Article Abstract

InGaN-based photovoltaic devices have attracted great attention due to their remarkable theoretical potential for high efficiency. In this paper, the influence of different distributions of step-gradient indium content within the intrinsic region on the photovoltaic performance of P-I-N type InGaN/GaN solar cells is numerically investigated. Through the comprehensive analysis of carrier dynamics, it is found that for the device with the indium content decreasing stepwise from 50% at the top to 10% at the bottom in intrinsic region, the photovoltaic conversion efficiency is increased to 10.29%, which can be attributed to joint influence of enhanced photon absorption, reduced recombination rate, and optimized carrier transport process.

This study presents a dual-network composite gel synthesized from polyacrylamide (PAM), polysaccharides (sodium alginate/xanthan gum), and deep eutectic solvents (DES), demonstrating enhanced performance for flexible strain sensors. The composite gel incorporated a gallium-indium alloy (EGaIn) as a conductive filler to enable high stretchability, mechanical toughness, and superior electrical properties. The gel fabrication employed a solvent substitution strategy wherein water content was systematically replaced by DES, ensuring nonvolatility and structural stability.

In this work, iridium (Ir) loaded indium oxide (InO) nanoparticles made via a flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) technique for the first time were systematically investigated for acetone (CHO) detection at ppb levels. The structural data based on microscopic and spectroscopic analyses unveiled that 3-6 nm secondary metallic Ir nanoparticles were loaded on 8-15 nm cubic InO nanoparticles with uniform dispersion at a low Ir content of 0.5 wt % or less.

This study demonstrates that IGZO compositions with low-indium (In) content can undergo effective crystallization via a low-temperature route. The IGZO films were initially thermally annealed at 400 °C to enhance structural quality, followed by titanium (Ti) metal-induced crystallization (MIC) at 300 °C under ambient oxygen conditions. Systematically varying the zinc (Zn) content in the IGZO channel while maintaining a fixed indium-to-gallium ratio revealed the relationship between microstructural evolution and electrical performance/stability.

Sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (SPAN) has emerged as a promising cathode material for high-energy-density lithium‒sulfur (Li‒S) batteries due to its ability to confine sulfur and suppress polysulfide shuttling. However, conventional SPAN suffers from sluggish conversion kinetics and limited sulfur utilization, especially at high sulfur loadings. In this work, reconfigurable indium‒sulfur (In-S) coordination into SPAN to dynamically regulate sulfur bonding states is introduced.
