Flexible and Ultrasoft Inorganic 1D Semiconductor and Heterostructure Systems...Pawan Kumar
Low dimensionality and high flexibility are key demands for flexible electronic semiconductor devices. SnIP, the first atomic-scale double helical semiconductor combines structural anisotropy and robustness with exceptional electronic properties. The benefit of the double helix, combined with a diverse structure on the nanoscale, ranging from strong covalent bonding to weak van der Waals interactions, and the large structure and property anisotropy offer substantial potential for applications in energy conversion and water splitting. It represents the next logical step in downscaling the inorganic semiconductors from classical 3D systems, via 2D semiconductors like MXenes or transition metal dichalcogenides, to the first downsizeable, polymer-like atomic-scale 1D semiconductor SnIP. SnIP shows intriguing mechanical properties featuring a bulk modulus three times lower than any IV, III-V, or II-VI semiconductor. In situ bending tests substantiate that pure SnIP fibers can be bent without an effect on their bonding properties. Organic and inorganic hybrids are prepared illustrating that SnIP is a candidate to fabricate flexible 1D composites for energy conversion and water splitting applications. SnIP@C3N4 hybrid forms an unusual soft material core–shell topology with graphenic carbon nitride wrapping around SnIP. A 1D van der Waals heterostructure is formed capable of performing effective water splitting.
Fabrication and Characterization of 2D Titanium Carbide MXene NanosheetsBecker Budwan
Typically, 2D free-standing crystals exhibit different properties from those of 3D counterparts. In this work, 2D nanosheets of Ti3C2 are synthesized by the room temperature exfoliation of Ti3AlC2 in hydrofluoric acid. Al is extracted from Ti3AlC2 and a new 2D material that we call MXene is formed to emphasize its graphene-like morphology. The treated powders can be used in the fabrication of Li-ion batteries and capacitors. A NSEM image of the treated powder shows the influence of HF treatment on the basal planes. Furthermore, XRD results shows the broadening of the peaks and loss of diffraction signal in the out-of-plane direction owing to exfoliation.

