description: Xanthotis flaviventer watsoni Mathews Xanthotis flaviventer watsoni Mathews, 1917: 71 (Watson River, North Queensland). Now Xanthotis flaviventer filiger (Gould, 1851). See Salomonsen, 1967: 388, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 227–228, Christidis and Boles, 2008: 185–191, and Higgins et al., 2008: 689– 690. HOLOTYPE: AMNH 696194, female, collected on the Watson River, 13.20S, 141.47E (USBGN, 1957), northern Queensland, Australia, on 3 July 1914. From the Mathews Collection via the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: Mathews apparently had two specimens of flaviventer from the Watson River and, in the original description, designated the specimen collected on 3 July 1914 as the type. He mentioned no other locality and did not catalog these specimens. The paratype in AMNH is: AMNH 696193, male juvenile, collected on 16 July 1914. Both of these specimens surely were collected by W.R. McLennan who was collecting for W.D.K. MacGillivray (1917: 76–79) on the Watson River in July 1914. The handwriting on both labels appears to be that of McLennan and the legs are tied together above the tibiotarsal joint, as is frequently characteristic of his specimens. MacGillivray (1918: 206–207, under Xanthotis filigera) said: ‘‘Mr. M’Lennan noted a few on the Archer.’’ The Watson River is a tributary of the Archer.

description: Increased efficiency of industrial standard solar cells can be realized on thin (<150 μm) mc-Si wafers
by improving the rear surface with a dielectric passivation and local contacts. In this paper, we are presenting the
successful implementation of an industrially feasible process sequence optimized for multi-crystalline silicon wafers
including a passivation layer system and local contacts by using conventional metallization pastes. This process sequence
allows for the effective utilization of less than 150 μm thin wafers. An increase of up to 1.0 mA/cm² in short circuit
current density and up to 10 mV in open circuit voltage of cells with passivated rear side compared to standard full area
contacted solar cells was reached. Owing to this, a gain of nearly 0.5%abs. in efficiency was achieved. In total, mc-Si solar
cells with best efficiencies of 18.5% (confirmed by CalLab ISE) with an open circuit voltage of 643 mV and a short
circuit current density of 36.7 mA/cm² have been fabricated in an industrial pilot line environment. The most favorable
surface properties, pre-conditioning of the rear side and passivation layer system were identified.

description: Mach-Zehnder interferometry has been proposed as a probe for detecting the statistics of anyonic quasiparticles in fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states. Here we focus on interferometers made of multimode edge states with upstream modes. We find that the interference visibility is suppressed due to downstream-upstream mode entanglement; the latter serves as a "which path" detector to the downstream interfering trajectories. Our analysis tackles a concrete realization of filling factor 2/3, but its applicability goes beyond that specific case, and encompasses the recent observation of ubiquitous emergence of upstream neutral modes in FQH states. The latter, according to our analysis, goes hand in hand with the failure to observe Mach-Zehnder anyonic interference in fractional states. We point out how charge-neutral mode disentanglement will resuscitate the interference signal.

description: This paper gives an insight into the effects of different wet chemical cleaning procedures prior to the
silicon nitride deposition. The investigation of different emitters (with respect to sheet resistances and diffusion
methods) showed the same cell parameter trends concerning different cleaning treatments. It was also found that
cleanings with a strong influence on the cell parameters lead to pronounced changes in the emitter sheet resistance as
well. This makes emitter material abrasion a likely candidate for an explanation of the observed effects on cell level.
Combining cell results with internal quantum efficiencies, sheet resistance measurements and spreading resistance
analyses allow for a first estimation concerning valuable combinations of emitters and cleanings.

