A Solution-Based Temperature Sensor Using The Organic Compound Cutspc, Shahino Mah Abdullah Jun 2014

A Solution-Based Temperature Sensor Using The Organic Compound Cutspc, Shahino Mah Abdullah

Shahino Mah Abdullah

An electrochemical cell using an organic compound, copper (II) phthalocyanine-tetrasulfonic acid tetrasodium salt (CuTsPc,) has been fabricated and investigated as a solution-based temperature sensor. The capacitance and resistance of the ITO/CuTsPc solution/ITO chemical cell has been characterized as a function of temperature in the temperature range of 25–80 °C. A linear response with minimal hysteresis is observed. The fabricated temperature sensor has shown high consistency and sensitive response towards a specific range of temperature values.


Photovoltaic Effect In Single-Junction Organic Solar Cell Fabricated Using Vanadyl Phthalocyanine Soluble Derivative, Shahino Mah Abdullah Jun 2014

Photovoltaic Effect In Single-Junction Organic Solar Cell Fabricated Using Vanadyl Phthalocyanine Soluble Derivative, Shahino Mah Abdullah

Shahino Mah Abdullah

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to study the optical and electrical characteristics of a single‐junction solar cell based on a green-color dye Vanadyl 2,9,16, 23-tetraphenoxy-29H, 31H-phthalocyanine (VOPcPhO). The use of soluble vanadyl phthalocyanine derivative makes it very attractive for photovoltaic applications due to its tunable properties and high solubility. Design/methodology/approach: A photoactive layer of VOPcPhO has been sandwiched between indium tin oxide (ITO) and aluminum (Al) electrodes to produce ITO/PEDOT:PSS/VOPcPhO/Al photovoltaic device. The VOPcPhO thin film is deposited by a simple spin coating technique. In order to obtain the optimal thickness for the solar cell device, different thicknesses …


Investigation Of Charge Transport In Organic Polymer Donor/Acceptor Photovolatic Materials, Zubair Ahmad, Shahino Mah Abdullah, Khaulah Sulaiman May 2014

Investigation Of Charge Transport In Organic Polymer Donor/Acceptor Photovolatic Materials, Zubair Ahmad, Shahino Mah Abdullah, Khaulah Sulaiman

Pi-conjugated organic semiconductors have long been used as either holes or electrons transport materials. Recently ambipolar charge carrier transport in these materials have been reported in many investigations. In this paper, we report on the basis of experimental results that the organic semiconductor (donor/acceptor) materials can be as good electrons transporters as these materials are holes transporters. In our study, the solution-processed unipolar diodes based on organic materials P3HT, VOPCPhO and their blends with PCBM have been fabricated. The I-V characteristics of these diodes have been analyzed in the space charge limited current regime. The values of the electron and …


Solving The Instantaneous Response Paradox Of Entangled Particles Using The Time Of Events Theory, Sadeem Abbas Fadhil Feb 2014

Solving The Instantaneous Response Paradox Of Entangled Particles Using The Time Of Events Theory, Sadeem Abbas Fadhil

Sadeem Abbas Fadhil

In the present study, a new theory that relates the special theory of relativity with quantum mechanics is formulated and then used to explain the remote instantaneous response of entangled particles without the assumptions of nonlocality or hidden variables. The basic assumptions of the present theory stands on the foundation of two space-times, namely, the static and dynamic space-times, in which the latter contains space points that move at the speed of light. The remote instantaneous interaction of the entangled particles is due to the closeness of these particles to each other in the dynamic space-time in spite of remoteness …
