Article Citation - WoS: 53Citation - Scopus: 59Thickness-Tunable Self-Assembled Colloidal Nanoplatelet Films Enable Ultrathin Optical Gain Media(Amer Chemical Soc, 2020-07-31) Erdem, Onur; Foroutan, Sina; Gheshlaghi, Negar; Guzelturk, Burak; Altintas, Yemliha; Demir, Hilmi VolkanWe propose and demonstrate construction of highly uniform, multilayered superstructures of CdSe/CdZnS core/shell colloidal nanoplatelets (NPLs) using liquid interface self-assembly. These NPLs are sequentially deposited onto a solid substrate into slabs having monolayer-precise thickness across tens of cm(2) areas. Because of near-unity surface coverage and excellent uniformity, amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) is observed from an uncharacteristically thin film having 6 NPL layers, corresponding to a mere 42 nm thickness. Furthermore, systematic studies on optical gain of these NPL superstructures having thicknesses ranging from 6 to 15 layers revealed the gradual reduction in gain threshold with increasing number of layers, along with a continuous spectral shift of the ASE peak (similar to 18 nm). These observations can be explained by the change in the optical mode confinement factor with the NPL waveguide thickness and propagation wavelength. This bottom-up construction technique for thickness-tunable, three-dimensional NPL superstructures can be used for large-area device fabrication.Article Citation - WoS: 101Citation - Scopus: 104Giant Alloyed Hot Injection Shells Enable Ultralow Optical Gain Threshold in Colloidal Quantum Wells(Amer Chemical Soc, 2019-08-22) Altintas, Yemliha; Gungor, Kivanc; Gao, Yuan; Sak, Mustafa; Quliyeva, Ulviyya; Bappi, Golam; Demir, Hilmi VolkanAs an attractive materials system for high- Record-low optical gain threshold in giant-shell COWs performance optoelectronics, colloidal nanoplatelets (NPLs) benefit from atomic-level precision in thickness, minimizing emission inhomogeneous broadening. Much progress has been made to enhance their photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and photostability. However, to date, layer-by-layer growth of shells at room temperature has resulted in defects that limit PLQY and thus curtail the 0.2 performance of NPLs as an optical gain medium. Here, we introduce a hot-injection method growing giant alloyed shells using an approach that reduces core/shell lattice mismatch and suppresses Auger recombination. Near-unity PLQY is achieved with a narrow full-width-at-half-maximum (20 nm), accompanied by emission tunability (from 610 to 650 nm). The biexciton lifetime exceeds 1 ns, an order of magnitude longer than in conventional colloidal quantum dots (CQDs). Reduced Auger recombination enables record-low amplified spontaneous emission threshold of 2.4 mu J cm(-2) under one-photon pumping. This is lower by a factor of 2.5 than the best previously reported value in nanocrystals (6 /kJ cm(-2) for CdSe/CdS NPLs). Here, we also report single-mode lasing operation with a 0.55 mu J cm(-2) threshold under two-photoexcitation, which is also the best among nanocrystals (compared to 0.76 mu J cm(-2) from CdSe/CdS CQDs in the Fabry-Perot cavity). These findings indicate that hot-injection growth of thick alloyed shells makes ultrahigh performance NPLs.
