This work demonstrates a conceptual framework of three types of cooperative interaction pathways in molecularly assembled nanoparticle chemiresistors. Their relative contributions depend on nanoparticle composition, linker chemistry, film architecture, and analyte identity, modulating the effective tunneling barrier (Φ), interparticle spacing (d), and ...

Interfacial Defect Passivation by Molecular Dipole‐Moment Engineering in Perovskite Solar Cells
A bulky cation material with a dipole moment, 4‐MeO‐PEABr, is applied to improve interfacial contact and passivate the defects of perovskite films. The molecular dipole moment of the molecule affects the work function of the perovskite film, yielding an efficiency of 22.7% (SPO at 22.5%), and improved performance retention under illumination.

Phosphoric acid–modified TiO2 nanoparticles significantly enhance the performance of polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membranes by improving hydrophilicity, permeability, and antifouling resistance. The surface‐functionalized nanoparticles promote stable dispersion and favorable membrane morphology, resulting in superior separation efficiency and long ...
