Highly Fluorescent and Stable Lead Halide Perovskite Nanocrystals Protected by an In Situ Formed Lead Halide–Amino Acid Matrix

Advanced Photonics Research, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
This work presents highly fluorescent and stable MAPbBr3 and FAPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals prepared via a facile single‐step precipitation method. An in situ formed PbBr2­amino acid matrix encapsulates the nanocrystals, enabling near‐unity photoluminescence quantum yields and exceptional long‐term stability under ambient conditions.

Testing a dose‐response effect of the visuospatial game Tetris on intrusive memories

Journal of Traumatic Stress, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 997-1008, December 2025.
Abstract Tetris has been shown to reduce intrusions following exposure to experimentally induced and actual traumatic events. However, no study has systematically investigated whether multiple sessions of Tetris produce greater reductions in intrusions than a single session.
