Potential Application of 2D Haeckelite MoS2 as an Anode Material for Mg Ion Batteries.

The design and preparation of anode materials with structural stability, fast ion transmission, and low open-circuit voltage are critical to the development of magnesium ion batteries (MIBs). The feasibility of the unique phase Haeckelite MoS2 (Hae-MoS2) monolayer with Haeckelite structure as a potential anode material for MIBs was investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The Hae-MoS2 monolayer exhibits excellent structural stability and semimetallic characteristics with a Dirac cone located at the Gamma point of band structure. Mg ion is easily adsorbed on the Hae-MoS2 monolayer surface with an adsorption energy of -2.06 eV and can diffuse rapidly with a low diffusion energy barrier (0.3 eV), indicating excellent charge and discharge rates. Most importantly, the Hae-MoS2 monolayer exhibits a suitable open-circuit voltage, which falls within the desired voltage range and ensures the safety of battery performance. These exceptional properties indicate that the Hae-MoS2 monolayer can be proposed as a candidate for anode material for MIBs.

Performance optimization of a novel perovskite solar cell with power conversion efficiency exceeding 37% based on methylammonium tin iodide

The development of highly efficient lead-free solar cells is essential for sustainable energy production in the face of depleting fossil fuel resources and the negative effects of climate change. Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) containing lead pose considerable environmental and public health hazards, in addition to thermal stability and longevity challenges. Here, a novel lead-free solar cell design of the configuration, ITO/PC61BM/CH3NH3SnI3/PEDOT:PSS/Mo, is investigated for improved light harvesting capabilities, enhanced device performance, and better operational efficiency under various temperature conditions. The optimal thickness of the light-absorbing layer, CH3NH3SnI3, was found to be 1000 nm for maximum quantum efficiency (QE). Further, the temperature tolerance of the solar cell was evaluated using Mott-Schottky (MS) capacitance analysis and showed that the model cell retains about 95% of its power at 400 K, demonstrating excellent thermal stability and robust performance. The solar cell also shows promising electrical output parameters, including a short-circuit current density (Jsc) of 34.84 mA/cm², open-circuit voltage (Voc) of 1.5226 V, Fill factor (FF) of 71.04%, and an impressive power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 37.66% at 300 K. The effect of buffer layers such as CdS, ZnS, ZnSe, and V2O5 on the electrical outcomes of the model cell structure has been critically examined. Additionally, parasitic resistances and doping characteristics on the operational performance of the cell have been explored in detail. This work therefore, provides remarkable insights in the field of solar energy harvesting, offering potential sustainable energy generation solutions, supporting de-carbonization of the environment and climate change mitigation efforts towards an energy sustainable future.

Frenkel and Charge-Transfer Excitonic Couplings Strengthened by Thiophene-Type Solvent Enables Binary Organic Solar Cells with 19.8 % Efficiency.

Overcoming the trade-off between short-circuited current (Jsc) and open-circuited voltage (Voc) is important to achieving high-efficiency organic solar cells (OSCs). Previous works modulated the energy gap between Frenkel local exciton (LE) and charge-transfer (CT) exciton, which served as the driving force of exciton splitting. Differently, our current work focuses on the modulation of LE-CT excitonic coupling (tLE-CT) via a simple but effective strategy that the 2-chlorothiophene (2Cl-Th) solvent utilizes in the treatment of OSC active-layer films. The results of our experimental measurements and theoretical simulations demonstrated that 2Cl-Th solvent initiates tighter intermolecular interactions with non-fullerene acceptor in comparison with that of traditional chlorobenzene solvent, thus suppressing the acceptor's over-aggregation and retarding the acceptor crystallization with reduced trap. Critically, the resulting shorter distances between donor and acceptor molecules in the 2Cl-Th treated blend efficiently strengthen tLE-CT, which not only promotes exciton splitting but also reduces non-radiative recombination. The champion efficiencies of 19.8 % (small-area) with superior operational reliability (T80: 586 hours) and 17.0 % (large-area) were yielded in 2Cl-Th treated cells. This work provided a new insight into modulating the exciton dynamics to overcome the trade-off between Jsc and Voc, which can productively promote the development of the OSC field.

