Polyethylene-Glycol-Modified Halide Perovskite for Enhancing the Switching Ratio and Cycling Stability of Resistive Random Access Memory.

As a result of the apparent hysteresis caused by ion migration, halide perovskites (HPs) are used as the active layer of resistive devices. Here, polyethylene glycol (PEG) is used to form an organic network in the CsBiBr precursor solution to influence the nucleation growth rate of the substrate and, thus, control the perovskite surface morphology, crystallization process, and halide ion migration activation energy. Furthermore, the organic network consisting of non-conducting polymer PEG rests on the boundaries between perovskite crystals to cross-link perovskite particles.

Evidence for quasar fast outflows being accelerated at the scale of tens of parsecs.

Quasar outflows may play a crucial role in regulating the host galaxy, although the spatial scale of quasar outflows remain a major enigma, with their acceleration mechanism poorly understood. The kinematic information of outflow is the key to understanding its origin and acceleration mechanism. Here, we report the galactocentric distances of different outflow components for both a sample and an individual quasar.
