	abstract = {<p>Perovskites based on organometal lead halides have attracted great deal of scientific attention recently in the context of solar cells and optoelectronic devices due to their unique and tunable electronic and optical properties. Herein, we show that the use of electrospray technique in conjunction with the antisolventsolvent extraction leads to novel low-dimensional quantum structures (especially 2-D nanosheets) of CH3NH3PbI3- and CH3NH3PbBr3-based layered perovskites with unusual luminescence properties. We also show that the optical bandgaps and emission characteristics of these colloidal nanomaterials can be tuned over a broad range of visible spectral region by compositional tailoring of mixed-halide (I- and Br-based) perovskites.</p>},

	abstract = {<p>A combination of high carrier density, high surface area, solution processability, and low cost is desired in a material for electrocatalytic applications, including H-2 evolution and a counter electrode of a solar cell. Also, plasmonic-based applications in biological systems can be derived from such material. In this regard, a colloidal nanocomposite of TiN and N-doped few-layer graphene (TiN NFG) is synthesized from molecular precursors. TiN nano crystals (NCs) provide free electrons for electrical conductivity and plasmonics, whereas NFG is responsible for charge transport, high surface area, and colloidal stability. Colloidal TiN NFG nano composites exhibit a localized surface plasmon resonance band at around 700 nm. Coatings of the nanocomposite form a counter electrode for efficient (8.9\%) dye-sensitized solar cells. Furthermore, the nanocomposite acts as an efficient electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction, exhibiting an overpotential similar to 161 mV at a current density of 10 mA/cm(2).</p>},