Additive engineering for efficient wide-bandgap perovskite solar cells with low open-circuit voltage losses

High-performance wide-bandgap (WBG) perovskite solar cells are used as top cells in perovskite/silicon or perovskite/perovskite tandem solar cells, which possess the potential to overcome the Shockley-Queisser limitation of single-junction perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, WBG perovskites still suffer from severe nonradiative recombination and large open-circuit voltage (Voc) losses, which restrict the improvement of PSC performance. Herein, we introduce 3,3′-diethyl-oxacarbo-cyanine iodide (DiOC2(3)) and multifunctional groups (C=N, C=C, C-O-C, C-N) into perovskite precursor solutions to simultaneously passivate deep level defects and reduce recombination centers. The multifunctional groups in DiOC2(3) coordinate with free Pb2+ at symmetric sites, passivating Pb vacancy defects, effectively suppressing nonradiative recombination, and maintaining considerable stability. The results reveal that the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the 1.68 eV WBG perovskite solar cell with an inverted structure increases from 18.51% to 21.50%, and the Voc loss is only 0.487 V. The unpackaged device maintains 95% of its initial PCE after 500 h, in an N2 environment at 25°C.

Next-Generation MPPT: neural network-driven optimization for superior solar performance

This paper presents a novel smart Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) method based on a Neural Network Controller (NNC) to enhance solar power efficiency and mitigate significant oscillations. Traditional MPPT techniques, including perturbation and observation, fixed and variable incremental conductance methods, and fractional open circuit voltage, often suffer from slow response to sudden environmental changes (temperature and irradiation), inaccurate tracking, lack of prediction abilities, and complex structures. These drawbacks lead to power loss, reduced effectiveness of photovoltaic (PV) systems and raised broadband oscillations. To address these issues, we propose an intelligent MPPT strategy utilizing NNC. The NNC inputs are the error and derived error (E&ΔE) between the reference and actual inputs, with the duty cycle (D) as the target output. The proposed algorithm demonstrates an efficiency of approximately 0.75% compared to 0.63% for the P&O method. Simulation and experimental validation results confirm the NNC strategy's effectiveness, robustness, and efficiency, providing a thorough system analysis.

EDM-Grinding composite machining and drilling of polycrystalline diamond tool

ABSTRACT Polycrystalline diamond (PCD) is widely used for micro tools due to its high hardness and wear resistance. However, micro PCD tools face challenges in machining with high accuracy and efficiency. Therefore, electrical discharge machining grinding (EDM-grinding) composite machining was proposed. The effects of pulse discharge parameters on surface quality and microhole drilling performance of PCD tool were investigated. The results show that the surface roughness of helix flute and flank face of the fabricated PCD tool were 0.125 µm and 0.158 µm, respectively, as well as the inner wall roughness achieved 0.331 µm after drilling of microhole. The average current displayed a greater effect on the machining quality of PCD tools, with tool breakage in excessive average current. The preferred pulse discharge parameters were determined as an open-circuit voltage of 95 V, an average current of 1400 mA, a pulse width of 400 ns, and a pulse interval of 2000 ns.

Amphipathic Astaxanthin Additive for Low Voltage-loss Perovskite Solar Cells With Enhanced Quasi-Fermi Level Splitting and Solar Hydrogen Production Application.

