Here, we report a novel ultrasonic imaging device that can optically display an acoustic signal on the surface of a piezoelectric transducer. By fabricating an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) on top of a piezoelectric crystal (lead zirconate titanate, PZT), an acousto-optical piezoelectric OLED (p-OLED) transducer is realized, converting an acoustic wave profile directly to an optical image. Due to the integrated device architecture, the resulting p-OLED features a high acousto-optic conversion efficiency at the resonant ultrasound frequency, providing a piezoelectric field to drive the OLED. By incorporating an electrode array in the p-OLED, we demonstrate a novel tomographic ultrasound imaging device that is operated without a need for conventional signal processing.}, number={32}, journal={ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES}, author={Yu, Hyeonggeun and Kim, Jinwook and Kim, Howuk and Barange, Nilesh and Jiang, Xiaoning and So, Franky}, year={2020}, month={Aug}, pages={36409–36416} }

By fabricating OLEDs on corrugated substrates, the waveguide and SPP modes can be extracted by diffraction. However, corrugation does not always lead to an enhancement in out-coupling efficiency due to the reduction of the electrode reflectance and hence the cavity effects. Based on the results of our rigorous couple-wave analysis (RCWA) simulation, we found that the cavity effects can be partially recovered using a low index Teflon layer inserted between the ITO anode and the substrate due to the enhancement of the reflectance of the corrugated electrodes. To verify the simulation results, we fabricated corrugated OLEDs having a low-index Teflon interlayer with an EQE of 36%, which is 29% higher than an optimized planar OLED. By experimentally measuring the OLED air mode dispersion, we confirm the cavity emission of a corrugated OLED is enhanced by the low index layer.}, number={21}, journal={OPTICS EXPRESS}, author={Fu, Xiangyu and Chen, Yi-An and Shin, Dong-Hun and Mehta, Yash and Chen, I-Te and Barange, Nilesh and Zhu, Liping and Amoah, Stephen and Chang, Chih-Hao and So, Franky}, year={2020}, month={Oct}, pages={32214–32225} }

It has been a challenge to synthesize high quality PbS NPs with an absorption peak beyond 2000 nm. In this work, using PbS seed crystals with an absorption peak at 1960 nm, we report a successful synthesis of very large mono-dispersed PbS NPs having a diameter up to 16 nm by multiple injections. The resulting NPs have an absorption peak over 2500 nm with a small full-width-at-half-maximum (FWHM) of 24 meV. To demonstrate the applications of such large QDs, broadband heterojunction photodetectors are fabricated with the large PbS QDs of an absorption peak at 2100 nm. The resulting devices have an EQE of 25% (over 50% IQE) at 2100 nm corresponding to a responsivity of 0.385 A/W, and an EQE ~60% in the visible range.}, number={47}, journal={ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES}, author={Dong, Chen and Liu, Shuyi and Barange, Nilesh and Lee, Jaewoong and Pardue, Tyler and Yi, Xueping and Yin, Shichen and So, Franky}, year={2019}, month={Nov}, pages={44451–44457} }
