In‐situ growth of ultrathin sulfur microcrystal on MXene‐based 3D matrice for flexible lithium–sulfur batteries

EcoMat, 2022
Lithium–sulfur batteries (Li‐S batteries) are promising next‐generation energy storage systems because of their high‐theoretical energy density. However, the commercialization of Li‐S batteries is still impeded by the aggregation of sulfur, low‐sulfur ...

Strong Lead‐Free Bioinspired Piezoceramics for Durable Energy Transducers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We fabricated brick‐and‐mortar lead‐free piezoceramics with Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 monocrystal platelets as bricks and amorphous silica as mortar. The alignment of the bricks and the presence of the amorphous silica led to anisotropic residual stresses. These residual stresses increase the samples toughness, strength and durability while the brick alignment ...

MyD88 TIR domain higher-order assembly interactions revealed by microcrystal electron diffraction and serial femtosecond crystallography

Nature Communications, 2021
MAL and MyD88 are downstream adaptors of Toll-like receptors (TLR) and the MAL TIR domain forms filaments in vitro, which in turn nucleate the assembly of crystalline arrays of the MyD88 TIR domain.

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

One‐Dimensional Materials Supported in Two‐Dimensional Van der Waals Metal–Organic Frameworks with Optical Anisotropy Switching via Twist‐Engineering

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We introduce a molecular strategy to assemble one‐dimensional (1D) materials into two‐dimensional (2D) van der Waals metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). Crystals of [FeX(pzX)(bpy)] (X = Cl, F) form anisotropic 2D layers that can be mechanically exfoliated into thin sheets.

Mitigating Stress‐Induced Nonphotoactive Phase Transition Through Sodium Sulfonate Engineering for Stable and Efficient Perovskite Solar Cells

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
To address the phase stability issue of α‐FAPbI3, we employed a cation doping strategy using 1‐decanesulfonate (C10H21NaO3S). This doping releases lattice strain and suppresses the formation of the δ‐phase, enabling breakthrough performance in perovskite solar cells with a power conversion efficiency of 26.67% and excellent thermal and photostability ...

Deterministic Nucleation of Nanocrystal Superlattices on 2D Perovskites for Light‐Funneling Heterostructures

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work investigates the heterogeneous nucleation of CsPbBr3${\rm CsPbBr}_3$ nanocrystal superlattices along the faces of 2D PEA2PbBr4${\rm PEA}_2{\rm PbBr}_4$ layered perovskite microcrystals. Core–crown and core–shell heterostructure morphologies are obtained.

Record Dissymmetry in Vibrational Optical Activity: Combining Vibronic Coupling and Aggregation in Cobalt(II) Camphorate Complexes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The cobalt(II) bis(trifluoroacetylcamphorate) scaffold exhibits versatile coordination chemistry with solvent‐driven ligand exchange and geometrical rearrangements, associated with unique chiroptical properties. Microcrystalline suspension of [Co(tfc)2(CH3CN)2] revealed the largest VCD dissymmetry factor ever reported (g ≈ 0.2 at 1600 cm−1), arising ...
