Energy transduction and signal averaging of fluctuating electric fields by a single protein ion channel
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)
We demonstrate the electrical rectification and signal averaging of fluctuating signals using a biological
nanostructure in aqueous solution: a single protein ion channel inserted in the lipid bilayer characteristic
of ...
Relative Impacts of Methylammonium Lead Triiodide Perovskite Solar Cells Based on Life Cycle Assessment
(Elsevier, 2017-11-22)
The environmental performance of four different device assembly procedures based on
hybrid halide perovskite solar cell (PSC) were assessed from cradle to grave using life
cycle assessment (LCA) methodology. In addition, ...
Corneal relaxation time estimation as a function of tear oxygen tension in human cornea during contact lens wear
(John Wiley & Sons, 2019-12-03)
The purpose is to estimate the oxygen diffusion coefficient and the relaxation time of the cornea with respect to the oxygen tension at the cornea–tears interface. Both findings are discussed. From the experimental data ...
On Mott-Schottky analysis interpretation of capacitance measurements in organometal perovskite solar cells
(AIP Publishing, 2016)
Capacitance response of perovskite-based solar cells (PSCs) can be exploited to infer underlying physical mechanisms, both in the materials bulk and at outer interfaces. Particularly interesting is applying the depletion ...
Electron injection and scaffold effects in perovskite solar cells
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-12)
In spite of the impressive efficiencies reported for perovskite solar cells (PSCs), key aspects of their working principles, such as electron injection at the contacts or the suitability of the utilization of a specific ...
Enhanced conductivity of sodium versus lithium salts measured by impedance spectroscopy. Sodium cobaltacarboranes as electrolytes of choice
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)
The development of new types of ion conducting materials is one of the most important challenges in
the field of energy. Lithium salt polymer electrolytes have been the most convenient, and thus the most
widely used in ...
Optical Amplification in Hollow-Core Negative-Curvature Fibers Doped with Perovskite CsPbBr3 Nanocrystals
(MDPI, 2019)
We report a hollow-core negative-curvature fiber (HC-NCF) optical signal amplifier
fabricated by the filling of the air microchannels of the fiber with all-inorganic CsPbBr3 perovskite
nanocrystals (PNCs). The optimum ...
Ion Transport in Confined Geometries below the Nanoscale: Access Resistance Dominates Protein Channel Conductance in Diluted Solutions
(2017)
Synthetic nanopores and mesoscopic protein channels have common traits like the importance of electrostatic interactions between the permeating ions and the nanochannel. Ion transport at the nanoscale occurs under confinement ...
Analysis of the application of the generalized monod kinetics model to describe the human corneal oxygen-consumption rate during soft contact lens wear
(Wiley, 2017-10)
This work is an analysis of the application of the generalized Monod kinetics model describing human corneal oxygen consumption during soft contact lens wear to models previously used by Chhabra et al. (J Biomed Mater Res ...
Near-complete suppression of surface losses and total internal quantum efficiency in BiVO4 photoanodes
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017-05-26)
Bismuth vanadate (BiVO4) is one of the most efficient light absorbing metal oxides for solar water
splitting. BiVO4 photoanodes immersed in an electrolyte in an open circuit configuration and exposed to
simulated solar ...
