description: Sub-picosecond laser ablation was studied on different dielectric passivation layers. A residual in the high
laser fluence ablation spot center was observed as already reported [1, 2, 3, 4], where it was identified to be remaining
silicon nitride which was modified in its structure, but not completely removed [1, 2]. The existing theories assume
silicon nitride to be present during the formation of this residual. This phenomenon has been confirmed in this work. The
formation of this residual was also observed under conditions where no silicon nitride layer was present during the laser
irradiation inside the laser irradiated region. It was shown, that there are two different residual formation types, one in the
laser spot center and one in the overlapping region of two laser spots. We show that both types can be reproduced
independently on several dielectric layers. The influence of the laser beam focus on the residual formation was tested to
be irrelevant as well as a re-deposition from the laser generated plasma. In order to study the influence of the residual on
the electrical cell parameters, PERC solar cells with different residual coverage were processed. IV measurements show
that the series resistance of solar cells increases with increasing residual coverage of the openings.

description: This report develops estimated handling and storage costs associated with operating commercial grain elevators in 1971-72. Cost estimates were based on projections of grain production, disappearance, and price levels since the base year, 1967-68. The 1971-72 projected average cost of 16.9 cents for storing a bushel of grain for 1 year is 20 percent above similar 1967-68 costs. A 10-percent increase in volume would lower the 1971-72 projected cost to 15.7 cents. A 10-percent reduction in volume would raise the 1971-72 projection to 18.4 cents. The longrun competitive storage rate, which provides the cost of replacing facilities at 1971-72 price levels, is estimated at 12 cents per bushel or 33 percent higher than the comparable cost in 1967-68. A combination of storage and handling costs particular to the type of facility is 22.5 cents, 24.3 cents, and 19.3 cents per bushel at country, inland terminals, and port terminals, respectively.

description: A conversion efficiency of 22.75 % for silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells using standard 40 um
finger width of copper electroplating process has been successfully achieved in our RD line at AU Optronics (AUO).
However, 40 um finger width of copper (Cu) electroplating (EP) technique has encountered difficulties for further
efficiency improvements. Our power loss simulation reveals efficiency gains from fine fingers. AUO solar RD team
has been developing a new manufacturing technology by employing 20 um finger width of Cu EP to improve shortcircuit
current. Both the experimental result and theoretical calculation show that the total power loss of 20 um finger
width and optimum TCO film resistance of Cu EP cells is much smaller than the power loss from the state of 40 um
finger width technique. According to the simulation result, an efficiency of more than 23.1% is achievable by our
unique metallization technique.

description: We report the fabrication of a van der Waals tunneling device hosting a defect-bound quantum dot coupled to NbSe$_2$. We find that upon application of magnetic field, the device exhibits a zero-bias conductance peak. The peak, which splits at higher fields, is associated with a Kondo effect. At the same time, the junction retains conventional quasiparticle tunneling features at finite bias. Such coexistence of a superconducting gap and a Kondo effect are unusual, and are explained by noting the two-gap nature of the superconducting state of NbSe$_2$, where a magnetic field suppresses the low energy gap associated with the Se band. Our data shows that van der Waals architectures, and defect-bound dots in them, can serve as a novel and effective platform for investigating the interplay of Kondo screening and superconducting pairing in unconventional superconductors.

description: For highly efficient silicon solar cells, lowly doped phosphorus or boron emitters are essential
prerequisites to achieve sufficient surface passivation. However, contact formation to such lowly doped surfaces
remains a challenge for traditional printing technologies. The question arises if such emitters can be contacted
reliably applying advanced metallization inks. For this investigation, we manufactured lowly doped boron and
phosphorus emitters with / < 1·1020 cm-3 onto silicon substrates with high pyramid texture. For metallization we
used our optimized aerosol jet printing process and altered the ink deposition density from 6 to 23 g/m². On textured
wafers the seed layer width remained < 40 μm in average with our own developed seed layer ink. For characterization
purposes the lines were thickened with electro-plated silver. Contact resistivity measurements were performed to
judge the suitability of this metallization scheme. It is shown that contact formation mainly depends on the firing
temperature and less on the amount of deposited ink. Contact resistivities of 1-7 mΩ·cm² for the phosphorus and 6-
12 mΩ·cm² for the boron emitter could be achieved.

