Using organo-metal halide perovskite films to improve solar cells.

The first experiments to determine the ferroelectric properties of hafnium oxide have revealed that it can be deposited as ultra-thin films.

Find out how Materials Today is evolving.

For the first time, scientists have created a perovskite quantum dot and shown that it can form the basis for an efficient solar cell.

Adding defects to an iron-based superconductor can double the amount of electrical current it can carry and increase its critical temperature.

Scientists have developed a solvent system with reduced toxicity that can be used in the manufacture of perovskite solar cells.

A novel three-in-one instrument can correlate the flowability of soft ‘gooey’ materials with their underlying microstructure and composition.

Scientists have determined how each of five distinct types of belite crystal contribute to concrete's ease of manufacture and ultimate strength.

The Editors now welcome comprehensive articles and short communications reporting breakthrough discoveries and major technical achievements.
