A myriad of studies and strategies have already been devoted to improving the stability of perovskite films; however, the role of the different perovskite crystal facets in stability is still unknown. Here, we reveal the underlying mechanisms of facet-dependent degradation of formamidinium lead iodide (FAPbI 3 ) films. We show that the (100) facet is substantially more vulnerable to moisture-induced degradation than the (111) facet. With combined experimental and theoretical studies, the degrada

Abstract Hardware-based cryptography that exploits physical unclonable functions is required for the secure identification and authentication of devices in the Internet of Things. However, physical unclonable functions are typically based on anticounterfeit identifiers created from randomized microscale patterns or non-predictable fluctuations of electrical response in semiconductor devices, and the validation of an encrypted signature relies on a single-purpose method such as microscopy or elec

Understanding the interplay between the surface structure and the passivation materials and their effects associated with surface structure modification is of fundamental importance; however, it remains an unsolved problem in the perovskite passivation field. Here, we report a surface passivation principle for efficient perovskite solar cells via a facet-dependent passivation phenomenon. The passivation process selectively occurs on facets, which is observed with various post-treatment materials

Abstract Structurally and chemically defective activated‐crumbled graphene (A‐CG) is employed to achieve unique synergy of large reversible potassium (K) and sodium (Na) ion storage capacity with fast charging and extended cyclability. A‐CG synthesis consists of low temperature spraying of graphene oxide slurry, followed by partial reduction annealing and air activation. For K storage, the reversible capacities are 340 mAh g −1 at 0.04 A g −1 , 261 mAh g −1 at 0.5 A g −1 , and 210 mAh g −1 at 2

We report on the wrinkle formation in a thin film produced by the sol-gel method. Through the relaxation of stress, which results from the removal of the solvent during the drying process, an isotropic wavy pattern is generated in the form of skeletal branches. The patterns have a dominant wavelength satisfying a relationship of three-fourths order of thickness. Densification of the gelated film is enhanced by an increase in the volumetric strain caused by the evaporation of the remaining solven

Abstract Solar‐thermal materials have been intensively studied in the context of production and localization of thermal energy, targeting an industry level application. Although photonic and optical strategies for enhancing light absorption have increased the efficiency of photo excitation/conversion into thermal energy, most of them have several limitations such as large area fabrication, thermal stability and broadband/omnidirectional light absorption. In this study, a gold‐coated hierarchical

Three-order enhanced upconversion luminescence from upconversion nanoparticles is suggested by way of a promising platform utilizing a disordered array of plasmonic metal nanoparticles. Its application toward highly sensitive NIR photodetectors is discussed.

We describe a metal nanodisk-insulator-metal (MIM) structure that enhances lanthanide-based upconversion (UC) and downshifting (DS) simultaneously. The structure was fabricated using a nanotransfer printing method that facilitates large-area applications of nanostructures for optoelectronic devices. The proposed MIM structure is a promising way to harness the entire solar spectrum by converting both ultraviolet and near-infrared to visible light concurrently through resonant-mode excitation. The

Abstract Advanced materials with low density and high strength impose transformative impacts in the construction, aerospace, and automobile industries. These materials can be realized by assembling well‐designed modular building units (BUs) into interconnected structures. This study uses a hierarchical design strategy to demonstrate a new class of carbon‐based, ultralight, strong, and even superelastic closed‐cellular network structures. Here, the BUs are prepared by a multiscale design approach

Abstract Physical entities with inherent randomness have been investigated as anti‐counterfeiting labels based on physical unclonable functions (PUFs). Herein, a transparent and flexible optical PUF label associated with multilevel complexity is demonstrated by taking advantage of the optical properties of hierarchical morphologies of the composite film composed of metal halide perovskite nanoparticles (MAPbBr 3 NPs) and the intrinsic spinodal‐decomposition‐like phase separation of polymer blend

We report an experimental study on the highly enhanced upconversion luminescence (UCL) of β-NaYF4:Yb(3+)/Er(3+) nanocrystals (NCs) in a plasmonic architecture. For the architecture, we designed a thin film device composed of a thin layer of NCs capped with an upper layer of a plasmonic nanodome array (pNDA) and lower substrate of a back reflector (BR). Compared to the UCL intensity observed in a glass reference substrate, the designed plasmonic architecture exhibits distinctively strong luminesc

MXene-blanketed Au nanoparticle assembly with energy level alignment effectively facilitates the charge transfer effect while securing the electromagnetic effect by guiding the analyte near to hotspot center for surface enhanced Raman scattering.

The planar spin glass pattern is widely known for its inherent randomness, resulting from the geometrical frustration. As such, developing physical unclonable functions (PUFs)-which operate with device randomness-with planar spin glass patterns is a promising candidate for an advanced security systems in the upcoming digitalized society. Despite their inherent randomness, traditional magnetic spin glass patterns pose considerable obstacles in detection, making it challenging to achieve authentic

Achieving defect-free block copolymer (BCP) nanopatterns with a long-ranged orientation over a large area remains a persistent challenge, impeding the successful and widespread application of BCP self-assembly. Here, we demonstrate a new experimental strategy for defect annihilation while conserving structural order and enhancing uniformity of nanopatterns. Sequential shear alignment and solvent vapor annealing generate perfectly aligned nanopatterns with a low defect density over centimeter-sca