description: In this work, we demonstrate how a novel localized metallization process is able to completely
eliminate silver from the back side of silicon solar cell. Different metals, such as nickel and copper, have been
deposited by an innovative technique based on dynamic liquid drop/meniscus able to touch the aluminum rear surface
in specific defined positions. High resolution scanning electron microscopy and compositional microanalysis with
energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis have been employed to evaluate the dispersion of metals within the aluminumsilicon
inter-diffused region. We have performed electrical characterization of solar cells manufactured with novel
nickel- and copper-based rear metallization. We have manufactured nickel- and copper-based solder pads showing
the adhesion as high as 4 N/mm, higher than required according to the DIN EN 50461 specimen. Efficiency increase
of up to 0.48 % has been achieved respect equivalent silver-based rear metallization.

description: We show how background field inhomogeneities modify the non-perturbative structure of the effective action. The simple Borel poles of the Euler-Heisenberg effective action become branch points, and new branch points also appear, indicating new non-perturbative effects. This information is resurgently encoded in the perturbative weak field expansion, and becomes physically significant for strongly inhomogeneous fields. We also show that resurgent extrapolation methods permit the decoding of a surprising amount of non-perturbative information from a relatively modest amount of perturbative input, enabling accurate analytic continuations from weak field to strong field, and of a spatially dependent magnetic background to a time dependent electric background. These extrapolations are far superior to standard WKB and locally constant field approximations.

description: Good passivation property on p-type silicon surface was obtained for SiOx /SiNx stack layer, making
PERC achieve the efficiency of 20.12 %. The cell response on photoluminescence (PL) reveals that SiOx/SiNx stack
layer provides good passivation property even under low irradiance intensity, compared with the AlOx/SiNx stack
layer. Because of the robustness on passivation property, the correlation between photovoltaic I-V curve and the
implied photovoltaic I-V curve, derived from Suns-Voc measurement, shows the consistency in SiOx/SiNx passivated
PERC, as well as in AlOx/SiNx passivated PERC. According to certificated result, it shows that SiOx/SiNx passivated
PERC and full-BSF cell have consistency of efficiency dependence on irradiance intensity, even under the low
intensity of 200 W/m2

description: Deep learning methods have proven to outperform traditional computer vision methods in various areas of image processing. However, the application of deep learning in industrial surface defect detection systems is challenging due to the insufficient amount of training data, the expensive data generation process, the small size, and the rare occurrence of surface defects. From literature and a polymer products manufacturing use case, we identify design requirements which reflect the aforementioned challenges. Addressing these, we conceptualize design principles and features informed by deep learning research. Finally, we instantiate and evaluate the gained design knowledge in the form of actionable guidelines and strategies based on an industrial surface defect detection use case. This article, therefore, contributes to academia as well as practice by (1) systematically identifying challenges for the industrial application of deep learning-based surface defect detection, (2) strategies to overcome these, and (3) an experimental case study assessing the strategies' applicability and usefulness.

PERC cell is the next key technology in its implementation stage from R&D to volume manufacturing. Although
laboratory results of greater than 20% efficient PERC cells have been reported by several groups previously, limited
literature has been published on a production-worthy rear passivation solution for industrial PERC cells. In this paper,
we will present a high performance PERC passivation solution capable of: (i) 653mV Voc on industrial mono PERC
cells with the wafer’s back side surface etched by an industrial wet process tool during the emitter etch process (ii)
643mV Voc on multi-crystalline silicon PERC cell. The results reported were achieved with an integrated CVD AlOx

title: An Investigation Into The Implementation Of The Pamoja Model In Schools. How Effective Is Pamoja's Model In Working With SBCs (Site-Based Coordinators, Functioning As On-Site Facilitators) In Motivating Sustained Learning In The Online Study Mode?
Creators: name: Solomon, Jacob
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2022

