Abstract Two-dimensional atomic crystals, such as two-dimensional oxides, have attracted much attention in energy storage because nearly all of the atoms can be exposed to electrolyte and involved redox reactions. However, current strategies are largely limited intrinsically layered compounds. Here we report a general strategy that uses surfaces water-soluble salt crystals growth templates is applicable not only compounds but also various transition metal hexagonal-MoO 3 , MoO 2 MnO...

Abstract Hole‐transporting materials (HTMs) are indispensable for realizing efficient and stable perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Herein, a novel dibenzo[g,p]chrysene‐based HTM, termed FTPE‐OSMe, is synthesized with peripheral methoxy‐ methylthio‐groups, which contrasts most other small molecule HTMs that feature only methoxy‐groups. The presence of methylthio‐groups endows FTPE‐OSMe appropriate energy levels, high‐hole mobility enhanced interfacial interactions. PSCs employing Li‐TFSI...
