Article Abstract
The interfaces between the perovskite and charge-transporting layers typically exhibit high defect concentrations, which are the primary cause of open-circuit voltage loss. Passivating the interface between the perovskite and electron-transporting layer is particularly challenging due to the dissolution of surface treatment agents during the perovskite coating. In this study, a coherent FAPbICl buried interface was simultaneously formed during the preparation of FAPbI. This interlayer significantly improved charge extraction and transportation from the perovskite layer, while reducing trap state density. As a result, the open-circuit voltage increased from 1.01 V to 1.10 V, with the PCE improved from 19.05% to 22.89%.

Additive assisted strategies play a crucial role in optimizing the morphology and improving the performance of organic solar cells (OSCs), yet the molecular-level mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we employ molecular dynamics (AIMD) and density functional theory (DFT) to elucidate the influence of typical additives of 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO) and 3,5-dichlorobromobenzene (DCBB) on molecular packing, electronic structures, and charge transport. It can be observed that both additives can enhance the stacking properties of the donor and acceptor materials, yet they have different effects on the local electrostatic environment.

Molecular piezoelectrics have garnered significant attention in energy harvesting and sensing fields due to their high intrinsic piezoelectricity, low elastic properties, and excellent solution processability. Recent efforts have primarily focused on rationally tuning the piezoelectric performance of these materials through the molecular predesign of organic components. However, the regulation of piezoelectric properties via the central metal ion has remained relatively underexplored.

The photovoltaic performance of CuZnSn(S,Se) is limited by open-circuit voltage losses (ΔV) in the radiative (ΔV) and non-radiative (ΔV) limits, due to sub-bandgap absorption and deep defects, respectively. Recently, several devices with power conversion efficiencies approaching 15% have been reported, prompting renewed interest in the possibility that the key performance-limiting factors have been addressed. In this work, we analyze the sources of ΔV in these devices and offer directions for future research.

Positive temperature coefficient (PTC) materials are pivotal for safeguarding lithium iron phosphate batteries, yet their industrial application is hindered by critical drawbacks: excessive film thickness, high internal resistance, and poor solvent sustainability. Addressing these challenges, this study innovatively develops a solvent-free thermal rolling process to fabricate an asymmetric expansion polymer film, specifically thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) reinforced polyethylene (PE)/carbon composites, which significantly enhances the PTC effect. The core mechanism lies in the asymmetric thermal expansion of TPU and PE: this unique behavior disrupts the conductive carbon network, triggering a sharp PTC transition at around 120 °C.

In this study, porous polysiloxane (PS)/multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) nanocomposite films were developed as high-performance triboelectric layers for flexible triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs). TENGs convert mechanical motion into electricity and offer a promising solution for self-powered electronic systems. The nanocomposites were fabricated using a doctor blading method, and porosity was introduced a simple, scalable salt-leaching technique.
