Perovskite Light‐Emitting Diodes with Quantum Wires and Nanorods
This review focuses on low‐dimensional perovskite materials and discusses their applications in light‐emitting diodes (LEDs). Special attention is given to the introduction of perovskite quantum wires and nanorods, two unique types of one‐dimensional (1D) materials, and their interesting optoelectronic properties.

Printable, castable, nanocrystalline cellulose-epoxy composites exhibiting hierarchical nacre-like toughening [PDF]
Due to their exceptional mechanical and chemical properties and their natural abundance, cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are promising building blocks of sustainable polymer composites. However, the rapid gelation of CNC dispersions has generally limited CNC-based composites to low CNC fractions, in which polymer remains the dominant phase.
