    Investigation of hole-injection in ?-NPD using capacitance and impedance spectroscopy techniques with F4TCNQ as hole-injection layer: Initial studies
    (Academic Press, 2014) Fernandes, J.M.; Raveendra Kiran, M.R.; Ulla, H.; Satyanarayan, M.N.; Umesh, G.
    The charge accumulation leading to injection at the organic interface in the sequentially doped hole-only device structure is studied using capacitance and impedance based spectroscopic techniques. In this paper, we investigate the role of p-type dopant 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4TCNQ) in the charge transport properties of N,N'-Di(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-(1,1?-biphenyl)-4,4?-diamine (?-NPD) through sequential deposition. We show that the hole injection into ?-NPD increases with the increase of interlayer (F4TCNQ) thickness by correlating the current density-voltage, capacitance-voltage, capacitance-frequency and impedance measurements. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

    Investigation of hole transport in ?-NPD using impedance spectroscopy with F4TCNQ as hole-injection layer
    (Academic Press, 2015) Fernandes, J.M.; Raveendra Kiran, M.R.; Ulla, H.; Satyanarayan, M.N.; Umesh, G.
    The charge carrier transport is studied in N,N?-di(1-naphthyl)-N,N?-diphenyl-(1,1?-biphenyl)-4,4?-diamine (?-NPD) with the incorporation of sequentially doped p-type dopant 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4TCNQ) as hole-injection layer in hole-only device structures. The field dependent mobility of the charge carriers is determined using frequency dependent capacitance, conductance and impedance methods by varying the thickness of ?-NPD. The Poole-Frenkel zero-field mobility and the Poole-Frenkel coefficient thus obtained for each device in all the three methods is found to be almost constant. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

    Effect of Erioglaucine dye dopant on the structural, optical, mechanical, electrical and nonlinear properties of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate single crystal
    (Elsevier B.V., 2020) Fernandes, J.M.; Mahendra, K.; Udayashankar, N.K.
    The structural, optical, mechanical, electrical and nonlinear properties of standard Ammonium Dihydrogen Phosphate (NH4H2PO4, ADP) single crystals incorporating organic Erioglaucine dye dopant are presented. The effect of Erioglaucine dye dopant at varied concentration on these properties has been investigated through measurement of powder X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), UV–Vis and photoluminescence spectroscopy, Vickers microhardness, light dependent I–V measurements and Second Harmonic Generation studies. These measurements reveal that doping with increasing dye concentration of Erioglaucine leads to change in properties of the ADP single crystals, making them suitable for optoelectronic applications. The Erioglaucine doped ADP single crystals were grown using solvent evaporation technique at room temperature. Optical properties like absorbance and emission of these crystals are determined using UV–vis and photoluminescence spectroscopy, respectively. Optical bandgap and photoluminescence of the crystals are found to increase with dye doping, indicating their suitability in photonic applications. The mechanical properties of the crystals are determined using Vickers microhardness measurement technique. Light dependent I–V measurements exhibit negative photoconductivity behavior of the ADP crystals. However, the current through the crystals is observed to increase with increase in doping concentration of the Erioglaucine dye. Second Harmonic Generation studies show enhancement in nonlinearity for doped crystals. Our experiments indicate gradual variance in the crystallinity, emission, hardness, conductivity and nonlinearity of the sample with change in dye concentration. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.

    An insight into noticeable dielectric response and effect of fe doping on photocatalytic efficiency (visible light) of ZnO nanoparticles synthesized through solution precipitation for harmful textile dye degradation
    (Springer Science and Business Media B.V., 2024) Mahendra, K.; Fernandes, J.M.; James, A.; B.s, N.; Pattar, J.; Sunitha, D.V.; Gopal, K.; Udayashankar, N.K.
    Iron (Fe)-incorporated zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized via chemical precipitation technique and studied using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. PXRD analysis reveals a hexagonal wurtzite structure for all the synthesized samples. UV–visible measurements demonstrate a reduction in the bandgap of ZnO with an increase in Fe concentration. The ZnO and Fe-incorporated ZnO NPs are studied for the degradation of organic textile dye under visible light irradiation. All the nanoparticles are thoroughly investigated using impedance and dielectric measurements in the frequency range of 20 Hz to 1 MHz. The results obtained are compared, interpreted, and presented in this paper. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. 2024.
