Article Abstract
Interfacial localized charges and interfacial losses from incompatible underlayers are critical factors limiting the efficiency improvement and market-integration of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Herein, a novel interfacial chemical tuning strategy is proposed involving proton transfer between the amine head of pyridoxamine (PM) and the phosphonic acid anchoring group of [4-(3,6-dimethyl-9H-carbazol-9-yl)butyl]phosphonic acid (Me-4PACz), with simultaneous enhancement of charge delocalization through electrostatic attraction between opposite charged molecules. The Me-4PACz-PM charge polarization interface modulates the nickel oxide (NiO) charge states and the coordination environment at buried interfaces, consequently enhancing p-type conductivity and obtaining a more compatible band arrangement. The high-coverage and wettability of the NiO/Me-4PACz-PM underlayer also facilitate the deposition of high-quality perovskite films, releasing lattice strain and mitigating trap-assisted non-radiative recombination. Attributing to the implementation of charge polarization tunable interfaces, small-area devices and modules with an aperture area of 69 cm achieved impressive power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 26.34% (certified 25.48%) and 21.94% (certified 20.50%), respectively, and unencapsulated devices maintained their initial PCEs ≈90% after aging for 2000 h (ISOS-L-1) and 1500 h (ISOS-D-1). The broad applicability of charge polarization tunable interfaces and the successful scaling of large-area modules provide a reference for expanding PSCs applications.

The activation of methane and other gaseous hydrocarbons at low temperature remains a substantial challenge for the chemistry community. Here, we report an anaerobic photosystem based on crystalline borocarbonitride (BCN) supported Fe-O nanoclusters, which can selectively functionalize C-H bonds of methane, ethane, and higher alkanes to value-added organic chemicals at 12 °C. Scanning transmission electron microscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy corroborated the ultrafine FeOOH and FeO species in Fe-O clusters, which enhanced the interfacial charge transfer/separation of BCN as well as the chemisorption of methane.

The introduction of two-dimensional (2D) perovskite layers on top of three-dimensional (3D) perovskite films enhances the performance and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, the electronic effect of the spacer cation and the quality of the 2D capping layer are critical factors in achieving the required results. In this study, we compared two fluorinated salts: 4-(trifluoromethyl) benzamidine hydrochloride (4TF-BA·HCl) and 4-fluorobenzamidine hydrochloride (4F-BA·HCl) to engineer the 3D/2D perovskite films.

Sonocatalytic therapy (SCT) is a non-invasive tumor treatment modality that utilizes ultrasound (US)- activated sonocatalysts to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), whose production critically dependent on the electronic structural properties of the catalytic sites. However, the spin state, which is a pivotal descriptor of electronic properties, remains underappreciated in SCT. Herein, a Ti-doped zirconium-based MOF (Ti-UiO-66, denoted as UTN) with ligand-deficient defects is constructed for SCT, revealing the important role of the electronic spin state in modulating intrinsic catalytic activity.

Achieving high capacitance while maintaining rapid charge transport and structural stability remains a major challenge in the design of battery-type supercapacitor electrodes. Herein, a molecularly engineered strategy is presented for constructing hierarchical hybrid electrodes by integrating petal-like NiCu-LDH nanosheets onto 3D HBC-x (x = H, F, OMe)-functionalized CNT paper via a one-step hydrothermal process. The incorporation of HBC effectively mitigates CNT agglomeration and constructs an interconnected conductive framework that enhances charge transport, shortens ion diffusion paths, and reduces internal resistance.

Mechanical stimuli have been shown to dynamically alter solid-liquid interfaces and induce electron transfer, enabling catalytic reactions, most notably contact-electro-catalysis (CEC). However, the underlying mechanism of charge transfer at solid-liquid interfaces under mechanical stimulation remains unclear, particularly at semiconductor-liquid interfaces. To date, rare studies have reported on the catalytic activity of semiconductor-liquid interfaces under mechanical stimulation.
