The changing relationships between cities and their waters over the centuries lead today – after a clear sidelining of rivers in the city – to question their potential for building new interactions. Current densification objectives of the existing built fa ...
The deexcitation of a synchronous machine has been used for the protection of the power supply based on a diode rectifier in marine dc power distribution networks. The fault current from the generator can be eliminated with the protection method utilizing ...
Although spiro-MeOTAD 1 is a superior hole-transporting material (HTM) commonly employed in perovskite solar cells (PSC), its high cost is one of the major issues holding back commercialization, which has not been resolved to-date. In this article we intro ...
Studying nanomaterial piezoelectricity and triboelectricity is attractive for energy and sensing applications. However, quantitative characterisation of electromechanical effects in nanomaterials is challenging due to practical limitations and possible com ...
The synthesis and characterization of three novel HTMs with different highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy levels and their performances in MAPbI(3)-based devices in comparison with Spiro-OMeTAD is reported. Without systematic optimization, the ...
