The disordered distribution of trap states and ion migration limit the commercial application of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Herein, we apply an oxamic acid potassium salt (OAPS) as a bifunctional additive of perovskite film. The Lewis base group C=O of OAPS can interact with the uncoordinated Pb caused by the I site substitution by Pb and the dangling bonds of the perovskite, which is beneficial to reduce the nonradiative recombination loss. In addition, the countercation K of OAPS is confirmed to occupy the perovskite lattice interstitial sites and result in lattice expansion, inhibiting the formation of iodide Frenkel defects and I ion migration. As a result, the synergistic effect achieves enhanced power conversion efficiency (PCE) from 19.98 to 23.02%, with a fill factor reaching up to 81.90% and suppressed current-voltage hysteresis. The device also presents improved stability, maintaining 93% of the initial PCE after 2000 h of storage.

Mn-containing sodium superionic conductor (NASICON) compounds have shown considerable potential as cathode for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) owing to higher working voltage (V/V: 3.9 V), lower cost, and lower toxicity compared to full vanadium-based NASICON NaV(PO). Taking NaVMn(PO) (NVMP) as an example, its practical application is still restricted by poor electronic conductivity, sluggish intrinsic Na diffusion, and poor high-voltage stability.

One of the primary challenges in commercializing perovskite solar cells (PSCs) is achieving both high power conversion efficiency (PCE) and sufficient stability. We integrate wafer-scale continuous monolayer MoS buffers at the top and bottom of a perovskite layer through a transfer process. These films physically block ion migration of perovskite into carrier transport layers and chemically stabilize the formamidinium lead iodide phase through strong coordination interaction.

Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a significant medical condition characterized by the abrupt decline in kidney function.Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS), a non-invasive therapeutic technique employing low-intensity acoustic wave pulses, has shown promise in promoting tissue repair and regeneration. A novel LIPUS system was developed and evaluated in rat AKI models, focusing on its effects on glomerular filtration rate (GFR), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (SCr), and the Notch1-Akt-eNOS signaling pathway.

Currently, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are at the forefront of energy storage technologies. Silicon-based anodes, with their high capacity and low cost, present a promising alternative to traditional graphite anodes in LIBs, offering the potential for substantial improvements in energy density. However, the significant volumetric changes that silicon-based anodes undergo during charge and discharge cycles can lead to structural degradation.