Even though the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) is nearly approaching the Schottky-Queisser limit, low open-circuit voltage (Voc) and severe Voc loss problems continue to impede the improvement of PCEs. Astaxanthin (ASTA) additive is introduced in the formamidinium lead triiodide (FAPbI3)perovskite film as an additive, which can facilitate the transportation of charge carriers and interact with Pb2+ by its distinctive groupings. Furthermore, the addition of ASTA decreases the defect's active energy, regulates the deep-level defect by filling up the grain boundaries (GBs), and promotes the crystallization of perovskite film. Remarkably, an enhanced quasi-Fermi level splitting (QFLS) of 1.164eV and a reduced Voc loss of only 96mV are realized. The champion PCE of 24.56% is attained by ASTA-modified PSCs on the basis of 22.75% PCE. Moreover, the PSCs that underwent ASTA modification demonstrate improved operational stability, ensuring consistent output in real-world scenarios. Furthermore, PSCs with an active area of 1 cm2 are used for water electrolysis to produce hydrogen and exhibit a PCE of 22.41%. This work offers an environmentally benign solution to address the inherent issues of FAPbI3 PSCs and lays the groundwork for the development of a prospective solar hydrogen production application.

Theoretical prediction of two-dimensional metallic AM2B8 (AM = K, Rb, Cs) as anode materials for Na-ion batteries

The development of two-dimensional anode materials with superior performance is becoming a critical undertaking for the advancement of Na-ion battery technology. Using isoelectronic substitution strategies, we predicted three alkali metal borides AM2B8 (AM = K, Rb, Cs) based on the SrB8 monolayer. Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations and phonon dispersion relationship calculations demonstrated their stability. Using density functional theory, we predict the feasibility of these three new metal nanosheets as anodes for Na-ion batteries. The AM2B8 monolayer retains its metallicity after the insertion of Na ions, ensuring that the anode has good electrical conductivity. In addition, AM2B8 has a low diffusion barrier and open circuit voltage (K2B8 is 0.08eV and 0.26V) during charge/discharge. In the voltage range that inhibits dendrite growth, K2B8 can reach the maximum theoretical specific capacity (326mAh/g). These results indicate that AM2B8, especially K2B8, is a promising anode material for Na-ion batteries.

Effect of In and Sc Co-doping on electrochemical performance on bulk and grain boundaries of La1.9In0.05Sc0.05Ce2O7 proton conductors

In this paper, fluorite-type proton conductors La1.9In0.1Ce2O7, La1.9In0.05Sc0.05Ce2O7 and La1.9Sc0.1Ce2O7 (referred to as LCO-I, LCO-IS and LCO-S), were synthesized by the low-cost solid-state reaction method. The formation process and structure of single-doped LCO-I and LCO-S and co-doped LCO-IS were studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The electrochemical performance was studied using alternating current electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). XRD results showed that the synthesized material had a fluorite structure, without any impurity phase. SEM micrographs showed that LCO-I, LCO-S and LCO-IS had a fairly dense grain. EDS analysis confirmed that the elemental composition of LCO-I, LCO-S and LCO-IS was evenly distributed and contained no impurities. LCO-IS exhibited superior conductivity among related materials, and the total conductivity of LCO-IS in oxygen was 9.49 × 10−3 S cm−1 at 800 °C. The effects of co-doping on bulk and grain boundary properties were analyzed using the distribution of relaxation time (DRT). The bulk and grain boundary conductivity of co-doped LCO-IS was higher than that of single-doped LCO-I and LCO-S. LCO-IS showed good proton conductivity. In the temperature range of 300–800 °C, the proton conductivity was 1.35 × 10−6–4.43 × 10−3 S cm−1. For LCO-I and LCO-IS electrolyte supported symmetric cells (Ag ǀ LCO-I (LCO-IS) ǀ Ag), their open circuit voltages were 0.99 V and 0.97 V, respectively, at 700 °C, and the power densities were 8.8 mW cm−2 and 9.34 mW cm−2. This demonstrates the potential of LCO-IS to be used in various devices as a proton-conducting electrolyte.

