- Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) suffer from significant nonradiative recombination at perovskite/charge transport layer heterojunction, seriously limiting their power conversion efficiencies. Herein, solution-processed chromium multioxide (CrOx) is judiciously selected to construct a MAPbI(3)/CrOx/Spiro-OMeTAD hole-selective heterojunction. It is demonstrated that the inserted CrOx not only effectively reduces defect sites via redox shuttle at perovskite contact, but also decreases valence band maximum (VBM)-HOMO offset between perovskite and Spiro-OMeTAD. This will diminish thermionic losses for collecting holes and thus promote charge transport across the heterojunction, suppressing both defect-assisted recombination and interface carrier recombination. As a result, a remarkable improvement of 21.21% efficiency with excellent device stability is achieved compared to 18.46% of the control device, which is among the highest efficiencies for polycrystalline MAPbI(3) based n-i-p planar PSCs reported to date. These findings of this work provide new insights into novel charge-selective heterojunctions for further enhancing efficiency and stability of PSCs.

- N-glycosylation is a major post-translational modification of proteins and involved in many diseases, however, the state and role of N-glycosylation in cartilage degeneration of osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH) remain unclear. The aim of this study is to identify the glycoproteins of ONFH hip cartilage. Cartilage tissues were collected from nine patients with ONFH and nine individuals with traumatic femoral neck fracture. Cartilage glycoproteins were identified by glycoproteomics based on LC-MS/MS. The differentially N-glycoproteins including glycosites were identified in ONFH and controls. A total of 408 N-glycoproteins with 444 N-glycosites were identified in ONFH and control cartilage. Among them, 104 N-glycoproteins with 130 N-glycosites were significantly differential in ONFH and control cartilage, which including matrix-remodeling-associated protein 5, prolow-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1, clusterin and lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 2. Gene Ontology analysis revealed the significantly differential glycoproteins mainly belonged to protein metabolic process, single-multicellular organism process, proteolysis, biological adhesion and cell adhesion. KEGG pathway and protein-protein interaction analysis suggested that the significantly differential glycoproteins were associated with PI3K-Akt signalling pathway, ECM-receptor interaction, protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum and N-glycan biosynthesis. This information provides substantial insight into the role of protein glycosylation in the development of cartilage degeneration of ONFH patients.

- Layered metal-organic frameworks attract interests for optoelectronics and spintronics. Here, the authors report a strategy to tune interlayer charge transport and thermoelectric properties via side-chain induced control of the layer spacing. Two-dimensional conjugated metal-organic frameworks (2D c-MOFs) have attracted increasing interests for (opto)-electronics and spintronics. They generally consist of van der Waals stacked layers and exhibit layer-depended electronic properties. While considerable efforts have been made to regulate the charge transport within a layer, precise control of electronic coupling between layers has not yet been achieved. Herein, we report a strategy to precisely tune interlayer charge transport in 2D c-MOFs via side-chain induced control of the layer spacing. We design hexaiminotriindole ligands allowing programmed functionalization with tailored alkyl chains (HATI_CX, X = 1,3,4; X refers to the carbon numbers of the alkyl chains) for the synthesis of semiconducting Ni-3(HATI_CX)(2). The layer spacing of these MOFs can be precisely varied from 3.40 to 3.70 angstrom, leading to widened band gap, suppressed carrier mobilities, and significant improvement of the Seebeck coefficient. With this demonstration, we further achieve a record-high thermoelectric power factor of 68 +/- 3 nW m(-1) K-2 in Ni-3(HATI_C3)(2), superior to the reported holes-dominated MOFs.
