We report a simple and effective method for producing lanthanide ion-doped lithium-fluoride-based nanocrystals (YLiF4). We utilized those nanoparticles for up-conversion in fabricated perovskite solar cells. The obtained results shows that the up-conversio ...

Here, we introduce a method for the synthesis of atomically precise, supported, multiatom catalysts by liquid-phase atomic layer deposition. This technique is based on consecutive grafting reactions in mild conditions that build supported active sites atom ...

We report the first use of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) optical fiber-made probes for scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM). The sharp tips were prepared by chemical etching of the fibers in ethyl acetate, and the probes were prepared by proper gl ...

Inverted perovskite solar cells face performance limitations due to non-radiative recombination at the perovskite surfaces in devices, including functional layers. Advanced characterization and density functional theory reveal that phosphonic acids passivate perovskite surface defects, while piperazinium chloride mitigates interface recombination by improving energy level alignment, introducing a field effect, and homogenizing the surface. Together, the quasi-Fermi level splitting of the perovskite is homog

Fluorination of solvents, useful for non-aqueous lithium-based batteries, improves the electrochemical stability but decreases the ionic conductivity. Here, the authors report a targeted functionalization of an ether solvent to balance the electrolyte ioni ...

Combining the two technologies of tandem solar cells and bifacial solar cells has a great potential to maximize energy harvesting while minimizing material and surface usage. Mid-bandgap perovskites (1.50–1.60 eV) are important for fulfilling current match ...

Predictable and tunable etching of angstrom-scale nanopores in single-layer graphene (SLG) can allow one to realize high-performance gas separation even from similar-sized molecules. We advance toward this goal by developing two etching regimes for SLG whe ...

We report the growth of ultrasharp carbon whiskers onto apertured near-field optical glass fiber probes. The ultrasharp carbon whiskers are produced by the electron-assisted dissociation of residual oil vapors present in the vacuum chamber during the elect ...
