Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed how ions move in p-type perovskite MAPbI films when an electric field is applied, highlighting the negative impact on device performance.
  • It found that ion migration could seriously hinder the efficiency of MAPbI-based devices.
  • To address this issue, the researchers suggested using additives to reduce ion migration, which could help create better-performing MAPbI-based devices.

As one of the most influential environmental factors, drought stress greatly impacts the development and production of plants. Triploid-induced Sims 'Mantianxing' is an important new cultivar for multi-resistance variety selective breeding, which is one of the breeding essential targets. However, the performance of triploid 'Mantianxing' under drought stress is unknown.

Article Synopsis
  • Organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) are gaining popularity for detecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) due to their ability to provide versatile, multiparameter measurements and signal amplification.
  • However, false readings can undermine their effectiveness and lead to output errors during gas-sensing.
  • This study clarifies how VOC adsorption affects OFET performance, highlighting the source-drain current as the key parameter for high responsivity and establishing guidelines for improved measurements in gas-sensing applications.

Article Synopsis
  • A source-drain electrode using a MoO interfacial modification layer (IML) can improve organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) but risks device instability due to MoO diffusion into organic materials.
  • To mitigate this issue, a multilayered interface contact (MIC) design is proposed that includes an organic buffer layer (OBL) to prevent MoO diffusion while maintaining low contact resistance.
  • The study analyzes the effects of various organic compounds as buffer layers and establishes key parameters, like the Fick coefficient, to guide future material selection for more stable OTFTs.

Bias-stress instability has been a challenging problem and a roadblock for developing stable p-type organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). This device instability is hypothesized because of electron-correlated charge carrier trapping, neutralization, and recombination at semiconductor/dielectric interfaces and in semiconductor channels. Here, in this paper, a strategy is demonstrated to improve the bias-stress stability by constructing a multilayered drain electrode with energy-level modification layers (ELMLs).
