Beyond Silicon: Toward Sustainable, NIR‐II, and Conformable Organic Photodiodes
Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.In this perspective, a strategic shift in organic photodetector (OPD) research is proposed: instead of the incremental advances in silicon's stronghold arena, the most impactful future for OPDs lies in addressing silicon's intrinsic limitations, i.e., detection in the longer wavelength range above silicon's coverage (>1100 nm, termed as near infrared ...

Stage‐Specific Roles of Deep Eutectic Solvents in Recycling of Spent Lithium‐Ion Batteries
Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) offer tunable acidity, redox, and coordination properties for selective recycling of spent lithium‐ion battery cathodes. Through co‐dissolution, single‐ and two‐metal separations, DESs enable sustainable recovery of critical metals for closed‐loop regeneration of battery‐grade materials, advancing a circular economy for ...