Large PV Power Plants and High Penetration of Distributed PV: System Aspects and Grid Integration

description: 25th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition / 5th World Conference on Photovoltaic Energy Conversion, 6-10 September 2010, Valencia, Spain; 4980-4982
description: The fluctuation of Photovoltaic (PV) system is one of the most important grid connected issues with
dissemination of large amount of PV systems. In grid issues, the short time fluctuation of PV system such as from
2minute to 20 minute was influence on the controlling the frequency in the utility grid. PV system is, however,
installed as distributed system, and in fact residential PV systems have been dominated in the Japanese market and
installation capacity. In the circumstance, the fluctuation of a PV system must not be synchronized with the other PV
systems, and then the total fluctuation of clustered PV system in a large area is getting much smaller than a PV
system’s fluctuation. This phenomenon has been called by “a smoothing effect”.
In this paper, the smoothing effect is evaluated by means of three fluctuation parameter, maximum deviation width,
deviation of moving average, and Furrier analysis. Moreover, the monitoring data in a large area, around 100km
radius area, is applied for the grid connected issues, and monitored data of 13 PV sites in Kanto and Kansai Area are
used in order to evaluation results are indicated to be basic statistic value and distribution.

description: The heterojunction crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cell is one of the most promising cell structures for highperformance
and low-cost solar electricity generation. Simple devices based on ZnO/a-Si:H/c-Si/metal heterostructures had
been realized by low temperature PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) of amorphous silicon thin film on
p-type crystalline silicon wafers. The effects of SiF4 and N2 plasma treatments of the c-Si surface, and of an interface
intrinsic a-Si.H layer have been investigated. Optical properties of the deposited intrinsic and emitter layers have been
analyzed by spectroscopic ellipsometry. Devices have been characterized by I-V (both dark and light), and quantum yield
(QY) measurements. A conversion efficiency of 14.1% on a 1 cm2 area has been achieved without any optimization of
emitter thickness and doping.

description: With the intention to reduce front side recombination in silicon solar cells we developed a robust
selective emitter sequence close to the standard manufacturing process. A two-step diffusion utilizing structured
phosphorus silicate glass as a dopant source allows the independent optimization of the two emitter regions. Between
the metal grid lines, the surface dopant concentration has been reduced significantly which resulted in an open circuit
voltage increase of 8 mV. Beneath the front side conductor, the typical kink-and-tail profile with high surface
concentration is kept to ensure low contact resistance. Compared to the reference group, fill factor and voltage
enhancement add up to 0.15 %abs efficiency gain. Further potential is held in the short circuit current. Twodimensional
Sentaurus simulations confirmed that with an optimized surface passivation, the developed doping
profiles will result not only in an increased voltage but also in a larger current.

description: Um den Skeptizismus zu kritisieren, hat Hilary Putnam für sprachphilosophischen Kontextualismus plädiert und behauptet, dass bestimmte Sätze wie z.B. "Die Kutsche verwandelte sich in einen Kürbis" unverständlich seien. Dass man darauf bestehen sollte, derartige Sätze in ihrem Kontext zu betrachten, bestreite ich nicht. Und Putnam hat recht, dass es nicht ganz einfach ist, ihren Wert für die Kommunikation in konkreten Situationen sichtbar zu machen. Es genügt nicht, ihren intendierten Sinn in abstracto herauszuarbeiten, durch Verweis auf irgendeinen genuin philosophischen Theoriekontext. Andererseits scheinen wir solche Sätze zu verstehen; wir halten sie für falsch. Wie ist das möglich? Ich versuche zu zeigen, dass sich der Sinn solcher Sätze im Strom des Lebens bemerkbar machen kann – nämlich dann, wenn wir sie ernst nehmen. Meiner Ansicht nach eignen sie sich, um dem gelingenden Leben näher zu kommen. Wenn das richtig ist, so ergibt sich daraus auch ein neues Verständnis dessen, wozu Skeptizismus über die Gleichförmigkeit der Natur da sein könnte.
description: In his critique of skepticism, Hilary Putnam argues in favour of linguistic contextualism à la Wittgenstein; Putnam claims that without context we do not understand sentences such as "The coach turned into a pumpkin". I agree; we are well-advised to consider such sentences within their context. It is not easy to show how those sentences might contribute anything to our communication. Indeed it does not suffice to spell out their intended sense, or meaning, merely in abstracto—by invoking a genuinely philosophical context. On the other hand, we seem to understand those sentences. How is that possible? I try to show that their sense and meaning get noticed in the stream of life—as soon as we start taking them seriously. We should meditate how it would really look like, and what it would mean to us, if these sentences were to become true. Why should we engage ourselves in this strange meditation exercise? Because it contributes to the flourishing of our life. If that's right, it opens a new understanding of the raison d'être of skepticism about the uniformity of nature.

