Chemical modifications of perovskite solar cells at interfaces
Creators: name: Ji, Tengxiao
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are an attractive renewable energy source due to their ease of solution-based fabrication, low toxicity, and high power conversion efficiency. However, defective interfaces still restrict the performance and large-scale deployment of PSCs for modern renewable energy solutions. Most prevalent modification strategies for defective PSC interfaces are restricted to material engineering of interlayers that only provide limited improvements to overall device performance. This thesis presents chemical modifications to improve the interface quality of PSCs by passivating defects and improving interfacial contacts. Furthermore, it explores the mechanisms that improve device efficiency and stability. These chemical modifications demonstrate high tunability and low fabrication complexity, which can improve device performance, inspire new interlayer designs, and facilitate further deployment of high-efficiency PSCs. This thesis first introduces the fabrication workflow of PSCs, and each layer of the device is appropriately adjusted to obtain high performance. It also introduces major characterization technologies that help study the performance and charge transport in PSCs. Sputter deposition is then introduced for scalable metal contact deposition of PSCs. This technology has not been applied previously because it damages the adjacent organic hole transport layer (HTL). However, this sputtering damage can be reversed by oxidation, and the resulting PSCs exhibit high efficiency (18.7%). Characterization results demonstrate that the oxidation step reconstructs the molecular order of the HTL and reverses Au atom diffusion into the device. The next part explores the interfacial interactions between chiral low-dimensional (quasi-2D) perovskites and chiral HTLs. ‘Chiral matching’ between ionic HTLs and perovskite enantiomers with heterochiral interactions (R + S) results in test devices with less energy loss in the hole transport and higher durability. Density functional theory calculations further support a detailed mechanistic understanding of this interface. Finally, this thesis develops a new molecular interlayer strategy at the perovskite|HTL interface using large triarylammonium cations (>6 Å). The resulting PSCs achieve higher efficiency (19.4%) than quasi-2D perovskite interlayers (18.9%) and high stability by suppressing the formation of resistive quasi-2D perovskites and improving the perovskite|HTL interfacial contact. This new strategy will inspire unique design principles for PSC interlayers.

description: Humans can effortlessly perform very complex, dexterous manipulation tasks by reacting to sensor observations. In contrast, robots can not perform reactive manipulation and they mostly operate in open-loop while interacting with their environment. Consequently, the current manipulation algorithms either are inefficient in performance or can only work in highly structured environments. In this paper, we present closed-loop control of a complex manipulation task where a robot uses a tool to interact with objects. Manipulation using a tool leads to complex kinematics and contact constraints that need to be satisfied for generating feasible manipulation trajectories. We first present an open-loop controller design using Non-Linear Programming (NLP) that satisfies these constraints. In order to design a closed-loop controller, we present a pose estimator of objects and tools using tactile sensors. Using our tactile estimator, we design a closed-loop controller based on Model Predictive Control (MPC). The proposed algorithm is verified using a 6 DoF manipulator on tasks using a variety of objects and tools. We verify that our closed-loop controller can successfully perform tool manipulation under several unexpected contacts.

description: A dynamic modelling study was undertaken to assess the feasibility of a planned CO2 injection experiment into a shallow fault at the CO2CRC’s Otway Research Facility. The aim was to identify key physical properties that strongly influence migration behaviour but are presently unmeasured. Two different simulators (CMG-GEM and TOUGH2) were used to model this experiment. Both simulation efforts indicate that the proposed experiment is feasible, but show the need for better data on the maximum injection pressure and the permeability distribution in the near-surface region (including the continuity of the clay layer). During the simulation with high injection rate, there could be a rapid accumulation of CO2 at the early injection stage due to the constraints of maximum injection pressure. The modelling results suggest that the dominant trapping mechanisms are likely to be free CO2 gas trapped by the upper clay layer and residual trapping. The total amount of CO2 that could be injected increased with greater injection pressure, injection rate and maximum residual gas saturation. The results suggest that dissolution of CO2 is likely to continue to increase during the injection and post-injection stages. After the CO2 injection phase, the gas was found to spread laterally within the reservoir and moved upward along the permeable grid cells at the modelled fault. A comparison between the modelling approaches suggests that if there is a desire to have CO2 migrate up the fault and reach the upper clay layer, it will be important to conduct the injection experiment at the most permeable sections of the fault and inject CO2 into a shallow high permeability layer. It is necessary to clarify whether there is an unsaturated zone beneath the clay layer as this is speculated to exist but is unknown.

