Department of Photonics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyConventionally, colloidal lead halide perovskite nanocubes have been synthesized by the hot-injection or ligand-assisted reprecipitation (LARP) methods. We herein demonstrate a polar solvent-free room temperature method for the synthesis of CsPbX3 (X = Br, Cl) nanocubes. In addition to the commonly used ligand pair of oleylamine and oleic acid, guanidinium (GA) has been used to passivate the surface of the nanocrystals. Our study demonstrates that GA inhibits the formation of low dimensional structures such as nanowires and nanoplatelets and further supports the formation of perovskite nanocubes. In fact, GA diminishes the restricted monomer-addition effect of long-chain oleylammonium (OLAM) ions to the nanocrystal. We show that above a critical GA/OLAM molar ratio, the synthesis yields homogeneous CsPbX3 (X = Br, Cl) nanocubes. Importantly, we observe the nucleation and growth kinetics of the GA-assisted CsPbBr3 nanocube formation by using in situ absorption and photoluminescence (PL) measurements. Small nanocrystals with an excitonic absorption peak at around 435 nm and photoluminescence (PL) maxima at 447 nm were nucleated and continuously shifted to longer wavelengths during the growth period. Crucially, our method allows the synthesis of CsPbCl3 nanocubes at room temperature without using polar organic solvents. The synthesized CsPbBr3, CsPb(Cl0.5Br0.5)3, and CsPbCl3 nanocubes have PL peaks at 508 nm, 443 nm, and 405 nm, photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQY) of 85%, 58% and 5%, and lifetimes of 18.98 ns, 18.97 ns, and 14.74 ns, respectively.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Size Driven Barrier To Chirality Reversal in Electric Control of Magnetic Vortices in Ferromagnetic Nanodiscs(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022) Aldulaimi, W. A. S.; Okatan, Mahmut Barış; Şendur, Kürşat; Onbaşlı, Mehmet Cengiz; Mısırlıoğlu, İbrahim Burç; 03.09. Department of Materials Science and Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyNew high density storage media and spintronic devices come about with a progressing demand for the miniaturization of ferromagnetic structures. Vortex ordering of magnetic dipoles in such structures has been repeatedly observed as a stable state, offering the possibility of chirality in these states as a means to store information at high density. Electric pulses and magnetoelectric coupling are attractive options to control the chirality of such states in a deterministic manner. Here, we demonstrate the chirality reversal of vortex states in ferromagnetic nanodiscs via pulsed electric fields using a micromagnetic approach and focus on the analysis of the energetics of the reversal process. A strong thickness dependence of the chirality reversal in the nanodiscs is found that emanates from the anisotropy of the demagnetizing fields. Our results indicate that chiral switching of the magnetic moments in thin discs can give rise to a transient vortex-antivortex lattice not observed in thicker discs. This difference in the chirality reversal mechanism emanates from profoundly different energy barriers to overcome in thin and thicker discs. We also report the polarity-chirality correlation of a vortex that appears to depend on the aspect ratio of the nanodiscs.
