description: Modern cellular networks in traditional frequency bands are notoriously interference-limited especially in urban areas, where base stations are deployed in close proximity to one another. The latest releases of Long Term Evolution (LTE) incorporate features for coordinating downlink transmissions as an efficient means of managing interference. Recent field trial results and theoretical studies of the performance of joint transmission (JT) coordinated multi-point (CoMP) schemes revealed, however, that their gains are not as high as initially expected, despite the large coordination overhead. These schemes are known to be very sensitive to defects in synchronization or information exchange between coordinating bases stations as well as uncoordinated interference. In this article, we review recent advanced coordinated beamforming (CB) schemes as alternatives, requiring less overhead than JT CoMP while achieving good performance in realistic conditions. By stipulating that, in certain LTE scenarios of increasing interest, uncoordinated interference constitutes a major factor in the performance of CoMP techniques at large, we hereby assess the resilience of the state-of-the-art CB to uncoordinated interference. We also describe how these techniques can leverage the latest specifications of current cellular networks, and how they may perform when we consider standardized feedback and coordination. This allows us to identify some key roadblocks and research directions to address as LTE evolves towards the future of mobile communications.

description: The aim of the study is to develop ultra-compact structures enabling an efficient conversion of single
high energy photon (UV) to two lower energy photons (IR). The proposed structure combines rare-earths doped thin
layer allowing the down-conversion process with a photonic crystal (PhC), in order to control and enhance the
down-conversion using optical resonances. On the top of the rare-earths doped layer, a silicon nitride (SiN) 2D planar
PhC is synthesized. For that, SiN is first deposited by PECVD. After holographic lithography and reactive ion
etching, a periodic square lattice of holes is generated on the SiN layer. The PhC topographical parameters as well as
the layers thickness are optimized using Finite-Difference-Time-Domain simulations. The design and realization of
such PhC-assisted down-converter structures is presented. Optical simulations demonstrate that the PhC leads to the
establishment of resonant modes located in the underneath doped layer, allowing a drastic enhancement of the
absorption of the rare-earth ions without disturbing the transmission in the visible and near-IR parts of the spectrum,
hence demonstrating the relevance of such an approach.

description: In order to improve the global horizontal irradiance (GHI) forecast of the numerical weather model, the
Japan Meteorological Agency Meso-Scale Model (MSM), the cloud scheme is modified to remove the error. The
current cloud scheme of the MSM has the seasonal error so that new parameters which depend on the surface air
temperature (TMP) or total precipitable water (TPW) are introduced to represent the seasonality: if TMP or TPW is
low (high), then the cloud production is accelerated (decelerated). The modified cloud scheme makes a success of the
reduction of the MSM GHI forecast error. The daytime averaged root mean square error (RMSE) of the GHI forecast
for all cases (twelve cases are tested) is improved about 5% (from 120 W m-2 to 115 W m-2).

description: We introduce an accurate non-Hermitian Schrödinger-type approximation of Bloch optical equations for two-level systems. This approximation provides a complete description of the excitation, relaxation and decoherence dynamics in both weak and strong laser fields. In this approach, it is sufficient to propagate the wave function of the quantum system instead of the density matrix, providing that relaxation and dephasing are taken into account via automatically-adjusted time-dependent gain and decay rates. The developed formalism is applied to the problem of scattering and absorption of electromagnetic radiation by a thin layer comprised of interacting two-level emitters.

description: To obtain new information about the amount and type of degradation this study analyses performance
measurements of PV modules which have been used for 15 years. Degradation is the reduction of power of a photovoltaic
solar module under its environmental conditions during its working period. There are multiple reasons which
are not known in detail. Information on this topic is fundamentally for planning, financing and working of photovoltaic
systems. In this paper various causes of degradation are gathered from the evaluation of electroluminescence images,
electrical parameters of the modules and I-V curve characteristics. Performance losses of modules despite having
them stored in darkness and initial degradation of modules are also considered. This paper shows how a yearly
linear degradation can be derived. The survey presented in this paper is based on Siemens monocrystalline PVmodules
installed in 1997 at Munich Trade Fair Centre. The system was the first roof installed megawatt PV plant by
that time.

