Volatile eutectics to tailor crystallization for perovskite optoelectronics

Improvements to the radiative efficiency of halide perovskite thin films are necessary to approach fundamental solar cell performance limits. We tailored perovskite crystallization by leveraging the eutectic interaction between zinc bromide and methylammonium chloride additives....

Illuminating the Lifecycle of Functional Materials Through Multimodal Synchrotron X-Ray Characterization: From Synthesis to Operation and Degradation

Driven by the global demand toward sustainable energy systems, the green transformation of energy materials has become a central focus in modern material science across the global economy [1–5]. Th...
