Article Abstract

Conductive metal-organic frameworks (C-MOFs) are crucial electronic materials owing to their distinctive structures and intrinsic conductivities. C-MOF thin films enhance device integration, charge transfer, and the overall performance. The interface-assisted method has been proven to be effective for preparing high-quality thin films of C-MOFs. In this review, we outline various interface-assisted methods for preparing C-MOF thin films, including gas-liquid (G-L), liquid-liquid (L-L), and liquid-solid (L-S) interfaces, expound the growth mechanism of the interface-assisted method, introduce the applications of C-MOF thin films in electronic devices, and outline the development of the interface-assisted preparation of C-MOF membrane/films, pointing out potential challenges they may face.

Titanium dioxide (TiO) thin films were deposited on glass substrates under HV conditions at room temperature by the physical vapor deposition method. Produced titanium thin films were post-annealed at 573 K at different oxygen flows (0, 9 and 23 cm/s). The influence of different oxygen flows on nano-structure, crystallography, and optical parameters of TiO films was investigated by XRD, AFM, and spectrophotometer in the UV-VIS wavelength range.

High-operating-temperature (HOT) mid-wavelength and long-wavelength infrared photodetectors have emerged as critical enablers for eliminating bulky cryogenic cooling systems, offering transfromative potential in developing compact, energy-efficient infrared technologies with reduced size, weight, power, and cost. Focusing on infrared photodiodes, this review first discusses the fundamental mechanisms limiting performance at elevated operating temperatures. Subsequently, the progress in conventional epitaxial semiconductors, such as HgCdTe, InAsSb, and III-V type-II superlattice is reviewed, highlighting the evolution of device architectures designed to effectively suppress dark currents and approach background-limited performance.

Influence of the Metal Support─Catalyst Contact on the Performance of NiO-Based O Evolution Electrocatalysts.

The performance of NiO-based electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is strongly influenced by the interface between the metal support (current collector) and the catalyst layer, which modulates electronic properties and electrochemical activity. This study systematically investigates the solid-solid interface behavior of NiO thin films prepared by reactive magnetron sputtering on Pt, Au, and Ni, followed by electrochemical characterization. Stepwise NiO deposition and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveal distinct band alignment and electronic structure differences at the metal-catalyst interface.

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.

In order to develop an alternate material for energy storage devices like batteries, this research is being done to create polymer electrolytes based on cellulose as natural polymer. Natural polymers as battery components have a number of advantages, including availability, biodegradability, unleakage, stable form, superior process, electrochemical stability, and low cost. In this study, polymer electrolytes based on cellulose have been synthesized by solution casting to prepare a thin polymer films.
