Deconstructing Solar Photovoltaic Pricing: The Role of Market Structure, Technology, and Policy
Authors: Gillingham Kenneth , Deng Hao , Wiser Ryan , Darghouth Naim , Nemet Gregory , Barbose Galen , Rai Varun , Dong Changgui
Published: August 2015

Solar photovoltaic (PV) system prices in the United States display considerable heterogeneity both across geographic locations and within a given location. Such heterogeneity may arise due to state and federal policies, differences in market structure, and other factors that influence demand and costs. This paper examines the relative importance of such factors on equilibrium solar PV system prices in the United States using a detailed dataset of roughly 100,000 recent residential and small commercial installations. As expected, we find that PV system prices differ based on characteristics of the systems. More interestingly, we find evidence suggesting that search costs and imperfect competition affect solar PV pricing.

Installer density substantially lowers prices, while regions with relatively generous financial incentives for solar PV are associated with higher prices.
A Book, a Securitate File, and a Research Project. On Gossiping and Ethnography
Authors: Thériault Barbara
Published: August 2015

Katherine Verdery’s latest book, an ethnography of the Archive of Romania’s Secret Police and the permission to copy and study a Securitate file, that of Iuliana, represents, for the author, the opportunity to write an unusual book review. Superposing the book and the file allows her to reflect on the work of secret police officers and that of ethnographers as well as questioning the practice of the sociological observer. As it turns out, the file adds a new dimension and an interpretation key to the book: beyond the importance of networks or social relationships as material secret police officers and ethnographers share, it discloses gossip as an empirical source and a recruitment technique. Centering on gossip helps the author in reformulating one of the book’s central arguments and delineating the contours of the “bourgeois,” a figure at the core of a new research project. The extreme character of the two cases at hand—material constituted toward a political end—sheds light on the relations ethnographers entertain to their informants as well as to dilemmas of research, which might otherwise remain unseen.
Ngn1 inhibits astrogliogenesis through induction of miR-9 during neuronal fate specification
Authors: Zhao Jing , Lin Quan , Kim Kevin J , Dardashti Faranak D , Kim Jennifer , He Fei , Sun Yi
Published: August 2015

It has been postulated that a proneural factor, neurogenin 1 (Ngn1), simultaneously activates the neurogenic program and inhibits the alternative astrogliogenic program when specifying the neuronal fate. While Ngn1 substantially suppresses the activation of the astrogliogenic Jak-Stat pathway, the underlying molecular mechanism was unknown. Here, by employing in vivo and in vitro approaches, we report that Ngn1 binds to the promoter of a brain-enriched microRNA, miR-9, and activates its expression during neurogenesis. Subsequently, our in vitro study showed that miR-9 directly targets mRNAs of Lifr-beta, Il6st (gp130), and Jak1 to down-regulate these critical upstream components of the Jak-Stat pathway, achieving inhibition of Stat phosphorylation and consequently, suppression of astrogliogenesis. This study revealed Ngn1 modulated non-coding RNA epigenetic regulation during cell fate specifications.

Published: August 2015

Numerous observations demonstrate that considerable spatial variability exists in components of the marine planktonic ecosystem at the mesoscale and submesoscale (100 km–1 km). The causes and consequences of physical processes at these scales (“eddy advection”) influencing biogeochemistry have received much attention. Less studied, the nonlinear nature of most ecological and biogeochemical interactions means that such spatial variability has consequences for regional estimates of processes including primary production and grazing, independent of the physical processes. This effect has been termed “eddy reactions.” Models remain our most powerful tools for extrapolating hypotheses for biogeochemistry to global scales and to permit future projections. The spatial resolution of most climate and global biogeochemical models means that processes at the mesoscale and submesoscale are poorly resolved. Modeling work has previously suggested that the neglected eddy reactions may be almost as large as the mean field estimates in some cases. This study seeks to quantify the relative size of eddy and mean reactions observationally, using in situ and satellite data. For primary production, grazing, and zooplankton mortality the eddy reactions are between 7% and 15% of the mean reactions. These should be regarded as preliminary estimates to encourage further observational estimates and not taken as a justification for ignoring eddy reactions. Compared to modeling estimates, there are inconsistencies in the relative magnitude of eddy reactions and in correlations which are a major control on their magnitude. One possibility is that models exhibit much stronger spatial correlations than are found in reality, effectively amplifying the magnitude of eddy reactions.
Coherent wave activity in Mercury's magnetosheath
Authors: Sundberg Torbjörn , Boardsen Scott A. , Burgess David , Slavin James A.
Published: August 2015

