A simple methyl-terminated (-CH(3)) surface passivation approach has been employed to enhance the performance of the bilayer graphene/Si nanohole array (BLG/SiNH array) Schottky junction based self-powered near infrared photodetector (SPNIRPD). The as-fabricated SPNIRPD exhibits high sensitivity to light at near infrared region at zero bias voltage. The I(light)/I(dark) ratio measured is 1.43 × 10(7), which is more than an order of magnitude improvement compared with the sample without passivation (~6.4 × 10(5)). Its corresponding responsivity and detectivity are 0.328 AW(-1) and 6.03 × 10(13) cmHz(1/2)W(-1), respectively. The demonstrated results have confirmed the high-performance SPNIRPD compared with the photo-detectors of similar type and its great potential application in future optoelectronic devices.

Organic nucleophile-assisted natural seawater electrolysis has emerged as a promising strategy for green hydrogen production by significantly reducing energy consumption. Among Ni-based electrocatalysts, NiMoO has drawn attention for its activity in both oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and urea oxidation reaction (UOR). However, its practical application is hindered by severe surface passivation, particularly at industrial current densities (e.

Quantum dots (QDs) converted to micro light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have emerged as a promising technology for next-generation display devices. However, their commercial application has been hindered by the susceptibility of QDs to photodegradation when directly exposed to an open environment. Here, we develop functional ligand zinc bis[2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl] phosphate (Zn(BMEP)) to passivate QD surface anions through a phosphine-mediated surface reaction.

Perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells have attracted considerable attention owing to their high power conversion efficiency (PCE), which exceeds the limits of single-junction devices. This study focused on lead-free tin-based perovskites with iodine-bromine mixed anions. Bromide perovskites have a wide bandgap; therefore, they are promising light absorbers for perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells.

Structural and magnetic properties of ultra-small tetrahedron-shaped iron oxide nanoparticles were investigated using density functional theory. Tetrahedral and truncated tetrahedral models were considered in both non-functionalized form and with surfaces passivated by pseudo-hydrogen atoms. The focus on these two morphologies reflects their experimental relevance at this size scale and the feasibility of performing fully relaxed, atomistically resolved first-principles simulations.
