Abstract
The overexpression of interleukin-17A (IL-17A) is closely associated with the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases and cancer, rendering precise identification of IL-17A level critical for disease diagnosis and prognosis monitoring. In this study, CsPbBr3 nanoclusters (NCs) were embedded in C16H14Br2O6Pb2 organometallic compound (Pb-MA MOC) via a hot injection approach. Through this way, the issue of CsPbBr3 NCs susceptible to decomposition in water was solved, and the photocurrent intensity that is generated by CsPbBr3 was significantly enhanced. A highly sensitive photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor for detecting IL-17A in human serum was developed using CsPbBr3/Pb-MA as the photoactive material. The electrode was initially modified with CsPbBr3/Pb-MA. Then, antibody-modified Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNs) with target analyte IL-17A captured, and IL-17A antibody-modified Au@CuNi diatomic catalyst (DAC) formed sandwich immune complex structure on the electrode. The existence of CuNi DAC led to a substantial reduction in photoelectric signal intensity due to oxidation of ascorbic acid in the supporting electrolyte. The photocurrent intensity exhibited linear correlation with IL-17A concentration within the range 15-750 pg/mL, and achieving an impressive detection limit of 1 pg/mL. Moreover, the sensor was successfully applied to the determination of IL-17A in human serum, suggesting its potential clinical applications.

Abstract
Lead halide perovskite materials have been emerging as promising candidates for high-performance optoelectronic devices. Significant efforts have sought to realize monocrystalline perovskite films on a large scale. Here, we epitaxially grow monocrystalline methylammonium lead tribromide (MAPbBr3) films on lattice-matched gallium arsenide (GaAs) substrates on a centimeter scale. In particular, a solution-processed lead(II) sulfide (PbS) layer provides a lattice-matched and chemical protective interface for the solid-gas reaction to form MAPbBr3 films on GaAs. Structure characterizations identify the crystal orientations in the trilayer MAPbBr3/PbS/GaAs epistructure and confirm the monocrystalline nature of MAPbBr3 on PbS/GaAs. The dynamic evolution of surface morphologies during the growth indicates a two-step epitaxial process. These fundamental understandings and practical growth techniques offer a viable guideline to approach high-quality perovskite films for previously inaccessible applications.

Abstract
Halide perovskites are promising candidates for soft X-ray detection (<80 keV) owing to their high X-ray absorption coefficient, resistivity, and mobility lifetime product. However, the lack of large high-quality single crystals (SCs) renders it challenging to manufacture robust hard X-ray imaging systems (>100 keV) with a low detection limit and stable dark current. Herein, high-quality inch-size two-dimensional (2D) Cs3Bi2Br9 (CBB) single crystals are grown from a melt via the Bridgman method. The crystal quality is enhanced by eliminating inclusions of CsBr-rich phases and restraining the trap-state density, leading to an enhanced resistivity of 1.41 × 1012 Ω cm and a mobility lifetime product of 8.32 × 10-4 cm2 V-1. The Au/CBB/Au single-crystal device exhibits a high sensitivity of 1705 μC Gyair-1 cm-2 in all-inorganic bismuth-based perovskites and an ultralow detection limit of 0.58 nGyair s-1 in all of the bismuth-based perovskites for 120 keV hard X-ray detection. The CBB detector exhibits high work stability with an ultralow dark current drift of 2.8 × 10-10 nA cm-1 s-1 V-1 and long-term air environment reliability under a high electric field of 10 000 V cm-1 owing to the ultrahigh ionic activation energy of the 2D structure. The proposed robust imaging system based on CBB SC is a promising tool for X-ray medical imaging and diagnostics.

Abstract
Lead halide perovskite solar cells have been gaining more and more interest. In only a decade, huge research efforts from interdisciplinary communities enabled enormous scientific advances that rapidly led to energy conversion efficiency near that of record silicon solar cells, at an unprecedented pace. However, while for most materials the best solar cells were achieved with single crystals (SC), for perovskite the best cells have been so far achieved with polycrystalline (PC) thin films, despite the optoelectronic properties of perovskite SC are undoubtedly superior. Here, by taking as example monocrystalline methylammonium lead halide, the authors elaborate the literature from material synthesis and characterization to device fabrication and testing, to provide with plausible explanations for the relatively low efficiency, despite the superior optoelectronics performance. In particular, the authors focus on how solar cell performance is affected by anisotropy, crystal orientation, surface termination, interfaces, and device architecture. It is argued that, to unleash the full potential of monocrystalline perovskite, a holistic approach is needed in the design of next-generation device architecture. This would unquestionably lead to power conversion efficiency higher than those of PC perovskites and silicon solar cells, with tremendous impact on the swift deployment of renewable energy on a large scale.