description: This work assesses the efficacy of the educational practice of school faculties supporting the motivation of their students studying wholly-online-delivered academic courses in the pre-university final two years of secondary school. Its focus is on the pioneering 2015-2019 work of Pamoja Education, an official provider of IB (International Baccalaureate) fully-online subject courses whose target clientele is the international school community served by the IB, and whose results during that period consistently paralleled the range of IB grades as a whole. In anticipating motivation issues in regular online study, this company requires and formally enables a student-support structure that includes the designation, training, and liaisoning with a faculty member of the student’s school serving in an on-site facilitator role as a site-based coordinator (SBC). This study considers the contribution that this SBC arrangement makes to allow the virtual learning environment to rival formal classroom instruction in terms of academic standards achieved. It investigated the range of motivational challenges faced by online students within the framework of self-determination theory, particularly within the extrinsic domains of student autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Students (14), SBCs (4), and Pamoja staff (2) responded within semi-structured interviews on student motivation and the types of support that the SBCs provide. This data was classified into themes and codes using thematic analysis, which indicated that mainly due to their proximity and thus their relatedness to the student, the SBCs at Pamoja do substantially contribute towards promoting and maintaining sustained student engagement and optimal student performance within that virtual learning environment. However, those findings strongly implied that the nature and intensity of the support needed varied from student to student. The findings indicate that the motivational role of the SBC is recognized by a large body of students as well as SBCs and Pamoja staff as being crucial to student motivational well-being in the virtual environment and that with such support, online delivery could well be a viable means of enabling schools to widen their curriculum without having to employ additional staff.

Negative/positive electrocaloric effect in antiferroelectric squaric acid

description: Using the previously developed model we study the electrocaloric effect (ECE) in antiferroelectric crystals of squaric acid. At low temperatures, the polarization reorientation by the electric field applied along the crystallographic $a$ axis of these crystals is predicted to be a two-stage process, with one of the sublattice polarizations switched twice, by 90$^\circ$ each time. The $T$-$E$ landscapes of the model polarization and entropy are explored. The ECE, characterized by the introduced electric Grüneisen parameter, is found to be negative in the antiferroelectric phase. In the intermediate ferrielectric phase with perpendicular sublattice polarizations it is positive at low fields, but becomes slightly negative below the transition to the ferroelectric phase. In the ferroelectric phase the ECE is positive at all temperatures and fields. Maximal EC temperature shift magnitude is predicted to be just less than -3 K at 200 kV/cm. The supercritical behavior of the Grüneisen parameter in the crossover region between two bicritical end points is explored.

description: We estimate the merger rate of double degenerate binaries containing extremely low mass (ELM) <0.3 Msun white dwarfs in the Galaxy. Such white dwarfs are detectable for timescales of 0.1 Gyr -- 1 Gyr in the ELM Survey; the binaries they reside in have gravitational wave merger times of 0.001 Gyr -- 100 Gyr. To explain the observed distribution requires that most ELM white dwarf binary progenitors detach from the common envelope phase with <1 hr orbital periods. We calculate the local space density of ELM white dwarf binaries and estimate a merger rate of 3e-3/yr over the entire disk of the Milky Way; the merger rate in the halo is 10 times smaller. The ELM white dwarf binary merger rate exceeds by a factor of 40 the formation rate of stable mass transfer AM CVn binaries, marginally exceeds the rate of underluminous supernovae, and is identical to the formation rate of R CrB stars. On this basis, we conclude that ELM white dwarf binaries can be the progenitors of all observed AM CVn and possibly underluminous supernovae, however the majority of He+CO white dwarf binaries go through unstable mass transfer and merge, e.g. into single massive ~1 Msun white dwarfs.

description: In this work, we optimize the front side of p-type Czochralski-grown silicon (Cz-Si) solar cells by
investigating industrial-type phosphorus diffusion processes, and by adapting the front-side metallization. The
utilization of a metallization grid with less coverage, combined with double printing, results in an increase in
conversion efficiency  of 0.5 %abs for p-type Cz-Si H-pattern cells with aluminium back surface field. By
incorporating in-situ oxidation into the diffusion process, we realize a surface doping concentration of ≈ 2·1020 cm-3
for our improved emitter. With this diffusion process, a low emitter dark saturation current density of 85 fA/cm2 is
achieved while maintaining low specific contact resistance ≤ 4 mΩcm2. The application of this emitter results in a
gain in  of 0.4 %abs for p-type Cz-Si high-performance metal wrap trough (HIP-MWT) solar cells in comparison to a
diffusion process without in-situ oxidation. For the best performing HIP-MWT cell,  reaches 20.5 %. Furthermore,
we test the stability and reproducibility of our improved diffusion process in ten runs with 200 wafers each. The mean
sheet resistance is found to be (85 ± 2) Ω/sq, revealing high homogeneity over full-load runs.

description: In order to describe the coupling between the Kerr nonlinearity and the stimulated Brillouin scattering, Mauger et alii recently proposed a system of partial differential equations in three complex amplitudes. We perform here its analytic study by two methods. The first method is to investigate the structure of singularities, in order to possibly find closed form singlevalued solutions obeying this structure. The second method is to look at the infinitesimal symmetries of the system in order to build reductions to a lesser number of independent variables. Our overall conclusion is that the structure of singularities is too intricate to obtain closed form solutions by the usual methods. One of our results is the proof of the nonexistence of traveling waves.

