Modified by Sm0.2Ce0.8O2−δ (SDC) nanoparticles (NPs), SmBaCo2O5+δ (SBCO) double perovskite oxide is evaluated as a promising cathode material for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells. The SDC NPs are epitaxially grown on the surface of SBCO with (220) planes of SDC aligning smoothly to (020) or (100) planes of SBCO, forming a tight, coherent connection at the interface. The influence of this modification on thermal expansion, oxygen diffusion, electrical conductivity and electrochemical properties is investigated thoroughly in this work. The designed SBCO–SDC cathode material demonstrates a lower thermal expansion coefficient (TEC), ∼16.4 × 10−6 K−1, than that of the unmodified SBCO, ∼20.9 × 10−6 K−1. While SDC coating results in a decreased total electrical conductivity, it facilitates oxygen bulk diffusion and improves the surface exchange reaction kinetics. Coating with SDC NPs can accelerate the rate-determining process of dissociation of the absorbed molecular oxygen, especially at intermediate temperatures. Accordingly, the constructed symmetrical cell with the La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.2O3−δ (LSGM) electrolyte shows lower polarization resistance values, if the SBCO–SDC cathode is utilized. Also, the LSGM electrolyte-supported (300 μm) full cell is found to deliver a high power density of 800 mW cm−2 at 800 °C. Owing to the strong and coherent interfacial connection, the developed cathode demonstrates a relatively steady electrochemical performance.

Perovskite has shown attractive optoelectronic performances and is a potential material in lighting, anti-counterfeiting, sensor, and other optoelectronic devices. Recently, spin-coating has been widely used in fabricating high-performance perovskite films, but it is difficult to process and apply in practice. In this paper, the CsPbBr 3 /Cs 4 PbBr 6 composite perovskite quantum dots with photoluminescence quantum yield of 36% and high storage stability were prepared by using room temperature ligand-assisted precipitation method and controlling the proportion of CsBr/PbBr 2 . In addition, the composite perovskite was ground and dispersed in the inks system. After adjusting the composition and ratio of the resin components, the inks were suitable for screen printing with a viscosity of 2439 mPa•s, an initial dryness of 25 mm/30 s, and a thorough dryness of 100 s/100 μm. By printing, the perovskite films exhibited high coverage, strong green emission, and outstanding fluorescence recovery ability after exposure to water. Screen printing perovskite inks have the characteristic of being patternable, which provides a solution for preparing a perovskite film in the application.

The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of tin-based perovskite solar cells (TPSCs) was significantly improved when polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) was doped into the formamidinium tin iodide (FASnI 3 ) layer with an optimized doping mass. After doping, the FASnI 3 grain size, film smoothness and average carrier lifetime were largely enhanced, which demonstrate the crystallization quality improvement to FASnI 3 . The champion PCE of the enhanced TPSC was improved to 7.83%, which is relatively 27% larger than that of the control, 6.15%. After continuous storage for 15 days, the PCE of the enhanced TPSC remained 74.4% of its original value. Using the finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulation method, we demonstrated that the light absorption ratio of the FASnI 3 :PVP layer was larger than that of the FASnI 3 , and the photo-generated carrier density of the enhanced TPSC was approximately 2% ∼ 3% larger than that of the control. The ultimate efficiency of the enhanced TPSC was calculated to be 26.23%. It is potential to dope PVP into FASnI 3 to further enhance the device performance of TPSCs.

Hybrid direct carbon fuel cells (HDCFCs) present its inherent and unparalleled advantages in converting chemical energy from organic waste, biomass, and coal directly into clean energy with high efficiency. However, the progress of HDCFC technology continues to be hampered by the sluggish anode reaction kinetics. Herein, an effective design strategy for HDCFC anode is proposed, a Cu-modified Sr 2 Fe 1.3 Cu 0.2 Mo 0.5 O 6-δ (SFCM) perovskite oxide is developed to meet the requirements of intermediate-temperature HDCFC anode. The Cu-doping SFCM anode demonstrates excellent redox structural stability and catalytic activity. In addition, the electrolyte-supported single cell with Cu-doping SFCM anode has improved the peak power density from 285.5 mW cm −2 to 489.3 mW cm −2 at 800 °C with activated carbon as the fuel. The significantly enhanced anode catalytic activity is primarily due to the improved interfacial activity and chemical adsorption of CO. Therefore, the present work shows an effective strategy for designing and developing novel high-performance HDCFCs anode materials .

Organic–inorganic lead halide peroxides (OIHPs) have attracted much interest due to their excellent photovoltaic properties, but practical applications are limited by long-term stability and further performance enhancement. Two-dimensional/three-dimensional (2D/3D) heterojunction is a promising strategy to address these issues. Here, short-chain 3,5-dichlorobenzylamine (DBA) with halogen functional groups is introduced to react with excess PbI 2 to form the 2D perovskite layer in mixed perovskite films of Cs 0.05 (FA 0.85 MA 0.15 ) 0.95 Pb(I 0.85 Br 0.15 ) 3 , which passivates surface defects, favours energy band alignment of functional layers and suppresses non-radiative recombination of carriers. As a result, DBA-treated 2D/3D PSCs obtained a champion PCE of 21.54% with an improved open circuit voltage ( V oc ) of 1.171 V. More importantly, the 2D/3D heterojunction can effectively protect the underlying 3D perovskite from moisture ingress. The unencapsulated 2D/3D devices retain 90% of their initial efficiency even after aging at 40 ± 5% RH for 1000 h, while the 3D device retains only 40%.

