Orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films have been synthesized using the sol-gel spin coating . Influences of post-annealing temperatures on crystal structure, morphology, negative thermal expansion (NTE) and optical performances of the thin films were studied using XRD , SEM, XPS, high-temperature XRD and UV–Vis–NIR spectrophotometer. XRD and SEM results show that as-prepared thin film is in an amorphous state with a smooth and dense surface. Orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films were obtained after post-annealing in 550–750 °C. The higher the annealing temperature in 550–750 °C, the better the crystallinity of orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films . In addition, the grain size of the In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin film also grows as the annealing temperature increases. The resulting orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films exhibit anisotropic NTE. Its volumetric coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) is −3.44 × 10 −6 °C −1 , while the CTEs in a -, b - and c -axis directions are −4.70 × 10 −6 °C −1 , 5.37 × 10 −6 °C −1 , and -4.10 × 10 −6 °C −1 in 25–700 °C, respectively. In addition, the transmittance of orthorhombic In 0.5 Sc 1.5 Mo 3 O 12 thin films post-annealed at 750 °C is around 87.75 %–95.03 %.

SrTiO 3 is a promising thermoelectric material for applications in harsh environments, owing to its excellent thermoelectric (TE) properties and high-temperature stability. The effect of annealing in carbon powders on the TE properties of SrTiO 3−δ in the [111] direction was experimentally investigated and analysed using first-principles calculation. The electrical conductivity of the SrTiO 3−δ single crystals in the [111] direction increases with an increase in annealing temperature in the range of 1573–1673 K, which is opposite to that in the [510] direction as shown in a previous experiment. This is attributed to the different variation trend of carrier concentration. First-principle calculation results show that the carrier concentration in the [111] direction increases with increasing oxygen vacancy concentration, but it is the opposite in the [510] direction. Strong anisotropy of carrier concentration should be caused by the difference in atomic arrangement, making difference in the amount of free electrons that maybe constrained at high oxygen vacancy in different directions. Although the SrTiO 3−δ single crystal annealed at 1573 K shows a lower electrical conductivity, it obtains higher power factor with the maximum value of 2.24 mW m −1 K −2 at 323 K, which is predominantly due to its higher effective mass. It also yields the highest ZT value of 0.18 at 873 K owing to the lower thermal conductivity . The results of this study are imperative for the design and development of perovskite TE materials.

Orthorhombic Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 films have been successfully prepared via spin coating technique followed by annealing at 500–750 °C. The phase composition, microstructure, morphology and negative thermal behavior of the synthesized Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 films were investigated. XRD and XPS analysis indicate that as-deposited film is amorphous . Orthorhombic Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 films can be prepared after post-annealing at 500–750 °C for 1 h. The crystallinity of Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 films gradually improved with the increase of post-annealing temperature. SEM analysis shows as-deposited film is smooth and compact, and the grain size of Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 film grows up as the post-annealing temperature increases. Variable temperature XRD analysis demonstrates that the synthesized orthorhombic Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 films show stable thermo-chemical and anisotropic NTE property in 25–700 °C. The corresponding coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) of the orthorhombic Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 film in a, b and c directions are −6.68 × 10 −6 °C −1 , 5.08 × 10 −6 °C −1 and −4.76 × 10 −6 °C −1 , respectively. The whole unit cell of the orthorhombic Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 film shrinks and the volumetric CTE of the Sc 2 Mo 3 O 12 thin film is −6.36 × 10 −6 °C −1 , and the linear CTE is about −2.12 × 10 −6 °C −1 ( α v = 3 α l ).

While red is one of the primary colors for display applications, the investigation of visible red emitting perovskites, particularly 2D perovskites, is relatively limited. In this work, we demonstrate a single-phase Ruddlesden–Popper quasi-2D (C3H7NH3)2CsPb2I7 perovskite for red color LEDs. Through increasing the annealing temperature of (C3H7NH3)2CsPb2I7 perovskite thin films, we have successfully achieved tunable emission wavelengths from 654 to 691 nm. Equally important, for all the quasi-2D perovskite LEDs, once the annealing temperature is fixed, the emission spectrum is independent of bias voltages, which is very important for their use in lighting and displays. With the analysis of the crystallinity, morphology, and thermodynamic stability of the quasi-2D perovskite, we find that the obtained (C3H7NH3)2CsPb2I7 perovskite is a single-phase quasi-2D perovskite with only n = 2 phase. Besides, we found that the red shifting of emission wavelength is caused by the increase of perovskite crystal size while increasing the annealing temperature. Our results also show that the temperature-induced color tunability can be applied to a series of quasi-2D perovskites with different alkylammonium cations. Importantly, we find that short alkylammonium spacers offer better electrical properties for efficient current transport and high performance in LED applications. This work contributes to controlling the optoelectronic properties of quasi-2D perovskites via controlling their crystal growth as well as paves the way to realize practical lighting and display applications of perovskite LEDs.
