The development of light-electricity conversion in nanomaterials has drawn intensive attention to the topic of achieving high efficiency and environmentally adaptive photoelectric technologies. Besides traditional improving methods, we noted that low-temperature cooling possesses advantages in applicability, stability and nondamaging characteristics. Because of the temperature-related physical properties of nanoscale materials, the working mechanism of cooling originates from intrinsic characteristics, such as crystal structure, carrier motion and carrier or trap density. Here, emerging advances in cooling-enhanced photoelectric performance are reviewed, including aspects of materials, performance and mechanisms. Finally, potential applications and existing issues are also summarized. These investigations on low-temperature cooling unveil it as an innovative strategy to further realize improvement to photoelectric conversion without damaging intrinsic components and foresee high-performance applications in extreme conditions.

In this work, we use experimental and theoretical techniques to study the origin of the boosted hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalytic activity of two pyridyl-pyrrolidine functionalized C fullerenes. Notably, the mono-(pyridyl-pyrrolidine) penta-adduct of C has exhibited a remarkable HER catalytic activity as a metal-free catalyst, delivering an overpotential () of 75 mV RHE and a very low onset potential of -45 mV RHE. This work addresses fundamental questions about how functionalization on C changes the electron density on fullerene cages for high-performance HER electrocatalysis.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that is widely used for high-resolution imaging of soft tissues and organs. However, the slow speed of MRI imaging, especially in high-resolution or dynamic scans, makes MRI reconstruction an important research topic. Currently, MRI reconstruction methods based on deep learning (DL) have garnered significant attention, and they improve the reconstruction quality by learning complex image features.

In organic solar cells, the aggregation and crystallization of polymers are significant for bulk heterojunction. Blending with acceptor materials, polymer donor materials can adjust their aggregation by the movement of the chain segments. In this paper, the unfused structures based on thiophene and carbazole are respectively designed and introduced into the donor-acceptor copolymer donor materials to investigate the influence of flexible and rigid structures on polymer-aggregation leading photoelectric performance.