Numerical evaluation and optimization of high sensitivity Cu2CdSnSe4 photodetector

Copper cadmium tin selenide (Cu2CdSnSe4) based photodetector (PD) has been explored with the solar cell capacitance simulator (SCAPS-1D). Herein, cadmium sulfide (CdS) and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) are used as a window and back surface field (BSF) layers, respectively. The physical attributes, such as width, carrier density and bulk defects have been adjusted to attain the optimal conditions. In an optimized environment, the performance parameters of the Cu2CdSnSe4 (CCTSe) PD e.g. open circuit voltage (VOC), short circuit current (JSC), responsivity, and detectivity are determined as 0.76 V, 45.57 mA/cm2, 0.72 A/W and 5.05×1014 Jones, respectively without a BSF layer. After insertion of the BSF layer, the performance of the CCTSe PD is significantly upgraded because of the production of high built-in potential which rises the magnitude of VOC from 0.76 V to 0.84 V. For this reason, the responsivity and detectivity of CCTSe PD are also grows with the value of 0.84 A/W and 2.32×1015 Jones, respectively that indicate its future potential.

22.56% total area efficiency of n-TOPCon solar cell with screen-printed Al paste

Screen-printing Ag paste on the rear side of the Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact solar cells (TOPCon) is still the mainstream method to form electrodes. However, the high price of precious metals increases the cost of TOPCon cells. Al is a cheap and high-performance conductor, and its work function is compatible with the rear side of TOPCon cells. In this study, we used a UV pulse laser (355 nm, 10 ps) to ablate the rear side SiNx passivation layer of TOPCon cells and then printed Al paste with different weight percentages of silicon (Si-wt.%) on the phosphorus-doped polycrystalline silicon (n+-poly-Si) layer to reduce the cost. We investigated the damage mechanism of laser on SiOx/n+-poly-Si/SiNx passivation structure and the contact mechanism between Al paste and n+-poly-Si layer. The results show that the Voc of SiOx/n+-poly-Si/SiNx passivation structure reduced about 6–7 mV when the laser energy density was 0.431 J/cm2. We got the best electrical performance of TOPCon cells printed with Al paste (25 wt%-29 wt% silicon). The open-circuit voltage (Voc) and the conversion efficiency (Eff), have reached 663.60 mV and 22.56 % respectively. Although the efficiency was 9.40 % relative lower than that of TOPCon cells printed with Ag paste, but the cost of Al paste only accounted for 10 % of Ag paste. In the future, the highest Eff of TOPCon solar cells printed with Al paste on the rear side are expected to reach the commercial TOPCon based on Ag paste, which applies laser doping selective emitter technology (SE) and bifacial poly-Si passivation structure.

The advancement of cost-effective, highly efficient sensitizers plays a crucial role in the progress of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Employing density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT), a range of metal-free organic dyes with D - π - A configuration, featuring different donor and acceptor groups, have been investigated to enhance the effectiveness of sensitizer dyes. We developed metal-free organic dyes (Ak1-Ak6) with a D - π - A structure through structural modifications of alkannin reference dye. Calculations were conducted to assess the electronic and optical properties, along with key parameters such as short-circuit current density (Jsc) and open-circuit voltage (Voc), including light-harvesting efficiency (LHE), electronic injection-free energy (ΔG inject), and regeneration driving forces (ΔG reg) of the designed dyes. The outcomes of this study offer valuable insights for the design of highefficiency DSSCs.

A theoretical investigation into the impact of temperature and band gap variation of La2NiMnO6 oxide double perovskite nanostructures on the performance of La2NiMnO6/MASnI3 based hybrid solar cells

The study aimed at simulating a model of bilayer La2NiMnO6/MASnI3 hybrid perovskite solar cell having a potential benefit of better stability at higher operating temperature with higher band gap of LNMO. This numerical analysis of La2NiMnO6/MASnI3 based hybrid solar cell performance parameters has been carried out as a function of temperature and optical band gap (Eg) of La2NiMnO6 (LNMO). The analysis reveals that the fill factor of solar cells operated at room temperature has not been affected too much on varying Eg of LNMO and decreases non-linearly with increasing operating temperature. The open circuit voltage of solar cells operated at room temperature increases with increasing Eg of LNMO and drops linearly with increasing operating temperature. The short-circuit current density (JSC) increases non-linearly at different rates with increasing the operating temperature. The value of dη/dT increases up to a critical temperature (Tc) and then decreases in the solar cells comprised with higher Eg of LNMO (Eg ∼ 1.50 eV - 1.60 eV). The Tc value was shifted towards higher operating temperature in the higher Eg of LNMO (Eg ≥ 1.50 eV), enabling more stable solar cell at higher operating temperature.

