RESUMEN

The threshold carrier density, conventionally evaluated from optical pumping, is a key reference parameter towards electrically pumped lasers with the widely acknowledged assumption that optically excited charge carriers relax to the band edge through an ultrafast process. However, the characteristically slow carrier cooling in perovskites challenges this assumption. Here, we investigate the optical pumping of state-of-the-art bromide- and iodine-based perovskites. We find that the threshold decreases by one order of magnitude with decreasing excitation energy from 3.10 eV to 2.48 eV for methylammonium lead bromide perovskite (MAPbBr3), indicating that the low-energy photon excitation facilitates faster cooling and hence enables efficient carrier accumulation for population inversion. Our results are then interpreted due to the coupling of phonon scattering in connection with the band structure of perovskites. This effect is further verified in the two-photon pumping process, where the carriers relax to the band edge with a smaller difference in phonon momentum that speeds up the carrier cooling process. Furthermore, by extrapolating the optical pumping threshold to the band edge excitation as an analog of the electrical carrier injection to the perovskite, we obtain a critical threshold carrier density of ∼1.9 × 1017 cm-3, which is one order of magnitude lower than that estimated from the conventional approach. Our work thus highlights the feasibility of metal halide perovskites for electrically pumped lasers.

RESUMEN

AIMS: This study aimed to investigate the association of Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) C1772T and G1790A single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with: incidence, clinical type, severity of coronary atherosclerosis and coronary collaterals of coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS: The clinical data and genomic DNA were gathered in 958 subjects, including 560 controls and 398 patients with CAD. CAD was confirmed with coronary angiography (CAG). The genotypes for two SNPs were determined by high resolution melting after PCR amplification. RESULTS: Neither the HIF-1α C1772T nor the G1790A genotype was significantly associated with CAD and, no gene-gene or gene-environmental interactions were identified. However, both HIF-1α C1772T and G1790A (P<0.05) alleles were associated with clinical type and formation of coronary collaterals (P<0.05). Patients carrying genotype CT (P=0.019, OR=4.905,91, 95% CI: 1.355-17.761) and GA (P=0.026, OR=3.052, 95% CI: 1.180-7.892) had significantly higher stable angina pectoris (SAP) than unstable angina pectoris (UAP) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The presence of HIF-1 genotype CT (P=0.016, OR=13.373, 95% CI: 15.468-32.709) and GA (P=0.001, OR=19.741, 95% CI: 8.125-47.966) predicted lower collateral formation and severity of CAD secondary to the absence of collaterals (r=0.242, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that functional polymorphisms in the HIF-1α gene do not modify CAD risk but they are associated with the formation of coronary collaterals and clinical presentation of CAD.