This study presents a statistical overview of coherent wave activity in Mercury's magnetosheath. Left‐handed electromagnetic ion cyclotron waves are commonly found behind the quasi‐perpendicular section of the bow shock, where they are present in ~50% of the spacecraft crossings of the magnetosheath. Their occurrence distribution maximizes within the magnetosheath, approximately halfway between the bow shock and the magnetopause, and the waves are generally strongly Doppler shifted up to frequencies above the local ion cyclotron frequency. Downstream of the quasi‐parallel shock, the magnetosheath often exhibits large‐amplitude pulsations with wave periods around 10 s and peak‐to‐peak amplitudes of up to 100 nT that dominate the magnetic field structure. These waves are circularly left‐hand polarized with wave vectors in the direction of the local shock normal. The data suggest that they have been generated upstream of the shock and transmitted into the downstream region. Their occurrence rates maximize at the near‐parallel shock, where they are present approximately 10% of the time, and where they also show their largest wave powers. Some evidence is also found of waves with a right‐handed polarization in the spacecraft frame. These consist of both whistler waves above the local ion cyclotron frequency and ion cyclotron waves propagating against the magnetosheath flow with Doppler shifts exceeding the intrinsic wave frequency, which results in a change in their apparent polarization. These waves are in minority compared to the left‐handed observations, which indicates a preference for ion cyclotron waves propagating in the direction of the plasma flow.

Authors: Li Menghuan , Teh Cathleen , Ang Chung Yen , Tan Si Yu , Luo Zhong , Qu Qiuyu , Zhang Yuanyuan , Korzh Vladimir , Zhao Yanli
Published: August 2015

Although near‐infrared (NIR) light‐absorbing organic dyes have recently been proposed for photothermal ablation of tumors, their clinical applications have often been hampered by problems such as low water solubility and minimal tissue absorption. Rapid development of nanotechnology provides various novel nanostructures to address these issues. In this work, doxorubicin (DOX)‐loaded stealth liposomes are engineered through the incorporation of an NIR‐absorptive heptamethine indocyanine dye IR825 into the thermoresponsive liposomes for photothermal/chemo combined cancer therapy. It is demonstrated that the lipid nanostructure can enhance the bioavailability of water‐insoluble IR825 for efficient photothermal treatment, while delivering the anticancer drug doxorubicin to achieve simultaneous anticancer medication. The combined treatment of photothermal ablation and chemotherapy synergistically improves the overall cancer cell killing efficiency, which can be of future clinical interest.

Authors: Ji Junyi , Li Yang , Peng Wenchao , Zhang Guoliang , Zhang Fengbao , Fan Xiaobin
Published: August 2015

The increasing demand for energy has triggered tremendous research effort for the development of high‐performance and durable energy‐storage devices. Advanced graphene‐based electrodes with high electrical conductivity and ion accessibility can exhibit superior electrochemical performance in energy‐storage devices. Among them, binder‐free configurations can enhance the electron conductivity of the electrode, which leads to a higher capacity by avoiding the addition of non‐conductive and inactive binders. Graphene, a 2D material, can be fabricated into a porous and flexible structure with an interconnected conductive network. Such a conductive structure is favorable for both electron and ion transport to the entire electrode surface. In this review, the main processes used to prepare binder‐free graphene‐based hybrids with high porosity and well‐designed electron conductive networks are summarized. Then, the applications of free‐standing binder‐free graphene‐based electrodes in energy‐storage devices are discussed. Future research aspects with regard to overcoming the technological bottlenecks are also proposed.
Substrate Engineering and its Synthetic Utility in the Sulfation of Primary Aliphatic Alcohol Groups by a Bacterial Arylsulfotransferase
Authors: Hartog Aloysius F. , Wever Ron
Published: August 2015

The use of substrate engineering allowed the enzymatic sulfation by an arylsulfotransferase from Desulfitobacterium hafniense of a number of carbohydrate derivatives. Specific sulfation of carbohydrates chemically or enzymatically is notoriously difficult or complex. As we have shown previously, the arylsulfotransferase is able to sulfate a variety of phenolic alcohols as well as non‐phenolic alcohols, albeit the conversion in the latter case is limited and in general less than a few percent. Here we used the strategy of substrate engineering to increase the conversion by attaching a hydrophobic group to the carbohydrate. The formed sulfated intermediates may be used as building blocks in the formation of more complex sulfated carbohydrates via a transglycosylation reaction.

