Linear‐Nonlinear‐Linear Sandwich‐Structured Polymer Composites With Metal‐Organic Framework (MOF)‐Enhanced Insulating Layers and Horizontally Oriented Nanotube‐Filled Polarization Layer for High Energy Storage Performance

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A linear‐nonlinear‐linear (LNL) sandwich dielectric film was rationally designed for high energy storage. Its outer linear layers are MOF (ZIF‐8)‐enhanced PEI composites (EZ), and the middle nonlinear layer is an electrospun‐hot‐pressed P(VDF‐HFP)/TNTs composite (PT) with horizontally oriented TNTs.

Research Progress of Three‐Terminal Perovskite/Silicon Tandem Solar Cells Based on Back‐Contact Silicon

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells offer efficiencies beyond 30%, yet conventional architectures face trade‐offs between optical performance and current matching. Three‐terminal tandems employing silicon back‐contact bottom cells eliminate the current‐matching constraint while minimizing optical losses, offering superior energy yield under real ...
