Comparision between Ga- and N-polarity InGaN solar cells with gradient-In-composition intrinsic layers

Performances of Ga-and N-polarity solar cells(SCs) adopting gradient-In-composition intrinsic layer(IL) are compared.It is found the gradient ILs can greatly weaken the negative influence from the polarization effects for the Gapolarity case,and the highest conversion efficiency(η) of 2.18%can be obtained in the structure with a linear increase of In composition in the IL from bottom to top.This is mainly attributed to the adsorptions of more photons caused by the higher In composition in the IL closer to the p-GaN window layer.In contrast,for the N-polarity case,the SC structure with an InGaN IL adopting fixed In composition prevails over the ones adopting the gradient-In-composition IL,where the highest η of 9.28%can be obtained at x of 0.62.N-polarity SC structures are proven to have greater potential preparations in high-efficient InGaN SCs.     

周期荷载作用下煤岩声发射特征的颗粒流模拟

为研究周期荷载应力水平对煤样声发射特征的影响,采用PFC数值软件开展了3种不同应力水平的等幅周期荷载数值模拟试验,分析了周期荷载应力水平对煤样破坏循环次数、声发射计数及损伤演化特征的影响。研究结果表明:周期荷载作用下,煤样破坏过程中的声发射活动呈现初始、相对平静和活跃三阶段演化规律,且在煤样破坏前的周期荷载卸载阶段及低应力水平阶段几乎没有声发射活动;周期荷载上限应力水平的微小提高会加快煤样的破坏过程。提出了声发射比率的概念,当声发射比率大于1时,表明煤样即将发生破坏。声发射比率可作为预测现场工程煤体失稳的重要指标。
