Perovskite-based photovoltaics are currently achieving PCEs of just over 22%. Here are some interesting highlights of recent perovskite research.
Technology
A Multi-Functional Self-Healing Hydrogel
The new self-healing hydrogel can recover its functionalities after being cut, without external stimuli.
Steps to Remedy In Vitro–In Vivo Discrepancies: Nanoparticle Interactions with Blood and Lymph
Interactions of nanoparticles with their surroundings, both in vitro and in vivo, are different simply because the environments are different. As such, the first insight towards answering complex questions associated with in vitro-in vivo translation are provided.
Protein Science in Canada
The 31st Annual Symposium of the Protein Society will take place in Montreal, Canada. To commemorate this spectacular event and to celebrate our Canadian authors, a Virtual Issue in Protein Science is presented featuring the best of recent Canadian published papers.
Repeating Structures: Dynamic Self-assembly as a Mass-Fabrication Technology
Researchers from South Korea report a dynamic self-assembly technology to fabricate repeating structures from magnetic particles.
Triboelectric Generators using Microneedle-Structured Polydimethysiloxane
Researchers demonstrate a facile method and novel mechanism using microneedle-structured polydimethysiloxane for triboelectric (nano)generator (TEG/TENG) applications.
Solar Glasses: A Glimpse into the Bright Future of Wearable Electronics
In an important step forward for wearable electronics, researchers design and build a set of “solar glasses”, which integrate transparent solar cells into the lenses and electronics into the frames, to measure and display the instantaneous light intensity and ambient temperature.
Self-Learning Chip Composes Music
A brain-inspired, neuromorphic chip has the capability of self-learning and has been demonstrated the ability to compose music.
3D Printing with a Silicone Paste
Researchers achieved 3D printing of flexible silicone rubber structures through combining water with solid and liquid forms of silicone into a pasty ink.