description: An electret is a dielectric material exhibiting a quasi-permanent electrical charge. An electret of silicon
dioxide on silicon offers the dual advantages of excellent chemical and field-effect passivation. It is thus ideally
suited to the passivation of high-efficiency silicon solar cells. We engineer an electret of SiO2 was engineered via a
simple process of corona charging and rapid thermal annealing (RTA). The initially surface-located charge is
redistributed into energetically deeper states, where it is resistant to IPA rinse. Photoconductance lifetime
measurements confirm this phenomenon. In addition, it is found that the passivation provided by the SiO2 electrets
did not degrade any more rapidly than the passivation provided by uncharged SiO2 when exposed to (i) a room
environment and (ii) a damp-heat environment over a period of months. The magnitude of charge is determined by
combined Kelvin probe and capacitance-voltage measurements – it depends on charging time, and is adjustable
between ~2 and 5×1012 cm-2; this positive charge density is equivalent to that regularly measured in amorphous SiNx.
Improved Moore-Penrose continuation algorithm for the computation of problems with critical points

description: Using typical solution strategies to compute the solution curve of challenging problems often leads to the break down of the algorithm. To improve the solution process, numerical continuation methods have proved to be a very efficient tool. However, these methods can still lead to undesired results. In particular, near severe limit points and cusps, the solution process frequently encounters one of the following situations : divergence of the algorithm, a change in direction which makes the algorithm backtrack on a part of the solution curve that has already been obtained and omitting important regions of the solution curve by converging to a point that is much farther than the one anticipated. Detecting these situations is not an easy task when solving practical problems since the shape of the solution curve is not known in advance. This paper will therefore present a modified Moore-Penrose continuation method that will include two key aspects to solve challenging problems : detection of problematic regions during the solution process and additional steps to deal with them. The proposed approach can either be used as a basic continuation method or simply activated when difficulties occur. Numerical examples will be presented to show the efficiency of the new approach.

description: At Fraunhofer ISE the PV-TEC (Photovoltaic Technology Evaluation Center) laboratory has been built
up in 2005. Since then the center has been operated constantly and has been expanded by adding advanced
technology and increased infrastructure capacity. Various databases have been introduced to track the work done in
this large laboratory. In this paper we show data on e.g. roughly 120 thousand wafers have been processed during the
last years in about 1300 individual experiments. Further we show the staff size needed for the conduction of this
work. When setting up PV-TEC such data would have been helpful but was not available. A robust baseline process
is constantly improved and serves as basis for the exploration of new technologies and cell structures. We show how
a set of merely industrial processing systems can be combined with new technology components such that advanced
solar cell concepts like LFC-PERC, MWT, EWT, and BJ can be developed and processed.

description: Cosmic inflation, a period of accelerated expansion in the early universe, can give rise to large amplitude ultra-large scale inhomogeneities on distance scales comparable to or larger than the observable universe. The cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy on the largest angular scales is sensitive to such inhomogeneities and can be used to constrain the presence of ultra-large scale structure (ULSS). We numerically evolve nonlinear inhomogeneities present at the beginning of inflation in full General Relativity to assess the CMB quadrupole constraint on the amplitude of the initial fluctuations and the size of the observable universe relative to a length scale characterizing the ULSS. To obtain a statistically significant number of simulations, we adopt a toy model in which inhomogeneities are injected along a preferred direction. We compute the likelihood function for the CMB quadrupole including both ULSS and the standard quantum fluctuations produced during inflation. We compute the posterior given the observed CMB quadrupole, finding that when including gravitational nonlinearities, ULSS curvature perturbations of order unity are allowed by the data, even on length scales not too much larger than the size of the observable universe. Our results illustrate the utility and importance of numerical relativity for constraining early universe cosmology.