description: We derive general bounds on the probability that the empirical first-passage time $\overlineτ_n\equiv \sum_{i=1}^nτ_i/n$ of a reversible ergodic Markov process inferred from a sample of $n$ independent realizations deviates from the true mean first-passage time by more than any given amount in either direction. We construct non-asymptotic confidence intervals that hold in the elusive small-sample regime and thus fill the gap between asymptotic methods and the Bayesian approach that is known to be sensitive to prior belief and tends to underestimate uncertainty in the small-sample setting. We prove sharp bounds on extreme first-passage times that control uncertainty even in cases where the mean alone does not sufficiently characterize the statistics. Our concentration-of-measure-based results allow for model-free error control and reliable error estimation in kinetic inference, and are thus important for the analysis of experimental and simulation data in the presence of limited sampling.

description: Almost a hundred compact binary mergers have been detected via gravitational waves by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration in the past few years providing us with a significant amount of new information on black holes and neutron stars. In addition to observations, numerical simulations using newly developed modern codes in the field of gravitational wave physics will guide us to understand the nature of single and binary degenerate systems and highly energetic astrophysical processes. We here presented a set of new fully general relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of high-mass binary neutron star systems using the open-source Einstein Toolkit and LORENE codes. We considered systems with total baryonic masses ranging from 2.8 $M_\odot$ to 4.0 $M_\odot$ and used the SLy equation of state. We analyzed the gravitational wave signal for all models and reported potential indicators of systems undergoing rapid collapse into a black hole that could be observed by future detectors like the Einstein Telescope and the Cosmic Explorer. The properties of the post-merger black hole, the disk and ejecta masses, and their dependence on the binary parameters were also extracted. We also compared our numerical results with recent analytical fits presented in the literature and provided parameter-dependent semi-analytical relations between the total mass and mass ratio of the systems and the resulting black hole masses and spins, merger frequency, BH formation time, ejected mass, disk mass, and radiated gravitational wave energy.

description: We study the problem of clustering networks whose nodes have imputed or physical positions in a single dimension, for example prestige hierarchies or the similarity dimension of hyperbolic embeddings. Existing algorithms, such as the critical gap method and other greedy strategies, only offer approximate solutions to this problem. Here, we introduce a dynamic programming approach that returns provably optimal solutions in polynomial time -- O(n^2) steps -- for a broad class of clustering objectives. We demonstrate the algorithm through applications to synthetic and empirical networks and show that it outperforms existing heuristics by a significant margin, with a similar execution time.

description: The progenitors for many types of supernovae (SNe) are still unknown, and an approach to diagnose their physical origins is to investigate the light curve brightness and shape of a large set of SNe. However, it is often difficult to compare and contrast the existing sample studies due to differences in their approaches and assumptions, for example in how to eliminate host galaxy extinction, and this might lead to systematic errors when comparing the results. We therefore introduce the Hybrid Analytic Flux FittEr for Transients (haffet), a Python-based software package that can be applied to download photometric and spectroscopic data for transients from open online sources, derive bolometric light curves, and fit them to semi-analytical models for estimation of their physical parameters. In a companion study, we have investigated a large collection of SNe Ib and Ic observed with the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) with haffet, and here we detail the methodology and the software package to encourage more users. As large-scale surveys such as ZTF and LSST continue to discover increasing numbers of transients, tools such as haffet will be critical for enabling rapid comparison of models against data in statistically consistent, comparable and reproducable ways. Additionally, haffet is created with a Graphical User Interface mode, which we hope will boost the efficiency and make the usage much easier.

Novel three-dimensional Fermi surface and electron-correlation-induced charge density wave in FeGe

description: As the first magnetic kagome material to exhibit the charge density wave (CDW) order, FeGe has attracted much attention in recent studies. Similar to AV$_{3}$Sb$_{5}$ (A = K, Cs, Rb), FeGe exhibits the CDW pattern with an in-plane 2$\times $2 structure and the existence of van Hove singularities (vHSs) near the Fermi level. However, sharply different from AV$_{3}$Sb$_{5}$ which has phonon instability at $M$ point, all the theoretically calculated phonon frequencies in FeGe remain positive. Here, we perform a comprehensive study of the band structures, Fermi surfaces and nesting function of FeGe through first-principles calculations. Surprisingly, we find that the maximum of nesting function is at $K$ point instead of $M$ point. Two Fermi pockets with Fe-$d_{xz}$ and Fe-$d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$/$d_{xy}$ orbital characters have large contribution to the Fermi nesting, which evolve significantly with $k_{z}$, indicating the highly three-dimensional (3D) feature of FeGe in contrast to AV$_{3}$Sb$_{5}$. Meanwhile, the vHSs are close to the Fermi surface only in a small $k_{z}$ range, and does not play a leading role in nesting function. Considering the effect of local Coulomb interaction, we reveal that the Fermi level eigenstates nested by vector $K$ are mainly distributed from unequal sublattice occupancy, thus the instability at $K$ point is significantly suppressed. Meanwhile, the wave functions nested by vector $M$ have many ingredients located at the same Fe site, thus the instability at $M$ point is enhanced. This indicates that the electron correlation, rather than electron-phonon interaction, plays a key role in the CDW transition at $M$ point.

