TL;DR: It is demonstrated that ultraviolet Raman spectroscopy is an effective technique to measure the transition temperature (Tc) in ferro electric ultrathin films and superlattices and reveals the essential roles of electrical and mechanical boundary conditions for nanoscale ferroelectricity.
Abstract: We demonstrated that ultraviolet Raman spectroscopy is an effective technique to measure the transition temperature (Tc) in ferroelectric ultrathin films and superlattices. We showed that one-unit-cell-thick BaTiO3 layers in BaTiO3/SrTiO3 superlattices are not only ferroelectric (with Tc as high as 250 kelvin) but also polarize the quantum paraelectric SrTiO3 layers adjacent to them. Tc was tuned by approximately 500 kelvin by varying the thicknesses of the BaTiO3 and SrTiO3 layers, revealing the essential roles of electrical and mechanical boundary conditions for nanoscale ferroelectricity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the electronic structure of bilayer graphene was investigated from a resonant Raman study of the band using different laser excitation energies, revealing the difference of the effective masses of electrons and holes.
Abstract: The electronic structure of bilayer graphene is investigated from a resonant Raman study of the ${G}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ band using different laser excitation energies. The values of the parameters of the Slonczewski-Weiss-McClure model for bilayer graphene are obtained from the analysis of the dispersive behavior of the Raman features, and reveal the difference of the effective masses of electrons and holes. The splitting of the two TO phonon branches in bilayer graphene is also obtained from the experimental data. Our results have implications for bilayer graphene electronic devices.

TL;DR: In this paper, the photovoltaic efficiency via exposure of organic poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) devices to solvent vapor at room temperature is reported.
Abstract: Improvement of the photovoltaic efficiency via exposure of organic poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) devices to solvent vapor at room temperature is reported. In situ photoluminescence (PL) and Raman spectroscopy, in conjunction with ex situ optical absorption and atomic force microscopy, have been used to provide insight into the nanoscale morphological changes occurring during solvent vapor annealing. We found that in 1 : 1 composites of P3HT : PCBM, suppression of PL, narrowing in line-width of the 1442 cm−1 P3HT Raman peak, and strong modifications in the optical absorption spectra were observed during solvent vapor annealing, while minimal changes occurred in pure P3HT films. We attribute these spectral modifications to de-mixing of PCBM and subsequent stacking of P3HT in coplanar conjugated segments, similar to what is observed during thermal annealing.
