The fabrication of high-quality organic-inorganic hybrid halide perovskite layers is the key prerequisite for the realization of high efficient photon energy harvest and electric energy conversion in their related solar cells. In this article, we report a novel fabrication technique of CH3NH3PbI3 layer based on high temperature chemical vapor reaction. CH3NH3PbI3 layers have been prepared by the reaction of PbI2 films which were deposited by pulsed laser deposition, with CH3NH3I vapor at various temperatures from 160 oC to 210 oC. X-ray diffraction patterns confirm the formation of pure phase, and photoluminescence spectra show the strong peak at around 760 nm. Scanning electron microscopy images confirm the significantly increased average grain size from nearly 1 {mu}m at low reaction temperature of 160 oC to more than 10 {mu}m at high reaction temperature of 200 oC. The solar cells were fabricated, and short-circuit current density of 15.75 mA/cm2, open-circuit voltage of 0.49 V and fill factor of 71.66% have been obtained.

Devices made from graphene encapsulated in hexagonal boron-nitride exhibit pronounced negative bend resistance and an anomalous Hall effect, which are a direct consequence of room-temperature ballistic transport on a micrometer scale for a wide range
of carrier concentrations. The encapsulation makes graphene practically insusceptible to the ambient atmosphere and, simultaneously, allows the use of boron nitride as an ultrathin top gate dielectric.
La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) films with extraordinarily wide atomic terraces are epitaxially grown on SrTiO3 (100) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. Atomic force microscopy measurements on the LSMO films show that the atomic step is ~ 4 {AA} and the at
omic terrace width is more than 2 micrometers. For a 20 monolayers (MLs) LSMO film, the magnetization is determined to be 255 +- 15 emu/cm3 at room temperature, corresponding to 1.70 + - 0.11 Bohr magneton per Mn atom. As the thickness of LSMO increases from 8 MLs to 20 MLs, the critical thickness for the temperature dependent insulator-to-metal behavior transition is shown to be 9 MLs. Furthermore, post-annealing in oxygen environment improves the electron transport and magnetic properties of the LSMO films.
Insulating uniaxial room-temperature ferromagnets are a prerequisite for commonplace spin wave-based devices, the obstacle in contemporary ferromagnets being the coupling of ferromagnetism with large conductivity. We show that the uniaxial $A^{1+2x}$
Ti$^{4+}$$_{1-x}$O$_3$ (ATO), $A=$Ni$^{2+}$,Co$^{2+}$ and $0.6<x leq 1$, thin films are electrically insulating ferromagnets already at room-temperature. The octahedra network of the ATO and ilmenite structures are similar yet different octahedra-filling proved to be a route to switch from the antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic regime. Octahedra can continuously be filled up to $x=1$, or vacated $(-0.24<x<0)$ in the ATO structure. TiO-layers, which separate the ferromagnetic (Ni,Co)O-layers and intermediate the antiferromagnetic coupling between the ferromagnetic layers in the NiTiO$_3$ and CoTiO$_3$ ilmenites, can continuously be replaced by (Ni,Co)O-layers to convert the ATO-films to ferromagnetic insulator with abundant direct cation interactions.
Electroactive polymer thin films undergo repeated reversible structural change during operation in electrochemical applications. While synchrotron X-ray scattering is powerful for the characterization of stand-alone and ex-situ organic thin films, in
situ structural characterization has been underutilized--in large part due to complications arising from supporting electrolyte scattering. This has greatly hampered the development of application relevant structure property relationships. Therefore, we have developed a new methodology for in situ and operando X-ray characterization that separates the incident and scattered X-ray beam path from the electrolyte. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate the in situ structural changes of weakly-scattering, organic mixed ionic-electronic conductor thin films in an aqueous electrolyte environment, enabling access to previously unexplored changes in the pi-pi peak and diffuse scatter in situ, while capturing the solvent swollen thin film structure which was inaccessible in previous ex situ studies. These in situ measurements improve the sensitivity to structural changes, capturing minute changes not possible ex situ, and have multimodal potential such as combined Raman measurements that also serve to validate the true in situ/operando conditions of the cell. Finally, we examine new directions enabled by this operando cell design and compare state of the art measurements.
Thermoelectric (TE) materials achieve localised conversion between thermal and electric energies, and the conversion efficiency is determined by a figure of merit zT. Up to date, two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) related TE materials hold the recor
ds for zT near room-temperature. A sharp increase in zT up to ~2.0 was observed previously for superlattice materials such as PbSeTe, Bi2Te3/Sb2Te3 and SrNb0.2Ti0.8O3/SrTiO3, when the thicknesses of these TE materials were spatially confine within sub-nanometre scale. The two-dimensional confinement of carriers enlarges the density of states near the Fermi energy3-6 and triggers electron phonon coupling. This overcomes the conventional {sigma}-S trade-off to more independently improve S, and thereby further increases thermoelectric power factors (PF=S2{sigma}). Nevertheless, practical applications of the present 2DEG materials for high power energy