description: The rapid scaling of language models is motivating research using low-bitwidth quantization. In this work, we propose a novel binarization technique for Transformers applied to machine translation (BMT), the first of its kind. We identify and address the problem of inflated dot-product variance when using one-bit weights and activations. Specifically, BMT leverages additional LayerNorms and residual connections to improve binarization quality. Experiments on the WMT dataset show that a one-bit weight-only Transformer can achieve the same quality as a float one, while being 16x smaller in size. One-bit activations incur varying degrees of quality drop, but mitigated by the proposed architectural changes. We further conduct a scaling law study using production-scale translation datasets, which shows that one-bit weight Transformers scale and generalize well in both in-domain and out-of-domain settings. Implementation in JAX/Flax will be open sourced.

Studying beta-catenin signaling activity in fibro/adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) and its effect on muscle homeostasis
Creators: name: Kajabadi, Nasim Sadat
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Loss of muscle mass is a common manifestation of chronic pathologies with a significant impact on quality of life. We found the canonical Wnt pathway to be activated in Fibro/Adipogenic Progenitor (FAP)s from cancer induced cachectic muscle. Based on this physiological relevance, we induced Beta-CATENIN transcriptional activity in these mesenchymal progenitors (MP)s via inducible deletion of its ubiquitination site. As a result, we observed expansion of FAPs in the absence of tissue damage, as well as rapid loss of muscle mass. As FAPs are present throughout the organism, we used spatially restricted CRE activation and showed that induction of tissue resident FAPs’ activation is sufficient to induce muscle atrophy. We further identified increased expression of stromal NOGGIN and ACTIVIN-A as key drivers of atrophic processes in myofibers and verified their expression by FAPs of cachectic muscle. Blocking ACTIVIN-A rescued the atrophy phenotype triggered by Beta-CATENIN activation in FAPs, confirming its key functional role and strengthening the rationale for targeting this pathway in chronic disease.

description: The field of natural language processing has reached breakthroughs with the advent of transformers. They have remained state-of-the-art since then, and there also has been much research in analyzing, interpreting, and evaluating the attention layers and the underlying embedding space. In addition to the self-attention layers, the feed-forward layers in the transformer are a prominent architectural component. From extensive research, we observe that its role is under-explored. We focus on the latent space, known as the Activation Space, that consists of the neuron activations from these feed-forward layers. In this survey paper, we review interpretability methods that examine the learnings that occurred in this activation space. Since there exists only limited research in this direction, we conduct a detailed examination of each work and point out potential future directions of research. We hope our work provides a step towards strengthening activation space analysis.

description: This paper investigates the causes of the FTX digital currency exchange's failure in November 2022. We identify the collapse of the Terra-Luna ecosystem as the pivotal event that triggered a significant decrease in the exchange's liquidity. Analysing on-chain data, we report that FTX heavily relied on leveraging and misusing its native token, FTT, and we show how this behaviour exacerbated the company's fragile financial situation. To gain further insights into the downfall, we study evolutionary dependency structures of 199 cryptocurrencies on an hourly basis, and we investigate public trades at the time of the events. Results suggest that the collapse was actively accelerated by Binance tweets causing a systemic reaction in the cryptocurrency market. Finally, identifying the actors who mostly benefited from the FTX's collapse and highlighting a generalised trend toward centralisation in the crypto space, we emphasise the importance of genuinely decentralised finance for a transparent, future digital economy.