Tuning the Ionic and Dielectric Properties of Electrospun Nanocomposite Fiber...IJERA Editor
This study reports the fabrication and characterization of electrospun polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF)and
polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) nanofiber separators embedded with carbon black nanoparticles. Different weight
percentages (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4wt%) of carbon black nanoparticles were dispersed in N, Ndimethylacetamide
(DMAC) and ethanol using sonication and high-speed agitations, and then PVdF and PVP
polymers were added to the dispersions prior to the mixing and electrospinning processes. The morphological,
dielectric constant, ionic conductivity, and surface hydrophobic properties of the PVdF/PVP nanofiber
separators were analyzed using various techniques. SEM micrograms showed that the fiber diameter was
around 100-200 nm. The ionic conductivity test clearly revealed a significant increase in conductivity valueof
4.28 x 10-4
S/cm for 4 wt. % carbon black loading. However, the contact angle values were decreased with
increasing weight percent of carbon black particles. The dielectric constant was increased with the carbon black
loading. As can be seen, overall physical properties of the nanocomposite separators were significantly
enhanced as a function of carbon black inclusions, which may be useful for supercapacitor separators and other
energy storage devices
LaSiO 3 Cl:Ce 3+ ,Tb 3+ and Mg 2 TiO 4 :Mn 4+ : quantum dot phosphors for im...IJECEIAES
In this research, we focus on the solutions to enhance the lighting properties as well as the heat regulation of the white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) with conventional phosphor and quantum dots (QDs). Although receiving lots of attention for being an innovative lighting solution with good color rendering index, the potentials of WLEDs conjugated with quantum dots (QDS), especially the QDs-phosphor mixed nanocomposites ones, are restrained due to the lacking performance in the aspects mentioned above. The crucial requirement to produce better WLEDs is finding solutions that improve the lacking aspects, therefore, through observing previous studies and applying advanced technique, this research suggest an effective and unique packaging configuration, in which the nanocomposites QDs-phosphor layer is set horizontally to the WLED. This novel packaging configuration allow WLED performance in terms of lighting and heating to reach it peaks. This is the first time four different types of WLEDs, singlelayer phosphor, dual-layer remote phosphor with yellow-red and yellow-green, and triple-layer phosphor, were simulated, utilized and compared in one study to decide the best WLED configuration. The results show that the triple-layer phosphor configurations improve the color rendering ability and lumen output better than the other configurations.
Planar Microwave Sensors for Accurate Measurement of Material Characterizatio...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Microwave sensor is used in various industrial applications and requires highly accurate
measurements for material properties. Conventionally, cavity waveguide perturbation, free-space
transmission, open-ended coaxial probe, and planar transmission line technique have been used for
characterizing materials. However, these planar transmission lines are often large and expensive to build,
further restricting their use in many important applications. Thus, this technique is cost effective, easy to
manufacture and due to its compact size, it has the potential to produce sensitivity and a high Q-factor for
various materials. This paper reviews the common characteristics of planar transmission line and
discusses numerous studies about several designs of the microstrip resonator to improve the sensor
performance in terms of the sensitivity and accuracy. This technique enables its use for several industrial
applications such as agriculture and quality control. It is believed that previous studies would lead to a
promising solution of characterizing materials with high sensitivity, particularly in determining a high Qfactor
resonator sensor.
Remarkable self-organization and unusual conductivity behavior in cellulose n...Pawan Kumar
Aqueous suspensions of cellulose nanocrystals were blended with Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) [PEDOT:PSS], and cast into thin films. The morphology, structure and electrical properties of the resulting nanocomposite thin films were thoroughly characterized. We found that the CNC–PEDOT:PSS blends self-organize into a layered vertical stack with a pitch of 100–200 nm while retaining a continuous percolation network for PEDOT. Atomic force microscopy, dynamic light scattering and multi-angle light scattering measurements confirmed the wrapping of polymer chains around the rod-like CNCs. The blended films exhibited improved molecular ordering of the PEDOT chains with concomitant improvement in the carrier mobility. The remarkable self-organization and enhanced structural order enabled the CNC–PEDOT:PSS blends to exhibit a high conductivity typical of PEDOT:PSS even when the content of the insulating CNCs in the nanocomposite was as high as 50 wt%.
Space charges analysis on insulator with uniform layer contamination effectTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
High voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission provides an attractive alternative for bulk power transfer. However, HVDC transmission may have loss about half per unit length of high voltage alternating current (HVAC) at the same amount of power carried. This is due to the space charge formation around the conductor in HVDC cables. It is known that the presence of space charge inside an insulator may distort the local electric field and surface energy. This paper investigates the effect of electrostatics for space charge, electric field and surface energy in the HVDC cable in clean and contaminated conditions. The effect of uniform layer contamination from oil, sandstone and fresh water was conducted on 11 kV XLPE cable using finite element software under electrostatics study. The contamination layer was created around the XLPE cable by multifarious the radius of layer contamination from the conductor. The simulation results show that enlargement of contamination layer radius by 1.0 mm (light), 1.5 mm (medium) and 2.0 mm (heavy) resulted in the reduction of surface energy by 20% and electric field by 22% but increase the space charge amplitude by 76%. The study also found that fresh water can be considered as the worst contamination compared to oil and sandstone.
This paper presents a Dye sensitized solar cell (DYSSC), which is called as future generation solar cell. It is a
new class of green photovoltaic cell based on photosynthesis principle in nature. DYSSCs are fabricated using
two different natural dyes as sensitizers, which extracted from the materials existing in nature and our life, such
as flowers, leaves, fruits, traditional Chinese medicines, and beverages. The use of sensitizers having a broad
absorption band in conjunction with oxide films of nanocrystalline morphology permits to harvest a large
fraction of sunlight. There are good prospects to produce these cells at lower cost and much better efficiency
than conventional semiconductor devices by introducing various chemical and natural dyes. DYSSC are
implemented with simple and new technique to overcome the energy crisis and excess cost of semiconductor
solar cells.

Multifunctional materials for clean energy conversionDevika Laishram
With the rapid depletion of fossil fuels, rising environmental concerns,
and population growth, it is inevitable to develop clean energy technologies
to power our future society [1e4]. These energy conversion and storage
technologies are anticipated to be sustainable and also capable of meeting
our long-term energy needs. During the past few years, extensive research

