In this work, we synthesized CuInSe 2 quantum dots (CISe QDs) and applied them to perovskite solar cells (PSCs) as an inorganic hole-transporting material (HTM). A power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 12.8% was achieved for the PSCs using CISe QDs as the HTM, which is the highest value reported to date for devices with a Cu-based chalcopyrite semiconductor as HTM. More importantly, the stability of PSCs with CISe QDs was significantly improved compared with that of the devices using spiro-OMeTAD as the HTM. These results demonstrate that CISe QDs are a promising inorganic HTM for PSCs with long-term stability and low cost.

To address the large structural and volume changes of commercial WO 3 during charge/discharge, which make this material unsuitable for use in Li-ion batteries (LIBs), we herein prepared oxygen deficient WO 3- x nanosheets on a large scale by thermal treatment of ammonium paratungstate in a reducing atmosphere followed by sonication and freeze-drying. The above nanosheets were employed as LIB anode materials and exhibited a specific capacity and cycling stability significantly exceeding those of oxygen-deficient WO 3- x nanoparticles and commercial WO 3 . In addition, we investigated the effect of nanosheet loading on electrode performance, demonstrating that the best results (Li storage capacity of ∼628 mAh g −1 after 100 cycles at 100 mA g −1 ) were obtained at a nanosheet content of 20 wt%. This excellent performance was ascribe to the good exposure of defects caused by the comparatively small size of WO 3- x nanosheets , which resulted in an increased number of sites and diffusion paths available for Li-ion storage and transfer. The novel electrode-optimized strategy may be extended to the fabrication of other electrodes that use nanomaterials as active substances due to its superior comprehensive performance and low cost.

Traditionally polyvinylidene fluoride membranes have been used in applications such as membrane distillation , wastewater treatment , desalination and separator fabrication. Within this work we demonstrate that a novel carbon nanofiber/polyvinylidene fluoride (CNF/PVDF) composite membrane can be used as an interlayer for Lithium Sulfur (Li S) batteries yielding both high capacity and long cycling life. This PVDF membrane is shown to effectively separate dissolved lithium polysulfide with the high electronic conductivity CNF not only reducing the internal resistance in the sulfur cathode but also helping immobilize the polysulfide through its abundant nanospaces. The resulting Li S battery assembled with the CNF/PVDF composite membrane effectively solves the polysulfide permeation problem and exhibits excellent electrochemical performance. It is further shown that the CNF/PVDF electrode has an excellent cycling stability and retains a capacity of 768.6 mAh g −1 with a coulombic efficiency above 99% over 200 cycles at 0.5C, which is more than twice that of a cell without CNF/PVDF (374 mAh g −1 ). In addition, the low-cost raw materials and the simple preparation process of CNF/PVDF composite membrane is also amenable for industrial production.

In this paper, graphene oxide (GO) was functionalized with a hyperbranched cyclotriphosphazene polymer, which was synthesized by the repeated reactions of hexachlorotriphosphazene with hexamethylenediamine. Subsequently, the resultant functionalized GO was incorporated into dicyclopentadiene bisphenol dicyanate ester (DCPDCE) to prepare composites. Fourier-transform infrared spectra, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and transmission electron spectroscopy were employed to examine the surface functionalization of GO. The effects of functionalized GO on the curing reactivity, mechanical, dielectric, thermal and water resistent properties of DCPDCE resin were investigated systematically. Results show that the addition of modified GO can facilitate the curing reaction of DCPDCE. Meanwhile, the appropriate content of modified GO can enhance the mechanical properties including impact and flexural strengths of DCPDCE resin. When modified GO content is 0.6 wt%, the corresponding composite exhibits slightly higher dielectric constant but lower dielectric loss than pure DCPDCE resin over the testing frequency from 10 to 60 MHz. In addition, the thermal stability and moisture resistance of modified GO/DCPDCE nanocomposties are also superior to that of pure DCPDCE resin.

To optimize the electrochemical behavior of NCM-based high-energy lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in wide temperature ranges, Phenyl trifluoromethane sulfonate (PTM) is demonstrated as the novel electrolyte additive to enhance the electrochemical behavior of LiNi 0·6 Co 0·2 Mn 0·2 O 2 /graphite cells at 25 °C, −20 °C and 45 °C. The cells with 1.0 wt% PTM-containing electrolyte deliver 80.6% capacity retention after 350 cycles at 25 °C, 73.4% after 100 cycles at −20 °C, and 82.6% after 300 cycles at 45 °C, which are significantly higher than that in standard electrolyte (STD), corresponding to 36.4% at 25 °C, 40.3% at −20 °C, and failure at 45 °C, respectively. According to density functional theory (DFT) simulations and quantitative calculations, the PTM preferentially reduces on the anode and oxidizes on the cathode to participate in the formation of solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) films. In addition, the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and other analysis suggest that the formed SEI films are thinner and more stable for the electrolyte containing PTM, and the formed SEI films effectively control the decomposition of carbonate-based electrolytes and greatly decrease the increased resistance during the cycle.

