Obtaining a perovskite light-absorbing layer with good crystallization, low defect concentration, good stability, and well-matched energy levels is critical to obtaining high-efficiency perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Here, a hybrid PSC with a graded band gap is explored using MAPbBr3 (MA = CH3NH3) and MAPbBr0.9I2.1 quantum dots (QDs) as component cells. We have creatively designed a solar cell device with a double-QD structure [indium tin oxide (ITO)/SnO2/perovskite:MAPbBr3 QDs/MAPbBr0.9I2.1 QDs/Spiro-OMeTAD/Au]. A better crystal film of the perovskite absorption layer can be obtained because the MAPbBr3 QDs are doped in an antisolvent, which induces nucleation and growth in the polycrystalline perovskite. In addition, we expect that digestive ripening occurred in the crystallization, and the oleic acid ligands on the surface of the QDs disintegrate during the doping process and transfer to the surface of the perovskite absorption layer finally; it follows that the hydrophobicity and stability of the perovskite film are greatly enhanced. Moreover, a thin film of MAPbBr0.9I2.1 QDs is introduced between the perovskite absorption layer and the hole layer, acting as an energy-level ladder, which leads to well-matched energy levels, an increase in fill factor (FF), and an enhanced hole transport capability. In particular, the mechanism of the crystallization process involving the effect of oleic acid ligands on the interior and surface of the perovskite film is fully discussed here. The final research results from the PSCs show that both high efficiency and long-term stability are achieved successfully by this design strategy.

Organic–inorganic halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are a new class of photovoltaic devices, which have attracted increasing interests due to high efficiency, low cost, and simple fabrication process. Although a remarkable enhancement in power conversion efficiency (PCE) has been achieved in the last decade, the stability issue, including high water/heat sensitivity and UV light-induced degradation, has become one of the main obstacles for practical applications of PSCs. Herein, hydrophobic butyl acrylate with CO and CC groups is reported as a new additive to enhance the PCE and moisture/thermal stability of CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 -based PSCs, which improves the quality of the perovskite film by promoting defect passivation, constructing a suitable energy-level alignment, and increasing the charge carrier lifetime in PSCs. Such an additive is easily introduced into PSCs without the need for thermal treatment, which is typically required by other additives, causing a negative effect on the efficiency. The CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 -based PSC with butyl acrylate additive shows a superior PCE of 20.0%, 19% higher than that of the unmodified device (16.8%), as well as much improved moisture/thermal stability. Herein, a facile way is provided to enhance the PCE and stability of CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 -based PSCs simultaneously, which facilitates the commercialization of PSCs.

It is of great significance to develop micro/nanomotors with good biosafety and high efficiency for biomedical detection. In order to enhance the contact chances between the biosensors and the analytes in the complex blood sample, we report a near-infrared light (NIR)-driven fluorescent nanomotor, which can safely and efficiently capture and detect circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the whole blood environment without pretreating procedures. Firstly, the structure of the fluorescent nanomotor was characterized and its motion behavior in different environments was analyzed. Subsequently, CTCs detection conditions were optimized to explore the effect of nanoscale autonomous mixing provided by nanomotor’s motion behavior on the efficiency of CTCs capture. The results showed that the NIR-driven fluorescent nanomotor can keep moving in the complex biological medium so as to increase their contact chances with CTCs and improve the binding efficiency with the target analyte (the capture efficiency increased from 67.5% – 85% (no NIR irradiation) to 93.75–98.75% (under NIR irradiation)). Finally, due to the excellent fluorescence properties of the nanomotors, they can be applied to the visual detection of the whole blood samples obtained from clinical cancer patients. The NIR-driven nanomotor designed in this paper can detect CTCs in whole blood environment, which is a beneficial extension of the existing cell detection system of most micro/nanomotors in water phase environment.

