As one of the most critical approaches to resolve the energy crisis and environmental
concerns, carbon dioxide (CO2) photoreduction into value‐added chemicals and solar fuels …

Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs), as a newfashioned light-absorbing material with great
promise in artificial photosystems, generally exhibit attractive photoactivity and selectivity in …

We show that converting the surfaces of lead halide perovskite to water-insoluble lead (II)
oxysalt through reaction with sulfate or phosphate ions can effectively stabilize the …

This review article provides an overview of recent advances in the study and understanding
of dynamics of excitons in semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) or quantum dots (QDs) …

Work function is a fundamental property of a material's surface. It is playing an ever more
important role in engineering new energy materials and efficient energy devices, especially …

Semiconductor nanocrystals are promising for use in cheap and highly efficient solar cells. A
high efficiency can be achieved by carrier multiplication (CM), which yields multiple electron …

Functional nanomaterials (NM) of different size, shape, chemical composition, and surface
chemistry are of increasing relevance for many key technologies of the twenty-first century …

The trap-assisted nonradiative recombination at grain surface and grain boundary (GB) of
perovskite films impede the further improvement of power conversion efficiency (PCE) and …

Nanocrystal quantum dots (QD) show great promise toward improving solar cell efficiencies
through the use of quantum confinement to tune absorbance across the solar spectrum and …

In a conventional solar cell, the energy of an absorbed photon in excess of the band gap is
rapidly lost as heat, and this is one of the main reasons that the theoretical efficiency is …
