Distinctive features of diffusion-controlled radiation defect recombination in stoichiometric magnesium aluminate spinel single crystals and transparent polycrystalline ceramics
摘要: MgAl2O4 spinel is important optical material for harsh radiation environment and other important applications. the kinetics of thermal annealing of the basic electron (F, F+) and hole (V) centers in stoichiometric MgAl2O4 spinel irradiated by fast neutrons and protons is analyzed in terms of diffusion-controlled bimolecular reactions. properties of MgAl2O4 single crystals and optical polycrystalline ceramics are compared. it is demonstrated that both transparent ceramics and single crystals, as well as different types of irradiation show qualitatively similar kinetics, but the effective migration energy Ea and pre-exponent D0 are strongly correlated. Such correlation is discussed in terms of the so-called Meyer-Neldel rule known in chemical kinetics of condensed matter. The results for the irradiated spinel are compared with those for sapphire, MgO and other radiation-resistant materials.

Studies on the photoelectric properties of crosslinked-poly(acrylamide co-acrylic acid) for photo detector applications
摘要: The co-polymer, polyacrylamide co-acrylic acid-P(AM-AA) was prepared by chemical polymerization of acrylamide with acrylic acid in presence of methylene bisacrylamide as a crosslinker. The copolymer was analyzed using FTIR, XRD and DTA. The I-V characteristics of the copolymer were studied and proved that the recombination process is dependent on the presence of traps distributed in the energy gap. The results showed that the traps contribute significantly in the increased photosensitivity of the co-polymer. The behaviors of both dark and photoconductivity with temperature showed linear relations at different light intensities and proved an activated conduction with single activation energy. The activation energy (Ea) at different light intensity was found to follow Meyer Neldel rule (MN rule) and the intercept σo (pre factor) as well. The characteristic energy of exponential traps was found to be within 0.0134–0.009 eV, at different light intensities. The transient photoconductivity studies on the co-polymer confirmed the presence of traps. Where, the high photosensitivity and the presence of traps may contribute to the development of the improved performance of photo detectors.

Unraveling the Role of Multiphonon Excitations and Disorder Concerning the Meyer-Neldel Type Compensation Effect in Organic Semiconductors
摘要: The Meyer-Neldel (MN) compensation rule, implying an exponential increase in the prefactor with increasing activation energy in a thermally activated process, is naturally emerging in two-site transition rates as a result of multiphonon excitation processes. However, it has been recently demonstrated [Phys. Rev. B. 90, 245201 (2014)] that the experimentally observed compensation behavior for the temperature-activated charge transport in thin-film organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) is not a genuine phenomenon, but rather it is an apparent extrapolated effect that arises as a consequence of the partial filling of the Gaussian DOS distribution. To resolve the contradiction, we investigate the impact of different jump-rate models on macroscopic hopping-charge transport in a random organic system using an effective medium analytic approach. The principal result of this study is that the averaging over the individual jump rates in a conventional Gaussian disordered system erodes the genuine thermodynamically determined MN compensation effect, and therefore, the macroscopic transport no longer reflects the microscopic rates. The apparent compensation behavior observed for OFET mobilities upon varying the carrier concentrations can be reproduced regardless of the single-phonon or multiphonon character of activated transitions. Another remarkable finding is that the disorder formalism does predict a genuine MN compensation effect using multiphonon rates if a disordered semiconductor contains a significant concentration of deep traps, so that the cumulative DOS features a double-peak Gaussian. Thus, this study bridges the gap between Gaussian disorder and multi-excitation entropy (MEE) models concerning the MN effect, and has important implications for the interpretation of the isokinetic MN temperature in disordered organic semiconductors.