The discovery of light converter excited by near-ultraviolet (UV) superior broadband blue-emitting lighting source is a main challenge in plant growth LEDs. In this study, SrLu 2 O 4 :Ce 3+ , Li + , F − blue phosphor has been synthesized via a solid-state reaction. Benefitting from doping of F − ions, SrLu 2 O 4 :Ce 3+ , Li + , F − phosphor (λ ex = 405 nm, λ em = 460 nm) shows a strong broadband (FWHM = 90 nm) blue-emitting with lower critical concentration of Ce 3+ ions and an increasing 6.9% thermal quenching performance (92.1% @ 423 K of the peak intensity at room temperature). Moreover, a blue light converter composed of SrLu 2 O 4 :Ce 3+ , Li + , F − phosphor and glass matrix is obtained based on phosphor-in-glass (PiG) technology, exhibiting excellent thermal stability and outstanding moisture resistance . A red light converter with commercial red phosphor is obtained by the same method. Furthermore, by combining of two light converters with near-UV chip, a proof-of-concept plant growth high power LED is achieved and applied in indoor Italian lettuce growing in comparison with commercial plant lamps.

Few-layer black phosphorus (FL-BP) shows great potential in infrared polarization-sensitive photodetection due to its narrow bandgap and strong in-plane anisotropy. However, FL-BP is easy to be oxidized and degraded, which severely restricts its applications. Herein, a simple and scalable in situ interfacial passivation method based on pentacene film is reported to enhance the ambient stability of FL-BP as well as achieve n-type doping for improved polarization-sensitive photoimaging. High crystal quality FL-BP flakes with intrinsic anisotropy are prepared by electrochemical exfoliation. The morphology and Raman spectra of FL-BP/pentacene exhibit excellent stability 28 days after passivation. In addition, the hole mobility is significantly enhanced and dark current is substantially suppressed due to the interfacial passivation and n-type doping effect. The FL-BP/Pentacene based photodetector shows a broadband response from visible to near-infrared with good stability. The photoresponsivity under 915 nm illumination is calculated as 2.2 mA W −1 with an anisotropy ratio of 1.29. Furthermore, the polarization imaging under the irradiation at zigzag and armchair directions directly reveals the strong infrared polarization-sensitive imaging capability of FL-BP/pentacene. This work also opens up new avenues to enhance the photoresponse and stability of various optoelectronics based on similarly unstable 2D materials.

Owing to the high theoretic capacity (2596 mAh g −1 ) and suitable lithiation potential (～0.7 V vs. Li + /Li), Black phosphorus (BP) is considered as an ideal anode material for the fast-charging lithium-ion batteries. However, BP still faces the large volume change and low Li + transfer during the charge/discharge. In this work, a facile two-step high-energy ball milling method is developed to synthesis the black phosphorus@TiP 2 –C (CBP@TiP 2 –C) nanocomposite for the high-rate performance anode material, in which the conductive nanocrystalline TiP 2 is in-situ introduced and uniformly distributed into BP-C matrix. We reveal that the uniformly dispersed TiP 2 nanocrystals can enhance the electronic and ionic conductivities of active particles and the electrode reaction kinetics. The lithiation product cubic Li y TiP 4 phase is beneficial to release the stress, reduce the Li + diffusion energy barrier and accelerate the Li + extraction from LiP 3 upon delithiation . Moreover, the contact among different components can be improved by Ti–C and P–C bonds in the CBP@TiP 2 –C, thus ensuring excellent electric contact within the material and enhancing the structural stability of composites. As a result, the CBP@TiP 2 –C anode displays a high reversible capacity of 1007.4 mAh g −1 at 10.0 A g −1 and excellent capacity retention of 925.6 mAh g −1 after 500 cycles at 2 A g −1 .

A series of novel high temperature negative temperature coefficient (NTC) composite ceramics based on (1- x )CaMn 0.05 Zr 0.95 O 3 - x NiMn 2 O 4 ( x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) were fabricated by using the solid-state method. The Rietveld refinement method and backscattered electron (BSE) image confirmed the absence of any other phase. The conduction mechanism of the composite ceramics was determined by analyzing the complex impedance and resistance-temperature characteristics, which could be related to the formation of a continuous Mn 3+ -O-Mn 4+ network. The effect of spinel content on the high temperature stability was analyzed using aging tests. The ρ 400°C , ρ 700°C and B 400/700 values of the NTC thermistors were determined to be 4.9 × 10 6 –1.2 × 10 4 , 1.4 × 10 5 –0.8 × 10 3 Ω cm and 12739-5712 K, respectively. This indicated that the electrical properties could be tuned by adjusting the weight ratio of CaMn 0.05 Zr 0.95 O 3 and NiMn 2 O 4 . The findings obtained in this study reveal that the composite NTC thermistor exhibits a good application potential at high temperatures and under harsh environments.

As a kind of anode materials, iron matrix oxide cannot be widely used in the lithium-ion batteries due to their poor electrical conductivity and huge volume change during the electrochemical cycles. Herein, the porous carbon@Fe 2 O 3 composites are prepared by hydrothermal method. Due to the porous structure and introduction of carbon, the electrical conductivity can be greatly improved. Additionally, the porous structure could buffer the volume change during electrochemical cycles. As a result, the as-prepared carbon@Fe 2 O 3 composites deliver a high initial specific capacity of 1168 mAh/g at 0.1 C. Moreover, the carbon@Fe 2 O 3 composites show outstanding rate performance and superior cycling stability. This work provides a potential anode material for high electrochemical performance Li-ion batteries.

Nitrogen-doped mesoporous carbon (NMC) was synthesized via pyrolysis of cobalt-containing casein obtained by extraction from pure milk with the auxiliary of cobalt ions. The cobalt element in casein promoted specific surface area and N element doping amount of casein-derived porous carbon. The N-doped porous carbon obtained by carbonization at 800 °C (NPC-800) possessed a specific surface area of ∼886.7 m 2 g −1 , and the mesoporous size was centered at 2.7 and 7 nm. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis showed that the nitrogen content of NPC-800 was 3.29 at%.