In the quest to unlock the remarkable potential of nanotechnology, the sol-gel method was employed to craft a porous TiO2 nanostructured film, meticulously deposited onto FTO glass substrates. This endeavor marked a significant leap as a controlled bombardment of Cu ions, accelerated at 700 keV, at varying flux rates of 2x1013, 2x1014, and 2x1015 ions/cm² was introduced to these ingeniously engineered films. A comprehensive assessment of these nanocrystalline TiO2 structures, both before and after Cu+2 ion irradiation, revealed a fascinating array of results. he anatase tetragonal structure's permanence was validated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), which improved the material's stability and integrity. In the present study, an interesting observation was made that band edges show a dynamic behavior in Cuirradiated samples in UV-Vis spectroscopy. At 2x1014 ions/cm2, the phenomena peaked, revealing an intriguing redshift and an exceptionally low band gap value of 3.39 eV. In photoluminescence spectra, the peaks corresponding to the lattice defects show a significant reduction when the flux of the Cu ions on TiO2 is adjusted to 2 x 1014 ions/cm2. It is an indication that film quality and purity have improved. This arrangement for photoanode modification helps in the development of dye-sensitized solar cells with tremendous characteristics. The fabricated device with this novel approach results in high values of open circuit voltage (Voc), short circuit current density (Jsc), fill factor (FF), and maximum photoconversion efficiency of 5.10%. These findings indicate a new era of possibilities in the field of renewable energy, since these nanostructured materials have the ability to significantly alter the solar field.

Enhanced solid-electrolyte interface efficiency for practically viable hydrogen-air fuel cell systems

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) provide an appealing sustainable energy system, with the solid-electrolyte membrane playing a crucial role in its overall performance. Currently, sulfonated poly(1,4-phenylene ether-ether sulfone) (SPEES), an aromatic hydrocarbon polymer, has garnered considerable attention as an alternative to Nafion polymers. However, the long-term durability and stability of SPEES present a significant challenge. In this context, we introduce a potential solution in the form of an additive, specifically a core-shell-based amine-functionalized iron titanate (A–Fe2TiO5), which holds promise for improving the lifetime, proton conductivity, and power density of SPEES in PEMFCs. The modified SPEES/A–Fe2TiO5 composite membranes exhibited notable characteristics, including high water uptake (WU), enhanced thermomechanical stability, and oxidative stability. Notably, the SPEES membrane loaded with 1.2 wt.% of A–Fe2TiO5 demonstrates a maximum proton conductivity of 155 mS cm−1, a twofold increase compared to the SPEES membrane, at 80 °C under 100% relative humidity (RH). Furthermore, the 1.2 wt.% of A–Fe2TiO5/SPEES composite membranes exhibited a maximum power density of 397.37 mW cm−2 and a current density of 1600.9 mA cm−2 at 60 °C under 100% RH, with an open-circuit voltage decay of 0.05 mV h−1 during 103 h of continuous operation. This study offers significant insights into the development and understanding of innovative SPEES nanocomposite membranes for PEMFC applications.

Operator-Based Triboelectric Nanogenerator Power Management and Output Voltage Control

In this paper, an operator-based voltage control method for TENGs is investigated, achieving output voltage tracking without compensators and uncertainty suppression using robust right coprime factorization. Initially, a comprehensive simulation-capable circuit model for TENGs is developed, integrating their open-circuit voltage and variable capacitance characteristics. This model is implemented to simulate the behavior of TENGs with a rectifier bridge and capacitive load. To address the high-voltage, low-current pulsating nature of TENG outputs, a storage capacitor switching model is designed to effectively transfer the pulsating energy. This switching model is directly connected to a buck converter and operates under a unified control strategy. A complete TENG power management system was established based on this model, incorporating an operator theory-based control strategy. This strategy ensures steady output voltage under varying load conditions without using compensators, thereby reducing disturbances. Simulation results validate the feasibility of the proposed TENG system and the efficacy of the control strategy, providing a robust framework for optimizing TENG energy harvesting and management systems with significant potential for practical applications.

