We concretely report feasible synthesis procedures of colloidal Cu 2 ZnSn(S 1- x ,Se x ) 4 -Au (CZTSSe-Au) nano-heterostructured composites, and creatively employ them as the counter electrodes (CEs) of all-solid-state solar cells with inorganic CsSnI 2.95 F 0.05 perovskite hole conductor. Acquired optical characterization indicates that integration of noble metal nanoparticles with cuprum-chalcogenide could heighten light absorption within visible-band due to localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) generated by Au, and the forbidden gap of nanocomposites gets adjustment accordingly. It is demonstrated that this novel photocathode alternative with favorable conductivity can not only match the energy level within the device band structure construction, but also restrain recombination so that accelerate charge transfer and extraction occurring on the photocathode. The photocurrent and photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of cells conjugating CZTS-Au photocathodes turn to be respectively 43% and 25% higher than those using pure CZTS. Moreover, it has been demonstrated that CZTS-Au, coupling very well with inorganic perovskite, owns comparable electrocatalytic performance and even higher output photocurrent with respect to platinum CEs, which portends a potential substitution for conventional costly photocathodes. A comprehensive analysis on impedance spectroscopy data is subsequently carried out for the sake of deep understanding charge accumulation and transfer response at CsSnI 2.95 F 0.05 /CE interface, attempting to orient further optimization of device performance.

A nano-carbon composite, consisting of a graphene aerogel-carbon nanotube (CNT) film, is constructed by coating a strong and flexible CNT film onto the surface of a porous graphene aerogel core. The prepared gradient composite, ultralight and strong, can carry objects more than 15,000 times its own weight, exhibiting impressive compression resistance. Compared to the original graphene aerogel , the composite exhibits 8–9-fold increased values in its elastic modulus and compressive strength at a strain of 20% and an approximately 10-fold increase in electrical conductivities in the axial direction . In addition, the elastic recovery ability after compressive deformation and the ability to preserve liquid are also improved.

In the past few years, silane coupling agents are often used to modify the surface of silicon materials; however, researches in preparation of SiO X -based materials pyrolyzed from silane coupling agents are seldom reported. Hence, in order to prepare amorphous SiO X @C anodes for Li-ion storage, we adopted three kinds of silane coupling agents as organic silicon sources. The results show that silane coupling agents with vinyl group is the optimum organic silicon source. Owing to the strong chemical bonds of Si–O–C, amorphous SiO X particles are uniformly embedded in carbon matrix, forming monodisperse microbeads architecture with good buffer abilities. Therefore, the V-SiO X @C anodes derived from silane coupling agents with vinyl groups show good electrochemical performance, retaining a reversible discharge capacity of 940 mAh g −1 at a current density of 100 mA g −1 after 200 cycles, and it still depicts a good long-term cycling durability, maintaining 739 mAh g −1 at a current density of 400 mA g −1 after 400 cycles.

In this work, we demonstrated tunable structured AlGaN-based nanoporous (NP) distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) with high-reflectivity through one-step vertical-lateral electrochemical etching (ECE). The aperture of nanopores in the doping layer and the size and density of V-pits on the surface of NP-DBRs can be tuned by controlling the etching bias. Furthermore, by further tuning the thickness of alternating layers, we achieved high reflectivity of NP-DBRs at multiple center wavelengths within the wavelength range from 280 to 800 nm. To explore its potential applications, MoS 2 with a photoluminescence (PL) emission in the red light region was grown for the first time on the NP-DBRs. Due to the light localized effect of surface V-pits and the high reflectivity of the bottom DBRs , the PL intensity of MoS 2 was significantly enhanced by a factor of 37.3 compared to the region without NP-DBRs. The PL enhancement of MoS 2 on porous AlGaN and different periodic NP-DBRs further validated the PL enhancement mechanism. The corresponding theoretical simulations also revealed that the PL enhancement should be attributed to the combined effect of enhanced light absorption and NP-DBRs induced emission interference. The fabricated AlGaN-based NP-DBRs provide a new approach for improving the quantum efficiency of two-dimensional layered materials, which holds significant importance for advancing the development of miniaturized and integrated 2D/3D heterogeneous structure systems in the field of optoelectronics.

