Abstract The extraordinary electronic, optical, and mechanical characteristics of 2D materials make them promising candidates for optoelectronics, specifically in infrared (IR) detectors owing to their flexible composition tunable optoelectronic properties. This review presents the recent progress IR composed hybrid structures, including graphene, black phosphorous, transition metal dichalcogenides, halide perovskite as well other new layered heterostructures. focus is on short‐wave,...
Harvesting energy from the ambient mechanical by using flexible piezoelectric nanogenerator is a revolutionary step toward achieving reliable and green source. Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), polymer, can be potential candidate for if its property enhanced. In present work, we have shown that polar crystalline β ‐phase of PVDF, which responsible property, enhanced 48.2% to 76.1% just adding ZnO nanorods into PVDF matrix without any or electrical treatment. A systematic investigation PVDF‐ZnO...

Despite the exceptional performance of hybrid perovskites in photovoltaics, their susceptibility to ambient factors, particularly humidity, gives rise well-recognized stability issue. In present work, microstripes CH3NH3PbI3 are fabricated on flexible substrates, and they exhibit much larger response relative humidity (RH) levels than continuous films single crystals. The resistance decreases by four orders magnitude changing RH level from 10 95%. Fast recovery time 100 500 ms, respectively,...

Abstract Metal halide perovskite solar cells have an appropriate bandgap (1.5–1.6 eV), and thus output voltage (>1 V), to directly drive water splitting. Despite significant progress, their moisture sensitivity still hampers application for integrated monolithic devices. Furthermore, the prevalence of use noble metals as co‐catalysts existing perovskite‐based devices undermines low‐cost H 2 production. Here, a architecture stable with earth‐abundant is reported, demonstrating unassisted...
The interest in two-dimensional and layered materials continues to expand, driven by the compelling properties of individual atomic layers that can be stacked and/or twisted into synthetic heterostructures. plethora electronic as well emergence many different quasiparticles, including plasmons, polaritons, trions excitons with large, tunable binding energies all controlled modulated through electrical means has given rise device applications. In addition, these exhibit both room-temperature...
Very high surface area, self-assembled, highly crystalline mesoporous SrTiO3 (STO) thin films were developed for photoelectrochemical water splitting. Much improved performance of these compared to planar STO and any other form such as single crystal samples nanostructures was demonstrated. The resulted from very large area optimization carrier concentration.
Interlayer excitons (IXs) in two-dimensional (2D) heterostructures provide an exciting avenue for exploring optoelectronic and valleytronic phenomena. Presently, research is limited to transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) based 2D heterostructure samples, which require strict lattice (mis) match interlayer twist angle requirements. Here, we explore a system with experimental observation of spin-valley layer coupling realize helicity-resolved IXs, without the requirement specific geometric...