Porous Structure Enhances the Longitudinal Piezoelectric Coefficient and Electromechanical Coupling Coefficient of Lead-Free (Ba0.85Ca0.15)(Zr0.1Ti0.9)O3.

The introduction of porosity into ferroelectric ceramics can decrease the effective permittivity, thereby enhancing the open circuit voltage and electrical energy generated by the direct piezoelectric effect. However, the decrease in the longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient (d33) with increasing porosity levels currently limiting the range of pore fractions that can be employed. By introducing aligned lamellar pores into (Ba0.85Ca0.15)(Zr0.1Ti0.9)O3, this paper demonstrates an unusual 22-41% enhancement in the d33 compared to its dense counterpart. This unique combination of high d33 and a low permittivity leads to a significantly improved voltage coefficient (g33), energy harvesting figure of merit (FoM33) and electromechanical coupling coefficient ( ). The underlying mechanism for the improved properties is demonstrated to be a synergy between the low defect concentration and high internal polarizing field within the porous lamellar structure. This work provides insights into the design of porous ferroelectrics for applications related to sensors, energy harvesters, and actuators.

High Open-Circuit Voltage Wide-Bandgap Perovskite Solar Cell with Interface Dipole Layer.

Wide-bandgap perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with high open-circuit voltage (Voc) represent a compelling and emerging technological advancement in high-performing perovskite-based tandem solar cells. Interfacial engineering is an effective strategy to enhance Voc in PSCs by tailoring the energy level alignments between the constituent layers. Herein, n-type quinoxaline-phosphine oxide-based small molecules with strong dipole moments is designed and introduce them as effective cathode interfacial layers. Their strong dipole effect leads to appropriate energy level alignment by tuning the work function of the Ag electrode to form an ohmic contact and enhance the built-in potential within the device, thereby improving charge-carrier transport and mitigating charge recombination. The organic interfacial layer-modified wide-bandgap PSCs exhibit a high Voc of 1.31V (deficit of <0.44V) and a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 20.3%, significantly improved from the device without an interface dipole layer (Voc of 1.26V and PCE of 16.7%). Furthermore, the hydrophobic characteristics of the small molecules contribute to improved device stability, retaining 95% of the initial PCE after 500h in ambient air.

Synthesis of Multifunctional Organic Molecules via Michael Addition Reaction to Manage Perovskite Crystallization and Defect.

Additive engineering plays a pivotal role in achieving high-quality light-absorbing layers for high-performance and stable perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Various functional groups within the additives exert distinct regulatory effects on the perovskite layer. However, few additive molecules can synergistically fulfill the dual functions of regulating crystallization and passivating defects. Here, we custom-synthesized 2-ureido-4-pyrimidone (UPy) organic small molecules with diverse functional groups as additives to modulate crystallization and defects in perovskite films via the Michael addition reaction. Theoretical and experimental investigations demonstrate that the -OH groups in UPy exhibit significant effects in fixing uncoordinated Pb2+ ions, passivation of lead-iodide antisite defects, alleviating hysteresis, and reducing non-radiative recombination. Furthermore, the enhanced C=O and -NH2 motifs interact with the A-site cation via hydrogen bonding, which relieves residual strain and adjusts crystal orientation. This strategy effectively controls perovskite crystallization and passivates defects, ultimately enhancing the quality of perovskite films. Consequently, the open-circuit voltage of the UPy-based p-i-n PSCs reaches 1.20 V, and the fill factor surpasses 84%. The champion device delivers a power conversion efficiency of 25.75%. Remarkably, the unencapsulated device maintained 96.9% and 94.5% of its initial efficiency following 3,360 hours of dark storage and 1,866 hours of 1-sun illumination, respectively.
