使用分子量级前躯体制备CuInSe_2及其合金并应应用用于光伏发电(英文)

黄铜矿铜铟硒化合物CuInSe2及其与硫或嫁的合金CuIn(Se,S)2或CuInGa(Se,S)2,即所说的CIGS,已通过20%的实验室规模器件光电转换效率展示了其地面光伏应用的巨大潜力。为了减少初始资金成本,提高材料利用率,科研工作者们已经尝试了许多努力通过非真空制程沉积CIGS。这些制程包括电镀工艺,基于颗粒(浆或纳米颗粒)的制程和基于分子量级前趋体的制程。原则上,分子量级前趋体可以使组分元素达到充分混合,可以最大程度地实现组份在基板不同区域的均一分布。这对于一个复杂的涉及到五个主要元素的化合物系统尤为重要。从这个角度来看,分子前趋体的方法具有大面积均匀沉积铜铟镓硒的巨大潜力。这篇综述将着重讨论使用分子前趋体沉积铜铟镓硒制程的最新发展。     

Modified solid electrodes for stripping voltammetric determination of tin

The paper describes the determination of tin by ASV using modified thick film electrodes. Three different types of electrodes were developed: One modified with a mixture of Nafion and mercury(II)acetate, one modified with diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC) or pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (PDC) and mercury(II)acetate, and one modified with calomel. The analyte was accumulated on the electrode surface after special electrochemical pretreatment of the modified electrode. After recording the voltammogram the electrodes were electrochemically regenerated. By virtue of their lifetime and their measurement reproducibility, we preferred the DDC and PDC modified electrodes. They can be used for months without changing their chemical characteristics. The linear range for tin determination with these electrodes is between 1 and 100 μg/L; the detection limit was calculated as 0.9 μg/L. The electrodes were applied to the direct determination of tin in different canned fruit juices without special sample pretreatment.

Stripping voltammetry in environmental and food analysis

The review covers over 230 papers published mostly in the last 5 years. The goal of the review is to attract the attention of researchers and users to stripping voltammetry in particular, its application in environmental monitoring and analysis of foodstuffs. The sensors employed are impregnated graphite, carbon paste, thick film carbon/graphite and thin film metallic electrodes modified in-situ or beforehand. Hanging mercury drop electrodes and mercury coated glassy carbon electrodes are also mentioned. Strip and long-lived sensors for portable instruments and flow through systems are discussed as devices for future development and application of stripping voltammetry.     

Thick-film graphite electrodes in stripping voltammetry

Various types of modified thick-film graphite electrodes are reviewed. Two modification options are available: either in situ modified or beforehand. Electrodes modified in situ by various organic compounds were used for the determination of W, Mo, Cr, Ni and Mn by adsorptive stripping voltammetry. Insoluble inorganic salts, insoluble organic complexes or soluble compounds protected with Nafion were used for modification of the electrode surface beforehand. These pre-conditioned electrodes permit quantification of Pb, Cd, Cu, Zn, Sn, As and Hg ions. The detection limits of these elements were in the sub-μg/L range. The relative standard deviation did not exceed 10–15%. Measurements were made without deaeration of test solutions and normally without destroying small organic matter found in surface waters. A number of characteristics, such as the formation of well-shaped peaks and stable increments of peaks after standard additions, as well as elimination of the mechanical surface regeneration stage and metallic mercury or its soluble salts from the analytical procedure and a long shelf-life of the electrodes make them promising for electroanalysis and for application in portable field instruments.

Cardioprotective Activity of Selected Polyphenols Based on Epithelial and Aortic Cell Lines. A Review

Polyphenols have recently gained popularity among the general public as products and diets classified as healthy and containing naturally occurring phenols. Many polyphenolic extracts are available on the market as dietary supplements, functional foods, or cosmetics, taking advantage of clients’ desire to live a healthier and longer life. However, due to the difficulty of discovering the in vivo functions of polyphenols, most of the research focuses on in vitro studies. In this review, we focused on the cardioprotective activity of different polyphenols as possible candidates for use in cardiovascular disease therapy and for improving the quality of life of patients. Thus, the studies, which were mainly based on endothelial cells, aortic cells, and some in vivo studies, were analyzed. Based on the reviewed articles, polyphenols have a few points of action, including inhibition of acetylcholinesterase, decrease in reactive oxygen species production and endothelial tube formation, stimulation of acetylcholine-induced endothelium-derived mediator release, and others, which lead to their cardio- and/or vasoprotective effects on endothelial cells. The obtained results suggest positive effects of polyphenols, but more long-term in vivo studies demonstrating effects on mechanism of action, sensitivity, and specificity or efficacy are needed before legal health claims can be made.     

The Stability of Magnetic VorticesRID="*"ID="*"Research on this paper was supported by NSERC under grant N7901

We study the linearized stability of n-vortex (n∈ℤ) solutions of the magnetic Ginzburg–Landau (or Abelian Higgs) equations. We prove that the fundamental vortices (n = ± 1) are stable for all values of the coupling constant, λ, and we prove that the higher-degree vortices (|n|≥ 2) are stable for λ < 1, and unstable for λ > 1. This resolves a long-standing conjecture (see, eg, [JT]).

PARALLEL ADAPTIVE SIMULATION OF A PLUNGING LIQUID JET

This paper is concerned with three-dimensional numerical simulation of a plunging liquid jet. The transient processes of forming an air cavity around the jet, capturing an initially large air bubble, and the break-up of this large toroidal-shaped bubble into smaller bubbles were analyzed. A stabilized finite element method （FEM） was employed under parallel numerical simulations based on adaptive, unstructured grid and coupled with a level-set method to track the interface between air and liquid. These simulations show that the inertia of the liquid jet initially depresses the pool＇s surface, forming an annular air cavity which surrounds the liquid jet. A toroidal liquid eddy which is subse- quently formed in the liquid pool results in air cavity collapse, and in turn entrains air into the liquid pool from the unstable annular air gap region around the liquid jet.
