Simple (YGa)2O3/F‐SnO2 Heterojunction‐Based Solar‐Blind Ultraviolet Photodetector Operable in Two Modes With Superb Performance

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Yttrium doping was proposed to expand the bandgap and inhibit the oxygen vacancies of Ga2O3 to form (YGa)2O3 alloy with reduced background carriers and trap centers. Beneficially, simple vertical‐structured (YGa)2O3/FTO heterojunction photodetectors exhibit superb performance with particularly low dark current and fast photoresponse in both self‐driven

Orchestration of Climate Action in Municipalities: A Collective Capacity Approach

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Municipalities are increasingly positioned as key actors in enabling local climate action, yet their ability to mobilise societal actors remains insufficiently understood. This study examines how municipal officials in six Finnish municipalities from different local contexts understand and operationalise collective capacity for climate action,

Developer-Planner Interaction in Transportation and Land Use Sustainability, MTI Report 01-21 [PDF]

, 2002
This study argues that significant unmet demand exists for alternatives to conventional auto-oriented development; and further that planning interventions that restrict densities and land use mixing in developed areas are a major reason that this demand ...

Hybrid Osprey‐Salp Swarm Optimization Algorithm for Single and Multiobjective Optimal Power Flow in Smart Grids With Renewable Energy Integration

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
The proposed hybrid osprey‐salp swarm optimization algorithm addresses optimal power flow (OPF) problems in smart grids incorporating solar, hydro, and thermal generators. The algorithm is validated on Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers 30‐, 57‐, and 118‐bus test systems across five single and multiobjective OPF scenarios.
