Metal halide perovskites (MHP), as used in photovoltaic (PV) applications, show a rich photophysics in inert and ambient atmosphere. The presence of atmospheric molecules leads to processes that enhance as well as reduce their photoluminescence (PL) emission. Various phenomena are previously described for a wide variety of gas molecules and different classes of MHP, with a particular interest on t

We studied the seasonal fluctuation of norovirus and other enteric viruses in Cameroon. Two hundred participants aged between 1 and 69 years were prospectively followed up. Each participant provided monthly faecal samples over a 12-month period. A total of 2484 samples were tested using multiplex real-time PCR assay for the detection of norovirus, rotavirus and enterovirus. The effect of weather v

In this work, we rationalize the chemical pathways and kinetics of the crystallization of methylammonium lead iodide hybrid perovskite. Our approach includes a combination of analysis of solvent coordination, the structure of intermediate solvate phases, and modeling evaporation rates of precursor solutions.

A combination of theoretical predictions and isotopic equilibration experiments using the three-isotope method have been performed to assess Si isotope fractionation among minerals, and aqueous species in the presence of dissolved catechol. Aqueous Si in abiotic ambient temperature aqueous solutions is dominated by the IV-coordinated H4SiO04species, but the presence of aqueous catechol provokes th

Glas är ett genomsiktligt material som används i byggnader för att utforma miljöer som är ljusa och upplevs som öppna. Modernt byggnadsglas används i konstruktioner som utsätts för betydande laster jämfört med ett traditionellt fönsterglas. Som exempel kan nämnas trappsteg, balustrader, golv, tak och väggpaneler där glasets geometriska utformning kan vara mer eller mindre komplex. Det finns ett beNovel and increased use of glass in building construction has been made possible, as a result of methods of mass production introduced during the 20th century and advanced computational structural analyses. With modern use of glass structures, a range of demands emerge which need to be addressed in the strength design process. The aim of the thesis work has been to develop experimentally verified

Chronic prurigo (CPG) is a highly burdensome pruritic disease characterized by chronic itch, a prolonged scratching behavior and the development of localized or generalized hyperkeratotic pruriginous lesions. Neuronal sensitization and the development of an itch-scratch cycle contribute to the augmentation of pruritus and the chronicity of the disease. We provide here the first international guide

Chronic nodular prurigo is characterized by recalcitrant itch. Patient perspectives on therapeutic goals, satisfaction with therapy and efficacy of therapeutic regimens for this condition are unknown. This questionnaire study examined these issues in 406 patients with chronic nodular prurigo from 15 European dermatological centres. Improvements in itch, skin lesions and sleep were the most importa

BACKGROUND: Itch is a common symptom in the general population. Affected individuals often do not seek medical consultation and rely on Internet searches to obtain information regarding their itch.OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to attain insights into common concerns of the general population regarding itch can by analysing itch-related Internet search behaviour.METHODS: Google AdWords Keyw

Komplekse demonstrativer består av et definitt element, f.eks. den eller sa, og et deiktisk element som kan betegne det nære (proksimal, f.eks. her) eller det fjerne (distal: der). Slike komplekse demonstrativer tar ulike uttrykk i norsk, ikke minst i dialektene, der vi finner systemer som kan være til dels ganske ulike de to norske standardvarietetene. Vi finner systemer med flere distinksjoner e

Silver particle-free inks display immense superiority and potential over silver nanoparticle-based inks in the aspect of synthesis, flexibility and low-temperature processing, which has attracted considerable research interest as an alternative for fabricating conductive structures in recent years. Although recent research on silver particle-free inks has led to beneficial results, there are still

A more collaborative, interdisciplinary, open, transparent and reproducible science begins to be required by Public Funding Agencies along the world. This contribution explains how a real project funded by the European Commission and researching in six innovative photovoltaic solutions, has embraced concepts of Open Science to foster innovation in our sector. In this paper we mainly focus on the c

2,2′,7,7′-Tetrakis(N,N-di-p-methoxyphenylamine)-9, 9′-spirobifluorene (spiro-OMeTAD), the prevalent organic hole transport material used in solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells and perovskite-absorber solar cells, relies on an uncontrolled oxidative process to reach appreciable conductivity. This work presents the use of a dicationic salt of spiro-OMeTAD, named spiro(TFSI)2, as a facile means of

A method for achieving complete pore-filling in solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells termed melt-infiltration is presented: after the customary solution-processed deposition of spiro-OMeTAD, the device is heated above the glass transition temperature of spiro-OMeTAD to soften the material and allow capillary action to pull additional spiro-OMeTAD from the overlayer reservoir into the pores. The

High solubility is a requirement for energy relay dyes (ERDs) to absorb a large portion of incident light and significantly improve the efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Two benzonitrile-soluble ERDs, BL302 and BL315, were synthesized, characterized, and resulted in a 65% increase in the efficiency of TT1-sensitized DSSCs. The high solubility (180 mM) of these ERDs allows for absor

Introduction of a naphthalocyanine moiety to phthalocyanine allows for a gradual red shift of the absorption spectrum in the resulting chromophore. Using silicon as a core atom allows for the introduction of additional siloxane side chains which mitigate dye aggregation. A dye-sensitized solar cell with this hybrid sensitizer exhibits a broad and flat IPCE of 80% between 600 and 750 nm and high ph
