Foreword: Focus on Superconductivity in Semiconductors
Since the discovery of superconductivity in diamond, much attention has been given to the issue of superconductivity in semiconductors. Because diamond has a large band gap of 5.5 eV, it is called a wide-gap semiconductor.

Superimposed Sacrificial Texturing to Enhance the Optical Performance in Thin‐Film Solar Cells
Sacrificial texturing method using controlled etching of undoped zinc oxide and indium‐doped tin oxide generates microscale and nanoscale textures on glass. Roughness on two different scales is superimposed to create a new texture capable of broad‐spectrum scattering, which is utilised in thin‐film silicon solar cells to enhance optical performance ...

This study investigates the impact of various p‐block element impurities in the electrochemical reductive amination and reveals with Bi a less toxic alternative for Pb. The utilization of Bi as additive was further optimized by studying the impact of additive concentration, reaction temperature, and cathode material on amine yield, offering new ...

Enhanced CO Selectivity in CO2 Electroreduction on Pyrazole‐Modified Boron‐Doped Diamond Electrodes
Electrochemical CO2 reduction is demonstrated using molecularly modified boron‐doped diamond electrodes. Pyrazole modification doubles the CO selectivity compared to the previous aniline‐modified surface. This enhancement arises from the synergistic effect of the adjacent nitrogen atoms in pyrazole, which provides both high nucleophilicity for CO2 ...
