  1. Eva Repiso Menendez Growth and hydrogenation of Sb/N materials for high efficiency mid-IR LEDs in pollutant gas detection

  2. Personal background Bachelor in Physics Oviedo University 4 months in Italian National Laboratory TASC Project: Self-assisted n-type GaAs nanowires grown by MBE M. Orru, E. Repiso et al. Adv. Funct. Mater. 26, 2836-2845 (2016)

  3. Personal background Masters in Energies and Fuels for the future AutonomaUniveristy of Madrid 6 months part time in Crystal Growth Laboratory Project: Simulation and growth in volume of CdZnTe single crystals CrysMAS simulation of a Vertical Gradient Freeze furnace

  4. WP 4 – Materials for environment (Eva Lancs., Mario Mont., Davide Nott.) Growth and hydrogenation of Sb/N materials for high efficiency mid-IR LEDs in pollutant gas detection Motivation for MIR LEDs gas detection CH4, CO2, CO…. - environmental pollution monitoring - optical gas sensing - chemical process control - medical diagnosis

  5. Mid-IR LED output power • Background – Mid-IR LEDs • Main challenges • Auger, SRH non-radiative recombination • Optical extraction • Approaches • Sb nanostructures QW & QD • Dilute N LED based CO2 gas sensor GSS Ltd.

  6. Experimental Techniques – skills acquired

  7. Results InAsSb/InAlAs type-I MQW Band diagram at 0 K Sample structure Electroluminescence with temperature I-V measurements of LEDs CO2 absorption

  8. Results InAsSb/InAlAs MQW Hydrogenated 90 K Electroluminescence dependence on hydrogenation dose 300 K Electroluminescence dependence on hydrogenation dose CO2 absorption CO2 absorption

  9. Results InAsSb/InAlAs MQW Hydrogenated 90K Electroluminescence dependence on hydrogenation dose Peak intensity Peak wavelength

  10. Results InSb/InAs type-II QDs InSb deposition time determines QDs size InAs cap temperature influences size and intermixing InAs @470°C InSb @430°C + InAs cap InAs @430°C Mono Layers of QDs from XRD InAs InSb QDs
