Towards high-powered remote WLED based on flexible white-luminescent polymer composite films containing S, N co-doped graphene quantum dots by Wang, Xiao-Fei, Wang, Gui-Gen, Li, Jia-Bing, Liu, Zheng, Zhao, Wen-Feng, Han, Jie-Cai

“…To this end, the S, N-GQDs with an average diameter of ∼4.46 nm are obtained by a hydrothermal approach using citric acid and thiourea as source materials. The PL spectra of S, N-GQDs show an excitation-independent behavior in the range of 300–380 nm. …”

Nanoparticle-induced grain growth of carbon-free solution-processed CuIn(S,Se)2 solar cell with 6% efficiency by Cai, Yongan, Ho, John C. W., Batabyal, Sudip Kumar, Liu, Wei, Sun, Yun, Mhaisalkar, Subodh Gautam, Wong, Lydia Helena

“…In this paper, we develop a new technique to deposit large grain, Carbon-free CISSe absorber layers from aqueous nanoparticle/precursor mixture which resulted in a solar cell with PCE of 6.2%. CuCl2, InCl3, and thiourea were mixed with CuS and In2S3 nanoparticles in water to form the unique nanoparticle/precursor solution. …”

Mechanically resistant and sustainable cellulose-based composite aerogels with excellent flame retardant, sound-absorption, and superantiwetting ability for advanced engineering ma... by He, Chenglin, Huang, Jianying, Li, Shuhui, Meng, Kai, Zhang, Liyuan, Chen, Zhong, Lai, Yuekun

“…The results demonstrated that the AH NPs homogeneous dispersion within cellulose aerogel, and the presence of AH NPs did not have a remarkable influence on the homogeneous porous structure of cellulose aerogels when compared with cellulose aerogel prepared from the NaOH/urea/thiourea solution. The prepared composite cellulose aerogels showed excellent flame retardancy, the peak of heat release rate (PHRR) of the composite aerogels decreased significantly from 280 W/g of the control sample to 22 W/g, and total heat release (THR) of the composite aerogels decreased remarkably from 13.2 kJ/g to 1.6 kJ/g. …”
