HSPE1 deficiency underlies the crosstalk between metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease and age‐related macular degeneration

VIEW, EarlyView.
Rare‐earth ions act as multifunctional modifiers in perovskite solar cells by improving charge transport, suppressing oxygen vacancies, passivating defects, promoting grain growth, and enabling redox‐mediated stabilization. In addition, RE‐doped layers can expand spectral utilization through upconversion and downconversion, thereby enhancing light ...
