Passivation of InP solar cells using large area hexagonal-BN layers

open access: yesnpj 2D Materials and Applications, 2021
Surface passivation is crucial for many high-performance solid-state devices, especially solar cells. It has been proposed that 2D hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) films can provide near-ideal passivation due to their wide bandgap, lack of dangling bonds ...

Passive smoking [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 1982
Before 1980 the argument that passive smoking was a serious health hazard was rather tenuous. It was claimed that it produced allergic reactions, impaired driving ability, reduced exercise tolerance in patients with cardiorespiratory disease and increased the risk of bronchitis and pneumonia in first-year children.

Krasovskii’s Passivity

open access: yesIFAC-PapersOnLine, 2019
In this paper we introduce a new notion of passivity which we call Krasovskii's passivity and provide a sufficient condition for a system to be Krasovskii's passive. Based on this condition, we investigate classes of port-Hamiltonian and gradient systems which are Krasovskii's passive.

Electrorefining of copper and anode passivation

open access: yesJournal of MMIJ, 2020
In the process of electrorefining of copper, application of higher current density increases the tendency of anode passivation. The passivation disrupts the sound operation of the electrorefining process, reducing the current efficiency and the quality ...

On-site weld quality assessment and qualification for stainless steels tanks

open access: yesEclética Química, 2022
Stainless steel tanks are frequently degraded by localized corrosion in bioprocess industries. A case study of 2101 duplex stainless steel tank allowed to apply a portable electrochemical microcell system (PassivityScan) for on-site weld inspection and ...

Passive investors, not passive owners

open access: yesJournal of Financial Economics, 2014
Passive institutional investors are an increasingly important component of U.S. stock ownership. To examine whether and by which mechanisms passive investors influence firms' governance, we exploit variation in ownership by passive mutual funds associated with stock assignments to the Russell 1000 and 2000 indexes.

Corrosion behavior of VCrFeCoNi medium-entropy alloy in chloride solution

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
The present work investigates the corrosion properties and passivation layer of VCrFeCoNi medium-entropy alloy (V-MEA). The V-MEA exhibits the corrosion current density of ∼0.101 μA and corrosion potential of ∼ -0.336 V with a broad passivation region of

Effect of Corrosion Inhibitors on Chromate-free Passivation of Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel

open access: yesMedžiagotyra, 2018
Commercially available passivation methods for white-rust protection of Hot-Dip Galvanized steel have been applied for chromate passivation. However, hexavalent chromium (Cr-VI) is highly toxic and carcinogenic.

Preconditioning of Bioactive Glasses before Introduction to Static Cell Culture: What Is Really Necessary?

open access: yesMethods and Protocols, 2020
Due to their high bioreactivity, the in-vitro analysis of bioactive glasses (BGs) can be challenging when it comes to maintaining a physiological pH.
