Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites with structural transformation have garnered continued interest in recent years for their potential as multifunctional materials in the field of optoelectronics and smart devices. Herein, we report a novel hybrid organic-inorganic halide, [CNOH][CdCl(HO)] (). Remarkably, the centrosymmetric compound undergoes a structural transformation to a novel noncentrosymmetric hybrid perovskite [CNOH][CdCl] () after dehydration. Accompanied by the chemical bond cleavage and reorganization, the zero-dimensional (0D) trinuclear cluster in compound transforms into an intriguing one-dimensional (1D) hexagonal perovskite structure in compound , generating multiple optoelectronic switching behaviors. It is worth mentioning that compound demonstrates successive structural phase transitions at 353 and 405 K, resulting in switchable second harmonic generation (SHG) and a dual dielectric response. In addition, compounds and both feature blue-light luminescence, with respective photoluminescence lifetimes of 0.73 and 1.42 ns. This work will offer a pioneering approach and expansive potential for the preparation and development of hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite materials with superior properties.

The formation of non-ion conducting byproducts on zinc anode is notoriously detrimental to aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs). Herein, we successfully transform a representative detrimental byproduct, crystalline zinc hydroxide sulfate (ZHS) to fast-ion conducting solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) via amorphization and fluorination induced by suspending CaF nanoparticles in dilute sulfate electrolytes. Distinct from widely reported nonhomogeneous organic-inorganic hybrid SEIs that exhibit structural and chemical instability, the designed single-phase SEI is homogeneous, mechanically robust, and chemically stable.

Understanding topological defects-controlled structural degradation of layered oxides-a key cathode material for high-performance lithium-ion batteries-plays a critical role in developing next-generation cathode materials. Here, by constructing a nanobattery in an electron microscope enabling atomic-scale monitoring of electrochemcial reactions, we captured the electrochemically driven atomistic dynamics and evolution of dislocations-a most important topological defect in material. We deciphered how dislocations nucleate, move, and annihilate within layered cathodes at the atomic scale.

N-oxide-Functionalized Bipyridines as Strong Electron-Deficient Units to Construct High-Performance n-Type Conjugated Polymers.

Adv Sci (Weinh)

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Functional Molecular Solids, Ministry of Education, School of Chemistry and Materials Science, Anhui Normal University, No.189, Jiuhua South Road, Wuhu, Anhui, 241002, China.

Developing low-cost unipolar n-type organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) is necessary for logic circuits. To achieve this objective, the usage of new electron-deficient building blocks with simple structure and easy synthetic route is desirable. Among all electron-deficient building units, N-oxide-functionalized bipyridines can be prepared through a simple oxidized transformation of bipyridines.

Biological memory networks are thought to store information by experience-dependent changes in the synaptic connectivity between assemblies of neurons. Recent models suggest that these assemblies contain both excitatory and inhibitory neurons (E/I assemblies), resulting in co-tuning and precise balance of excitation and inhibition. To understand computational consequences of E/I assemblies under biologically realistic constraints we built a spiking network model based on experimental data from telencephalic area Dp of adult zebrafish, a precisely balanced recurrent network homologous to piriform cortex.

Control of Interlocking Mode in Pd4L8 Cage Catenanes.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

Precise control over the catenation process in interlocked supramolecular systems remains a significant challenge. Here, we report a system in which a lantern-shaped Pd2L4 cage can dimerize to form two distinct Pd4L8 catenanes with different interlocking degree: a previously described quadruply interlocked double cage motif of D4 symmetry and an unprecedented triply interlocked structure of C2h symmetry. While the former structure features a linear arrangement of four Pd(II) centers, separated by three mechanically linked pockets, the new motif has a staggered shape.
