Interface connection of functionalized carbon nanotubes for efficient and stable perovskite solar cells

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Ruiyuan Hu, Jianxing Xia

The ionic defects of hetero-junction interfaces always attract and trap carriers via surface electrostatic forces, which are crucial for the efficiency and intrinsic stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Herein, functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) ...

Foldable Hole-Transporting Materials for Merging Electronic States between Defective and Perfect Perovskite Sites

Keith Gregory Brooks, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Paul Joseph Dyson, Kasparas Rakstys, Yi Zhang, Hiroyuki Kanda, Ruiyuan Hu, Jianxing Xia, Qurat Ul Ain

Defective and perfect sites naturally exist within electronic semiconductors, and considerable efforts to reduce defects to improve the performance of electronic devices, especially in hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (ABX(3)), are undertaken. Herein, ...

Electron-phonon driven unconventional superconductivity: The role of small Fermi energies and of nonadiabatic processes

Claudio Grimaldi

The very concept of high-T-c superconductivity has originated from the discovery of superconductivity in copper oxides by Bednorz and Muller in 1986. Soon after their discovery, cuprates were recognized as undoubtedly complex and radically unconventional s ...

Magnon-phonon interactions enhance the gap at the Dirac point in the spin-wave spectra of CrI3 two-dimensional magnets

Iurii Timrov

Recent neutron-diffraction experiments in honeycomb CrI3 quasi-2D ferromagnets have evinced the existence of a gap at the Dirac point in their spin-wave spectra. The existence of this gap has been attributed to strong in-plane Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya or Kita ...

Synthesis and Characterization of Functionalized Spacer Cations for the Incorporation in Layered Perovskites

Simon Nussbaum

Layered hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite (LHOIP) materials are an emerging class of semiconductors endorsed as a more stable alternative compared to the more widely investigated 3D hybrid organic-inorganic halide perovskites (HOIP). Consisting of altern ...

Berry curvature dipole generation and helicity-to-spin conversion at symmetry-mismatched heterointerfaces

Peng Chen, Xupeng Yang

The Berry curvature dipole (BCD) is a key parameter that describes the geometric nature of energy bands in solids. It defines the dipole-like distribution of Berry curvature in the band structure and plays a key role in emergent nonlinear phenomena. The th ...

Unraveling the Effect of the Chemical and Structural Composition of ZnxNi1-xFe2O4 on the Electron Transfer at the Electrochemical Interface

Sandro Carrara, Mallikarjun Madagalam

In order to deepen the understanding of the role of transition metal oxides in electron transfer at the electrochemical interface, the performance of ZnxNi1-xFe2O4 (x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1) nanomaterials in electrochemical sensing is studied. Nanomate ...

Electrical detection of the flat-band dispersion in van der Waals field-effect structures

Andras Kis, Oleg Yazyev, Fedele Tagarelli, Kristians Cernevics, Zhe Sun, Gabriele Pasquale, Edoardo Lopriore

Two-dimensional flat-band systems have recently attracted considerable interest due to the rich physics unveiled by emergent phenomena and correlated electronic states at van Hove singularities. However, the difficulties in electrically detecting the flat- ...

Automated mixing of maximally localized Wannier functions into target manifolds

Nicola Marzari, Giovanni Pizzi, Junfeng Qiao

Maximally localized Wannier functions (MLWFs) are widely used in electronic-structure calculations. We have recently developed automated approaches to generate MLWFs that represent natural tight-binding sets of atomic-like orbitals; these describe accurate ...

Characterization of two electronic subsystems in cuprates through optical conductivity

Neven Barisic, Ana Akrap, Edoardo Martino

Understanding the physical properties of unconventional superconductors as well as of other correlated materials presents a formidable challenge. Their unusual evolution with doping, frequency, and temperature has frequently led to non-Fermi-liquid (non-FL ...

Hierarchy of quasisymmetries and degeneracies in the CoSi family of chiral crystal materials

Yi-Chiang Sun, Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Chunyu Guo

In materials, certain approximated symmetry operations can exist in a lower-order approximation of the effective model but are good enough to influence the physical responses of the system, and these approximated symmetries were recently dubbed "quasisymme ...

Correlated insulator collapse due to quantum avalanche via in-gap ladder states

Xi Chen, Camille Didier Georges Aron

The significant discrepancy observed between the predicted and experimental switching fields in correlated insulators under a DC electric field far-from-equilibrium necessitates a reevaluation of current microscopic understanding. Here we show that an elec ...
