Regulation of the cGAS-STING Pathway

Andrea Ablasser, Bing Zhang, Pengbiao Xu

The cGAS-cGAMP-STING pathway is essential for immune defense against pathogens. Upon binding DNA, cGAS synthesizes cGAMP, which activates STING, leading to potent innate immune effector responses. However, lacking specific features to distinguish between s ...

In Situ Graded Passivation via Porphyrin Derivative with Enhanced Photovoltage and Fill Factor in Perovskite Solar Cells

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Yi Zhang, Bing Zhang, Keith Gregory Brooks

While perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have recently experienced a rapid rise in power conversion efficiency (PCE), the prevailing PSCs still contain nondesirable defects in the interior and interface of the perovskite layer, which limits further enhancement ...

WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH2021

Engineering long-term stability into perovskite solar cells via application of a multi-functional TFSI-based ionic liquid

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Andreas Züttel, Zhaofu Fei, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Bin Ding, Bing Zhang, Yi Zhang, Hiroyuki Kanda

Organic-inorganic metal-halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have achieved a certified power-conversion efficiency (PCE) of 25.5%. However, long-term stability and air stability of the PSCs are still major concerns and hamper commercialization. Herein, we ...
