Daylighting System Based on Novel Design of Linear Fresnel lens

open access: yesBuildings, 2017
In this paper, we present a design and optical simulation of a daylighting system using a novel design of linear Fresnel lens, which is constructed based on the conservation of optical path length and edge ray theorem. The linear Fresnel lens can achieve

Meso‐Crowned Porphyrin as a Dual Cavity Hybrid Macrocycle for Improving the Efficiency and Stability of Perovskite Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a dual‐functional porphyrin‐based passivation molecule, [12]‐C‐4POR, capable of simultaneously coordinating Pb2+ and Li+ ions through its porphyrin core and crown ether moiety, respectively. This molecule effectively reduces trap‐state density, suppresses non‐radiative recombination, and mitigates Li+ migration at the perovskite/
