Photocatalytic Water Splitting on the Lunar Surface: Prospects for In Situ Resource Utilization

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Water has been found in craters on the moon nearby locations which are illuminated >80% of the time. Photocatalysis uses energy from sunlight to drive chemical reactions such as water splitting to produce oxygen and hydrogen. It is a scalable technology that requires lighter equipment and utilizes resources available on the moon. ABSTRACT The discovery

Radiation‐Matter Interaction in Chemical Vapor Deposition‐Grown Two‐Dimensional Tungsten Disulfide

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Gamma irradiation tunes the magnetic properties of CVD‐grown WS2 material. Moderate irradiation doses induce low‐temperature ferromagnetic‐like behavior, whereas higher doses suppress the magnetic response because of increased defect formation. These findings provide insight into defect‐mediated magnetism in 2D TMDs and could be relevant to future ...

Low‐Temperature Gold Deposition Improves CdTe Back Contacts

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Cd(Se,Te) samples are cooled during the evaporation of Au back contacts to thermally quench CdTe degradation. Reduced temperature during Au evaporation boosts PV efficiency, open‐circuit voltage, and fill factor. XPS associates these improvements with less chemical perturbation of the CdTe surface during metallization.

Enhanced Photostability and Reduced Burn‐In Losses in Organic Solar Cells via a 2PACz‐Modified PEDOT:PSS Hole Transport Layer

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A PEDOT:PSS/2PACz hole transport layer reduces burn‐in degradation and enhances the photostability of organic solar cells. The interfacial modification with 2PACz mitigates photo‐induced interfacial disorder, enabling stable power conversion efficiencies under continuous illumination for over 650 h.

Imide Substitution Drives the Supramolecular Assembly of Perylene Diimide Into Laterally Modulated Metallic/Semiconducting Molecular Patterns

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Imide substitution with bulky 2,6‐isopropylphenyl groups induces perylene diimide to self‐assemble on Ag(111) into a monolayer with two coexisting adsorption heights. Molecules closer to the substrate gain metallic character due to charge transfer from the metal, while farther ones remain decoupled and semiconducting.