a country. Particularly, the energy conversion technologies such as solar

Properties of electrodeposited semiconductor thin films are dependent upon the electrolyte composition, plating time, and temperature as well as the current density and the nature of the substrate. In this study, the influence of electrodeposition parameters such as deposition voltage, deposition time, composition of solution, and deposition temperature upon the properties of In2S3 films were analyzed by the Taguchi Method. According to Taguchi analysis, the interaction between deposition voltage and deposition time was significant. Deposition voltage had the most impact upon the stoichiometry of In2S3 films and deposition temperature had the least impact. The stochiometric ratios between sulfur and indium (S/In : 3/2) obtained from experiments performed with optimized electrodeposition paramters were in agreement with predicted values from the Taguchi Method. The experiments were carried-out according to Taguchi Orthogonal Array L27 (3^4) Design of Experiments (DOE). Approximately 600 nm-thick In2S3 films were electrodeposited from an organic bath (ethylene glycol-based) containing indium chloride (InCl3), sodium chloride (NaCl), and sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3.5H2O), the latter used as an additional sulfur source along with elemental sulfur (S). An X-ray diffractometer (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) unit, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were respectively used to analyze the phases, elemental composition, and morphology of the electrodeposited In2S3 films.
The electrical and environmental parameters of polymer solar cells (PSC) provide important information on their performance. In the present article we study the influence of temperature on the voltage-current (I-V) characteristic at different temperatures from 10 °C to 90 °C, and important parameters like bandgap energy Eg, and the energy conversion efficiency η. The one-diode electrical model, normally used for semiconductor cells, has been tested and validated for the polemeral junction. The PSC used in our study are formed by the poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and [6,6]-phenyl C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM). Our technique is based on the combination of two steps; the first use the Least Mean Squares (LMS) method while the second use the Newton-Raphson algorithm. The found results are compared to other recently published works, they show that the developed approach is very accurate. This precision is proved by the minimal values of statistical errors (RMSE) and the good agreement between both the experimental data and the I-V simulated curves. The obtained results show a clear and a monotonic dependence of the cell efficiency on the studied parameters.

Multifunctional carbon nitride nanoarchitectures for catalysisPawan Kumar
Catalysis is at the heart of modern-day chemical and pharmaceutical industries, and there is an urgent demand to develop metal-free, high surface area, and efficient catalysts in a scalable, reproducible and economic manner. Amongst the ever-expanding two-dimensional materials family, carbon nitride (CN) has emerged as the most researched material for catalytic applications due to its unique molecular structure with tunable visible range band gap, surface defects, basic sites, and nitrogen functionalities. These properties also endow it with anchoring capability with a large number of catalytically active sites and provide opportunities for doping, hybridization, sensitization, etc. To make considerable progress in the use of CN as a highly effective catalyst for various applications, it is critical to have an in-depth understanding of its synthesis, structure and surface sites. The present review provides an overview of the recent advances in synthetic approaches of CN, its physicochemical properties, and band gap engineering, with a focus on its exclusive usage in a variety of catalytic reactions, including hydrogen evolution reactions, overall water splitting, water oxidation, CO2 reduction, nitrogen reduction reactions, pollutant degradation, and organocatalysis. While the structural design and band gap engineering of catalysts are elaborated, the surface chemistry is dealt with in detail to demonstrate efficient catalytic performances. Burning challenges in catalytic design and future outlook are elucidated.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

ε*, and is the combination of a real component, called the relative
permittivity or dielectric constant, ε’, and an imaginary component,
called the dielectric loss or dissipation factor, ε’’. This form, also
called the complex dielectric permittivity, is defined by the formula
(1):
ε^*=ε^’-jε’’ (1)
Dielectric constant (ε’) is a critical electrical parameter for a
microelectronic polymer dielectric. The magnitude of ε’ depends
on the amount of mobile (polarizable) electrical charges and
the degree of mobility of these charges in the material. Because
the charge mobility depends on temperature, ε’ is temperature
dependent, and since polarization of the material requires a finite
amount of time, the frequency of the electric field also influences
the measured dielectric constant. The lower the dielectric constant,
the faster the signal propagation velocity, as given by the Equation
(2):
Vp
=c/(√ε^’ ) (2)
Where Vp
is the velocity of propagation and c is the speed of
light. A lower dielectric constant allows for wider signal traces and
a decrease in the dielectric thickness. It also allows a designer to
maintain the same characteristic impedance while lowering the
line resistance and crosstalk [9].
Inorganic materials/ceramics show high dielectric constant
than polymers. It possesses ions and polar functional groups
intrinsically and contributes to their high dielectric constant.
Both polymer dielectrics with low and high dielectric constant are
essentialinelectronicindustries.Lowdielectricconstantisrequired
basically as insulators and preferably useful in designing integrated
circuits (IC). High ε’ materials are used as polarizable media for
capacitors, and in apparatus such as rectifiers and semiconductor
devices, piezoelectric transducers, dielectric amplifiers, and
memory elements [10].
Recently, Gao et al. [11] has designed pH-responsive dielectric
hydrogels with improved mechanical and dielectric properties.
The properties and classical applications of polyelectrolytes are
being outspreading in the last few years by the introduction of
dielectric materials into the polymer matrix. These new materials
are being developed due to the scientific and technological interest
in the field of stretchable electronics [12,13]. The field of dielectric
hydrogels has expanded over the past few decades and has become
fundamental to the science of polymer technology, the intriguing
properties and the wide range technological interests has been an
ever increasing stimulus to fully focus on specialized applications
[14] and thus promising candidates for energy storage applications.
