TL;DR: A low-temperature wafer-scale etching and thin film deposition method for fabricating silicon n-p core-shell nanowire solar cells and showed efficiencies up to nearly 0.5%, limited primarily by interfacial recombination and high series resistance.

TL;DR: Th thin films of nanosized metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are introduced as atomically defined and nanoscopic materials that function as catalysts for the efficient and selective reduction of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide in aqueous electrolytes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of continuous mesoporous silica films with large periodic cage and pore structures using low-cost commercially available poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(blockpoly(methylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) triblock copolymers and poly-(ethylene dioxide) non-ionic surfactants in conjunction with dip-coat processing was reported.

TL;DR: A catalyst-free, solution-phase synthesis of CsPbX3 nanowires (NWs) with well-defined morphology could serve as an ideal platform for the investigation of fundamental properties and the development of future applications in nanoscale optoelectronic devices based on all-inorganic perovskites.

TL;DR: Benzene hydrogenation was investigated in the presence of a surface monolayer consisting of Pt nanoparticles of different shapes (cubic and cuboctahedral) and tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide and the catalytic selectivity was found to be strongly affected by the nanoparticle shape.
