Novel combined instrumentation for laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy for the <i>in situ</i> atomic and molecular analysis of minerals
摘要: An instrument combining laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and Raman spectroscopy was developed for the in situ atomic and molecular composition analysis of minerals. The apparatus consists of an optical system, a sample chamber, a spectrometer for Raman and another for LIBS, as well as a control system equipped with laboratory-written software. Gypsum, calcite, prehnite, pearl, lazurite, and several mixtures of NaBr and CaCO3 were selected as samples for evaluation of the performance of the instrument. Sulfate, carbonate, silicate, and crystalline water were identified and different structures of CaCO3 were clearly distinguished by the use of a Gaussian fit. The limit of detection for CaCO3 in a NaBr mixture was 5.7 mg/g by Raman. LIBS was employed to determine calcium, magnesium, iron, sodium, aluminum, and carbon with the newly developed system. The limits of detection obtained for Ca, Na, and C were 90.2 lg/g, 84.6 lg/g, and 2.5 mg/g, respectively. The experimental results from commercial Raman spectroscopy instruments were used to verify and support the measurements from this novel instrument.

Effect of Annealing Temperature on Structural, Morphological, Optical and Electrical Properties of Spray Deposited V2O5 Thin Films
摘要: Nanostructured vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) thin films have been deposited by a simple and cost-effective spray pyrolysis technique (SPT) at substrate temperature 300 °C and post annealed at atmospheric conditions in the temperature range from 300 °C to 500 °C at a constant rate of heating. The influence of post annealing heat treatment on the crystallization of V2O5 has been investigated. Films were characterized structurally by X-ray diffraction, morphologically by Scanning electron microscopy, optically using UV-Vis spectrophotometer, electrical characterization using Hall probe and Raman spectroscopy has been carried out for phase confirmation. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) revealed that, as deposited films were orthorhombic structures with a preferential orientation along (0 0 1) direction. Moreover, it was observed that crystallite size increases from 22 nm to 56 nm with increase in annealing temperature. Optical properties of these samples were studied in the wavelength range 300 – 1000 nm. Raman spectrum confirms the layered structure of V2O5 thin films. Hall Effect measurements indicate that the change in carrier concentration with increase in annealing temperature.

AIP Conference Proceedings [Author(s) CURRENT TRENDS IN RENEWABLE AND ALTERNATE ENERGY - Guwahati, India (4–6 December 2018)] - Study of laser induced micro-structural changes in reduced graphene oxide
摘要: Graphene is a promising 2D material for solar cell and energy storage applications. Graphene based materials such as Graphene oxide (GO) are proposed as anode materials for Lithium ion batteries, transparent conducting films, electrodes in polymer based solar cells and many other applications. The present paper discusses laser induced micro structural changes in reduced GO (r-GO) thin films. GO was prepared by Modified Hummers Method, which is easy and low cost method for its large-scale production. The samples were thermally annealed at 400°C to obtain r-GO. To study the influence of laser exposure on micro structure of r-GO, the Raman spectra was recorded after exposure to different time 2, 4, 6 and 8 minutes. Two different laser intensities (95 and 159 KW/cm2) were used to do the same. A blue shift in peak positions and change in ratio of intensity were observed in D and G peaks of Raman spectra after exposure. A total Raman blue shift of about 5 cm-1 is noted in each case, which is due to increased compressive stress between the carbon-carbon bonds. The Raman data was used for calculations of residual stress, grain size and defect density, which changes in gradual pattern with increase in power density and time of exposure. From these observations, it can be concluded that r-GO thin film undergoes micro-structural changes at exposed portion, without affecting rest of the film.

Photophysical features and semiconducting properties of propeller-shaped oligo(styryl)benzenes
摘要: Electronic, optical, and semiconducting properties of a series of propeller-shaped oligo(styryl)benzenes have been systematically investigated to monitor the effect of the number of styryl branches (three, four, and six) around a central benzene core. In order to clarify the relationships between their structures and properties, Density Functional Theory calculations were carried out at several levels of theory considering solvents with different polarity. Absorption and vibrational Raman spectroscopies showed that cruciform, four-branched derivatives present the most effective π-conjugation in agreement with the lowest calculated bond length alternation and bandgap. Deviations from the mirror image symmetry between absorption and fluorescence spectra were related to changes in the molecular conformation upon electronic excitation. Furthermore, in order to investigate the semiconducting behavior of oligo(styryl)benzenes, molecular structure changes and different electronic properties related to ionization processes were calculated and analyzed. Hole and electron reorganization energies were also computed to provide a first approximation on the n- or p-type character of these compounds. In some cases, electron reorganization energies comparable to common n-type semiconductors were found.

Influence of bath temperatures on physical and electrical properties of potentiostatically deposited Cu2O thin films for heterojunction solar cell applications
摘要: In the present work, the influence of bath temperatures on structural, morphological, vibrational, optical, electrical and photo response properties of the electrochemically deposited cuprous oxide (Cu2O) thin films on fluorine doped tin oxide substrate is extensively investigated with the help of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Micro Raman spectroscopy, photo luminescence (PL) spectroscopy, UV–visible spectroscopy, LCR measurement, Keithley 4200 semiconductor characterization system respectively. XRD patterns reveal that the deposited Cu2O films have cubic structure grown along the preferential (111) orientation and the film deposited at 40 °C shows better crystalline nature when compared at 55 and 70 °C. The micro structural properties of films such as crystallite size (D), dislocation density (δ), micro strain (ε) and stacking fault probability (α) were calculated and discussed in detail. SEM displays a well-defined three side pyramid shaped morphology for the film deposited at 40 °C. Micro Raman and PL spectra reveal the film deposited at 40 °C by being better crystalline at a higher acceptor concentration. UV–Visible study shows that the optical energy band gap increases from 2.05 to 2.17 eV with an increase in bath temperature from 40 to 70 °C. The frequency-temperature dependence of impedance analysis shows a higher electrical conductivity for a film deposited at 40 °C compared to other bath temperatures. I-V measurement illustrates a good photoconductivity response for Cu2O thin film deposited at 40 °C compared to films deposited at 55 and 70 °C.

