“…The steady-state PL was excited at room temperature using UV band pass filter #FBH360-10 transparent in 350-370 nm spectra range (Thorlabs, Newton, NJ, USA) and 1 mW UV LED #XSL-360-5E (Roither Lasertechnik, GmbH, Vienna, Austria) directly powered by a #3390 waveform generator (Keithley Instruments, subsidiary of Tektronix, Solon, Ohio, USA) [19]. Our setup measures the PL emission in the 375-750 nm spectral range using the #34-302 long-pass optical filter fully absorbing below 370 nm and fully transparent above 375 nm (Edmund Optics, Barrington, NJ, USA), a 300-800 nm monochromator H20VIS (Horiba, Kyoto, Japan), a red-sensitive photomultiplier (PMT) #XP2203B (Photonis, Orsay, France), a low-noise current preamplifier #5182 with 10 5 V/A transimpedance (AMETEK, Berwyn, PA, USA), and a 100 kHz #SR830 lock-in amplifier (Stanford Research Systems, Sunnyvale, CA, USA) TTL referenced to the LED frequency.…”