description: In hybrid Josephson junctions with three or more superconducting terminals coupled to a semiconducting region, Andreev bound states may form unconventional energy band structures, or Andreev matter, which are engineered by controlling superconducting phase differences. Here we report tunnelling spectroscopy measurements of three-terminal Josephson junctions realised in an InAs/Al heterostructure. The three terminals are connected to form two loops, enabling independent control over two phase differences and access to a synthetic Andreev band structure in the two-dimensional phase space. Our results demonstrate a phase-controlled Andreev molecule, originating from two discrete Andreev levels that spatially overlap and hybridise. Signatures of hybridisation are observed in the form of avoided crossings in the spectrum and band structure anisotropies in the phase space, all explained by a numerical model. Future extensions of this work could focus on addressing spin-resolved energy levels, ground state fermion parity transitions and Weyl bands in multiterminal geometries.

description: La théorie des genres se trouve à l’origine même de la conceptualisation par les études littéraires de leur objet. Les théoriciens des genres ont d’abord analysé les caractéristiques internes des genres comme entités réelles. Cette approche a provoqué une crise portant précisément sur la réalité — ou l’irréalité — de ces catégories, que les chercheurs ont voulu résoudre au XXe siècle grâce à une posture pragmatiste s’intéressant aux conséquences pratiques des catégorisations génériques davantage qu’aux genres littéraires en tant que tels. En s’attardant ainsi sur les conséquences pratiques de la généricité, la perspective pragmatiste, qui domine de nos jours la génologie, a mis de côté la composante imaginaire des genres. Cette dernière s’avère néanmoins centrale pour comprendre le rapport complexe des individus et des collectivités à la littérature. Aussi cette thèse argue-t-elle que les genres littéraires, loin d’être de simples catégories abstraites, sont des représentations. Après avoir revisité la notion de genre à partir de celle de représentation, la présente recherche s’engage dans une exploration de l’imaginaire des genres littéraires. Des exemples tirés de la théorie des genres, des origines à nos jours, permettent d’observer que même les génologies construisent des représentations des genres qu’elles entendent pourtant aborder de manière objective. Ensuite, la thèse se penche sur la littérature franco-canadienne contemporaine, qui constitue un formidable laboratoire pour explorer cette nouvelle théorisation du problème des genres littéraires, montrant que les catégories génériques reflètent dans ce corpus des enjeux sociaux, politiques ou existentiels. Les analyses présentées invitent en fin de compte les chercheurs à élargir leur compréhension de la généricité et à porter attention à sa dimension imaginaire, qui n’a, jusqu’ici, jamais été introduite dans une théorisation générale de la question des genres littéraires.
Ring resonator/modulator simulation automation and substrate scattering analysis for applications in integrated silicon photonic circuits
Creators: name: Tofini, Alexander
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: A micro-ring resonator/modulator simulation automation system is presented centered on Lumerical’s application programming interface (API) system called LumAPI. A clean and user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI) is integrated with the system to increase accessibility while designing the passive ring structure and the P-N junction used for modulation. Furthermore, a database system is implemented to record data for every component simulation that comprises the complete ring. This removes the need for duplicate simulations from ever being executed in the future, thus, reducing the overall simulation time required when designing micro-rings. This process allows the user to model the spectral behaviors of micro-ring resonators with ease and provides the capability to investigate high-speed modulation of micro-ring modulators. The use of micro-ring resonators as a source of photon-pair generation via spontaneous four-wave mixing is then discussed, along with the application of cascaded contra-directional couplers as pump rejection filters. An analysis of potential noise sources is presented along with a novel way to improve the suppression ratio of these filters.

Hidden scale invariance in the Gay-Berne model. II. Smectic B phase

description: This paper complements a previous study of the isotropic and nematic phases of the Gay-Berne liquid-crystal model [Mehri et al., Phys. Rev. E 105, 064703 (2022)] with a study of its smectic B phase found at high density and low temperatures. We find also in this phase strong correlations between the virial and potential-energy thermal fluctuations, reflecting hidden scale invariance and implying the existence of isomorphs. The predicted approximate isomorph invariance of the physics is confirmed by simulations of the standard and orientational radial distribution functions, the mean-square displacement as a function of time, as well as the force, torque, velocity, angular velocity, and orientational time-autocorrelation functions. The regions of the Gay-Berne model that are relevant for liquid-crystal experiments can thus fully be simplified via the isomorph theory.

