Columbia Engineering researchers first to create a single-molecule diode--the ultimate in miniaturization for electronic devices--with potential for real-world applications Under the direction of Latha Venkataraman, associate professor of applied physics at Columbia Engineering,
researchers have designed a new technique to create a single-molecule diode, and, in doing so, they have developed molecular diodes that perform 50 times better than all prior designs.
Venkataraman's group is the first to develop a single-molecule diode that may have real-world technological applications for nanoscale devices.
Their paper,"Single-Molecule Diodes with High On-Off Ratios through Environmental Control""is published May 25 in Nature Nanotechnology."
"Our new approach created a single-molecule diode that has a high(>250) rectification and a high"on"current (0. 1 micro Amps),"says Venkataraman."
"Constructing a device where the active elements are only a single molecule has long been a tantalizing dream in nanoscience.
The idea of creating a single-molecule diode was suggested by Arieh Aviram and Mark Ratner who theorized in 1974 that a molecule could act as a rectifier, a one-way conductor of electric current.

Since a diode acts as an electricity valve, its structure needs to be asymmetric so that electricity flowing in one direction experiences a different environment than electricity flowing in the other direction.
In order to develop a single-molecule diode, researchers have designed simply molecules that have asymmetric structures.""While such asymmetric molecules do indeed display some diode-like properties,
they are not effective, "explains Brian Capozzi, a Phd student working with Venkataraman and lead author of the paper."

Since then, development of functional single-molecule electronic devices has been a major pursuit with diodes-one of the most widely used electronic components-being at the top of the list.

#Next-generation illumination using silicon quantum dot-based white-blue LED (Nanowerk News) A silicon quantum dot (QD)- based hybrid inorganic/organic light-emitting diode (LED) that exhibits white-blue electroluminescence
and their collaborators (Applied Physics Letters,"White-blue electroluminescence from a Si quantum dot hybrid light-emitting diode").
"Professor Ken-ichi Saitow, Natural science Center for Basic Research and development, Hiroshima University and Graduate student Yunzi Xin, Graduate school of Science, Hiroshima University, have fabricated an Si QD hybrid LED.
A hybrid LED is expected to be a next-generation illumination device for producing flexible lighting and display,
and this is achieved for the Si QD-based white-blue LED. The Si QD hybrid LED was developed using a simple method;
almost all processes were based solution and conducted at ambient temperature and pressure. Conductive polymer solutions and a colloidal Si QD solution were deposited on the glass substrate.
The current and optical power densities of the LED are, respectively, 280 and 350 times greater than those reported previously for such a device at the same voltage (6 V). In addition,
the active area of the LED is 4 mm2, which is 40 times larger than that of a typical commercial LED;
the thickness of the LED is 0. 5 mm. Professor Saitow stated,"QD LED has attracted significant attention as a next-generation LED.
Although several breakthroughs will be required for achieving implementation, a QD-based hybrid LED allows us to give so fruitful feature that we cannot imagine."

the researchers said: the color of fluorescence shifts into the highly desirable, blue spectral range and the capacity to transport electrons is improved substantially.
Wireless data transfer using light has already been demonstrated at blistering gigabit speeds using white LED LIGHTS.
Lasers are already an improvement over LEDS, because Li-Fi works by reading slight modulations of light,
and lasers can be tuned far more finely than LEDS. White light allows those signals to be transmitted over multiple areas of the color spectrum

Seunghyup Yoo (Electrical engineering) have succeeded in developing LEDS based on graphene quantum dots. Highly pure GQDS were synthesized by an environmentally-friendly method designed by Prof.
Yoo's group brought their OLED expertise to create GQD-based LEDS. The GQDS with high luminance tunability and efficiency were synthesized by a route based on graphite intercalation compounds (GICS.
GQDS were used then as emitters in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDS) in order to identify the GQD's key optical properties.
the constructed GQD LEDS exhibited luminance of 1, 000 cd/m2, which is well over the typical brightness levels of the portable displays used in smartphones.
for the first time, demonstrated that GQDS can be applied to optical devices by fabricating GQD-based LEDS with meaningful brightness.
Although, the efficiency of GQD-based LEDS is currently less than those of conventional LEDS, they are expected to improve in the near future with an optimized material process and device structure.