Understanding the degradation and failure mechanisms of organic photovoltaic devices is a key requirement for this technology to mature toward a reliable product. Here, an investigation on accelerated temperature and moisture long‐term stability testing (>20 000 h) of inverted and glass‐encapsulated poly(3‐hexylthiophene)/phenyl‐C61‐butyric acid methyl ester solar cells is presented. The degradation kinetics is analyzed using the Arrhenius model and the resulting activation energy for the diffusion of water is measured to be ≈43 kJ mol−1. Through comparison of electroluminescence imaging, lock‐in thermography, and photoluminescence mapping, the device performance is correlated with the loss of effective cell area and it is shown that the reaction of water at the hole extraction/active layer interface is likely to be the dominant cause for long‐term device failure. The diffusion of water through the packaged solar cell is described using classical diffusion theory. Based on an analytical solution of a simple diffusion model, the diffusion coefficient is estimated to be 4 × 10−12 m2 s−1. A shelf life of 100 000 h is anticipated at 65 °C/85% RH using a 9.3 cm wide protective adhesive rim. The findings of this study may inform strategies for predicting lifetimes of organic solar cells and modules based on local in situ tracking of moisture‐induced device performance loss using IR imaging.

Insights into Carbopol gel formulations: Microscopy analysis of the microstructure and the influence of polyol additives
Authors: Lefrançois Pauline , Ibarboure Emmanuel , Payré Bruno , Gontier Etienne , Le Meins Jean‐François , Schatz Christophe
Published: August 2015

Carbopol is a family of high molecular weight cross‐linked poyacrylic acids widely used as thickening agents in several industrial applications. In this work, the structure of Carbopol 974P NF was investigated at pH 7.4 by means of capillary viscometry, dynamic rheology, fluorescence microscopy, and electron microscopy in the dilute and semi‐dilute (hydrogel) state. Especially, high‐pressure freezing technique has proved to be a technique of choice to visualize the Carbopol hydrogel microstructure through cryo‐scanning electron microscopy analysis without artifacts related to the formation of ice crystals. It has been shown that the Carbopol hydrogel has a hierarchical structure made of large spherical entities of a few micrometers in size packed together and composed of much smaller agglomerated microgel particles. In addition, fluorescence and electron microscopies have pointed out that the presence of polyol additives in the gel formulation favors the formation of more dense or jammed structure, probably through hydrogen bonding. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Development of microbial protective Kolliphor‐based nanocomposite hydrogels
Authors: Varaprasad Kokkarachedu , Sadiku Rotimi
Published: August 2015

In this scientific work, a novel class of antimicrobial nanocomposite hydrogels were designed and synthesized by chemical and environmentally bioprocess using Kolliphor, acrylamide, and mint leafs in order to achieve antiseptic property for wound applications. In the bioprocess approach, silver nitrate and gold chloride were nucleated with mint leafs in order to obtain effective free individual nano‐inorganic compounds to provide superior antibacterial assets. The formations of dual inorganic nanoparticles were confirmed by transmission electron microscopy, which indicated the size of nanoparticles in the range of approximately 3 ± 2 nm and without agglomeration. The formations of biomaterials were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopic–energy dispersive spectrometric studies and their swelling properties were determined. Furthermore, the pure hydrogel and the dual inorganic nanocomposite hydrogels developed were tested for antibacterial activities. When compared with the neat hydrogel, the nanocomposite hydrogels significantly improved their anti‐bacterial activities on Bacillus bacterium. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Efficient wound odor removal by β‐cyclodextrin functionalized poly (ε‐caprolactone) nanofibers
Authors: Narayanan Ganesh , Ormond Bryan R. , Gupta Bhupender S. , Tonelli Alan E.
Published: August 2015

