Abstract Developing cost effective electrocatalysts with high oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity is essential for large‐scale application of many electrochemical energy systems. Although the impacts either lattice strain or defects on OER performance oxide catalysts have been extensively investigated, effects both factors are normally treated separately.

Abstract Most contemporary X‐ray detectors adopt device structures with non/low‐gain energy conversion, such that a fairly thick photoconductor or scintillator is required to generate sufficient X‐ray‐induced charges, and thus numerous merits for thin devices, as mechanical flexibility high spatial resolution, have be compromised. This dilemma overcome by adopting new high‐gain concept of heterojunction phototransistor. In contrast conventional detectors, phototransistors allow both...

Abstract With the rapid development of performance and long‐term stability, bismuth vanadate (BiVO 4 ) has emerged as preferred photoanode in photoelectrochemical tandem devices. Although state‐of‐the‐art BiVO photoanodes realize a saturated photocurrent density approaching theoretical maximum, fill factor (FF) is still inferior, pulling down half‐cell applied bias photon‐to‐current efficiency (HC‐ABPE). Among major fundamental limitations are Fermi level pinning sluggish surface kinetics at...
