Article Abstract

In this short review, an overview of recent progress in deploying advanced characterization techniques is provided to understand the effects of spatial variation and inhomogeneities in moiré heterostructures over multiple length scales. Particular emphasis is placed on correlating the impact of twist angle misalignment, nano-scale disorder, and atomic relaxation on the moiré potential and its collective excitations, particularly moiré excitons. Finally, future technological applications leveraging moiré excitons are discussed.

We develop an ab initio framework that captures the impact of electron-electron and electron-hole interactions on phonon properties. This enables the inclusion of excitonic effects in the optical phonon dispersions and lifetimes of graphene, both near the center (Γ) and at the border (K) of the Brillouin zone, at phonon-momenta relevant for Raman scattering and for the onset of the intrinsic electrical resistivity. Near K, we find a phonon redshift of ∼150  cm^{-1} and a 10× enhancement of the group velocity, together with a 5× increase in linewidths due to a 26× increase of the electron-phonon matrix elements.

To date, Cu(I)-based metal halides with high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) have primarily focused on their zero-dimensional or one-dimensional structures, significantly reflecting the charge or carrier localization. Designing two-dimensional (2D) hybrid copper(I) halides remains a significant challenge for optoelectronic applications, particularly in simultaneously achieving high PLQY and exceptional structural stability. Here, we report a novel series of 2D hybrid Cu(I) halides, (TDMP)CuX (TDMP = 2,5-dimethylpiperazine and X = Cl, Br), synthesized through simple solution-cooling crystallization methods.

Carbon dots (CDs) represent a new class of nontoxic and sustainable nanomaterials with increasing applications. Among them, bright and large Stokes-shift CDs are highly desirable for display and imaging, yet the emission mechanisms remain unclear. We obtained structural signatures for the recently engineered green and red CDs by ground-state femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS), then synthesized orange CDs with similar size but much higher nitrogen dopants than red CDs.

Inverted quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) show great promise for next-generation displays due to their compatibility with integrated circuit architectures. However, their development has been hindered by inefficient exciton utilization and charge transport imbalance. Here, we present a strategy for regulating charge-exciton dynamics through the rational design of a multifunctional hole transport layer (HTL), incorporating polyethylenimine ethoxylated (PEIE) as a protective interlayer in fully-solution-processed inverted red QLEDs.

Thermal Cross-linked Electron Transport Polymers for Suppressing Efficiency Roll-off in Green Solution-Processed Inverted OLEDs.

Solution-processed phosphorescent inverted organic light-emitting diodes (s-IOLEDs) have garnered significant attention due to their excellent stability and high performance. However, frequently used inorganic electron transport layers usually cause exciton dissociation at the emitting layer interface, leading to low device efficiency and severe efficiency roll-off. In this work, we designed a cross-linkable triazine-grafted electron transport copolymer (PPDPT--PBCB) with a high triplet energy (3.
