Surface‐Anchored Microgel‐Based Films as Anti‐Icing Coatings

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The microgel‐based anti‐icing coatings presented in this work reduce ice adhesion by up to 90% on various substrates. This effect can be attributed to the incorporated functional cationic moieties binding a lubricating layer of quasi‐liquid interfacial water.

Low‐Temperature Gold Deposition Improves CdTe Back Contacts

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Cd(Se,Te) samples are cooled during the evaporation of Au back contacts to thermally quench CdTe degradation. Reduced temperature during Au evaporation boosts PV efficiency, open‐circuit voltage, and fill factor. XPS associates these improvements with less chemical perturbation of the CdTe surface during metallization.
