Efficient design of perovskite solar cell using mixed halide and copper oxide

Solar cells based on perovskites have emerged as a transpiring technology in the field of photovoltaic. These cells exhibit high power conversion efficiency. The perovskite material is observed to have good absorption in the entire visible spectrum which can be well illustrated by the quantum efficiency curve. In this paper, theoretical analysis has been done through device simulation for designing solar cell based on mixed halide perovskite. Various parameters have efficacy on the solar cell efficiency such as defect density, layer thickness, doping concentration, band offsets, etc. The use of copper oxide as the hole transport material has been analyzed. The analysis divulges that due to its mobility of charge carriers, it can be used as an alternative to spiro-OMeTAD. With the help of simulations, reasonable materials have been employed for the optimal design of solar cell based on perovskite material. With the integration of copper oxide into the solar cell structure, the results obtained are competent enough. The simulations have shown that with the use of copper oxide as hole transport material with mixed halide perovskite as absorber, the power conversion efficiency has improved by 6%.The open circuit voltage has shown an increase of 0.09 V, short circuit current density has increased by 2.32 m A/cm~2, and improvement in fill factor is 8.75%.     

Ball Convergence Theorems for Chebyshev-Halley Method in $\mathbb{B}$-Space

A local convergence analysis of Chebyshev-Halley method having third order of convergence for approximating zero of non-linear operator $f(v)=0$ by using convex majorant function and their condition in $\mathbb{B}$-space (Banach space), is presented in this article. We give the error estimate to show the efficiency of our study. Besides, we established the relation between majorant function and Kantorovich or Smale-type result as special cases of our general theory.     

DOES WATER DISINFECTANT PLAY A SUPPORTIVE ROLE IN THE SPREAD OF INFECTIOUS DISEASE? A MATHEMATICAL STUDY

The waterborne diseases cause millions of deaths across the globe. It was a preconceived notion since years that ingestion of contaminated water is the only possible way for the spread of waterborne infectious diseases. But some recent studies have shown that waterborne disease can also spread as a result of human to human transmission. The use of disinfectants is a common practice to prevent a waterborne disease. We assume that the inclusion of the disinfectant, although helpful in prevention of disease, caused negative effect on individuals. In this paper, a nonlinear mathematical model has been proposed to analyze the negative effects caused by disinfectant of water on individuals. Our study shows that if the mixing of disinfectant has not been performed in a controlled manner, then it results in an increase in human to human transmission of disease. The equilibrium and stability analysis have been performed to study the nature of the model system. An extensive numerical experiment has been performed to support the analytical findings.     

Surface wave transference in a piezoelectric cylinder coated with reinforced material

The present study deals with the propagation of a polarized shear horizontal(SH)wave in a pre-stressed piezoelectric cylinder circumscribed by a self-reinforced cylinder.The interface of the two media is assumed mechanically imperfect.For obtaining the dispersion relation,the mathematical formulation has been developed and solved by an analytical treatment.The effects of various parameters,i.e.,the thickness ratio,the imperfect interface,the initial stress,the reinforcement,and the piezoelectric and dielectric constants,on the dispersion curve are observed prominently.The dispersion curves for different modes have been also plotted.The consequences of the study may be used for achieving optimum efficiency of acoustic wave devices.

Spectroscopic investigation of light strange S=-1 Λ and Σ and S=-2 Ξ baryons

The present study is dedicated to light-strange Δ with strangeness S=-1 and isospin I=0,E with S=-1 and I=1,and Ξ baryon with S=-2 and I=1/2. In this study,the hypercentral constituent quark model with linear confining potential has been employed along with a first order correction term to obtain the resonance masses up to approximately 4 GeV.The calculated states include 1 S-5 S,1 P-4 P,1 D-3 D,1 F-2 F,and 1 G(in a few cases) along with all possible spin-parity assignments.Regge trajectories have been explored for the linearity of the calculated masseJ for(n,M2) and(J,M2).Magnetic moments have been intensively Ltudied for ground Utate spin 1/2 and 3/2, in addition to the configuration mixing of the first negative parity state for Ξ.Lastly,the transition magnetic moments and radiative decay widths have been presented.     

Affine and projective lines over one-dimensional semilocal domains

We characterize those partially ordered sets that can occur as the spectra of polynomial rings over one-dimensional semilocal (Noetherian) domains. We also determine the posets that can occur as projective lines over one-dimensional semilocal domains.

     

The phospholipid membrane compositions of bacterial cells,cancer cell lines and biological samples from cancer patients

While cancer now impacts the health and well-being of more of the human population than ever before, the exponential rise in antimicrobial resistant (AMR) bacterial infections means AMR is predicted to become one of the greatest future threats to human health. It is therefore vital that novel therapeutic strategies are developed that can be used in the treatment of both cancer and AMR infections. Whether the target of a therapeutic agent be inside the cell or in the cell membrane, it must either interact with or cross this phospholipid barrier to elicit the desired cellular effect. Here we summarise findings from published research into the phospholipid membrane composition of bacterial and cancer cell lines and biological samples from cancer patients. These data not only highlight key differences in the membrane composition of these biological samples, but also the methods used to elucidate and report the results of this analogous research between the microbial and cancer fields.

This review acts as a repository and comparison of cell membrane phospholipid composition data collected from microbial and cancer fields.     

一类具有非线性发生率的无线传感网络蠕虫传播模型的延迟动力学行为

研究了一类具有不同发生率的无线传感网络蠕虫传播模型的延迟动力学行为。由于在监测节点隔离不稳定节点需要消耗一定的时间,在模型中考虑了处理时滞。通过分析相应特征方程根的分布情况,得到了平衡点存在性、模型局部稳定性和Hopf分岔存在的充分性条件。通过构造合适的李雅普诺夫函数,证明了蠕虫病毒平衡点的全局稳定性。数值仿真实验验证了理论分析结果的正确性。仿真结果表明,当处理时滞的值越过关键值时,网络中的蠕虫传播将失去控制,发现无线传感网络的覆盖范围是控制蠕虫传播和保证无线传感网络安全最为重要的因素之一。并通过仿真发现消除模型混沌状态的一些关键参数,其中非线性发生率βSII+1是控制蠕虫病毒传播、保证无线传感网络安全的最佳选择。
