Reconstructing Quantum Dot Surfaces via Dual‐Functional Ligand Pairing Enables Efficient Shortwave Infrared Optoelectronics

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a ligand‐pairing strategy that reconstructs lead sulfide quantum dot surfaces for efficient short‐wave infrared optoelectronics. A low‐reactivity thiourea precursor combined with hydrobromic acid enables monodisperse and fully passivated quantum dots.

Models for the Calculation of Diffuse Radiation on Solar Collectors

IJEEC - INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING AND COMPUTING, 2020
For the design and exploitation of solar energy systems, information of both direct and diffuse component of solar radiation is necessary. However, the measurement data that are available are usually restricted to total horizontal irradiance. Therefore, many models have been developed to determine the diffuse component of the irradiance on solar ...
