Ultra-Wideband and Wide-Angle Perfect Solar Energy Absorber Based on Titanium and Silicon Dioxide Colloidal Nanoarray Structure

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2021
In this paper, we designed an ultra-wideband solar energy absorber and approved it numerically by the finite-difference time-domain simulation. The designed solar energy absorber can achieve a high absorption of more than 90% of light in a continuous 3 ...

Strong Disorder Fixed Point in Absorbing-State Phase Transitions [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2003
The effect of quenched disorder on non-equilibrium phase transitions in the directed percolation universality class is studied by a strong disorder renormalization group approach and by density matrix renormalization group calculations. We show that for sufficiently strong disorder the critical behaviour is controlled by a strong disorder fixed point ...

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Effect of a Local Absorber in Absorber Theory

open access: yes, 1973
IN a recent experiment Partridge1 found a null result to 1 part in 108 for the effect of a local absorber on the power emitted by a source. This result is interpreted in the framework of absorber theory as setting some constraints on the absorptive ...

L‐aspartate oxidase provides new insights into fumarate reduction in anaerobic darkness in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

Maximum Energy Capturing Approach for Heaving Wave Energy Converters Using an Estimator-Based Finite Control Set Model Predictive Control

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
The control problem in wave energy continues to remain an open question. This is mainly attributed to the difficulties associated with developing effective, yet economically viable, wave energy-harnessing control strategies, such as resource irregularity,

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Electronic and structural characterisation of Cu3BiS3 thin films for the absorber layer of sustainable photovoltaics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Thin films of p-type Cu3BiS3 with an orthorhombic wittichenite structure, a semiconductor with high potential for thin film solar cell absorber layers, were synthesised by thermal annealing of Cu and Bi precursors, magnetron sputtered on Mo/glass ...

Energy absorption from parks of point‐absorbing wave energy converters in the Swedish exclusive economic zone

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2020
In a future energy system based on renewable energy sources, wave energy will most likely play a role due to its high energy potential and low intermittency.