description: The present work is based on the electrical characterizations of compensated silicon wafers from the
PHOTOSIL project and intentionally compensated Cz wafers. Results show that on one hand, dopants compensation can
drastically increase the carrier lifetime limited by metal impurities, doping species, and boron-oxygen related complexes
responsible for the light-induced-degradation effects. Nevertheless, on the other hand, dopant compensation introduces
important resistivity variations along the ingot height and along the wafer area. In addition, strong carrier mobility drops have
been highlighted in highly compensated silicon. And if compensated silicon presents some reduced light-induceddegradation
effects, unfortunately, their annihilation by the light-induced-regeneration mechanism is rather difficult, due to
the particularly slow kinetics of this mechanism in compensated silicon.

description: Ylistrum balloti is one of the Pectinidae species distributed within the Indo-Pacific region. Recently, 15 live specimens of Y. balloti were recorded from the continental shelf of Sarawak, Malaysia. The main morphological characteristics were displayed on the outer valve, these being a brown-red colour and a clear concentric pattern of thin brown lines. The prominent internal ribbing numbers on both valves also helped species identification. The preliminary report of Y. balloti revealed that the species is present in Sarawak waters and can be further explored in the future.

description: We investigate the non-classical states of light that emerge in a microwave resonator coupled to a periodically-driven electron in a nanowire double quantum dot (DQD). Under certain drive configurations, we find that the resonator approaches a thermal state at the temperature of the surrounding substrate with a chemical potential given by a harmonic of the drive frequency. Away from these thermal regions we find regions of gain and loss, where the system can lase, or regions where the DQD acts as a single-photon source. These effects are observable in current devices and have broad utility for quantum optics with microwave photons.

with extreme safety measures, silane is potentially harmful. It increases the overall cost of a solar cell line due
to infrastructural precautions regarding storage and handling of the dangerous pyrophoric silane gas. Novel
silane-free processes and delivery systems for liquid precursors were developed at Sixtron Advanced Materials
Inc. The gas flow ratios between the liquid precursor and ammonia can be varied to achieve various levels
carbon contents, this is investigated both on lifetime and cell level. Nitride is deposited twice on local Al BSF
cells, once on the front side and once on the rear side, this work investigates replacing each of them separately.
Replacing the silicon nitride in the rear of a local Al-BSF solar cell with SiCN, we have reached 18.2%
efficiency on 148.25 cm2 area with a Voc of 638 mV, Jsc of 36.3mA/cm2 and FF of 78.7% and capping ALD AlOx
passivated cells with SiCN, an efficiency of 18.5% has been achieved with a Voc of 630 mV, Jsc of 37.5mA/cm2
and FF of 78.1%.

description: The ability to control a complex network towards a desired behavior relies on our understanding of the complex nature of these social and technological networks. The existence of numerous control schemes in a network promotes us to wonder: what is the underlying relationship of all possible input nodes? Here we introduce input graph, a simple geometry that reveals the complex relationship between all control schemes and input nodes. We prove that the node adjacent to an input node in the input graph will appear in another control scheme, and the connected nodes in input graph have the same type in control, which they are either all possible input nodes or not. Furthermore, we find that the giant components emerge in the input graphs of many real networks, which provides a clear topological explanation of bifurcation phenomenon emerging in dense networks and promotes us to design an efficient method to alter the node type in control. The findings provide an insight into control principles of complex networks and offer a general mechanism to design a suitable control scheme for different purposes.

