An experimental study of a hemi-spherical solar collector under Egyptian climate
Traditional flat plate collectors have shown, under many investigations, low system operating efficiency, which prompted the idea of designing new solar collectors operating with higher efficiency.

Metal-Free Polymer-Based Current Collector for High Energy Density Lithium-Metal Batteries. [PDF]
The energy density of lithium-metal batteries (LMBs) relies substantially on the thickness of the lithium-metal anode. However, a bare, thin lithium foil electrode is vulnerable to fragmentation due to the inhomogeneity of the lithium stripping/plating ...

EGaIn coated 3D-Cu foam as a self-healing current collector for lithium ion batteries
Traditional lithium-ion batteries are prone to cracks and perforations in extreme environments, which could cause electrochemical performance degradation or even safety problems.

Flexible and Lightweight Lithium-Ion Batteries Based on Cellulose Nanofibrils and Carbon Fibers
Flexible, low-weight electrodes with integrated current collectors based on chopped polyacrylonitrile carbon fibers (CF) were produced using an easy, aqueous fabrication process, where only 4 wt% of TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) were used as

Contact interaction “brush – collector” and working efficiency of locomotive traction electric motor
The working efficiency of locomotive traction electric motors of direct current is largely determined by the reliability of the collector-brush assembly. The paper presents the results of simulation of the contact interaction “brush-collector” in the

Analytical Base-Collector Heterojunction Capacitance Model Including Collector Current Effects
The base‐collector heterojunction space‐charge‐region capacitance of double heterojunction bipolar transistors is treated. This capacitance cannot be modeled as the conventional heterojunction depletion capacitance because it is heavily influenced by the

Sulfur cathodes with carbon current collector for Li-S cells
S.A996-A1002Li-S cells have a low voltage (about 2.1 V), but their potentially high energy density (200-500 Wh/kg) makes them a promising system for next generation batteries. To obtain high energy densities on cell level, the weight fraction and load of

Current-dependent collector resistance of the bipolar transistor in quasi-saturation
The current-dependent collector resistance of the bipolar transistor in quasi-saturation has been modelled. The analytical collector resistance model is derived from device physics. The MEDICI simulation is employed to justify the assumptions used in the
