216. Y. Zhou, D. Benetti, Z. Fan, H. Zhao,* D. Ma, A. Govorov, A. Vomiero, F. Rosei*, Near Infrared, Highly Efficient Luminescent Solar Concentrators, Adv. En. Mater. 6, 1501913 (2016). (Frontispiece Cover) [[37 citations] This article reports the synthesis of near infrared (NIR) core/shell PbS/CdS Quantum Dots (QDs) via a cation exchange approach. The QDs exhibit high quantum yield and excellent chemical/photostability with large Stokes shift (compared to bare QDs). By integrating the QDs into Luminescent Solar Concentrators (LSCs), we obtain an optical efficiency of 6.1% for geometric factor G=10, a record in planar LSCs based on NIR QDs.\\

204. H. Zhao, A. Vomiero, F. Rosei*, Ultrasensitive, Biocompatible, Self-Calibrating, Multi-Parametric Temperature Sensors, Small 11, 5741–5746 (2015). (Frontispiece Cover) [[20 citations] This paper reports the synthesis of core/thick shell PbS/CdS QDs with double emission, in which the ratio of the emission peaks varies linearly with temperature in a wide range (150–273 K). The system therefore acts as multiparametric temperature sensor with high sensitivity and record performance.\\

155. S. Li, J. Zhang, M.G. Kibria, Z. Mi, M. Chaker, D. Ma, R. Nechache, F. Rosei*, Remarkably Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity of Laser Ablated Au Nanoparticles Decorated BiFeO3 Nanowires under Visible-light, Chem. Comm. 49, 5856–5858 (2013).  [[91 citations] This paper reports a simple solution synthesis of a photoanode nanocomposite made of BiFeO3 (BFO) nanowires decorated with Au nanocrystals. The Au nanocrystals enhance O2 evolution by a factor of 30 compared to bare BFO nanowires.\\

148. L. Dinca, C. Fu, J.M. Macleod, J. Lipton-Duffin, J. Brusso, C. Szakacs, D. Ma, D.F. Perepichka, F. Rosei*, Unprecedented Transformation of Tetrathienoanthracene into Pentacene on Ni(111), ACS Nano 7, 1652–1657 (2013). This paper reports the synthesis of pentacene from tetrathienoanthracene precursors on Ni(111). The reaction, imaged with submolecular resolution by scanning tunneling microscopy, consists of sulfur abstraction and cyclization. It has no known literature analogue.\\
