Nanostructured solar cell based on solution processed Cu2ZnSnS4 nanoparticles and vertically aligned ZnO nanorod array

Cu₂ZnSnS₄ (CZTS) has attracted intensive interest for application in photovoltaic technology due to its excellent semiconductor properties. We report a nanostructured CZTS solar cell which was fabricated by infiltrating of CZTS nanoparticles into CdS coated ZnO nanorod arrays. The well aligned ZnO nanorods facilitate the efficient infiltration of CZTS nanoparticles. A hole transport layer was deposited to facilitate the transport of holes. The nanostructured CZTS solar cell demonstrated a remarkably high short‐circuit current density (11.0 mA/cm²). As a result, a power conversion efficiency of 2.8% was obtained.

A Fused‐Ring Acceptor Unit in D–A Copolymers Benefits Photovoltaic Performance

Pentacyclic lactam acceptor unit TPTI invented by our group is proved to be a good building block for efficient D‐A copolymers used in organic solar cells. Here, two D‐A copolymers PBTTPTI and PTTTPTI are developed by copolymerizing TPTI with 2,2′‐bithiophene (BT) or thieno[3,2‐b]thiophene (TT). PBTTPTI and PTTTPTI exhibit good solubility and strong interchain π–π interaction even in dilute solution. They possess deep HOMO levels (ca. ‐5.3 eV), partial crystallinity, and good hole mobilities. Blending with PC₇₁BM, PBTTPTI and PTTTPTI give decent power conversion efficiencies (PCE) up to 6.83% and 5.86%, with outstanding fill factors (FF) of 74.3% and 71.3%, respectively.

     

Enhanced x-ray emissions from low-density high-Z mixture plasmas generated with intense nanosecond laser

Enhancement of x-ray emissions from laser-produced plasmas is imperative for various applications. Low-density Au–Gd mixture was proposed to enhance the x-ray emissions. X-ray emissions were simulated for the laser-irradiated gold and Au–Gd mixtures with different initial densities. It was shown that 1.34 times conversion efficiency has been achieved for the 0.05 g/cm³$0.05\text{g}/{\text{cm}}^3$ Au–Gd (6/4)$(6/4)$ mixture comparing with the 10 g/cm³$10\text{g}/{\text{cm}}^3$ gold. The enhancement is attributed to higher Rosseland mean opacities of the mixture and reduction of the ion kinetic energy caused by the lower initial density.     

Robust optimization analysis for multiple attribute decision making problems with imprecise information

This paper considers ranking decision alternatives under multiple attributes with imprecise information on both attribute weights and alternative ratings. It is demonstrated that regret results from the decision maker??s inadequate knowledge about the true scenario to occur. Potential optimality analysis is a traditional method to evaluate alternatives with imprecise information. The essence of this approach is to identify any alternative that outperforms the others in its best-case scenario. Our analysis shows that potential optimality analysis is optimistic in nature and may lead to a significant loss if an unfavorable scenario occurs. We suggest a robust optimization analysis approach that ranks alternatives in terms of their worst-case absolute or relative regret. A robust optimal alternative performs reasonably well in all scenarios and is shown to be desirable for a risk-concerned decision maker. Linear programming models are developed to check robust optimality.

弱谐波情况下透射光栅衍射效率标定方法

同步辐射光源中的高次谐波会使透射光栅衍射效率标定精度变差。为了校正光源中的高次谐波对透射光栅衍射效率标定的影响,提出了一种光源存在弱谐波情况下的透射光栅衍射效率标定方法,通过使用谐波X射线的衍射效率修正基波衍射效率标定中谐波的影响,从而得到更为准确的透射光栅衍射效率。使用该标定方法在北京同步辐射光源上开展了透射光栅相对衍射效率标定工作。实验结果表明：在100~800 eV存在高次谐波能段,修正后透射光栅一级与零级的相对衍射效率与理论模拟结果吻合较好,修正后光栅二级与一级的相对衍射效率更接近理论模拟结果,但与理论模拟结果仍有较大偏差,该偏差主要来源光栅较弱的二级衍射。
