the synergetic properties of high UV-Vis absorbance of perovskite with enhanced NIR absorption for triclinic lead phthalocyanine. The photosensitivity of the as-prepared devices reaches up to 10 4 at a low intensity of 10 mW cm −2 , which is among the largest values reported for broadband photodetectors. Significantly, performed at room temperature, the device achieves a pA scale dark current along with an ultrafast response speed of less than 0.6 ms for as-adopted full spectra. Our results provide an easy and promising route to develop low-cost, flexible and highly sensitive UV-Vis-NIR photodetectors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