Large PV Power Plants and High Penetration of Distributed PV: System Aspects and Grid Integration

description: 25th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition / 5th World Conference on Photovoltaic Energy Conversion, 6-10 September 2010, Valencia, Spain; 4876-4882
description: Comparison of the sub-hourly variability of large-scale photovoltaic (PV) systems across diverse
geographic climates would be facilitated by having a single metric which captures the characteristics of this
variability within a given hour. The typical method of comparing variability, based on the rate of change over several
fixed time periods - or ramp rates - has limitations and can be unwieldy. This paper introduces a scoring method,
termed an Intra-Hour Variability Score (IHVS), which captures several key variability characteristics into a single
metric which represents an hour of irradiance, or PV output power, data. Use of this metric facilitates the comparison
of variability of PV systems of different sizes, with different configurations, across different climates. In particular, it
has been found that hours with a high irradiance IHVS tend to have similar variability characteristics, even across
diverse climates. Additionally, a strong relationship is shown between the IHVS of plant power production and the
associated irradiance IHVS for the same hour. These relationships suggest the possibility of selecting representative
time-series data from existing plants for use in modeling the grid impacts of a proposed plant in a different location.

description: We investigate the static and dynamical patterns of entanglement in an anisotropic XY model with an alternating transverse magnetic field, which is equivalent to a two-component one-dimensional Fermi gas on a lattice, a system realizable with current technology. Apart from the antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases, the model possesses a dimer phase which is not present in the transverse XY model. At zero temperature, we find that the first derivative of bipartite entanglement can detect all the three phases. We analytically show that the model has a "factorization line" on the plane of system parameters, in which the zero temperature state is separable. Along with investigating the effect of temperature on entanglement in a phase plane, we also report a non-monotonic behavior of entanglement with respect to temperature in the anti-ferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases, which is surprisingly absent in the dimer phase. Since the time dynamics of entanglement in a realizable physical system plays an important role in quantum information processing tasks, the evolutions of entanglement at small as well as large time are examined. Consideration of large time behavior of entanglement helps us to prove that in this model, entanglement is always ergodic. We observe that other quantum correlation measures can qualitatively show similar features in zero and finite temperatures. However, unlike nearest-neighbor entanglement, the nearest-neighbor information theoretic measures can be both ergodic as well as non-ergodic, depending on the system parameters.

description: The performance of single, double, triple junction a-Si:H and hybrid (a-Si/μc-Si) thin-film modules from
different manufacturers was studied with both indoor and outdoor measurements over a one-year period under various
conditions. Before the outdoor test campaign, its modules Temperature Coefficients (TCO) and performance surface
measurements were carried out indoors over varying conditions of irradiance and temperature. During the outdoor
investigation, the modules were also briefly removed from the rack and measured every month indoors at Standard Test
Conditions STC (1000W/m2, AM1.5 and 25°C). The outdoor measurements were performed on a fixed latitude tilted open
rack. Comparisons of the indoor and outdoor data corrected to STC were made over the measurement period.

description: The efficiency statistics of a small thermodynamic machine has been recently investigated assuming that the total dissipation was a linear combination of two currents: the input and output currents. Here, we relax this standard assumption and reconsider the question of the efficiency fluctuations for a machine involving three different processes, first in full generality and second for two different examples. Since the third process may not be measurable and/or may decrease the machine efficiency, our motivation is to study the effect of unknown losses in small machines.

description: In the photovoltaic industry light trapping by texturing is an increasing important issue with decreasing
crystalline silicon wafer thickness down to 150 μm to further increase solar cell efficiency. In this study plasma
texturing starting on as cut mono-crystalline silicon wafers, using the Expanding Thermal Plasma (ETP) technique
and the Linear Microwave Plasma (LMP) technique by SF6/O2 chemistry is investigated optically in more detail by
means of confocal microscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results are compared to a standard wet
chemical KOH/IPA texturing process, which is anisotropic caused by the dependency of the etch rate on the
crystallographic orientation of the wafer and results therefore in a pyramidal texture. An approach for a complete
analysis of the created textures is presented including statistical roughness parameters, scatter angle distributions as
well as surface reflectances.