description: All-atom molecular dynamics simulations of 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphocholine lipid membranes reveal a membrane phase transition dictated drastic growth in the interface water (IW) heterogeneity length scales. It acts as an alternate probe to capture the ripple size of the membrane and follows an activated dynamical scaling with the relaxation time scale solely within the gel phase. The results quantify the mostly unknown correlations between the spatio-temporal scales of the IW and membranes at various phases under physiological and supercooled condition

Silicon Solar Cell Improvements

description: 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1328-1332
description: New advanced processes have been developed in the frame of the French National PROTERRA Project based
on techniques that could be transferred into industrial production of high efficiency and low cost c-Si solar cells and modules.
Significant solar cell conversion efficiency improvement was expected using a new cell architecture based on PERC concept
(Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell) favoring both front and rear surface passivation. To perform this structure, it is essential to
integrate innovative concepts developed on technology platforms of research partners to principal steps of industrial solar cell
manufacturing at EDF ENR PWT as selective or homogeneous high-sheet-resistance emitter, advanced front side
metallization, rear surface passivation by dielectric, localized BSF and localized back contact. The passivation effects of the
dielectric layers were studied in the function of their physicochemical properties and applied thermal treatments. The
comparison of different laser sources allowed defining the optimum conditions for the ablation of dielectric layers while
limiting induced damages in the underlying silicon substrate. Different aluminum screen printing pastes were also evaluated
using different contact configurations for their ability to form an effective localized BSF and a good rear side contact while
preserving the high quality of passivation in non-ablated regions. The different methods used to form the front contact as
screen printing and electrochemical deposition were evaluated. The implementation of selected technological bricks in a
complete manufacturing process of solar cells on p-type crystalline silicon substrates of industrial size 156mm x 156mm
yielded a high average conversion efficiency of 19.5 % demonstrating an absolute gain of +0.8 % compared to standard full
area Al-BSF process.

description: Chiral nanophotonic platforms provide a means of creating near fields with both enhanced asymmetric properties and intensities. They can be exploited for optical measurements that allow enantiomeric discrimination at detection levels greater than 6 orders of magnitude than is achieved with conventional chirally sensitive spectroscopic methods based on circularly polarized light. The optimal approach for exploiting nanophotonic platforms for chiral detection would be to use spectroscopic methods that provide a local probe of changes in the near field environment induced by the presence of chiral species. Here we show that surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is such a local probe of the near field environment. We have used it to achieve enantiomeric discrimination of chiral helicoid nanoparticles deposited on left and right-handed enantiomorphs of a chiral metafilm. Hotter electromagnetic hotspots are created for matched combinations of helicoid and metafilms (left-left and right-right), while mismatched combinations leads to significantly cooler electromagnetic hotspots. This large enantiomeric dependency on hotspot intensity is readily detected using SERS with the aid of an achiral Raman reporter molecule. In effect we have used SERS to distinguish between the different EM environments of the plasmonic diastereomers produced by mixing chiral nanoparticles and metafilms. The work demonstrates that by combining chiral nanophotonic platforms with established SERS strategies new avenues in ultrasensitive chiral detection can be opened.

description: The quantum electrodynamical theory of the three-photon transitions in hydrogen-like ions is presented. Emission probabilities of various three-photon decay channels for $ 2p_{3/2} $, $ 2p_{1/2} $ and $ 2s_{1/2} $ states are calculated for the nuclear charge $Z$ values $1\leqslant Z \leqslant 95$. The results are given in two different gauges. The fully relativistic three-photon decay rates of hydrogen-like ions with half-integer nuclear spin are given for transitions between fine structure components. The results can be applied to the tests of the Bose-Einstein statistics for the multiphoton systems.

description: Using the path integral representation of the non-equilibrium dynamics, we compute the most probable path between arbitrary starting and final points, followed by an active particle driven by persistent noise. We focus our attention on the case of active particles immersed in harmonic potentials, where the trajectory can be computed analytically. Once we consider the extended Markovian dynamics where the self-propulsive drive evolves according to an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, we can compute the trajectory analytically with arbitrary conditions on position and self-propulsion velocity. We test the analytical predictions against numerical simulations and we compare the analytical results with those obtained within approximated equilibrium-like dynamics.

