A Systematic Study On Structural And Optical Properties In Conjugated Polymer Photovoltaic Devices, Sri Sabarinadh Sunkavalli
A Systematic Study On Structural And Optical Properties In Conjugated Polymer Photovoltaic Devices, Sri Sabarinadh Sunkavalli
Electrical & Computer Engineering Theses & Dissertations
Conjugated polymer/fullerene based solar cells represent an exciting alternative to inorganic ones because of their low production costs, flexibility and low weight. At present, commercialization of organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells is limited due to their relatively low efficiency in comparison to silicon ones. In order to understand the operation of OPV cells and to increase their efficiency, more information about the structure of the absorber layer is needed. In particular, the connection between structure and properties of the absorber layer is of great importance. Performance of bulk heterojunction organic solar cells based on poly (3-hexylthiophene) as donor and a soluble …
A Timer Module For An 8051 Microcontroller, Troy England
A Timer Module For An 8051 Microcontroller, Troy England
Electrical Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
A timer module for an 8051 Microcontroller is designed from the ground up. It could potentially be integrated into a larger 8051 for use in lunar and Martian missions. It follows through a synchronous digital design flow from HDL code through layout verification. The timer shows functionality at 100MHz with some minor glitches.
Measurement Of Absolute Argon Excited State Populations And Electron Energy Distribution Functions In An Ar-A-Si Plasma, Katherine Herring
Measurement Of Absolute Argon Excited State Populations And Electron Energy Distribution Functions In An Ar-A-Si Plasma, Katherine Herring
Electrical Engineering Undergraduate Honors Theses
Deposition systems utilizing plasma are used for a variety of tasks, including tool coatings and creating thin-film materials. In order to have repeatable results, the internal conditions of a plasma chamber need to be known. This project centered on the use of data from optical emissions and a Langmuir probe from an argon plasma amorphous silicon depositing system. An electron energy distribution function (EEDF) was obtained from manipulation of the Langmuir probe data. This EEDF was then input to an argon collisional-radiative model (CRM) to obtain the electron population of the 4p level of the argon plasma. Through an absolute …
