Summary: The structure of iodoplumbate complexes in precursor solutions is strongly correlated with the morphology of perovskite films. The appropriate amount of DMSO in the precursor solution modifies the Pb-O and Pb-I coordination of iodoplumbate complexes, potentially changing the growth process of high-crystallization perovskite films. This study sheds light on the formation mechanism of perovskite films from precursor solutions, leading to the development of high-quality films and high-efficiency devices.

Summary: Establishing and clarifying the relationship between stereochemically active lone pairs and birefringence is crucial for exploring birefringent crystals. Four tin(II)-based ternary halides, A(3)SnCl(5) and ASn(2)Cl(5) (A=NH4 and Rb), have been successfully synthesized. Rb3SnCl5 and RbSn2Cl5 exhibit birefringence values of equal to or greater than 0.046 and 0.123@546 nm, respectively. The structure-performance relationship between stereochemically active lone pairs and optical anisotropy has been concluded through the investigation of alkali or alkaline-earth metal tin(II)-based ternary halides. This study is beneficial for the analysis and prediction of birefringence in tin-based halides and serves as a guide for exploring tin(II)-based optoelectronic functional materials.

Summary: Rare earth elements are widely used in luminescent materials to modulate their physical and chemical properties. However, the limited availability of stable phosphors crystallized with pure rare earth elements restricts their wider utilization. In this study, two examples of cerium-based organic-inorganic hybrid halides were demonstrated to have the ability to emit ultraviolet light with the shortest emission wavelength reported in metal halide perovskites. These crystals showed high quality and abnormal anti-thermal quenching behavior, making them suitable for practical use in heated environments. A phosphor-converted light-emitting diode fabricated with one of these hybrid halides exhibited stable UV emission and high external quantum efficiency. This study opens up possibilities for designing robust UV-emitting structures based on rare earth hybrid metal halides.

Summary: Strain engineering has become a critical strategy for improving the optoelectronic properties of perovskite halide materials. This study proposes an in situ-strain-engineering method to induce compressive or tensile strain in flexible inorganic-halide CsPbBr3 thin films. The results show that the optimized compressively 0.75%-strained CsPbBr3 thin films achieve the best piezoelectric energy harvesting values, which are nearly 3.8 and 7.1 times better than the unstrained reference.

Summary: The report presents a new zero-dimensional Mn-based hybrid metal halide of C4H14N2MnBr4 single crystals with bright orange emission due to the incorporation of bi-amine group organic ions. It exhibits unique dual-emission bands related to polaronic exciton or selftrapped exciton (STE1) and bipolaronic exciton (STE2) attributed to enhanced charged electron-phonon coupling, combined with d-d transition. The temperature-dependent photoluminescence spectra demonstrate reversible thermo-induced PL characteristics and different phase transitions in the crystals.

Summary: In this study, a new hierarchical assembly strategy is proposed for the rational and precise construction of complex single-crystal superstructures. Unprecedented superclusters in Rubik's cube form are formed by aggregating oxohalide clusters as secondary building units. These Rubik's cubes then act as isolable tertiary building units to assemble diverse single-crystal superstructures. The captured intermediate assembly states provide a profound understanding of the assembly process at the atomic level.

Summary: Recently, researchers have discovered the potential of bournonite (CuPbSbS3) as a ferroelectric photovoltaic (PV) material with a band gap of 1.3 eV. Studies have shown successful thin-film processing of bournonite, achieving a power conversion efficiency of 2.65% for a bournonite-based PV device. In this study, the solid-state synthesis of selenium-alloyed bournonite, CuPbSb(S1-xSex)3, was investigated across the entire range of x (0.0 <= x <= 1.0), and phase purity was reported for 0.0 <= x <= 0.5. Characterization of the samples revealed a decrease in band gap from 1.25 eV at x = 0.0 to 1.06 eV at x = 0.5.

Summary: In this study, N-doped carbon-coated Fe1-xS (Fe1-xS@NC) sheets were synthesized and anchored on rGO to form Fe1-xS@NC-rGO composites. The coating of N-doped carbon on Fe1-xS surfaces improved the surface conductivity and electrochemical kinetics of Fe1-xS, facilitating the conversion between lithium polysulfides and Fe1-xS. Additionally, the N-doped carbon coating acted as a barrier to prevent the dissolution of polysulfides and loss of active ingredients. The double protection of the N-doped carbon layer and flexible rGO substrate minimized the structural damage caused by cyclic expansion and contraction. Fe1-xS@NC-rGO exhibited excellent rate performance, reversible capacity of 939.5 mA h g(-1) after 1690 cycles at a current density of 1.0 A g(-1), and outstanding charge-discharge performance and long-term cycling stability. This work demonstrates the synergistic enhancement of Fe1-xS performance and highlights the effectiveness of the synthetic strategy for carbon-based material-protected sulfides in developing superior LIB electrodes.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of Ag substitution on the properties of Ag-incorporated CBGTSe, including phase stability, crystal structure, film morphology, grain structure, charge carrier properties, band positions, and charge carrier kinetics and recombination. It is found that up to 20% of Cu can be substituted by Ag in CBGTSe, and increasing Ag content leads to larger grain size and reduced hole carrier densities. However, Ag substitution has negligible impact on ionization potential, electron affinity, and carrier lifetimes. Solar cells based on different Ag/(Ag + Cu) ratios show comparable power conversion efficiencies.

Summary: Electron-phonon interactions are shown to manipulate charge transfer in hybrid perovskites, using coherent phonon modes. The energy offset at the organic-inorganic interface oscillates periodically, providing a unique opportunity for the modulation of interfacial charge transfer.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of carbon-based negative electrode materials in flexible lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Due to the strong intercalation ability of Li+, the initial columbic efficiencies (ICEs) of carbon-based negative electrode materials are low. By utilizing electrostatic potential, inorganic lithium salts, and graphene oxide (GO) with opposite zeta potential in ethanol, successful prelithiation of GO-based SnTiS3 anodes is achieved. Prelithiated GO matrix with enlarged layer distance improves ion conductivity and suppresses Li consumption. As a result, prelithiated free-standing membranes as negative electrodes for LIBs demonstrate significantly improved ICEs and capacity utilization. This strategy provides new insights for high-performance flexible wearable energy storage devices with prelithiated free-standing electrodes.

Summary: Sr-90 is a dangerous artificial radionuclide that is difficult to remove from complex aqueous environments. This study focused on the efficient removal of Sr2+ ions using potassium phosphatoantimonate (1D-K2SbPO6), which showed excellent adsorption capacity and selectivity for Sr2+ ions. The mechanism of Sr2+ removal was found to be ion exchange between Sr2+ and easily exchangeable K+ ions in K2SbPO6. This work provides a potential solution for radionuclide remediation using antimonate(V)-based ion exchange materials.