description: In order to assess the interaction between a PV generation system and the low voltage distribution grid,
the Grupo en Energías Renovables (GER) has designed and installed a 600 Wp PV system connected to the 220 V
network of the building of the Facultad de Ciencias Exactas in Corrientes, Argentina. The system entered into
operation in 2010 and has been monitored ever since using different measurement instruments. This article presents
the system characteristics and the performance ratio assessment (established in IEC 61724:1998) for the period
between January 2011 and December 2012. During the first 10 months changes in the system Performance Ratio
(PR) are comparable to those reported in other studies, however during the remaining months the PR decreased due to
instabilities of network parameters (voltage, frequency, etc.). We conclude that systems with these characteristics are
an appropriate choice for implementing distributed generation in northern Argentina. However, to improve the
performance of the system, care must be taken in the choice of the inverter whose parameters must be suitable for
operation in unstable networks.

description: Optical losses are a major source for current and power reduction in solar modules. Hence, various
improvements aiming at reducing these losses have been suggested. In this work, we have evaluated the effects of
anti-reflective coating, front glass thickness, PVB UV+ encapsulant and light harvestings strings (LHS) on the
module performance individually and in combination. The individual and combined contributions were quantified by
spectrally resolved optical measurements on the module components and simulations as well as electrical
measurements on 1-cell- and 54-cell-modules. Optical gains and their impact on short circuit current are discussed in
relation to a maximum current obtained from the solar cells internal quantum efficiency. The results of the electrical
characterization are in good agreement with the optical analysis substantiating our approach. They show that a
combined, relative current enhancement of 5% can be obtained for an optimized module which compares to an
increase of 1% absolute efficiency.

description: We investigate the direct-current response of crystalline organic semiconductors in the presence of finite external electric fields by the quantum-classical Ehrenfest dynamics complemented with instantaneous decoherence corrections (IDC). The IDC is carried out in the real-space representation with the energy-dependent reweighing factors to account for both intermolecular decoherence and energy relaxation by which conduction occurs. In this way, both the diffusion and drift motion of charge carriers are described in a unified framework. Based on an off-diagonal electron-phonon coupling model for pentacene, we find that the drift velocity initially increases with the electric field and then decreases at higher fields due to the Wannier-Stark localization, and a negative electric-field dependence of mobility is observed. The Einstein relation, which is a manifestation of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem, is found to be restored in electric fields up to ~$10^5$ V/cm for a wide temperature region studied. Furthermore, we show that the incorporated decoherence and energy relaxation could explain the large discrepancy between the mobilities calculated by the Ehrenfest dynamics and the full quantum methods, which proves the effectiveness of our approach to take back these missing processes.

description: An analysis of an ultra-thin crystalline silicon solar cell with 200 nm thick active layer fabricated in our
laboratory shows that the behavior of quantum efficiency as a function of wavelength is primarily determined by the
absorption of light in the active layer, showing a series of interference peaks. We have now modeled this solar cell in
detail, perceiving the solar cell as a waveguide. Intriguingly we find that the peaks in the quantum efficiency lie close
to the frequencies of the trapped (internal) modes of the waveguide. This paper provides a detailed explanation of
how these modes, normally inaccessible to external observation, can be detected in external quantum response, in
terms of the position of poles of the absorbance in the complex wave number plane.

description: Yield forecasting of the commercial design tool PVsyst (v5.6) is compared to the performance
measurements of multi crystalline modules in Dietikon, Zurich, during 2011. The total measured horizontal irradiance
was 1146 kWh/m2 in 2011. This pyranometer measurement covers 91.5% of the total annual irradiance (determined
using IDAWEB data with 100% uptime for Affoltern). The historical irradiance data averaged over decades are about
11.4% (Meteonorm) or 13.6% (PVGIS) lower than the IDAWEB data in 2011. The standard deviation between 2001
and 2011 is about 4.9% with respect to IDAWEB. The measured DC performance ratio (PRDC) is 0.937 with a
measurement uncertainty of ±0.031 (k=2). Simulations with manufacturer and optimised parameters showed a
deviation to the measurement between 4% and 8%. A second analysis considers shading losses for different shading
angles. Calculated losses are about 2% lower than simulated losses with PVsyst using a model of partial shading for a
shading angle of 20°. Interesting results could be achieved by determining the loss upon limiting the inverter output
power. There is only 4.4% annual loss when the inverter output power is set to a limit of 70 % for the location
Dietikon in 2011.

