The use of layered perovskites is an important strategy to improve the stability of hybrid perovskite materials and their optoelectronic devices. However, tailoring their properties requires accurate structure determination at the atomic scale, which is a challenge for conventional diffraction-based techniques. We demonstrate the use of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) crystallography in determining the structure of layered hybrid perovskites for a mixed-spacer model composed of 2-phenylethylammonium (PEA) and 2-(perfluorophenyl)ethylammonium (FEA) moieties, revealing nanoscale phase segregation. Moreover, we illustrate the application of this structure in perovskite solar cells with power conversion efficiencies that exceed 21%, accompanied by enhanced operational stability.

Tunable Quantum Confinement in Individual Nanoscale Quantum Dots via Interfacial Engineering.

ACS Nano

December 2024

Center for Advanced Quantum Studies, School of Physics and Astronomy, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, China.

Introducing quantum confinement has shown promise to enable control of charge carriers. Although recent advances make it possible to realize confinement from semiclassical regime to quantum regime, achieving control of electronic potentials in individual nanoscale quantum dots (QDs) has remained challenging. Here, we demonstrate the ability to tune quantum confined states in individual nanoscale graphene QDs, which are realized by inserting nanoscale monolayer WSe islands in graphene/WSe heterostructures via interfacial engineering.

Propagation of Orientation Across Lengthscales in Sheared Self-Assembling Hierarchical Suspensions via Rheo-PLI-SAXS.

Adv Sci (Weinh)

December 2024

Department of Industrial and Materials Science, Division of Engineering Materials, Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, SE-412 96, Sweden.

Simultaneous rheological, polarized light imaging, and small-angle X-ray scattering experiments (Rheo-PLI-SAXS) are developed, thereby providing unprecedented level of insight into the multiscale orientation of hierarchical systems in simple shear. Notably, it is observed that mesoscale alignment in the flow direction does not develop simultaneously across nano-micro lengthscales in sheared suspensions of rod-like chiral-nematic (meso) phase forming cellulose nanocrystals. Rather, with increasing shear rate, orientation is observed first at mesoscale and then extends to the nanoscale, with influencing factors being the aggregation state of the hierarchy and concentration.