Low temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) technology is extensively utilized to meet the requirements of device integration and miniaturization. Low-fired Li 3 Mg 2 NbO 6 ceramics doped with x wt% Li 2 O–MgO–B 2 O 3 –CaF 2 –SiO 2 glass (LMBCS, x = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0) were prepared by the solid-state reaction method for applications in microwave communication materials. All samples exhibited a single-phase Li 3 Mg 2 NbO 6 structure. The addition of LMBCS glass effectively reduced the sintering temperature of Li 3 Mg 2 NbO 6 ceramics from 1250 °C to 875 °C. And adding LMBCS glass improved the Q × f value of Li 3 Mg 2 NbO 6 ceramics. The Li 3 Mg 2 NbO 6 -1.0wt% LMBCS ceramics exhibited outstanding microwave dielectric properties: ε r = 16.8, Q × f = 89,495 GHz, τ f = − 27.4 ppm/°C at 875 °C, which indicates that this ceramic is potential candidate materials for LTCC.

Al 2 O 3 : Er 3+ /Yb 3+ transparent ceramics codoped with Zn 2+ ions with intense upconversion and near infrared emission were prepared by conventional solid-state reaction and vacuum and hot isostatic pressing sintering. The effects of Zn 2+ incorporation to the structure, transparent, upconversion and NIR luminescence were discussed in detail. The as prepared Al 2 O 3 ceramics exhibited a total transmittance of ~ 75% in infrared regions (800–3300 nm) and ~ 50% in visible regions (500–800 nm). Under the excitation of a 980 nm laser diode , the as prepared Al 2 O 3 ceramics displayed two tense upconversion emission peaks of a green one centered at 550 nm and a red one centered at 660 nm and a tense near infrared emission peak centered at 1.532 µm, characteristic of Er 3+ emission. Compared with Er 3+ /Yb 3+ doped only, Zn 2+ codoped Al 2 O 3 :Er 3+ /Yb 3+ transparent ceramics showed higher upconversion and near infrared emission of ~ 11 times and ~ 4 times, respectively. The enhancement mechanism due to incorporation of Zn 2+ ions was also discussed in detail.

High energy and efficient solar charging stations using electrochemical capacitors (ECs) are a promising portable power source for the future. In this work, two kinds of metal-organic framework (MOF) derivatives, NiO/Co 3 O 4 microcubes and Fe 2 O 3 microleaves, are prepared via thermal treatment and assembled into electrochemical capacitors, which deliver a relatively high specific energy density of 46 Wh kg −1 at 690 W kg −1 . In addition, a solar-charging power system consisting of the electrochemical capacitors and monocrystalline silicon plates is fabricated and a motor fan or 25 LEDs for 5 and 30 min, respectively, is powered. This work not only adds two novel materials to the growing categories of MOF-derived advanced materials, but also successfully achieves an efficient solar-ECs system for the first time based on all MOF derivatives, which has a certain reference for developing efficient solar-charge systems.

Fabrication of nanowires in polymer films can dramatically enhance the mobility of thin-film transistors (TFTs). Unlike the popular method of forming nanowires after spin-coating films, here a water-bath method to fabricate the micrometer-long nanowires in the poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) solution is introduced, which is suitable for large-area printing electronic application. The resulting transistor exhibits significantly enhanced mobility and excellent device stability. However, the threshold voltage of the device is increased, compared with the amorphous film device. The underlying mechanism of the mesoscale crystalline induced threshold voltage increase has been rarely studied. The temperature-dependent characteristics imply that the activation energy of the device with nanowires is higher than that of the amorphous one, indicating nanowires can introduce deep traps. This suggests that the charge transport is mainly limited by the deep traps at the junctions between the nanowires considering the trap density inside the nanowires is significantly low. The deep traps introduced by the junctions can increase the threshold voltage as the device needs higher voltage to fill these traps in the channel before the device is turned on. This explains why the devices with nanowires have an increased threshold voltage while their mobilities are dramatically enhanced.

