The spin-polarized organic light-emitting diode (spin-OLED) has been a long-sought device within the field of spintronics. We designed, fabricated, and studied spin-OLED with ferromagnetic electrodes that acts as bipolar spin valve (OSV), based on deuterated derivative poly(phenylene-vinylene) small hyperfine interaction. In double-injection limit, shows ~1% magneto-electroluminescence (MEL) response, which follows electrode coercive fields originates from space charge-limited current. stark...

We explore the possibility that hyperfine interaction causes recently discovered organic magnetoresistance (OMAR) effect. deduce a simple fitting formula from Hamiltonian relates saturation field of OMAR traces to coupling constant. compare results literature values for this parameter. Furthermore, we apply an excitonic pair mechanism model based on interaction, previously suggested by others explain various magnetic-field effects in organics, data. Whereas can few key aspects experimental...

We study the recently discovered organic magnetoresistance (OMAR) effect in a pair of materials that have similar chemical structures except one contains heavy atom to enhance spin-orbit coupling. use photoluminescence spectroscopy estimate coupling strength. In material with weak characteristic magnetic field scale is comparable hyperfine strong we find OMAR strongly reduced size and traces clearly exhibit second, higher which identify model our results using standard spin-dynamics Hamiltonian.

The magnetic field effect in organic light-emitting diodes, such as magnetoconductance and magnetoelectroluminescence, has been intensively explored the last few years. Here, we demonstrate of two excited-state spectroscopies films a prototype \ensuremath{\pi}-conjugated polymer, i.e., soluble derivative poly(phenylene vinylene), [2-methoxy-5-(2\ensuremath{'}-ethylhexyloxy)-poly(p-phenylene vinylene)] (MEH-PPV); these are magnetophoto-induced absorption (MPA) magnetophotoluminescence (MPL)....

The cao vit gibbon (Nomascus nasutus) is one of the rarest primates on Earth and now only survives in a single forest patch less than 5000 ha Vietnam-China border. Accurate monitoring last remaining population critical to inform ongoing conservation interventions track success over time. However, traditional methods for gibbons, involving triangulation groups from their songs, are inherently subjective likely subject considerable measurement errors. To overcome this, we aimed use 'vocal...

The buckminsterfullerene C${}_{60}$ molecules are composed of \ensuremath{\sim}99$%$ naturally abundant ${}^{12}$C carbon atoms having spinless nucleus and thus zero hyperfine interaction. Therefore it has been assumed that the spin diffusion length in C${}_{60}$-based spin-valves is large. We fabricated based on studied magnitude obtained giant magnetoresistance (GMR) as a function bias voltage, temperature, layer thickness.

Abstract Chirality transfer from organic chiral molecules to lead halides is theorized as the origin of strong Rashba‐Dresselhaus effect causing large circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in metal halide perovskites (MHPs). Here, a concrete empirical evidence provided that such CD CPL can occur even nonchiral 2D Ruddlesden‐Popper (RPPs) (BA) 2 (MA) n −1 Pb I 3 +1 (where MA = CH NH BA (CH ) ).

Abstract Despite their excellent intrinsic stability, low‐dimensional Ruddlesden‐Popper (LDRP) perovskites face challenges with low power conversion efficiency (PCE), primarily due to the widen bandgap and limited charge transport caused by bulky spacer cation. Herein, we introduce formamidinium chloride (FACl) as an additive into (4‐FPEA) 2 MA 4 Pb 5 I 16 perovskite. On one hand, addition of FACl narrows through cation exchange between + FA , thereby extending light absorption range...
