Ultralow threshold optical gain enabled by quantum rings of inverted type-I CdS/CdSe core/crown nanoplatelets in the blue by Delikanli, Savas, Isik, Furkan, Shabani, Farzan, Baruj, Hamed Dehghanpour, Taghipour, Nima, Demir, Hilmi Volkan

“…Achieving low-threshold optical gain for solution-processed materials is crucial for their real-life applications and deployment as gain media. However, the realization of low gain threshold in the blue region has shown to be technically an extremely challenging task using colloidal nanocrystals as a result of fast nonradiative Auger rates in smaller nanocrystals. …”

Realizing high and stable electrocatalytic oxygen evolution for iron-based perovskites by co-doping-induced structural and electronic modulation by She, Sixuan, Zhu, Yinlong, Wu, Xinhao, Hu, Zhiwei, Shelke, Abhijeet, Pong, Way-Faung, Chen, Yubo, Song, Yufei, Liang, Mingzhuang, Chen, Chien-Te, Wang, Huanting, Zhou, Wei, Shao, Zongping

“…The increased activity and stability of SCFN can be ascribed to co-doping-induced synergistic promotion between structural and electronic modulation, where Ce doping facilitates the formation of a 3D corner-sharing cubic structure and Ni doping gives rise to strong electronic interactions between active sites, which is key to achieving a highly active long-life catalyst. Importantly, this strategy is universal and can be extended to other Fe-based parent perovskite oxides with high structural diversity.…”