description: The potential of an array of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes to detect gamma-ray sources in complex regions has been investigated. The basic characteristics of the gamma-ray instrument have been parametrized using simple analytic representations. In addition to the ideal (Gaussian form) point spread function (PSF), the impact of more realistic non-Gaussian PSFs with tails has been considered. Simulations of isolated point-like and extended sources have been used as a benchmark to test and understand the response of the instrument. The capability of the instrument to resolve multiple sources has been analyzed and the corresponding instrument sensitivities calculated. The results are of particular interest for weak gamma-ray emitters located in crowded regions of the Galactic plane, where the chance of clustering of two or more gamma-ray sources within 1 degree is high.

description: We present a new method that enables the identification and analysis of both transition and metastable conformational states from atomistic or coarse-grained molecular dynamics (MD) trajectories. Our algorithm is presented and studied by using both analytical and actual examples from MD simulations of the helix-forming peptide Ala5, and of a larger system, the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) protein. In all cases, our method identifies automatically the corresponding transition states and metastable conformations in an optimal way, with the input of a set of relevant coordinates, by capturing accurately the intrinsic slowest relaxation rate. Our approach provides a general and easy to implement analysis method that provides unique insight into the molecular mechanism and the rare but crucial rate limiting conformational pathways occurring in complex dynamical systems such as molecular trajectories.

Silicon Solar Cell Improvements

description: 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1333-1336
description: Meyer Burger is offering production tools and processes for the new generation of crystalline module
technology with higher module power and energy yield. This breakthrough is based on the combination of two
revolutionary cell and module concepts: heterojunction solar cells and SWCT module technology. Many >300 Wp
modules were produced with this new concept with a cell production cost as low as 13 c$/Wp. As part of new
developments conducted by the company on these different technological bricks, this paper presents some of the latest
front metallization improvements of heterojunction solar cells dedicated to SWCT technology. Currently silver
consumption for front grid metallization is about 35 mg but based on our most recent experiments, we are confident to
use less than 10 mg silver in the near future. Moreover an increase of module power in the range of 1-2% is expected
thanks to these screen printing improvements.
Generative modeling through multimodal data fusion

description: Humans can process multiple perspectives of the world and generate compound information from them to obtain a richer understanding of the world. In machine learning, generative models have been widely used to comprehend the world by learning the latent representation of the given data. Representation learning is a key step in the process of data understanding, where the goal is to distill interpretable factors associated with the data. However, representation learning approaches focus on data observed in a single modality, such as text, images, or video. In this dissertation, we develop generative models that can fuse multimodal data in order to comprehensively understand it.First, we introduce a model that can learn a latent representation given multimodal data based on the VAE framework. Specifically, we disentangle the latent space into modality-common (shared) and modality-specific (private) spaces. By considering the private latent factors aside from the shared latent factors of all modalities, the proposed model can achieve more precise cross-modal generation or retrieving from one modality to another modality than the model only based on the shared latent space. We demonstrate that our model can be utilized for solving semi-supervised learning or zero-shot learning problems.We further study the importance of perceiving the world from multiple views through trajectory forecasting scenarios. The growing demand for autonomous vehicles is spurring numerous studies of behavior prediction. The existing works underestimate the context such as nearby environment and neighbors while predicting the target's future trajectories.We propose a Conditional Multimodal VAE to generate trajectory predictions conditioned on this multimodal context. We show that the proposed model is able to achieve collision-free predictions from the surrounding environment or neighbors in both real and simulated data.

description: When evolutionary games are contested in structured populations, the degree of each player in the network plays an important role. If they exist, hubs often determine the fate of the population in remarkable ways. Recent research based on optimal percolation in random networks has shown, however, that the degree is neither the sole nor the best predictor of influence in complex networks. Low-degree nodes may also be optimal influencers if they are hierarchically linked to hubs. Taking this into account leads to the formalism of collective influence in complex networks, which as we show here, has far-reaching implications for the favorable resolution of social dilemmas. In particular, there exists an optimal hierarchical depth for the determination of collective influence that we use to describe the potency of players for passing their strategies, which depends on the strength of the social dilemma. Interestingly, the degree, which corresponds to the baseline depth zero, is optimal only when the temptation to defect is small. Our research reveals that evolutionary success stories are related to spreading processes which are rooted in favorable hierarchical structures that extend beyond local neighborhoods.