description: Using the First Light And Reionisation Epoch Simulations (${\rm F{\small LARES}}$), a suite of hydrodynamical simulations we explore the consequences of a realistic model for star--dust geometry on the observed properties of galaxies. We find that the UV attenuation declines rapidly from the central regions of galaxies, and bright galaxies have spatially extended star formation that suffers less obscuration than their fainter counterparts, demonstrating a non-linear relationship between the UV luminosity and the UV attenuation, giving a double power-law shape to the UVLF. Spatially distinct stellar populations within galaxies experience a wide range of dust attenuation due to variations in the dust optical depth along their line-of-sight; which can range from completely dust obscured to being fully unobscured. The overall attenuation curve of a galaxy is then a complex combination of various lines-of-sight within the galaxy. We explore the manifestation of this effect to study the reliability of line ratios to infer galaxy properties, in particular the Balmer decrement and the BPT diagram. We find the Balmer decrement predicted Balmer line attenuation to be higher (factor of $1$ to $\gtrsim10$) than expected from commonly used attenuation curves. The observed BPT line ratios deviate from their intrinsic values (median difference of 0.08 (0.02) and standard deviation of 0.2 (0.05) for log$_{10}$([N${\rm {\small II}}$]$λ6585/$H$_α$) (log$_{10}$([O${\rm {\small III}}$]$λ5008/$H$_β$)). Finally, we explore the variation in observed properties (UV attenuation, UV slope and Balmer decrement) with viewing angle, finding average differences of $\sim0.3$ magnitudes in the UV attenuation.

description: Bacterial inclusion bodies (IBs) are insoluble protein aggregates formed during the overexpression of recombinant genes in bacteria. Although usually considered as unfolded waste material, recent studies have shown that IBs can contain biologically functional proteins. Moreover, the fusion of aggregation-inducing or ‘Pull-down’ tags has been used as a strategy to produce catalytically active IBs. This project aims to optimise the production and purification of p40 inclusion bodies (p40-IBs) for the controlled design of modular protein nanoparticles for industrial applications. Especially, it focuses on the study of several parameters such as concentration of inducer, temperature and time of induction to achieve control over the yield, size, and morphology of p40-IBs. Another aspect of the project studied the intracellular formation of fluorescent mCherry-p40 IBs in the host cell Escherichia coli. Expression kinetics of mCherry-p40 IBs in E. coli cells showed that production parameters such as temperature, time of induction, and the concentration of inducer have a significant role in tuning the IBs properties. Further studies were conducted to analyse the biophysical characteristics of the mCherry-p40 IBs obtained under different production conditions. Finally, the reversible reaggregation of p40-IBs after complete solubilisation with a chaotropic agent was studied as a potential material biofunctionalisation strategy.

description: The hastily announced lockdown in March 2020 by the Indian government precipitated a wave of uncertainty and fear among urban residents living in auto-constructed settlements. In subsequent weeks, images poured in of people undertaking arduous journeys across hundreds of miles to try and get back to their native villages – a process that was dubbed the ‘migrant crisis’ by the mainstream media. This coinage, however, hides a number of differences in the positionality of city residents in terms of housing, employment, access to credit, political clientelism and family structure, factors which are themselves circumscribed by caste, religion, gender and ethnicity. Drawing on qualitative research in two separate field sites within Mumbai, this paper seeks to provide insight into the way choices on staying, leaving and returning to the city were made by various informal workers at the individual, family and community levels. While offering a chronological account of how the lockdown unfolded in the city, it makes three central observations. First, the status and relationship between landlord and tenant within the autoconstructed settlement was a key axis along which migratory decisions were negotiated. Second, the unforeseen gendered fallouts of punitive state action structured certain people’s desperation to leave. Finally, the collective psychology of fear and safety worked more along the lines of caste, religion and ethnic community rather than friends and neighbors. Taken together, these insights aim to emphasize the need for more granular categories and new vocabularies to understand the evolving relationship between mobility, social structures and precarious forms of urban labor.

description: When a charge current is injected into the surface state of a topological insulator (TI), the resulting shift of the spin-momentum-locked Fermi surface leads to the appearance of a net spin polarization. The helical spin structure of the Dirac-cone surface state of a TI should lead to a fixed sign of this spin polarization for a given current direction, but experimentally, both signs that agree and disagree with the theory expectation for the surface state Dirac cone have been observed in the past. Although the origin of the wrong sign has not been conclusively elucidated, this observation points to the possibility that one may switch the spin polarization at will to realize a spin transistor operation. Here we report the observation of both signs of spin polarization in the very same device and demonstrate the tunability between the two by electrostatic gating, which gives a proof of principle of a topological insulator spin transistor. This switching behaviour is explained using a minimal model of competing contributions from the topological surface state and trivial Rashba-split states.
