Judul: Dinamika Populasi Larva Nyamuk Aedes spp. di Kelurahan Bantarjati Kota Bogor
Abstrak: Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is caused by dengue virus. The virus is transmitted to humans through the bites of Aedes aegypti and Ae. albopictus as the primary vector dengue. The aim of this research to observed population dynamics of Aedes spp. mosquito larval related to rainfall index correlated breteau index (BI). This research was conducted in April until July 2012 in DHF endemic area Bantarjati Subdistrict Bogor City. The larval collected in containers indoor and outdoor were 396 containers from 200 households. The result showed that the density of larval population in Bantarjati Subdistrict were belonged to the moderate category according to density figure (DF) in the rate of 2−5 (WHO 1972). Ae. aegypti larval were also found in indoor containers (8.81%) and Ae. albopictus in outdoor containers (34.33%). The BI average was the best indicator to describe the density of larval population. In this research, BI average was significantly correlated (p<0.05) to the rainfall index of Bogor during April−July 2012.

Abstrak: Bantarjati subdistrict is an area that has the highest dengue cases in the city of Bogor during 2007 to 2011. The purpose of this research was to observe the behavior of biting and resting Aedes spp. Mosquito collection was done by human landing collection and resting collection from 08.00 to 17.00 in Bantarjati subdistrict during April−July 2012. The results showed that Aedes aegypti was more active indoor the house (0.24 mosquito/person/hour) than outdoor (0.16 mosquito/person/hour) with the biting activity occurred at 10.00−11.00 (0.42 mosquito/person/hour) and at 16.00−17.00 (0.21 mosquito/person/hour). While Ae. albopictus was more active outdoor the house (0.18 mosquito/person/hour) than indoor (0.05 mosquito/person/hour) with the biting activity occurred at 10.00−11.00 (0.42 mosquito/person/hour) and at 14.00−15.00 (0.17 mosquito/person/hour). Ae. aegypti was found resting more indoor the house (0.03 mosquito/house) than outdoor (0.02 mosquito/house), while Ae. albopictus was found resting more outdoor the house (0.01 mosquito/house) than indoor (0.00 mosquito/home). The result of Pearson’s correlation analysis showed that the relationship between the rainfall index with the density of Ae. aegypti (r=0.94, P>0.05), and Ae. albopictus (r=0:49, P>0.05).

Judul: Pembuatan Film Tipis Cu2ZnSnS4 sebagai Lapisan Penyerap Cahaya pada Sel Surya Menggunakan Metode Elektrodeposisi
Abstrak: Thin film of Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) is an alternative semiconductor used as light absorber layer on solar cell. CZTS can replace silicon that commonly used as commercial semiconductor. The advantage of using CZTS as absorber layer is due to the abundance of its chemical composer on earth, and its high value of absorption coefficient. The absorber layer was made by using electrodeposition method on ITO glass substrates. The films were deposited at room temperature using potentiostatic mode with a potential of –1.05 V for 30, 45, and 60 minutes. After that, the films were annealed at two different temperatures, 180 ºC and 500 °C, for 45 minutes in N2/H2S atmosphere. Based on X-ray diffraction analysis, the polycrystalline thin film obtained fall into kesterite crystal phase. This type of crystal was obtained when the CZTS was annealed at 500 °C in H2S/N2 atmosphere. The value of optical band gap energy for the CZTS thin film was 2.2 eV with the film thickness about 1.228–6.366 μm. The sample of CZTS with electrodeposition time of 45 minutes and annealing temperature of 500 °C showed the best result and in conformity with absorber layers criteria for solar cells.
