Exploring Cs2AgBiBr6 halide double perovskite as a lead-free emissive material for perovskite LEDs Kamal Kumar Jain, Sarita Yadav, Saral K Gupta, C M S Negi Physica Scripta, 2025 Numerical simulations were performed to evaluate the suitability of cesium silver bismuth bromide (Cs 2 AgBiBr 6 ) halide double perovskite as an efficient emissive layer (EML) for perovskite-based LEDs (PeLEDs). The study investigates various hole-injection layer (HIL) materials, revealing their substantial impact on device performance. Hole mobility and energy barriers at the metal/HIL and HIL/EML interfaces are identified as key determinants of optoelectronic efficiency. Among the tested HILs, Cu 2 O delivered the best performance, achieving a maximum EQE of 27.36% and current efficiency (CE) of 51.84 cd A −1 , followed by NiO (EQE: 9.81%, CE: 47.32 cd A −1 ) and CBTS (EQE: 1.14%, CE: 3.96 cd A −1 ), owing to its high hole mobility and balanced carrier injection. HIL thickness was found to have negligible influence on PeLEDs characteristics. Doping-dependent analysis shows that PeLEDs performance declines gradually with acceptor concentration up to 10 18 cm −3 but deteriorates sharply beyond this point, while donor doping enhances performance up to 10 19 cm −3 before Auger recombination becomes dominant. These trends are mainly ascribed to shifts in the recombination zone with doping variation. Additionally, increasing defect density markedly reduces luminance and current efficiency due to enhanced Shockley–Read–Hall (SRH) recombination, which lowers IQE and EQE by promoting non-radiative pathways over radiative recombination. This work provides valuable insights to strengthen research efforts on Pb-free PeLEDs in the field of environmentally friendly optoelectronics.
Synergistic effects of N719 and N3 dyes in DSSCs with gel polymer electrolyte and graphite counter electrode Ritu, Saral Kumar Gupta, C.M.S. Negi Next Materials, 2025 Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) offer a low-cost and eco-friendly alternative for next-generation photovoltaics, but their efficiency is often limited by the choice of dyes, electrolytes, and counter electrodes. In this work, we demonstrate the synergistic impact of co-sensitization with N719 and N3 dyes on the photovoltaic performance of DSSCs. Unlike conventional DSSCs employing platinum as the counter electrode and liquid electrolytes, pencil graphite was utilized here as a cost-effective and sustainable counter electrode, while a PVDF-HFP-based gel polymer electrolyte prepared via the solution-casting method was employed as the quasi-solid-state electrolyte. UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy revealed broadened and red-shifted absorption for the co-sensitized system, indicating enhanced light harvesting. Furthermore, the co-sensitized dye/TiO 2 film exhibited reduced energetic disorder and a lower density of localized tail states, as evidenced by its lowest Urbach energy. FESEM and EDX confirmed uniform dye loading and improved surface coverage, while Raman spectroscopy indicated stable dye–TiO 2 interactions. Photovoltaic measurements showed that the co-sensitized DSSC achieved the highest PCE of 5.82 %, outperforming single-dye devices (N3: 4.19 %, N719: 3.83 %) due to synergistic spectral coverage, improved electron injection, and suppressed recombination. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy further corroborated these findings by revealing reduced charge-transfer resistance and improved ionic diffusion in the co-sensitized device. These results demonstrate that combining co-sensitization with a quasi-solid-state electrolyte and a low-cost graphite counter electrode provides an effective pathway toward affordable and sustainable DSSCs • A low-cost, quasi-solid-state DSSC, with pencil graphite CE was developed. • Co-sensitization with N719 and N3 dyes significantly enhanced light harvesting. • The co-sensitized DSSC exhibited the highest PCE (5.82 %). • EIS analysis corelated well with the photovoltaic performance of the DSSCs.
HfO2/SiO2 spacer oxide width optimization for enhanced terahertz performance and short-channel integrity in sub-nm silicon based junctionless dual metal gate-all-around FET architectures: A TCAD approach Shekhar Yadav, Pooja Srivastava, C.M.S. Negi Nano Trends, 2025 This research evaluates the suitability of silicon-based Gate-All-Around Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (GAA MOSFET) architectures with HfO 2 /SiO 2 oxide stack spacers for high-frequency applications. Comprehensive analyses of all essential parameters, including transconductance (g m ), unity gain cut-off frequency (f T ), drain conductance (g d ), intrinsic gain (g m /g d ), transconductance efficiency (g m /I D ), Ion to Ioff ratio (I on /I off ), gate capacitance (C gg ), and transfer characteristics, were conducted through rigorous TCAD simulations. To ensure the structure's scalability and demonstrate short-channel immunity, Drain Induced Barrier Lowering (DIBL) analysis was performed. Additionally, subthreshold swing (SS) analysis was conducted to prove the power efficiency of the device. The analyses conducted are crucial for evaluating the characteristics of devices when scaled to the nanoscale dimensions. A spacer oxide, composed of a stack of conventional material silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) and the high-k material hafnium oxide (HfO 2 ), was incorporated to enhance device performance by improving gate control. It was established that increasing the length of the spacer oxide enhances the effectiveness of the devices in high-frequency ranges. The assessed structures are employed with the Junctionless MOSFET architectures to demonstrate the feasibility of simpler fabrication and improved performance. The results show that the best width for the spacer oxide has a big impact on how well sub-100 nm GAA MOSFETs work at high frequencies, resist short-channel effects, and can be made smaller, making them a good choice for current and future high-frequency electronic devices. These findings provide valuable insights into the development and design of GAA MOSFETs for delivering improved high-speed and low-power devices.
Optimizing the structure, morphological and optical properties of Co-doped CDS, nanoparticles synthesized at various doping concentration and design sensors for optimal application , R. Rajeev, C. M. S. Negi, and Chalcogenide Letters, 2025 Cobalt-doped cadmium sulphide nanoparticles of semiconductors (CDs: Co NPs) were synthesised using various cobalt concentrations utilising a microwave-assisted approach. Debye-Scherer equation revealed the nanoparticles' size range to be between 2 and 4 nm. Diffraction from X-rays revealed a zinc mix structure. According to the structure in the optical bandgap energies indicates that, doping has systematically raised the bandgap energy as the doping concentration raises. The composition of the nanoparticles which was verified by EDAX, validated the effective integration of cobalt into the CdS structure. The detection of different functional and vibrational groups was performed at room temperature over a 400-4000 cm1 range using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Comprehensive structural data including shape of nanoparticles and lattice characteristics were provided by HRTEM. Cobalt-doped cadmium Sulphide (CdS: Co) is a feasible material for optoelectronic sensors, due to its improved light response capabilities and configurable bandgap.The present research intends to optimize the structural and optoelectronic characteristics of CdS: Co through controlled doping and fabrication processes to create customized bandgap and to design sensors for appropriate use in a variety of spectrum areas.