Polymer‐cyclodextrin (CD) composite nanofibers, by virtue of the hollow cavities and abundant hydroxyl groups present in CDs, have tremendous potential in a variety of biomedical applications. However, in most cases, especially in aliphatic polyesters, polymer chains thread readily into CD cavities, therefore its potential has not yet been fully realized. Herein, we report the formation of poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL)/β‐CD functional nanofibers by electrospinning their mixture from chloroform/N,N‐dimethylformamide (60 : 40). The fiber diameters of the neat PCL and β‐CD functionalized fibers were measured from the images obtained from a scanning electron microscope and were found to be about 500 nm. The efficiency of wound odor absorbance by these composite fibers was studied using a simulated wound odor solution, consisting of butyric and propionic acids in ethanol. Immersion tests indicated that even under less than ideal test conditions, the nanofibers containing β‐CDs were very efficient in masking the odor. The odor masking capability of the β‐CD functionalized PCL nanofibers were further confirmed by thermogravimetric analyses and GC observations, with the former method showing unique degradation patterns. The PCL/β‐CD nanocomposites, by virtue of having their β‐CD cavities free and unthreaded by PCL, could potentially be an ideal substrate for removing wound odors through formation of inclusion compounds with odorants, while providing an ideal environment for the wound to heal. These results suggest tailoring polymer‐CD nanostructures for specific applications in wound odor absorbance, surface grafting of chemical moieties, and vehicles for drug delivery, as examples. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ultrastructural Features of Sperm Storage Tubules in the Oviduct of the Indian Garden Lizard, Calotes Versicolor
Authors: Shankar Goutham , Sagar Bhadravathi Kenchappa Chandrasekhar , Kumari Titus Ruth Shantha , Marathe Gopal Kedihithlu
Published: August 2015

This study provides the first description of the ultrastructural features of sperm storage tubules (SSTs) in the uterovaginal region of the oviduct of the Indian garden lizard, Calotes versicolor. Abundant spermatozoa along with copious secretory material were found in the lumen of the SSTs. These secretory granules appeared similar in electron density to those found in the epithelial cells lining the SSTs indicating their similar origin. The close physical proximity of sperm with these granules suggests an intimate association between the two. The present study is also the first report of recovery of motile sperm from the flushings of SSTs in C. versicolor. The density of sperm found in the flushings varied, being most abundant during the reproductive phase and minimum/absent during the regressive phase. Understanding the microenvironment of the SSTs, the nature of the secretory granules and their interaction with sperm can guide us in unraveling the biology of oviductal sperm storage.

Percutaneous closure of post TAVR LV apical pseudoaneurysm
Authors: Feldman Ted , Pearson Paul , Smart Steven S.
Published: August 2015

Left ventricular (LV) apical pseudoaneurysm is a well known complication of myocardial infarction and open heart surgery procedures, and has more recently been described after transapical transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Since the natural history includes a high incidence of cardiac rupture and mortality in the 30–45% range within the first year after diagnosis, surgical repair has been the main therapy. More recently, LV pseudoaneurysms have been closed using percutaneous methods. We describe a post‐TAVR pseudoaneurysm for which closure was done via retrograde LV access using a vascular plug, and provide a review of recent literature on closure methods and outcomes. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: August 2015

The assembly of imidazole‐functionalized phenanthroline‐strapped zinc porphyrins (ZnPorphen) with alkyl or polyethylene glycol (PEG) side chains was studied in solution and by AFM after casting on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) or mica. The nature of the solvent and its evaporation time influenced the morphology of the objects observed. On HOPG, short rods of about 100 nm were observed after fast evaporation of solutions of the alkyl derivatives in CHCl3, THF, or pyridine, whereas islands of aligned rows of longer wires were obtained from methylcyclohexane (MCH). Slow evaporation of MCH led to a three‐dimensional assembly. The PEG porphyrin assembled into short wires on HOPG or fibers on mica after slow evaporation of solutions in THF. This study shows the role of surface–molecule interactions in the interfacial assembly of ZnPorphen derivatives and contributes to understanding the parameters that control their noncovalent assembly into molecular wires on a surface.
PSYCHE CPMG–HSQMBC: An NMR Spectroscopic Method for Precise and Simple Measurement of Long‐Range Heteronuclear Coupling Constants
Authors: Timári István , Szilágyi László , Kövér Katalin E.
Published: August 2015

Among the NMR spectroscopic parameters, long‐range heteronuclear coupling constants convey invaluable information on torsion angles relevant to glycosidic linkages of carbohydrates. A broadband homonuclear decoupled PSYCHE CPMG–HSQMBC method for the precise and direct measurement of multiple‐bond heteronuclear couplings is presented. The PSYCHE scheme built into the pulse sequence efficiently eliminates unwanted proton–proton splittings from the heteronuclear multiplets so that the desired heteronuclear couplings can be determined simply by measuring frequency differences between peak maxima of pure antiphase doublets. Moreover, PSYCHE CPMG–HSQMBC can provide significant improvement in sensitivity as compared to an earlier Zangger–Sterk‐based method. Applications of the proposed pulse sequence are demonstrated for the extraction of nJ(1H,77Se) and nJ(1H,13C) values, respectively, in carbohydrates; further extensions can be envisioned in any J‐based structural and conformational studies.
