Article Synopsis
  • The researchers synthesized nanocrystal heterostructures combining CsPbCl and PbS domains with a shared interface, utilizing Mn ions to suppress the unwanted PbSCl growth.
  • They achieved full suppression of the PbSCl by using a specific sulfur source and adjusting the reaction temperature, leading to a type-I band alignment where only PbS emitted light.
  • The team also explored the potential for creating second-generation heterostructures through selective ion exchanges, showcasing successful exchanges of Cl for Br and Pb for Cu, resulting in new epitaxial heterostructures.

Article Synopsis
  • Current syntheses of CsPbBr halide perovskite nanocrystals often use too much lead, leading to leftover lead ions.
  • The study explored replacing excess lead with various metal cations, resulting in two types of products: one type with high-quality monodisperse cubes and another with irregular shapes.
  • Adding a specific ammonium cation during the synthesis reshaped the nanocrystals to more uniform forms while maintaining high photoluminescence yields, although this reshaping is temporary.

Purpose: Off-label medicines use is a common and sometimes necessary practice in many populations, with important clinical, ethical and financial consequences, including potential unintended harm or lack of effectiveness. No internationally recognized guidelines exist to aid decision-makers in applying research evidence to inform off-label medicines use. We aimed to critically evaluate current evidence informing decision-making for off-label use and to develop consensus recommendations to improve future practice and research.
