Transport Resistance Dominates the Fill Factor Losses in Record Organic Solar Cells
Organic photovoltaics are a promising solar cell technology, but even the record devices with 20% efficiency have significant fill factor losses due to low active layer conductivities. In this Perspective, the authors describe the origin of these losses, discuss experimental methods for their quantification, and explain how to minimize them to optimize

The viscoelastic behavior of a composite in a thermal environment [PDF]
A proposed method for the accelerated predictions of modulus and life times for time dependent polymer matrix composite laminates is presented. The method, based on the time temperature superposition principle and lamination theory, is described in ...

Layer‐by‐layer processed pseudo‐bilayer heterojunctions offer flexible processing strategies, optimized morphology, enhanced efficiency and stability, and scaling potential for organic solar cells. Abstract Recent progress in organic (semiconductor) solar cells (OSCs) has led to power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) reaching 20%, with predictions that ...

Rate and time dependent behavior of structural adhesives [PDF]
Studies on two adhesives (Metlbond 1113 and 1113-2) identified as having applications in the bonding of composite materials are presented. Constitutive equations capable of describing changes in material behavior with strain rate are derived from various

Nonlinear theory of quantum Brownian motion
A nonlinear theory of quantum Brownian motion in classical environment is developed based on a thermodynamically enhanced nonlinear Schrodinger equation. The latter is transformed via the Madelung transformation into a nonlinear quantum Smoluchowski-like

Stochastic Hydrodynamic Velocity Field and the Representation of Langevin Equations
A lumped method is proposed to account for both mean‐field hydrodynamics and stochastic fluctuations within the kinematic equations of motion, providing a regularized formulation of the overdamped approximation. The concept of stochastic realizability in broad sense is introduced based on the spectral properties of the Fredholm operator associated with
