A novel Ir-WO3 with cation vacancy chains is fabricated and utilized as a highly efficient catalyst for nitrogen oxidation under an innovative discontinuous light illumination strategy with a record NO3 − yield of 381.21 µmol g−1 h−1. Then, a novel •OH assisted nitrogen activation mechanism is proposed based on the identification of crucial N2O intermediate...

Aromatic D-A configured phthalocyanine achieves dual-site passivation of uncoordinated lead ions while effectively passivating shallow and deep-level defects on perovskite surfaces. Pc-BTBC demonstrate compatibility with various perovskite compositions, optimize PSCs achieved a PCE of 25.15% and reduce the VOC deficit to 0.379 V, and the fabricated...

Dry processed (DP) electrode technology is a promising alternative to wet slurry casting. However, it still can't meet application requirements in terms of rate capability and mechanical properties. Here, an approach of incorporating 1 wt.% flour into DP electrodes through a binder fibrillation strategy is introduced, enabling robust mechanical properties,...

Post-synthesis processing affects the microstructure and crystallinity of the solid electrolyte Li5.5PS4.5Cl1.5. While a reduction in particle size after short ball milling times improves the tortuosity in cathode composites, longer ball milling times decrease the coherence and the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte. The specific energy input...

Introducing the first-ever perovskite solar cells (PSCs) on polycarbonate (PC) films via novel planarization, reducing surface roughness and boosting chemical and moisture resistance. Flexible devices deliver 13.0% efficiency, with satisfactory flexibility and stability in air. This innovation can enable future solar power integration in ID cards,...

With the adjustable structure, extremely active sites and substantial surface functional groups of carbon dots (CDs) as the entry point, the correlation between the structure of CDs-based materials and the energy storage improvement of zinc-based batteries is systematically summarized from the mechanism. Abstract Zinc-based batteries are...
