Photon Upconversion in a Vapor Deposited 2D Inorganic–Organic Semiconductor Heterostructure
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Energy transfer processes may be engineered in van der Waals heterostructures by taking advantage of the atomically abrupt, Å-scale, and topologically tailorable interfaces within them. Here, we prepare heterostructures comprised of 2D WSe 2 monolayers interfaced with dibenzotetraphenylperiflanthene (DBP)-doped rubrene, an organic semiconductor capable of triplet fusion. We fabricate these heterostructures entirely through vapor deposition methods. Time-resolved and steady-state photoluminescence measurements reveal rapid subnanosecond quenching of WSe 2 emission by rubrene and fluorescence from guest DBP molecules at 612 nm (λ exc = 730 nm), thus providing clear evidence of photon upconversion. The dependence of the upconversion emission on excitation intensity is consistent with a triplet fusion mechanism, and maximum efficiency (linear regime) of this process occurs at threshold intensities as low as 110 mW/cm 2, which is comparable to the integrated solar irradiance. This study highlights the potential for advanced optoelectronic applications employing vdWHs which leverage strongly bound excitons in monolayer TMDs and organic semiconductors.

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; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
