Advances in the characterization of nanowire photovoltaic devices

III-V nanowires (NWs) have a great potential for solar energy applications due to their diameter-dependent optical properties, which may enhance absorption of light. In addition, core-shell radial p-i-n structures, in which the direction of light absorptio ...

Quantifying and Modeling the Impact of Interconnection Failures on the Electrical Performance of Crystalline Silicon Photovoltaic Modules

Christophe Ballif, Antonin Faes, Jacques Levrat, Alessandro Francesco Aldo Virtuani, Matthieu Despeisse, Eleonora Annigoni

We present an electrical model developed with LT SPICE that simulates the performance of a string of cells with disconnections in the electrical circuit. In a previous contribution, we quantified experimentally how the module performance is affected when o ...

Resistive coupled VO2 oscillators for image recognition

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Igor Stolichnov, Kirsten Emilie Moselund, Siegfried Karg, Elisabetta Corti

Oscillator networks are known for their interesting collective behavior such as frequency locking, phase locking, and synchronization. Compared to other artificial neural network implementations, timing rather than amplitude information is used for computa ...

Galvanically Isolated Modular Converter

Alexandre François Christe

The ever increasing penetration of renewable energy systems in the distribution grids will inevitably require profound changes in the grid infrastructure. One emerging direction, the medium voltage dc (MVdc) grids, is the cornerstone of this work. They are ...

An original valveless artificial heart providing pulsatile flow tested in mock circulatory loops

François Avellan, Audrey Paulette Solange Maertens, Jonathan Emery

Purpose: We present the test bench results of a valveless total artificial heart that is potentially compatible with the pediatric population. Methods: The RollingHeart is a valveless volumetric pump generating pulsatile flow. It consists of a single spher ...

Perovskite solar cell - electrochemical double layer capacitor interplay

Michael Graetzel, Nikolaos Vlachopoulos, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Michael Saliba, Juan-Pablo Correa-Baena, Silver Hamill Turren Cruz

We demonstrate that by a proper design of a system comprising a perovskite solar cell (PSC) coupled to an electrochemical double-layer capacitor (EDLC), it is possible to simultaneously improve both the PSC and EDLC performance and outperform each single u ...

Interfacial Kinetics of Efficient Perovskite Solar Cells

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Michael Saliba, Pankaj Kumar Yadav, Daniel Prochowicz

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have immense potential for high power conversion efficiency with an ease of fabrication procedure. The fundamental understanding of interfacial kinetics in PSCs is crucial for further improving of their photovoltaic performanc ...

Implementation Guidelines for a Real-Time Fault Location System in Electrical Power Networks

Maher Kayal, François Krummenacher, François Pierre Gaugaz

This paper presents constraints involved in the microelectronic implementation of a transmission line model based on transconductor-capacitor (gm-C) topologies. The presented line model, based on the discretization of a transmission line into a finite numb ...

Equivalent Admittance Approach for the Scattering of Patch/Slot-Based Frequency Selective Surfaces

Juan Ramon Mosig, Maria Garcia Vigueras

The equivalent admittance of a 2-D array of printed metallic patches/apertures is obtained here by extending a precedent equivalent circuit approach reported by some of the authors. The goal of the present extension is to cover more complex situations like ...