Traditional synthesis methods of mesoporous carbon include hard templates (e.g., metal oxides , metal salts and mesoporous silica) and soft templates (e.g., surfactant and block copolymer). However, complicated and time-consuming procedures, high template costs, and harsh preparation conditions hinder the scale-up of these methods. Here, we report a simple and bottom-up strategy to synthesize mesoporous carbon by using the sodium-assisted carbonization of bromobenzene without additional templates added. Depending on the pyrolysis temperature, the obtained material with nanorod structures has a high surface area of 1902 m 2 g −1 , a large pore volume of 1.21 cm 3 g −1 and a high degree of graphitization . Meanwhile, the pore-forming mechanism of this strategy is explored and attributed to the “ in situ templating” effect of NaBr. The resultant material at 800 °C shows considerable rate performance, long lifetime and high power density. Additionally, the versatility and feasibility of the technique are validated via carbonization of six halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons by three alkali metals . Compared with lithium and potassium , sodium has better pore-forming effect and the obtained products possess a high surface area (1450–2100 m 2 g −1 ) and a large pore volume (1.1–1.6 cm 3 g −1 ). Furthermore, these mesoporous carbons show high adsorption capacity on dye macromolecules.

SnO 2 (Tin oxide) is one of the most successful electron transport layer (ETL) materials in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) because of its low sintering temperature and simple preparation process. Similarly, carbon-based hole transport material-free PSCs (C-PSCs) have been widely studied because of their excellent stability and low price. Therefore, C-PSCs having SnO 2 as ETL can be envisaged as a promising PSCs system for commercial flexible equipment. However, studies on this system are still scarce because of its low power conversion efficiency (PCE). In this paper, the electron lifetime and current (J sc ) of a PSC containing a Li-SnO 2 /Al 2 O 3 + CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 /carbon structure are greatly improved by doping lithium into SnO 2 (Li-SnO 2 ) and sandwiching an Al 2 O 3 interlayer into the Li-SnO 2 ETL and CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 . A PCE of 10.01% is obtained, which is 42.3% higher than a PSC having a SnO 2 /CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 /carbon structure. The entire preparation process is very simple and is carried out in an air atmosphere below 200 °C (20–40% humidity).

Hole transporting material (HTM)-free carbon-based perovskite solar cells (C–PSCs) have attracted widespread attention for their notable characteristics of excellent long-term stability and low cost. However, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of C–PSCs is significantly lower than that of HTM-based PSCs. This is mostly due to the unexpected electron recombination happening at the interface of perovskite/carbon. In this study, biomass-based carbon materials were obtained from discarded soybean dregs with sufficient pore size and good conductivity through programmed temperature carbonization and KOH activation processes. Composites of KOH-activated soybean dregs carbon and conductive carbon were used as the counter electrodes (CEs) of C–PSCs, the electrode interface performance was significantly improved and a PCE of 12.05% was obtained, which was 50% higher than that of pure carbon-based C–PSCs. Through long-term stability tests, it was found that the efficiency of the unpackaged cell did not decrease in after 960 h in the air.

Fullerene derivatives have been proved to be useful as additives into active layer to improve perovskite solar cells (PSCs) performance in the power conversion efficiency , stability and reproducibility. In this work, to unravel the influences of chemical compositions of fullerene derivatives on the PSCs performance, we systematically compare a series of fullerene-derivatives additives, including C 60 , PCBM and C 60 -Taurine. Two important conclusions are achieved: (i) the bare C 60 cage primarily plays a role to accelerate the electron extraction and transport; (ii) the side chains adhered to the C 60 cage could further help to improve the stability of PSCs by reducing the defect states and improving the perovskite crystalline quality . It is also noteworthy that these two goals may be hard to be simultaneously achieved because the insulation property of side chains leads to the decline of electron extraction capacity. Therefore, an intelligent design of fullerene derivatives as the additives is strongly suggested to balance the stability and PCE.

The development of switchable wettability membranes with high permeation fluxes is crucial for oily sewage treatment. A hierarchical beadlike porous PS fibrous membrane with pH-switchable wettability was precisely fabricated by nonsolvent-induced phase separation during electrospinning, followed by UV photografting copolymers of 2-(dimethylamino) ethyl acrylate (DMAEA) and 3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,8-tridecafluorooctyl acrylate (TFOA). The designed unique structure notably increases the roughness of surface and enhances superwettability. Protonation of the amine groups on the fibers triggered by an acid solution (pH < 2) induces underwater superoleophobicity, which in turn causes superoleophilicity in a neutral or basic solution. The as-prepared fibrous membrane can effectively separate the hexane/water mixture with an oil flux of 10 186.8 L m–2 h–1 and a separation efficiency of 99.2% only driven by gravity. Especially, excellent separation performances (water fluxes) were also realized for other oil/water mixtures with higher viscosity by switching the wettability from superoleophilicity to hydrophilicity. Moreover, the as-prepared fibrous membrane can also be applied to a continuous T-shaped tube device delivering a high handling capacity of 6631.5 L m–2 h–1, which provides the oily sewage treatment with a facile strategy in practical application.

Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) is widely used as a hole transport materials in perovskite solar cells, due to a variety of suitable properties. However, the existence of the insulated PSS chain leads to the low electrical conductivity, which should be improved for the further development of inverted perovskite solar cells. In this study, three alcohol solvents were proposed for post-treatment of PEDOT:PSS thin films, which utilized the electrostatic shielding effect of alcohol molecules to promote phase separation of the PEDOT chain and the PSS chain. At the same time, The insulated PSS chain was removed by dissolving in highly hydrophilic alcohols. In the end, we successfully improved the conductivity of PEDOT:PSS thin films. By ethanol solvent treatment, the short-circuit current density of the perovskite solar cell based on glass/ITO/PEDOT:PSS was increased from 15.64 to 17.45 mA/cm 2 , the power conversion efficiency (PCE) reached 11.36%, which was 25% higher than the traditional structure. For flexible devices, a preliminary PCE of 9.20% was achieved.

Fluorous affinity means remarkably specific interaction between highly organic fluorides. This work aims to explore the potential of fluoro-functionalized stationary phase for the separation of organic fluorides by means of fluorous-fluorous interaction. Here, by using the Michael addition strategy between 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecanethiol (PFDT) and polydopamine (PD), a novel fluoro-functionalized stationary phase was synthesized for open-tubular capillary electrochromatography (OT-CEC). The PFDT@PD was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectrometer (XPS). The PFDT@PD@capillary exhibited outstanding separation performance towards neutral compounds (such as alkylbenzenes and chlorobenzenes) and organic fluorides (such as fluorobenzenes and perfluoroalkyl methacrylates etc.) with high resolution and high separation efficiency by hydrophobic interaction and fluorous-fluorous interaction. In addition, the column shows good stability and reproducibility. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) of the retention time for intra-day (n = 5) and inter-day (n = 3) runs and between columns (n = 3) are less than 0.39%, 1.22% and 3.87%, respectively. This novel type of fluoro-functionalized stationary phase represents a great application potential in organic fluorides separation field.

The modification of perovskite intergranular perovskite/perovskite interface plays a critical role for power conversion efficiency (PCE) and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). In this work, polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers are utilized as the dendritic crystallization framework templating the perovskite-crystallizing process. The interactions at the perovskite intergranular interface are considerably strengthened at an ambient environment with dendritic PAMAMs crosslinking the perovskite grains. Consequently, the perovskite morphology is remarkably improved by suppressing the grain/grain-aggregate boundaries for the pinhole removal, which produces a compact, uniform and non-pinhole perovskite film. Finally, the strengthened interfacial interactions dramatically enhance the PCE value of unencapsulated PSCs about 42.6% at an ambient condition. Besides, the unencapsulated PAMAM-modified device can keep 73% of initial PCE value in 400 h while the control device decays to 5% of initial PCE value in 50 h. These results reveal that dendritic polymers might remarkably improve the PCE value and the stability of PSCs. This work provides a new molecular design guideline to effectively regulate the perovskite intergranular interfacial interactions.

This work systematically investigated the effects of prepolymerization on the property of multi-templates surface molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP), which was utilized to quickly and simultaneously separate and detect six sulfonamides (sulfadiazine, sulfathiazole , sulfamerazine , sulfamethazine , sulfamethoxazole and sulfadoxine) in real waters. The MIPs were prepared using the six sulfonamides as the templates, mesoporous silica supported onto the surface of magnetic graphene oxide as the carrier and 4-vinylbenzoic as the functional monomer , with and without prepolymerization of templates with functional monomer. The preparation and adsorption conditions were optimized. It was found that the adsorption capacities of the selected six sulfonamides on the MIP (pre) prepared with prepolymerization were apparently higher than those on the MIP (no pre) synthesized without prepolymerization. Subsequently, the MIPs were utilized as adsorbents for SPE of these sulfonamides, and coupled with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the determination of sulfonamides. The developed analytical method showed outstanding applicability for the detection of trace sulfonamides in real water samples. The spiked recoveries and relative standard deviations (RSDs) of the six sulfonamides using MIP (no pre) and MIP (pre) were 73.34–99.43% and 87.37–102.34%, 2.28–7.77% and 3.18–6.49%, respectively.
