Abstract:
Inspired by circularly polarized luminescence (CPL), artificial CPL assembly has attracted intense attention. However, precise manipulation of chiral transfer from achiral and luminescent materials remains a formidable challenge. Two sandwiched carbazole and binaphthol derivatives composed of pyridine or trifluoride methyl benzene have been synthesized. Among R-1 and R-2, their spectra were found in the violet region, both in the solution and the film state. They exhibit the photoluminescence dissymmetry factors up to 1.4 × 10-3 for R-2 and an opposite value of -5.6 × 10-4 for R-1. Theoretical CPL and circular dichroism (CD) studies were in good agreement with the experimental data and deciphered their opposite signals by the transition electric and magnetic moment. Our study offers a strategy for studying the charge and chiral transfer.

Biasing of P-N Junction
In equilibrium, no external voltage is applied across the p-n junction. The depletion region is formed at the junction interface due to the diffusion of carriers, which leaves behind charged dopants, acceptors on the p-side, and donors on the n-side. These immobile charges create an electric field that prevents further diffusion of carriers. The related energy band...