Correlation of acetylene plasma discharge environment and the optical and electronic properties of the hydrogenated amorphous carbon films
摘要: Thin films from polymeric and graphitic hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:H) were deposited over a glass substrate from acetylene (C2H2) plasma by using a conventional plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). Radio frequency capacitively coupled plasma (RF CCP) source operating at a frequency of 13.56 MHz was used for generation of the discharge. Optical emission spectroscopy (OES) results showed strong optical emissions from diacetylene ion C4H2+ at a wavelength of 506 nm. The energy dispersive X-Ray (EDS) measurements illustrated that the carbon content in the deposited films increased with increasing of power. The Raman and IR results demonstrated that the films deposited at low bias voltages 340 V are so called polymeric a-C:H with high sp3 fraction and high hydrogen content, while the films deposited at high bias voltages 877 V are so called graphitic a-C:H with low sp3 fraction and low hydrogen content. Quantitative information were obtained from fitting the high asymmetrical vibrational modes of Raman and IR spectra by using Fano model expression together with Lorentzian function. The results presented here point out that there is a relation between the intensity of C4H2+ ion emissions and the deposited films properties.

Highly Sensitive and Selective Nanogap-Enhanced SERS Sensing Platform
摘要: This paper reports a highly sensitive and selective surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) sensing platform. We used a simple fabrication method to generate plasmonic hotspots through a direct maskless plasma etching of a polymer surface and the surface tension-driven assembly of high aspect ratio Ag/polymer nanopillars. These collapsed plasmonic nanopillars produced an enhanced near-field interaction via coupled localized surface plasmon resonance. The high density of the small nanogaps yielded a high plasmonic detection performance, with an average SERS enhancement factor of 1.5 × 107. More importantly, we demonstrated that the encapsulation of plasmonic nanostructures within nanofiltration membranes allowed the selective filtration of small molecules based on the degree of membrane swelling in organic solvents and molecular size. Nanofiltration membrane-encapsulated SERS substrates do not require pretreatments. Therefore, they provide a simple and fast detection of toxic molecules using portable Raman spectroscopy.

Complex impedance, FT-Raman, and photoluminescence spectroscopic studies of pure and L-phenylalanine doped ammonium dihydrogen phosphate single crystals: the correlation with hydrogen bonding defect
摘要: Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (ADP) is an important nonlinear optical (NLO) material used for electro-optical applications. The aromatic side chain contained dopant like L-phenylalanine causes defect in ADP. The pure and L-phenylalanine doped ADP crystals are grown using slow solvent evaporation technique at room temperature. The Powder XRD spectra suggest tetragonal crystal system and slit shifting of peak. The FT-Raman shows strong absorption peak at 922 cm?1 due to v1 group symmetry of P - OH for all grown crystals without shifting indicating the single phase nature of all the crystals. The photoluminescence study suggests the presence of defects in doped crystals compared to the pure one due to increase of Stokes shift and vibrational energy relaxation phenomena. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss have shown the usual behavior with respect to frequency and temperature. The calculated electro-optic coefficient is found to be in accordance with dielectric constant. The protonic conduction is prevailing for electric transport, and from Jonscher’s plot, the correlation barrier hopping (CBH) is confirmed. The Nyquist plot and modulus spectra of pure ADP show the presence of grain and grain boundary while the same plots for L-phenylalanine doped ADP show the presence of grain only. The stretch exponent exhibits non-Debye-type relaxation.

Thickness of sublimation grown SiC layers measured by scanning Raman spectroscopy
摘要: We have grown homoepitaxial high resistivity SiC layers on conducting SiC substrates. We develop a method to determine the thickness of grown layers by scanning confocal Raman spectroscopy (SCRS). We also grow epitaxial graphene on SiC layers to label the top sample surface, and, we correlate the top surface position with Rayleigh scattering (RS). The interface between the high resistivity SiC layer and conductive SiC substrate is probed by the transition from LO phonon to the coupled LO phonon-plasmon Raman mode. The layer thickness measurements are veri?ed by ellipsometry and Secondary Ion Mass Spectroscopy (SIMS). We show that the SCRS method provides superior lateral and vertical resolution, it is robust against errorneous conclusions based on ad-hoc models, and it is easy to implement.

Sexing of chicken eggs by fluorescence and Raman spectroscopy through the shell membrane
摘要: In order to provide an alternative to day-old chick culling in the layer hatcheries, a noninvasive method for egg sexing is required at an early stage of incubation before onset of embryo sensitivity. Fluorescence and Raman spectroscopy of blood offers the potential for precise and contactless in ovo sex determination of the domestic chicken (Gallus gallus f. dom.) eggs already during the fourth incubation day. However, such kind of optical spectroscopy requires a window in the egg shell, is thus invasive to the embryo and leads to decreased hatching rates. Here, we show that near infrared Raman and fluorescence spectroscopy can be performed on perfused extraembryonic vessels while leaving the inner egg shell membrane intact. Sparing the shell membrane makes the measurement minimally invasive, so that the sexing procedure does not affect hatching rates. We analyze the effect of the membrane above the vessels on fluorescence signal intensity and on Raman spectrum of blood, and propose a correction method to compensate for it. After compensation, we attain a correct sexing rate above 90% by applying supervised classification of spectra. Therefore, this approach offers the best premises towards practical deployment in the hatcheries.
