Due to global warming, green-house effect and various other drawbacks of existing energy sources, renewable energy like Photovoltaic system is being popular for energy production. The result of photovoltaic potentiality analysis depends on data quality and parameters. Shadow rapidly decreases performance of the Photovoltaic system and it always changes due to the movement of the sun. Solar radi...

An experimental study was carried out of photovoltaic effects occurring in the structure Cu/CuTCNQ/ITO(A1). Prototype devices were fabricated by growing CuTCNQ organic thin films directly on a copper substrate and then laying the semitransparent electrodes (glass/ITO or glass/Al) on the CuTCNQ/Cu. By choosing appropriate conditions for formation of the film in the liquid phase, for example solu...

The solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are facing serious problems due to unavoidable losses in their system, leads to more devation of output power from the input power level. This effect is known as a mismatch effect and is available in PV systems. Many losses are encountered in PV system and it is difficult to minimize such losses. In this paper, the influence of thermal effect on the solar PV ...

Abstract — This paper presents a mathematical modeling and simulation of a photovoltaic solar module. Mainly an accurate mathematical model for computing Maximum Power output of a photovoltaic PV module is presented. The model for PV panel is developed based on the single-diode photovoltaic model, found in the literature, including the effect of the series resistance. A typical 60 W photovoltai...

Zr-based bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are being studied widely in recent years due to their unique mechanical properties. In this paper, we will present the progress in the studies of corrosion resistance behavior and biomedical potential of the Zr-based BMGs, especially the in vitro and in vivo evaluation of their biocompatibility. Owing to their high resistance to corrosion in a physiological...

This paper presents a feedback-controlled, MEMS-fabricated microaccelerometer. The microaccelerometer has received much commercial attraction, but its performance is generally limited. To improve the open-loop performance, a feedback controller is designed and experimentally evaluated. The feedback controller is applied to the x/y-axis microaccelerometer fabricated by sacrificial bulk micromach...

Ultrafast relaxation dynamics of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films with embedded Ag nanoparticles (DLC:Ag) and photovoltaic properties of heterojunctions consisting of DLC:Ag and crystalline silicon (DLC:Ag/Si) were investigated by means of transient absorption (TAS) spectroscopy and photovoltaic measurements. The heterojunctions using both p type and n type silicon were studied. It was found tha...

The VISTA near-infrared Y JKs survey of the Magellanic Clouds System (VMC, PI M.-R. L. Cioni) is collecting deep Ks–band time–series photometry of the pulsating variable stars hosted in the system formed by the two Magellanic Clouds and the Bridge connecting them. In this paper we present for the first time Ks–band light curves for Anomalous Cepheid (AC) variables. In particular, we have analys...
