Axially chiral molecular contacts with low isomerization barriers for perovskite solar cells

A non-coplanar axially chiral molecular contact favours the crystalline growth of perovskite film and improves interfacial stability in perovskite solar cells. Small-area devices yield a certified power conversion efficiency of 26.44% and maintain 98% of it after 2,000 hours of operation.

Stabilizing high-efficiency perovskite solar cells via strategic interfacial contact engineering

Engineering the perovskite–electrical contact interface with sodium heptafluorobutyrate reduces interfacial defects and improves charge transport in perovskite solar cells. Functionalized devices deliver a certified power conversion efficiency of 26.96%, which is fully retained after 1,200 h of continuous operation under 1-sun illumination.

Disruption of tryptophan metabolism by high-fat diet-triggered maternal immune activation promotes social behavioral deficits in male mice

Diet-related maternal obesity is linked to neurodevelopmental disorders in offspring, yet underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here, authors show that maternal high-fat diets trigger immune-metabolic dysregulation, elevating neurotoxic kynurenine metabolites in fetal brains, and blocking these pathways rescues social deficits in male mice, highlighting preventive strategies for neurodevelopmental disorders.

The +2 oxidation state of Cr incorporated into the crystal lattice of UO₂

Uranium dioxide is commonly doped with chromium to improve its performance as a nuclear fuel. Here, with the aid of ab initio simulations and re-evaluation of experimental data, the oxidation state of chromium in the uranium dioxide lattice is identified as +2, not the widely believed +3.