description: We extract the long-distance asymptotic behaviour of two-point correlation functions in massless quantum integrable models containing multi-species excitations. For such a purpose, we extend to these models the method of a large-distance regime re-summation of the form factor expansion of correlation functions. The key feature of our analysis is a technical hypothesis on the large-volume behaviour of the form factors of local operators in such models. We check the validity of this hypothesis on the example of the $SU(3)$-invariant XXX magnet by means of the determinant representations for the form factors of local operators in this model. Our approach confirms the structure of the critical exponents obtained previously for numerous models solvable by the nested Bethe Ansatz.

description: While emission and absorption entropy generation is well known in black bodies, it has not previously
been studied in semiconductors, even though semiconductors are widely used for solar light absorption in modern
solar cells [1]. We present an analysis of the entropy generation in semiconductor materials due to emission and
absorption of electromagnetic radiation. It is shown that the emission and absorption entropy generation reduces the
fundamental limit on the efficiency of any semiconductor solar cell even further than the Landsberg limit. The results
are derived from purely thermodynamical considerations and are thus of general validity. A modified Landsberg
efficiency and numerical results are given.

description: Low temperature ultrasound velocity measurements are presented on the frustrated spin system SrDy2O4 that allow us to define high resolution phase diagrams with the magnetic field applied along all three principal axes. For H||b, a region of field-induced long range order is delimited by a dome of first-order phase transitions. An unusual magnetization process is observed with significant irreversibility at very low temperatures when passing between the low-field spin liquid phase and the long range ordered phase which we attribute to large energy barriers. For H||c, the system appears to remain effectively one-dimensional, exhibiting two transitions as a function of magnetic field, but no finite-temperature long range order.

description: Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit unterschiedlichen, physikalisch motivierten mathematischen Modellen. Für diskrete periodische Schrödinger Operatoren leiten wir Kriterien her, die die Anwendbarkeit der Finite-Section-Methode garantieren. Zudem beweisen wir die Optimalität der bewiesenen Resultate. Für nichtautonome abstrakte Cauchyprobleme mit zeitabhängigen Beobachtungsoperatoren beweisen wir ein abstraktes Theorem zur terminalen Beobachtbarkeit. Des Weiteren beschreiben wir notwendige und hinreichende Bedingungen an die Geometrie der im Falle von nichtautonomen Diffusionsgleichungen auftretenden Beobachtungsmengen. Für die Navier-Stokes Gleichungen auf zweidimensionalen Lipschitzgebieten beweisen wir die höhere Regularität von Leray-Hopf Lösungen in Lebesgue- und Distributionenräumen. Dazu konstruieren wir ein funktionalanalytisches Rahmengerüst des Stokes-Operators auf Lebesgueräumen, was den Nachweis maximaler Regularität und eines beschränkten H-unendlich-Kalküls beinhaltet. Zuletzt charakterisieren wir die Definitionsbereiche fraktionaler Potenzen des Stokes-Operators auf Lp-Räumen durch Besselpotentialräume.
description: This work studies different physically motivated mathematical models. For discrete periodic Schrödinger operators, we derive sufficient conditions on the applicability of the finite section method. We derive an abstract theorem for non-autonomous Cauchy problems with time-dependent observation families to assure final-state observability. Furthermore, we prove necessary and sufficient geometric conditions on the family of observation sets in the case of non-autonomous diffusion problems. For the Navier-Stokes equations on planar Lipschitz domains, we prove higher regularity of Leray-Hopf solutions in spaces of Lebesgue functions and distributions. To this end, we develop a functional analytic framework for the Stokes operator on Lebesgue spaces, including a proof of maximal regularity and boundedness of the H-infinity-calculus. Furthermore, we characterize the domains of fractional powers of the Stokes operator on Lp-spaces in terms of Bessel-potential spaces.