Novel three-dimensional Ag nanoflowers (3DAN) were successfully synthesized through a facile Cu2+ mediated solution method using N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), which serves as both a reducing agent and a solvent at room temperature. It was found that the introduction of a trace amount of Cu2+ could greatly slow the rate of the Ag+ reaction and thus this process effectively reduced the growth speed of Ag nanoparticles allowing 3DAN to be formed. The mechanism underlying the self-assembly process and shape evolution of 3DAN were systematically investigated by varying reaction time. X-Ray powder diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) were used to characterize the structure and morphology of the obtained products. X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to assess the chemical state and surface composition of the 3DAN. UV-vis absorption spectra of the products collected from the reaction solution at various stages were taken to study their optical properties. In the measurement of surface-enhanced Raman scattering using rhodamine 6G (R6G) as the probe, the 3DAN exhibited a significant enhancement factor, indicating their potential applications in biosensing and nanodevices.

Recently, all-inorganic cesium lead halide (CsPbX 3 (X = Cl, Br, and I) perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) have been extensively investigated for photocatalytic carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) reduction reaction (CO 2 RR). However, because the pristine CsPbX 3 NCs suffer from severe radiative recombination, it is imperative to elaborately design heterostructures to separate electron-hole pairs for achieving efficient CO 2 RR. Herein, palladium (Pd) nanoparticles (NPs) are anchored on CsPbBr 3 NCs by a photo-assisted approach for the first time. The as-prepared CsPbBr 3 @Pd NCs not only build Schottky junctions at the CsPbBr 3 /Pd interfaces that promote the carrier separation and suppress the radiative recombination, but also exhibit lower energy barriers for photocatalytic CO 2 RR than pristine CsPbBr 3 NCs according to the density functional theory calculations. The electron consumption rate reaches a striking peak of 46.2 µmol g −1 h −1 by using CsPbBr 3 @Pd NCs as photocatalysts for CO 2 RR, which is 4.8-fold of the counterpart of pristine CsPbBr 3 NCs. This work not only presents a photo-assisted strategy for anchoring Pd NPs on CsPbBr 3 NCs, but also demonstrates the great potential of using CsPbBr 3 @Pd NCs for photocatalytic CO 2 RR.

Zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) using zinc metal as anode materials suffer from Zn dendrite formation and hydrogen evolution during the stripping/plating process, which will lead to performance degradation and hinder practical application. Herein, the 1,4,5,8-naphthalene diimide (NI) is proposed as a promising dendrite-free organic anode material for ZIBs . Moreover, the effect of different binders on electrochemical performance of NI electrode is investigated. Compared NI electrode with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) binder, the NI electrode with the polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) binder shows highly enhanced rate capability (122.2 mA h g – 1 at 5 A g – 1 ) and cycling performance (123.3 mA h g – 1 at 3 A g – 1 after 2200 cycles). The improvement cycling stability of NI is attributed to PTFE binder, which effectively maintains electrode structure and inhibits dissolution of organic molecules during the cycling process. In addition, the ion kinetics analyses reveal that the superior rate capability is provided by the capacitive charge storage. And the carbonyl group of NI is active center of electrochemistry, which is revealed by in-situ attenuated total reflection–Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) and ex-situ Raman. Besides, the aqueous Zn-ion full cell based on metal-free NI anode and Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) cathode exhibits excellent rate capability (113.9 mA h g – 1 at 10.0 A g – 1 ), high operation voltage of ~ 1.2 V (at 1.0 A g – 1 ) and energy density of 50.2 Wh kg total – 1 . This work may provide a new design inspiration to develop organic dendrite-free zinc anodes for high-performance aqueous ZIBs batteries.

Defects is of special importance in tuning the structure and physical properties of layered materials. Here the influence of transition metal Co vacancies on the structure and magnetism in collapsed tetragonal CaCo 2- x As 2 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.3) solid solutions are systematically investigated. The electrical properties show metallicity in all compounds. The crystal structure refinement exhibits that the lattice constant of the c axis and c / a ratio decreases as Co vacancies increase, revealing the formation of a more collapsed tetragonal structure in CaCo 2- x As 2 . Moreover, these introduced Co vacancies suppress the antiferromagnetic Néel temperature from 80 K down to 18 K until it disappears above 10 K in CaCo 1 · 7 As 2 . X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveals increased Co 3+ /Co 2+ value in CaCo 2- x As 2 with higher Co vacancies, which may result in the charge balance and the gradually suppressed T N . This study offers insights into tuning and understanding the magneto-structural characteristics in ThCr 2 Si 2 -type layered materials through transition metal vacancies.
