A generic concept to overcome bandgap limitations for designing highly efficient multi-junction photovoltaic cells
(Nature Publishing Group, London, 2015)
The multi-junction concept is the most relevant approach to overcome the Shockley-Queisser limit for single-junction photovoltaic cells. The record efficiencies of several types of solar technologies are held by series-connected ...
Gain-maximized GaAs/AlGaAs quantum-cascade laser with digitally graded active region
(Amer Inst Physics, Melville, 2002)
An advanced strategy for the optimal design and realization of a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum-cascade laser is presented. It relies on recently established inverse scattering techniques to design an optimal smooth active region ...
Nitrogen plasma surface treatment for improving polar ink adhesion on micro/nanofibrillated cellulose films
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2019)
We find that nitrogen plasma treatment of micro/nanofibrillated cellulose films increases wettability of the surface by both liquid polar water and nonpolar hexadecane. The increased wetting effect is more pronounced in ...
The effect of cesium dopant on APCVD graphene coating on copper
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2020)
This study reports in-situ cesium-doped graphene (G/Cs) coating obtained by introducing Cs2CO3 into the atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD) furnace during graphene deposition on copper. The successful ...
Synthesis of medium-chain length capsinoids from coconut oil catalyzed by Candida rugosa lipases
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
A commercial preparation of Candida rugosa lipases (CRL) was tested for the production of capsinoids by esterification of vanillyl alcohol (VA) with free fatty acids (FA) and coconut oil (CO) as acyl donors. Screening of ...
The chitosan-based bioactive composite coating on titanium
(Elsevier B.V., 2021)
This paper describes a promising electrophoretic deposition (EPD) approach for developing composite coatings based on chitosan with the additional components of hydroxyapatite, graphene, and gentamicin on titanium substrate. ...
Old Plant, New Possibilities: Wild Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L., Ericaceae) in Topical Skin Preparation
(Antioxidants, 2021)
Bilberry represents a valuable source of antioxidant substances responsible for its application for the treatment of different conditions (such as inflammation, cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and different ...
The effect of the ultrasound agitation and source of ceria particles on the morphology and structure of the Zn-Co-CeO2 composite coatings
(Journal of Materials Research and Technology-JMR&T, 2021)
The goal of this research was to develop and analyse novel Zn-Co-CeO2 protective coatings on steel. Two different sources of ceria (CeO2) particles were employed: commercial powder and synthesized stable colloidal ...
