Article Abstract
Quasi-2D perovskites have demonstrated great application potential in light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Defect passivation with chemicals plays a critical role to achieve high efficiency. However, there are still challenges in comprehensively passivating the defects distributed at surface, bulk, and buried interface of quasi-2D perovskite emitting films, hindering the further improvement of device performance. Herein, 9,9-substituted fluorene derivatives with different terminal functional groups are developed tactfully to realize comprehensive passivation, which greatly contributes to reducing nonradiative recombination at surface, suppressing ion migration in bulk, and filling interfacial charge traps at buried interface, respectively. Eventually, quasi-2D perovskite LEDs have an increased external quantum efficiency from 18.2% to 23.2%, improved operation lifetime by more than six times and lower turn-on voltage simultaneously. Here the importance of comprehensive passivation is highlighted and guidelines for the design and application of passivators for perovskite optoelectronics are provided.

Article Synopsis
- During fast-charging, uneven lithium plating on graphite anodes leads to performance issues and safety risks for lithium-ion batteries due to the formation of a passivation layer known as the solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI).
- A molybdenum disulfide (MoS) coating on natural graphite modifies the SEI properties, resulting in faster charging times and improved long-term cycling performance by enhancing lithium transport and reducing interfacial resistance.
- The MoS-NG anode demonstrates superior fast-charging capabilities, achieving a charging time of 14.7 minutes at 80% state of charge, making it a viable option for electric vehicle applications over 300 cycles without sacrificing energy density.
