Advanced Science, EarlyView.Efficient conversion and detection of short‐wave infrared (SWIR) photons are becoming increasingly important for emerging photonic and energy technologies. Here, we report an organic photothermoelectric device based on an open‐shell conjugated polymer that enables SWIR energy conversion and photon detection via the photothermoelectric effect.

Unveiling a Near‐Total Rear Passivation for High Performance of Ultra‐Thin ACIGS
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Ultra‐thin solar cells of (Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)Se2 (ACIGS) suffer from rear interface recombination, limiting their performance. To tackle it, a full coverage plasma enhanced chemically vapor‐deposited 8 nm porous SiOx passivation layer was implemented and evaluated. It is shown that a combination of the near‐complete passivation from silica and the formation

Design Rules for Quantitative Control of Intragrain Planar Defects in Halide Perovskites
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Dose‐budgeted electron microscopy reveals the design rules governing intragrain planar defects in halide perovskites: {112}t ferroelastic twins proliferate with increasing tetragonality and grain size, whereas {111}c twins and stacking faults emerge as the lattice approaches cubic symmetry.
