Summary: This study investigates the origin of differences in open-circuit voltage (V-OC) for polymer:fullerene solar cells utilizing highly crystalline conjugated polymers (PTzBT) with the same thiophene-thiazolothiazole backbone but different side chains. The findings suggest that the difference in V-OC is attributed to the distinct cascaded energy structures for the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) levels in the interfacial mixed phase. Additionally, it is revealed that the stabilization of HOMO is influenced by the branching of side chains, as supported by density functional theory calculations.

Summary: Since the 1950s, microprocessors have been continuously evolving to become smaller, faster, smarter, and with larger data storage capacity by reducing the dielectric constant of the insulating layer within ICs. The evolution of interlayer dielectrics (ILDs) has shifted focus from reducing dielectric constant to overcoming integration challenges posed by porous ILDs. To address these challenges, new methods such as supplementary precursors and deposition processes have been developed.

Summary: Fullerene-based indoor OPVs, particularly PCBM, have potential in harvesting indoor light energy for low-power electronic devices. However, the performance has been limited due to the low tunability of the spherical structure. This study explores the use of fullerene derivative bis-PCBM in indoor OPVs, which has a higher LUMO level than PCBM. Although bis-PCBM devices have higher V-OC values, they suffer from lower efficiency compared to PCBM devices.

Summary: This article discusses the potential of lead-free perovskite-inspired materials (PIMs) as a sustainable choice for efficient indoor light harvesting. Wide-bandgap PIMs with a band gap of approximately 2 eV can achieve an outstanding indoor power conversion efficiency of up to 60%. However, research on PIM-based indoor photovoltaics (IPVs) is still in the early stages, with the highest indoor device efficiencies currently reaching only 10%. The article reviews recent advancements in PIMs for IPVs and identifies the poor operational stability of IPV devices as the main limiting factor for widespread adoption of this technology.

Summary: In recent decades, direct C-H arylation has become a preferred tool for biaryl coupling in organic synthesis due to its simplicity, efficiency, and reduced environmental impact compared to traditional cross-coupling methods. However, the low reactivity of aryl C-H bonds often requires harsh reaction conditions, which limits its sustainability. Therefore, developing milder conditions for direct C-H arylation reactions has become an important research goal.

Summary: Due to their versatile (opto)electronic properties, conjugated polymers have been widely used in organic electronic devices. Various cross-coupling reactions, such as Stille, Suzuki, Kumada couplings, and direct arylation reactions, have been effective for synthesizing conjugated polymers. Recent interest in donor-acceptor polymers has led to the development of cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) polymerization, which allows the synthesis of alternating copolymers without prefunctionalization of monomers. This article discusses the development of CDC polymerization protocols and provides insights from small molecule CDC reactions for a better understanding of these reactions.

Summary: A-site cations have significant impacts on the efficiency and stability of lead halide perovskite (LHP) optoelectronic devices. However, the correlation between these impacts and cation structural features has not been studied due to the difficulty of isolating the independent contributions from the sizes of these A-site cations and hydrogen-halide interaction. In this study, we designed two isoelectronic cationic ligands and investigated their differences in passivating LHP solar cell interfaces.

Summary: This mini-review discusses the progress in the development of polymerized small-molecule acceptors (PSMAs) for all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs). These PSMAs combine the advantages of small-molecule acceptors (SMAs) and polymers. Studies have shown that the improved efficiency of all-PSCs is attributed to factors such as stronger absorption, improved blend morphology, and redistribution of composition in the film. Additionally, the incorporation of new materials as third components has led to high power conversion efficiencies in ternary organic photovoltaics.

Summary: We investigate the interface properties between WSi2N4 and Mo2B, O-modified Mo2B, and OH-modified Mo2B nanosheets. We find that WSi2N4 and Mo2B form n-type Schottky contacts, while functionalizing Mo2B with O and OH leads to the formation of both n-type and p-type ohmic contacts with WSi2N4. Additionally, we demonstrate the emergence of quasi-ohmic contact with ultralow lateral Schottky barrier and zero vertical interfacial tunneling barriers in Mo2B(OH)2-contacted WSi2N4.

Summary: When rare-earth ions are embedded in a ferroelectric material, their photoluminescence can serve as an all-optical probe for temperature, electric field, and mechanical stimulus. However, the impact of ferroelectric phase transitions on photoluminescence is not well understood. In this study, we demonstrate changes in the photoluminescence of green emission bands during critical ferroelectric transitions in an Er-doped BaTiO3 material. We also find that the intensity ratio and wavelength position difference of sub-peaks provide information on the phase transitions.
