Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Optical Dynamics at the Au/Znpc Interfaces(Univ Fed Sao Carlos, dept Engenharia Materials, 2020) Qasrawi, A. F.; Zyoud, Hadeel M.In this work, the optical dynamics and the structural properties of the zinc phthalocyanine which are coated onto 150 nm thick Au substrates are studied by the X-ray diffraction and optical spectrophotometry techniques. The Au/ZnPc interfaces appears to be strongly affected by the large lattice mismatches at the interface. It is observed that the coating ZnPc onto Au substrates increases the light absorbability by 4.7 and 128.2 times in the visible and infrared regions of light, respectively. Au substrates activated the free carrier absorption mechanism in the ZnPc thin films in the infrared range of light. In addition, the transparent Au substrates forced narrowing the energy band gap in both of the Q and B bands. It also increased the dielectric constant value by similar to 3.5 times in the IR range. The enhancements in the optical properties of ZnPc that resulted from the thin Au substrates make the ZnPc more suitable for optoelectronic, nonlinear optical applications and for electromagnetic energy storage in the infrared range of light.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Dielectric Dispersion at the Mn/Znpc Interfaces(Wiley-v C H verlag Gmbh, 2020) Qasrawi, Atef F.; Zyoud, Hadeel M.Herein, the effects of manganese transparent (150 nm) substrates on the structural, nonlinear optical, and dielectric properties of zinc phthalocyanine are explored. ZnPc thin films are observed to exhibit deformed crystal structure associated with remarkable enhancement in the light absorbability by 21 times at 2.62 eV and by 173 times in the near-infrared (NIR) region of light upon replacement of glass by transparent Mn substrates. The Mn layer also causes a redshift in the energy bandgap, allows generation of free carrier absorption process and increases the dielectric constant by more than 169% in the NIR region. The interaction between the manganese substrates with the organic ZnPc thin layers decreases the free holes density, widens the plasmon frequency range, and improves the drift mobility of holes. The nonlinear dielectric response with the highly improved light absorbability in the NIR range of light nominates the Mn/ZnPc thin films for optoelectronic applications.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Ytterbium Induced Structural Phase Transitions and Their Effects on the Optical and Electrical Properties of Znpc Thin Films(Springer, 2020) Qasrawi, A. F.; Zyoud, Hadeel M.In this work, the effects of ytterbium substrates of thicknesses of 150 (Yb-150) and 1000 nm (Yb-1000) on the structural, optical and electrical properties of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) are investigated. While the Yb-150/ZnPc exhibited strained monoclinic structure, the Yb-1000/ZnPc thin films are observed to exhibit phase transitions from monoclinic to triclinic structure. Analysis which targeted observatories of the effects of the Yb-150 substrate on the optical properties indicated that the transparent Yb-150 substrate enhanced the light absorbability by more than 11 times at 1.27 eV. On the other hand, the impedance spectroscopy measurements on the nontransparent Yb-1000/ZnPc/Ag sandwiched structures have shown that these devices could exhibit negative capacitance (NC) effect in the frequency domain of 0.244-1.800 GHz. The NC effect is associated with resonance-anti-resonance response at 0.235 and 0.244 GHz, respectively. The structural, optical and electrical properties of the Yb/ZnPc interfaces indicate its applicability as optoelectronic and/or radio/microwave components.
