Perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells offer efficiencies beyond 30%, yet conventional architectures face trade‐offs between optical performance and current matching. Three‐terminal tandems employing silicon back‐contact bottom cells eliminate the current‐matching constraint while minimizing optical losses, offering superior energy yield under real ...

ABSTRACT While cross‐laminated timber (CLT) is increasingly utilized in lateral force‐resisting systems in mass timber construction, research has predominantly focused on platform‐type construction. Balloon‐type CLT shear wall systems offer distinct structural advantages, notably the elimination of cumulative perpendicular‐to‐grain compression and a ...

ABSTRACT Deliberate Practice (DP) is a model of behavioral skill acquisition structured by several key tasks. The past decade has shown a consistent growth in interest in this form of learning for psychotherapy skills, with promising research suggesting DP training is superior to traditional learning methods of psychotherapy. This paper presents a case