The electron/hole transport layer plays a very important role in the planar structure of perovskite solar cells. Conjugated polymers have received considerable attention for use in perovskite solar cells as hole/electron transport layers and passivation layers. Although the devices based on conjugated polymer hole transport layers have achieved much progress, their performance is still inferior to that of devices based on the conventional spiro-OMeTAD hole transport layer. Here, we investigated the solvent vapor annealing (SVA) effect on conjugated polymers as well as the corresponding perovskite solar cell devices. It was found that SVA treatment could enhance the hole charge carrier mobility and thin film crystallinity. Meanwhile, the charge transfer efficiency was enhanced, and charge recombination was reduced. Hence, the conjugated polymer based device exhibited comparable or even better performance compared with the conventional spiro-OMeTAD based device. Moreover, the device stability was also improved.

Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting to hydrogen is a clean process that can achieve green hydrogen. However, the integrated PEC devices have some problems, such as serious incident light loss, poor stability, and high cost. Here, the low-cost perovskite/silicon tandem cell instead of the costly III−V tandem cell as the light absorber is used, combined with high-transmittance quartz glass as a protective layer forming an unassisted solar water-splitting device. Quartz glass can minimize incident light loss and prevent electrolyte corrosion of solar cells. A solar-to-hydrogen efficiency of 19.68% is achieved, and the performance can be maintained for 20 h without noticeable change. This structure design provides a novel integrated solar water-splitting system.

A strategy of in-stack dry reforming of methane (DRM) is proposed by using La 0.6 Sr 0.2 Cr 0.85 Ni 0.15 O 3-δ -loaded Ni foam (LSCrN@NF) as a CH 4 –CO 2 reformer, fuel gas distributor, and anode current collector in a SOFC stack. The prepared LSCrN exists as a single phase in a perovskite structure ; its reduced form contains exsolved Ni nanoparticles embedded on the surface of the LSCrN substrate. Introduced into an NF, the reduced LSCrN@NF demonstrates high DRM activity that increases with the increase of LSCrN amount to an optimum of about 42%. With the LSCrN@NF in-stack DRM, the conversions of CH 4 and CO 2 into CO and H 2 increase. Thus, the electrode polarization resistance, including the cathode and anode , decreases to 0.62, 1.07, and 3.93 Ω cm 2 at 800 °C, 750 °C, and 700 °C, respectively. Consequently, the peak power density (PPD) of the cell using 45% CH 4 -45% CO 2 –10% N 2 as fuel is 1.17, 0.94, and 0.47 W cm −2 , significantly higher than that of the cell without LSCrN@NF in-stack DRM. In addition, the voltage of the cell with LSCrN@NF in-stack DRM is stable on a level between 0.81 and 0.82 V at 400 mA cm −2 and 750 °C for 270 h without detected carbon deposition in the Ni–Y 2 O 3 stabilized ZrO 2 anode. This LSCrN@NF in-stack DRM strategy is also adopted with a large-scale (13 × 13 cm 2 ) single cell, which shows an extrapolated PPD of 428.3 mW cm −2 at 750 °C and is operated for 40 h at 400 mA cm −2 without noticeable performance degradation .

Designing lead-free inorganic perovskite or perovskite-like structure materials and researching the corresponding photoinduced charge carrier dynamics are always promising due to both the environment and power conversion efficiency considerations. In this work, we intelligently employ a bilayer metal Bi/Cu thin film with different atomic ratios as the precursor to fabricate a CuBiI4 perovskite-like film in situ with a controlled Bi gradient at room temperature. This structure can significantly affect the photoinduced charge carrier dynamics of the resulting products. Next, a series of transient surface photovoltage (TSPV) measurements are carried out to investigate the photoinduced charge carrier dynamics of such CuBiI4 and CuBiI4:organic hybrid thin films. The results reveal that the gradually decreasing Bi content from ITO to CuBiI4 can facilitate the photoinduced charge carrier transportation. Finally, a champion PCE of 1.10% is obtained for an ITO/CuBiI4:polythieno[3,4-b]-thiophene-co-benzodithiophene (PTB7)/Au solar cell device. In particular, we find an exact negative correlation of the defined parameter L (the defined value for evaluating the photoinduced charge carrier dynamics in TSPV measurements) with the corresponding PCE of various devices for the first time, which may pave a new way for evaluating the potential photoelectric and photovoltaic performances of new materials without the assembly of solar cell devices.

The development of symmetrical solid oxide fuel cells (SSOFCs) faces a significant challenge in designing electrode materials that exhibit both high activity and stability. In this work, a novel layered perovskite oxide symmetric electrode material PrBaFe 1.8 Hf 0.2 O 5+δ (PBFH) for SSOFCs is proposed and synthesized. Doping Hf at the B-site of PrBaFe 2 O 5+δ (PBF) improves the stability in reducing atmosphere and increases the concentration of oxygen vacancies . Furthermore, a small amount of RuO x is deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) onto PrBaFe 1.8 Hf 0.2 O 5+δ scaffold as symmetric electrodes. The surface modification of ALD-RuO x significantly boosts the catalytic activity for both fuel oxidation and oxygen reduction, simultaneously. Compared to PBF electrodes, the interfacial polarization resistances of RuO x -PBFH decrease to 0.77 Ω cm 2 under H 2 /Ar and 0.021 Ω cm 2 under air atmosphere at 800 °C, respectively. At 800 °C, SSOFCs equipped with RuO x -PBFH symmetric electrodes exhibit a high peak power density of 0.85 W cm −2 and 0.41 W cm −2 using humidified hydrogen and propane as fuels, respectively. Moreover, the RuO x -PBFH electrode demonstrates long-lasting performance, displaying high resistance against coking. These findings reveal a facile ALD approach for tailoring symmetric perovskite electrodes, offering robust and efficient electrocatalysis with efficient noble metal utilization.
