In the title salt, [ReO(2)(C(5)H(5)N)(4)]I(3), the cation and anion are both located on centres of symmetry. The Re(V) atom adopts a trans-ReO(2)N(4) octa-hedral coordination and short intra-molecular C-H⋯O contacts occur within the cation. In the crystal, the cations form layers perpendicular to [100] and a weak C-H⋯O inter-action links the cations.

An interesting approach of including an upconverter in the MoS counter electrode can yield broadband light harvesting Pt-free DSSC assembly. Here different upconverter (UC) nanoparticles (Yb, Er incorporated NaYF, YF, CeO & YO) were synthesized and loaded in MoS thin film by hydrothermal method. The inclusion of UCs in MoS films exposed without any secondary formation of upconverters and the uniform deposition of the films are confirmed through XRD and FESEM analysis respectively.

Formamidinium lead triiodide (FAPbI) has received significant attention in the field of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) owing to its excellent optoelectronic properties and high thermal stability. However, the photoactive α-FAPbI perovskites are highly susceptible to degradation into non-perovskite δ-FAPbI phases, especially under humid conditions, which severely diminishes the device performance of FAPbI PSCs. Here, we propose an interfacial seeding strategy for regulating crystallization and stabilizing α-FAPbI perovskites in humid air.

Formamidinium lead triiodide (FAPbI) is considered the most promising composition for high-performing single-junction solar cells. However, nonalloyed α-FAPbI is metastable with respect to the photoinactive δ-phase. We have developed a kinetic modulation strategy to fabricate high-quality and stable nonalloyed α-FAPbI films, assisted by cogenetic volatile iodine intercalation and decalation.

The stability of perovskite quantum dot solar cells is one of the key challenges of this technology. This study reveals the unique degradation behavior of cesium lead triiodide (CsPbI) quantum dot solar cells. For the first time, it is shown that the oxygen-induced degradation and performance loss of CsPbI quantum dot photovoltaic devices can be reversed by exposing the degraded samples to humidity, allowing the performance to recover and even surpass the initial performance.

Rationale And Objective: The visualization of soft tissues, like the meniscus, through X-ray micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), requires the use of contrast agents (CAs). While other studies have investigated CA diffusion in fibrocartilagineous tissues, this work aimed to optimize iodine staining protocols for meniscal tissue that improve their visualization by micro-CT. Specific objectives included evaluating the diffusion of CAs within meniscal samples over time, assessing volume changes due to staining, and identifying the iodine ions absorbed by the tissue.
