Background: With the rapid advancement of the technology industry, particularly in STEM fields, female professionals have increasingly become key drivers of innovation. Despite this, existing research has seldom examined the psychological impact of informal control on their innovation performance. Therefore, this study distributed questionnaires to female technology professionals in China's STEM field to investigate the effect of informal control on their innovation performance from a psychological perspective.

Low-dimensional hybrid metal halide (LDHMH) materials have attracted considerable attention owing to their intriguing optical properties. To the best of the knowledge, this is the first study to successfully demonstrate both self-trap exciton (STE) and afterglow emissions in Zr-based LDHMH materials. The obtained pure (Ph S) ZrCl crystals showed near-ultraviolet phosphorescence and a green afterglow owing to the organic cation Ph S , while the Bi-doped and Sb-doped crystals exhibited both STE and afterglow emissions.

Herein, Sb-doped CsZrCl crystals are synthesized by a coprecipitation method in which Sb ions partially replace Zr ions. The CsZrCl:Sb powder shows blue and orange-red emissions under a 254 and 365 nm light, respectively, due to the [ZrCl] octahedron and [SbCl] octahedron.

LSCs have shown huge promise for realizing building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV). Unfortunately, to date, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of LSCs is still very low which dramatically hampers their practical applications.

But instability and low quantum efficiency significantly limit their prospects for future applications. Here, a general route is reported to synthesize highly stable lead-free perovskites on a large scale with remarkably enhanced quantum efficiency.

The dual emissions originate from the associated self-trapped excitons of the [SbCl] and [BiCl] octahedra. Moreover, the ratio of the dual-emission peaks can be effectively regulated by tuning the excitation wavelength.

In this work, ionic liquid is used to assist in fast synthesizing CDs with an ultrahigh photoluminescent quantum yield (98.5%) by heating at a low temperature (≤100 °C) and at atmospheric pressure.
