This review focuses on fused-ring carbazole derivatives, their molecular design, electronic and photophysical properties, and their applications as the emitter and/or the host material in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs).

A comprehensive summary on the developments and status of anode catalysts towards proton exchange membrane water electrolysis technology.

This review provides current research progress on rare earth MOFs, including synthesis methods and photocatalytic and electrocatalytic applications of rare earth MOFs.

The various potential sensing application by luminescent MOFs.

FeNi₃ alloy is adopted for catalyzing nitrate and carbon dioxide reduction to produce urea at ambient conditions. The catalyst delivers a larger urea yield rate and faradaic efficiency in comparison with the counterparts.

Viologen groups as a strong electron transfer mediator are inserted in Por(Co)-Vg-COF to improve the electronic conductivity and thus showed highly efficient electroreduction of CO₂ in neutral/acidic/alkaline electrolytes.

2D Al-TCPP MOF nanosheets were prepared via a simple solvothermal synthesis method without the need for any surfactants and were found to be an effective sonosensitizer for sonodynamic cancer therapy.

Tetraazaanthraquinodimethanes can exhibit various colours and emissions depending on their multiple conformations, such as not only folded and twisted forms but also intermediate structures, e.g., planar and twisted-folded forms, in pseudopolymorphs.

A universal exciplex platform was reported to construct multifunctional luminescent materials, including thermally-activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), persistent room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) and mechanoluminescence (ML).

X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy is a powerful tool for identifying the interactions of additives or surface treatments with components in lead halide perovskites.