description: 25th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition / 5th World Conference on Photovoltaic Energy Conversion, 6-10 September 2010, Valencia, Spain; 4846-4858
description: The contribution of power production from PV systems to the electricity supply is constantly
increasing. An efficient use of the fluctuating solar power production will highly benefit from forecast information on
the expected power production, as a basis for management of the electricity grids and trading on the energy market.
We present and evaluate the regional PV power prediction system of University of Oldenburg and Meteocontrol
GmbH providing forecasts of up to 2 days ahead with hourly resolution. The proposed approach is based on forecasts
of the global model of the European Centre for Medium-Range Forecasts (ECMWF). It includes a post-processing
procedure to derive optimised, site-specific irradiance forecasts and explicit physical modelling steps to convert the
predicted irradiances to PV power. Finally, regional power forecasts are derived by up-scaling from a representative
set of PV systems. The investigation of proper up-scaling is a special focus of this paper. We introduce a modified
up-scaling approach, modelling the spatial distribution of the nominal power with a resolution of 1° x 1°. The
operational PV power prediction system is evaluated in comparison to the modified up-scaling approach for the
control areas of the two German transmission system operators ‘transpower’ and ‘50Hertz’ for the period 2.7.2009–
30.4.2010. rmse values of the operational forecasts are in the range of 4–5% with respect to the nominal power for
intra-day and day-ahead forecast horizons. Further improvement is achieved with the modified upscaling approach.

description: For some applications accurate knowledge of solar position allowing to calculate angle of incidence of
solar radiation on a plane surface is necessary. This is particularly true for high concentration CPV or thermal
systems, where demand for accuracy of such calculations rises with increase of concentration factor. There is a
number of algorithms that may be found in literature offering various degree of complexity and accuracy in the
limited period of time. In this work accuracy of several algorithms in determination of solar position in the next 20
years was evaluated and compared. Data were generated using developed software for each algorithm in 1 hour
intervals for the period 2010–2030. As a reference, results obtained by applying Meeus (1998) algorithm, adopted for
solar radiation applications by Reda and Andreas (2004), have been used. This algorithm allows to calculate Sun
horizontal coordinates with uncertainty smaller than ±0,0003° in practically unlimited time period, what qualifies it
as a sufficient reference source.

description: Caloptilotis macleayana johnstoni Mathews Caloptilotis macleayana johnstoni Mathews, 1916a: 62 (Cairns, Queensland). Now Xanthotis macleayanus (Ramsay, 1875). See Salomonsen, 1967: 390, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 226, Christidis and Boles, 2008: 185–191, and Higgins et al., 2008: 689. LECTOTYPE: AMNH 694978, adult male, collected at Cairns, 16.51S, 145.43E (Times Atlas), Queensland, Australia, in October 1908, by P. Schraeder. From the Mathews Collection (no. 3174) via the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: In the original description, Mathews only said that the type was from Cairns, Queensland. AMNH 694978 bears no original label, but a Mathews Collection label on it is marked ‘‘ Type’ ’ and ‘‘johnstoni’’ by Mathews. Mathews’ catalog number ‘‘3174’’ appears on this label but was not mentioned in the description. This specimen also bears a Rothschild type label. Because there are three other specimens from the same locality, the original description is ambiguous with regard to their type status. Mathews’ labeling of this specimen as the type of johnstoni shows that it was his intent to treat it as the type, and I hereby designate AMNH 695978 the lectotype of Caloptilotis macleayana johnstoni. The number ‘‘771’’ that appears on Mathews’ label refers to this species in Mathews (1908). The paralectotypes in AMNH, all collected at Cairns by Schraeder in 1908, are: AMNH 694979 (Mathews no. 3175), male, July; AMNH 694980 (3177), female, July; AMNH 694981 (3176), female, August.