description: Many stars host planets orbiting within a few astronomical units (AU). The occurrence rate and distributions of masses and orbits vary greatly with the host stars mass. These close planets origins are a mystery that motivates investigating protoplanetary disks central regions. A key factor governing the conditions near the star is the silicate sublimation front, which largely determines where the starlight is absorbed, and which is often called the inner rim. We present the first radiation hydrodynamical modeling of the sublimation front in the disks around the young intermediate-mass stars called Herbig Ae stars. The models are axisymmetric, and include starlight heating, silicate grains sublimating and condensing to equilibrium at the local, time-dependent temperature and density, and accretion stresses parametrizing the results of MHD magneto-rotational turbulence models. The results compare well with radiation hydrostatic solutions, and prove to be dynamically stable. Passing the model disks into Monte Carlo radiative transfer calculations, we show that the models satisfy observational constraints on the inner rims location. A small optically-thin halo of hot dust naturally arises between the inner rim and the star. The inner rim has a substantial radial extent, corresponding to several disk scale heights. While the fronts overall position varies with the stellar luminosity, its radial extent depends on the mass accretion rate. A pressure maximum develops near the location of thermal ionization at temperatures about 1000 K. The pressure maximum is capable of halting solid pebbles radial drift and concentrating them in a zone where temperatures are sufficiently high for annealing to form crystalline silicates.

in the “Good and bad practices: Manual to improve the quality and reduce the cost of PV systems” a collection of
good and bad practices in actual PV plants. All the situations it collects represent the state-of-the-art of existing PV
installations all around Europe. They show how the different parts of an installation can be implemented properly or
not. The aim of this manual is to represent a reference text which can help any PV actor (installers, electricians,
maintenance operators, owners, etc.) not only to check and improve an already existing installation but will also, and
mainly, avoid the previously known bad practices for the construction of a new PV installation. Thus, solving a priori
the known errors, new PV installations will be more reliable, efficient and cost-effective and can recover the initial
investment in a shorter time. The manual is going to be free available in the PVCROPS website in several languages.

description: The article has as main goal the optimisation of energy generation and load in a power system with
distributed power from renewable energy resources (DP-RES), by designing and implementation an intelligent
informatics platform for monitoring, forecasting and control. The added values of the article consist to create and
implement a software application based on artificial intelligence for the low voltage grid with DP-RES. It integrates
artificial intelligence concepts in monitoring, supervising, forecasting and control actions. The software application
allows customers: to control electricity consumption of the used devices, to reduce their monthly bills, carbon
emissions, energy demand during peak periods and to use more efficient the energy from RES. The innovative
software tool expressing the complexity of the proposed solution is gived by the integration of artificial intelligence
in load and produced energy from RES forecasting.

description: All-trans-retinoic acid (ReA), a closed-shell organic molecule comprising only C, H, and O atoms, is investigated on a Au(111) substrate using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. In dense arrays single ReA molecules are switched to a number of states, three of which carry a localized spin as evidenced by conductance spectroscopy in high magnetic fields. The spin of a single molecule may be reversibly switched on and off without affecting its neighbors. We suggest that ReA on Au is readily converted to a radical by the abstraction of an electron.

description: This paper is aimed at assessing the possibility to evaluated plant performance on the base of
irradiation data elaborated from satellite images, taking into account energy produced readings, outage
fractions recorded, as well as system design data. In order to test and to estimate the related uncertainty of
this approach have been elaborated the performance data collected from a set of 5 plants representing the
first examples of large size commercial systems realized in the framework of the “Conto Energia”
Programme. The potential of the method is that, by means of solar radiation maps elaborated from satellite
images it is possible to extract the data of interest for any Italian locality and evaluate the performance of
small size plants that at present in Italy sum to about 460 000, rarely equipped with a data acquisition
systems. In this way plant performance data may be easily and cheaply available to plant owner,
photovoltaic operators and Utility managers.

