In this study, we demonstrate that the crystallization process of CsPbIBr films can be modulated when small amounts of additives are added to the precursor solution, leading to the formation of the bright brownish α-phase perovskite films with high orientation along the [100] crystallographic direction. Doped CsPbIBr films exhibit improved crystallinity, with high coverage, large grain size and pinhole-free surface morphology, suitable for making high performance optoelectronic devices. We also explored the role of Cl in the photophysical properties of CsPbIBr perovskite films using the temperature dependent photoluminescence technique. We found that the Cl ions enhance the photoluminescence emission by reducing the density of trap states, and also decrease the exciton binding energy from (22 ± 3) meV to (11 ± 2) meV. We believe this work contributes to understanding the effect of doping on the crystallization process with an in-depth insight into the photophysical properties of the cesium-based perovskite materials.

A novel series of D-A-D-type 9-phenyl-9-phosphafluorene oxide (PhFlOP) derivatives was prepared and is reported herein. The synthetic protocol involved 5 steps from commercially available 2-bromo-4-fluoro-1-nitrobenzene, featuring a noble-metal-free system, mild reaction conditions, and a good yield, especially for the final CsCO-facilitated nucleophilic substitution (77-91% yield). The characterization data obtained from IR and NMR spectroscopy (H, C, F, and P) as well as HRMS spectrometry were in full agreement with the expected structures, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis was conducted to confirm the structure of compound .

Photophysical properties of condensed systems generally originate from collective contributions of all components in their stochastically fluctuated structures and are strongly influenced under strain of chromophores. To precisely identify how the stochastically fluctuated monomers synergistically manipulate the properties, we propose a statistic strategy over sufficient ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) samplings and for the first time uncover that synergistic oscillatory twisting (SOT) of neighboring under-strain monomers manipulates the bifunction of rubrene crystal. The under-strain trunk SOT can regulate both singlet fission (SF) and triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA), enabling their coexistence and dominance switching by dynamically modulating the matching of excitation energies.

Pnictogen bond (PnB) occurring on the group-15 elements is recognized as σ- or π-hole-based interaction that has garnered attention in the fields of anion recognition and organocatalysis. Due to the polyvalent feature of pnictogens and high directionality, PnB possesses potential in the design of convergent coassembled materials with acceptors containing lone pair electrons or anions, which however is rarely explored so far. Herein, we unveil the role of antimony (Sb)-based PnB donors in producing self-assembled chiroptical materials with lone pair electron containing acceptors.

3-Amino boron dipyrromethenes (BODIPYs) are a versatile class of fluorophores widely utilized in live cell imaging, photodynamic therapy, and fluorescent materials science. Despite the growing demand for optically active BODIPYs, the synthesis of chiral 3-amino-BODIPYs, particularly the catalytic asymmetric version, remains a challenge. Herein, we report the synthesis of boron-stereogenic 3-amino-BODIPYs via a palladium-catalyzed desymmetric C-N cross-coupling of prochiral 3,5-dihalogen-BODIPYs.

ConspectusLight-driven polymerizations and their application in 3D printing have revolutionized manufacturing across diverse sectors, from healthcare to fine arts. Despite the popularized notion that with 3D printing "imagination is the only limit", we and others in the scientific community have identified fundamental hurdles that restrict our capabilities in this space. Herein, we describe the group's efforts in developing photochemical systems that respond to nontraditional colors of light to elicit the rapid, spatiotemporally controlled formation of plastics.
