AbstractThis short review summarizes our recent progress in fiber-shaped lithium-ion batteries and lithium-air batteries based on carbon nanotube hybrid fiber electrodes. The fiber architecture allows batteries to be deformable in all dimensions and bear various deformations such as bending, tying, twisting and even stretching. They are scaled up and further woven into breathable, flexible, stretchable and shape-memory textiles to effectively meet the requirements of modern electronics such as wearable products.

It is necessary to develop semitransparent photovoltaic cell for increasing the energy density from sunlight, useful for harvesting solar energy through the windows and roofs of buildings and vehicles. Current semitransparent photovoltaics are mostly based on Si, but it is difficult to adjust the color transmitted through Si cells intrinsically for enhancing the visual comfort for human. Recent intensive studies on translucent polymer- and perovskite-based photovoltaic cells offer considerable opportunities to escape from Si-oriented photovoltaics because their electrical and optical properties can be easily controlled by adjusting the material composition. Here, we review recent progress in materials fabrication, design of cell structure, and device engineering/characterization for high-performance/semitransparent organic and perovskite solar cells, and discuss major problems to overcome for commercialization of these solar cells.

Matrix Properties

In the last decade, biopolymer matrices reinforced with nanofillers have attracted great research efforts thanks to the synergistic characteristics derived from the combination of these two components. In this framework, this review focuses on the fundamental principles and recent progress in the field of aliphatic polyester-based nanocomposites for regenerative medicine applications. Traditional and emerging polymer nanocomposites are described in terms of polymer matrix properties and synthesis methods, used nanofillers, and nanocomposite processing and properties. Special attention has been paid to the most recent nanocomposite systems developed by combining alternative copolymerization strategies with specific nanoparticles. Thermal, electrical, biodegradation, and surface properties have been illustrated and correlated with the nanoparticle kind, content, and shape. Finally, cell-polymer (nanocomposite) interactions have been described by reviewing analysis methodologies such as primary and stem cell viability, adhesion, morphology, and differentiation processes.

Background: Perylene diimide (PDI) is among the most investigated non-fullerene electron acceptor for organic solar cells (OSCs). Constructing PDI derivatives into three-dimensional propeller-like molecular structures is not only one of the viable routes to suppress the over aggregation tendency of the PDI chromophores, but also raises possibilities to tune and optimize the optoelectronic property of the molecules. Objective: In this work, we reported the design, synthesis, and characterization of three electron-accepting materials, namely BOZ-PDI, BTZ-PDI, and BIZ-PDI, each with three PDI arms linked to benzotrioxazole, benzotrithiazole, and benzotriimidazole based center cores, respectively. Method: The introduction of electron-withdrawing center cores with heteroatoms does not significantly complicate the synthesis of the acceptor molecules but drastically influences the energy levels of the propeller-like PDI derivatives. Result: The highest power conversion efficiency was obtained with benzoxazole-based BOZ-PDI reaching 7.70% for its higher photon absorption and charge transport ability. Conclusion: This work explores the utilization of electron-withdrawing cores with heteroatoms in the propeller-like PDI derivatives, which provides a handy tool to construct high-performance non-fullerene acceptor materials.
