Journal ArticleDOI

Defect passivation in hybrid perovskite solar cells using quaternary ammonium halide anions and cations

TL;DR: Zheng et al. as discussed by the authors showed that quaternary ammonium halides can effectively passivate ionic defects in several different types of hybrid perovskite with their negative-and positive-charged components.
Journal ArticleDOI

A universal principle for a rational design of single-atom electrocatalysts

TL;DR: In this article, a universal design principle was proposed to evaluate the catalytic activity of single-atom catalysts for electrochemical reactions, which is a key to future renewable energy technology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formation of ordered ice nanotubes inside carbon nanotubes.

TL;DR: Simulations of the behaviour of water encapsulated in carbon nanotubes suggest the existence of a variety of new ice phases not seen in bulk ice, and of a solid–liquid critical point beyond which the distinction between solid and liquid phases disappears.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bilayer Phosphorene: Effect of Stacking Order on Bandgap and Its Potential Applications in Thin-Film Solar Cells

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the electronic properties of bilayer phosphorene with different stacking orders and found that the direct bandgap of the bilayers can vary from 0.78 to 1.04 eV.
Journal ArticleDOI

A droplet-based electricity generator with high instantaneous power density

TL;DR: It is shown that spreading of an impinged water droplet on the device bridges the originally disconnected components into a closed-loop electrical system, transforming the conventional interfacial effect into a bulk effect, and so enhancing the instantaneous power density by several orders of magnitude over equivalent devices that are limited by interfacial effects.
