Well Intended Contact Failures on Interdigitated Back Contact Solar Cells

open access: yesSiliconPV Conference Proceedings
The interconnection of the cells that make up a solar panel is a simple step, but it is not unimportant. The panels are made up of cells in series, so that a poorly connected cell can spoil the good performance of the entire panel.

Patient comfort following thirty minutes of lens wear: piggy-back versus conventional rigid-lens wear

open access: yesAfrican Vision and Eye Health, 2014
Discomfort when wearing contact lenses, especially rigid contact lenses, is a common complaint amongst neophyte as well as experienced contact lens wearers. Wearing a piggy-back system of contact lenses has been shown to improve comfort and wearing time,

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Simulation Results: Optimization of Contact Ratio for Interdigitated Back-Contact Solar Cells

open access: yesInternational Journal of Photoenergy, 2017
In the fabrication of interdigitated back contact (IBC) solar cells, it is very important to choose the right size of contact to achieve the maximum efficiency.

A Search for New Back Contacts for CdTe Solar Cells

open access: yesScience Advances, 2022
There is widespread interest in reaching the practical efficiency of cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin-film solar cells, which suffer from significant open-circuit voltage loss due to high surface recombination velocity and Schottky barrier at the back contact.

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Understanding the Role of Organic Hole Transport Layers on Pinhole Blocking and Performance Improvement in Sb2Se3 Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces
Sb2Se3 is an emerging semiconductor which has shown promise for low‐cost photovoltaic applications. After successive record‐efficiencies using a range of device structures, spiro‐OMeTAD has emerged as the default hole transport material (HTM), however ...

Role of surface microstructure of Mo back contact on alkali atom diffusion and Ga grading in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 thin film solar cells

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2019
While the major function of molybdenum (Mo) back contact on soda‐lime glass (SLG) substrate in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells is to provide good adhesion and good conductivity, its role as the transportation channel for alkali elements from SLG ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Optimizing CdS/Sb2S3 solar cells for enhanced performance: reaching 26.83% efficiency

open access: yesMaterials Research Express
This study, developed a CdS/Sb _2 S _3 -based solar cell structure using Sb _2 S _3 as the absorber material and CdS as the window layer. The performance of the ITO/CdS/Sb _2 S _3 /Pt heterostructure was numerically analyzed using SCAPS-1D software.
