Investigation Of Vopcpho As An Acceptor Material For Bulk Heterojunction Solar Cells, Shahino Mah Abdullah
Investigation Of Vopcpho As An Acceptor Material For Bulk Heterojunction Solar Cells, Shahino Mah Abdullah
Shahino Mah Abdullah
In this study, we have successfully demonstrated a new system of donor–acceptor blend for bulk heterojunction solar cells of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) by using vanadyl 2,9,16,23-tetraphenoxy-29H,31H-phthalocyanine (VOPcPhO) as acceptor material. A broad absorption over the whole visible range (450–750 nm) is achieved. Utilizing this blend system in solar cell fabrication, ITO/PEDOT:PSS/P3HT:VOPcPhO/Al solar cells have been fabricated and characterized in open air. A maximum power conversation efficiency up to 1.09% has been recorded. To confirm the charge transport, the electron and hole mobility of VoPcPhO has been measured. The results show that the VoPcPhO has bipolar transport and can act as an …

Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) have great potentials for future cell-based therapeutics. However, their mechanosensitivity to biophysical signals from the cellular microenvironment is not well characterized. Here we introduced an effective microfabrication strategy for accurate control and patterning of nanoroughness on glass surfaces. Our results demonstrated that nanotopography could provide a potent regulatory signal over different hESC behaviors, including cell morphology, adhesion, proliferation, clonal expansion, and self-renewal. Our results indicated that topological sensing of hESCs might include feedback regulation involving mechanosensory integrin-mediated cell matrix adhesion, myosin II, and E-cadherin. Our results also demonstrated that cellular responses to nanotopography were cell-type …
Temperature-Sensitive Chemical Cell Based On Nickel (Ii) Phthalocyanine-Tetrasulfonic Acid Tetrasodium Salt, Shahino Mah Abdullah
Temperature-Sensitive Chemical Cell Based On Nickel (Ii) Phthalocyanine-Tetrasulfonic Acid Tetrasodium Salt, Shahino Mah Abdullah
Shahino Mah Abdullah
An organic compound Nickel (II) phthalocyanine-tetrasulfonic acid tetrasodium salt (NiTSPc) has been studied as a potential material for a solution based temperature sensor. Using NiTSPc, an ITO/NiTSPc solution/ITO chemical cell has been made and characterized in the temperature range of 20–85 ◦C. This sensor works on the principle of change in the resistance and capacitance of the chemical cell caused by the temperature variation. Good response/recovery and small hysteresis have been attained. The proposed sensor is aimed to evolve towards highly sensitive organic temperature sensor in a specific temperature range.

Essentials Of The Theory Of Abstraction - Lecture, Subhajit Kumar Ganguly

In not favouring solutions or sets of solutions, the principle of zero-postulation drives away any unwanted incompleteness from the description of the world. It is the interactions between the possible exhaustive set of solutions that creates the impression pointedness or directiveness in the universe, leading to the formation of clusters, as discussed earlier. These interactions may be chaotic in nature, giving rise to attractor points where the directiveness inside any given system asymptotically seem to approach. It is this directiveness, in turn, inside a given system or in the universe as a whole, that is the cause of all known …
Local Non-Equilibrium Diffusion Model For Solute Trapping During Rapid Solidification, Sergey Sobolev
Local Non-Equilibrium Diffusion Model For Solute Trapping During Rapid Solidification, Sergey Sobolev
Sergey Sobolev
A local non-equilibrium diffusion model (LNDM) for rapid solidification of binary alloys has been briefly reviewed and used to modify a number of solute trapping models with different solid–liquid interface kinetics. The LNDM takes into account deviation from local equilibrium of a solute diffusion field in bulk liquid on the basis that the exact solutions to hyperbolic diffusion equations govern the solute concentration and solute flux in bulk liquid under local non-equilibrium conditions. The LNDM leads to a velocity-dependent effective diffusion coefficient in bulk liquid ahead of the solid–liquid interface, which goes to zero when the interface velocity goes to …
Rapid Colloidal Solidifications Under Local Nonequilibrium Diffusion Conditions, Sergey Sobolev
Rapid Colloidal Solidifications Under Local Nonequilibrium Diffusion Conditions, Sergey Sobolev
Sergey Sobolev
Partition coefficient for rapid solidification of colloidal suspensions has been calculated under local nonequilibrium diffusion conditions typically used when processing advanced materials. It has been demonstrated that the local nonequilibrium diffusion effects stabilize the planar solid liquid interface and lead to an abrupt transition to diffusionless solidification with complete particle trapping. The effective diffusion coefficient, which depends on interface velocity and particle size, has been introduced. It explains the strong dependences of the partition coefficient and the velocity leading to absolute stability of a planar solid–liquid interface on particle size.

An Analytical Model For Local-Nonequilibrium Solute Trapping During Rapid Solidification, Sergey Sobolev
Sergey Sobolev
Updated version of local non-equilibrium diffusion model (LNDM) for rapid solidification of binary alloys was considered. The LNDM takes into account deviation from local equilibrium of solute concentration and solute flux fields in bulk liquid. The exact solutions for solute concentration and flux in bulk liquid were obtained using hyperbolic diffusion equations. The results show the transition from diffusion-limited to purely thermally controlled solidification with effective diffusion coefficient D →0 and complete solute trapping K(v)→1 at V→VDb for any kind of solid-liquid interface kinetics. Critical parameter for diffusionless solidification and complete solute trapping is the diffusion speed in bulk liquid …

Dielectric Behaviour Of Polyurethane Coatings Derived From Palm Oil Oleic Acid-Based Polyols -A Renewable Resource, Wan Haliza Binti Abd Majid
Wan Haliza binti Abd Majid
Dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (frequency range from 100Hz to 40 MHz) was used to examine molecular motion in polyurethane (PUR) derived from palm oil oleic acid-based polyols at room temperature. PUR was prepared by varying the oleic acid content in the polyol (28°c, 40°c and 65°c), while the NCO/OH ratio of PUR was varied to 1.2, 1.4 and 1.6. The effect of chemical contribution on dielectric behaviour of the samples was described. Dielectric parameters were in the range of 2.0 to 3.0 for real permittivity and 0.02 to 0.08 for imaginary permittivity, s". A Cole-Cole plot was fitted using the Havriliak-Negami …
