PbS-Doped Mesostructured Silica Films with High Optical Nonlinearity
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Mesostructured silica films have been doped with lead sulfide (PbS) nanocrystals by a two-step impregnation, using the mesopores as nanoreactors for PbS growth. Secondary ion mass spectrometry and transmission electron microscopy characterizations demonstrated nanocrystals growth inside the pores and throughout the film thickness, pointing out the feasibility of an impregnation-based synthesis made possible by the porous properties of mesoporous silica films. The mean particles diameter is 5 nm, which is compatible with the pore dimensions. The mesostructure order was retained after the growth of the nanocrystals, as pointed out by small-angle X-ray scattering measurements. Optical absorption and Z -scan measurements indicated that PbS nanoparticles show a quantum confinement effect, while the films are characterized by high nonlinearities of the optical response. The optical properties of this material can be usefully exploited in several nonlinear optical applications.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