description: Scattering nanoparticles of Au and Ag have been shown to provide absorption enhancements in solar
cells at wavelengths longer than ~550 nm. However these systems typically suffer from losses at short wavelengths
due to parasitic absorption in the metal. In this paper we show that the choice of scattering material is crucial to
minimize parasitic losses and achieve broadband absorption enhancements. To this end we present the results of an
experimental comparison of GaAs photodiodes with periodic arrays of Au, Ag and Al nanoparticles fabricated on the
front surface. In particular, we demonstrate that by using Al nanoparticle arrays the optical absorption can be
enhanced across a spectral range from 400 – 900 nm leading to an integrated external quantum efficiency
enhancement of more than 20 %. Our results are supported by comprehensive 3D electromagnetic and electrical
simulations that provide an insight into the underlying physics, demonstrating that the electric field penetration into
Al is significantly lower than that of Au and Ag, hence reducing parasitic absorption.

description: The present work deals with four alternative formulation of Bekenstein system on event horizon in $f(R)$ gravity. While thermodynamical laws holds in universe bounded by apparent horizon, these laws break down on event horizon. With alternative formulation of thermodynamical parameters (temperature and entropy), thermodynamical laws hold on event horizon in Einstein Gravity. With this motivation, we extend the idea of generalised Hawking temperature and modified Bekenstein entropy in homogeneous and isotropic model of universe on event horizon and examine whether thermodynamical laws hold in f(R) gravity. Specifically, we examine and compare validity of generalised second law of thermodynamics (GSLT) and thermodynamical equilibrium (TE) in four alternative modified Bekenstein scenarios. As Dark energy is a possible dominant candidate for matter in the univerese and Holographic Dark Energy (HDE) can give effective description of f(R) gravity, so matter in the universe is taken as in the form interacting HDE. In order to understand the complicated expressions, finally the above laws are examined from graphical representation using three Planck data sets and it is found that generalised/modified Hawking temperature has a crucial role in making perfect thermodynamical system.

description: Strain-balanced super-lattice (SL) has been proved as a really potential structure to tune the bandgap of
one junction in a tandem solar cell to achieve the optimized design as well as to pursue high efficiency single junction
solar cell. Comparing with normal multi-quantum well solar cell, it takes advantage of a minimized drop in open
circuit voltage which is due to the unique and rapid carrier transport mechanism. Additionally, strain balance
technique is very significant to implement such a complicated structure with minimum defects related loss. In this
report, we focus on how to make a simple and smart design for the thin period structure growth. A strain
compensation layer outside active (super-lattice) region has been proposed to allow efficient carrier tunneling through
thin barrier layer while maintain the overall strain balance of entire solar cell.

description: In the first part of the paper we study the reflexivity of Sobolev spaces on non-compact and not necessarily reversible Finsler manifolds. Then, by using direct methods in the calculus of variations, we establish uniqueness, location and rigidity results for singular Poisson equations involving the Finsler-Laplace operator on Finsler-Hadamard manifolds having finite reversibility constant.

description: This paper presents results of analyses of the polycrystalline silicon photovoltaic modules with
phenomenon emerging recent years on the surface of cells working at least one half of year in duty called “Snail
tracks” or “Snail trails” characteristic for optical color changing on surface in accident shape like trails made by
snails. The output operation performed in laboratory by flash tester and also in situ on operation field reveals no
significant drop in wattage, and the drop exhibited by a very small number of modules was due to cell breakages in
some cases corresponding with the shape of snail trails. We have also focused on thermal analyses of modules which
we are bringing in this article.

description: III-V multi-junction solar cells have become standard in space and in terrestrial concentrator systems.
The current landmark for III-V multi-junction solar cells is the Ga0.50In0.50P/Ga0.99In0.01As/Ge triple-junction, which
only contains lattice-matched layers. This MOVPE-grown device is available from different suppliers in large
quantities. Due to the mature development status of this device new concepts are being investigated to increase the
efficiencies further. A toolbox of new ideas and methods is available such as metamorphic and/or inverted growth,
wafer bonding, different substrates, nanostructures, MBE growth and new materials. These have been used and
combined intensively in recent years to develop and realize new structures of III-V multi-junction solar cells. This
paper gives an overview about the technology perspectives and research trends in III-V multi-junction solar cells.
Eventually, a new record efficiency value of 44.7% @ 297xAM1.5d for a 4-junction wafer-bonded solar cell is
presented.
