Functional polymer materials containing heavy group‐14 elements focusing on germanium and tin
The synthesis, functions, and applications of the polymers containing heavy group 14 elements focusing on germanium and tin are outlined. Owing to their large atomic radii and weak binding energies, the polymers show unique properties: chromism, luminescence, carrier mobility, and reactivity to produce radials and higher coordinated states.

Fast and Simple Series Resistance Imaging for Tandem Solar Cells Using Differential Luminescence
This article presents a method for imaging the series resistance of subcells in a multijunction device. It requires few input properties, no current or voltage calibration and only three measured images. Validated on single junction and multijunction perovskite‐based devices, this method provides a practical tool for advancing photovoltaic research and

Mechanofluorochromism (MFC) of Donor–π–Acceptor (D–π–A)‐Type Fluorescent Dyes
Mechanofluorochromism (MFC) is a photophysical phenomenon that induces changes in fluorescent colors as well as colors of organic fluorescent dyes in the solid‐state by external mechanical stimuli. In this Personal Account, we offer an insight into the mechanism for the expression of MFC and present a direction in the molecular design toward creating D–

Industrial Production of Perovskite–Silicon Tandem Solar Cells: The Characterization Challenge
Characterizing perovskite–silicon tandem solar cells industrially is challenging due to shared electrical terminals and perovskite metastability. We propose light‐emitting diode‐based external quantum efficiency and I–V measurements, model ion migration, and recommend light preconditioning for reliable cell measurements.
