description: Laser doping or laser diffusion is a well-known process which serves to enhance the efficiency of
crystalline solar cells. An increase of absolute cell efficiency of 0.3 – 0.5% has been demonstrated by using this method [1,2].
In this process phosphorus is diffused from the surface into the bulk silicon at the locations were silicon is melted by laser
irradiation. These locations are identical to the later contact finger locations. The sheet resistance of the laser treated areas are
strongly reduced, compared to the non-treated area, e.g. from 120-150 Ohm/sq to typically 20 - 30Ohm/sq.
Although the process itself is well known by now, the debate of how to apply the laser beam in the most efficient and
time saving way is still going on. In this work we present a unique beam splitter technology which opens the path to
simultaneous processing of several 10 to more than 100 contact fingers at the same time. In combination with a green laser
with long pulses, which reduces surface and bulk damage to a minimum, a technology for very fast laser doping of high
quality solar cells is available.

description: The electrostatic potential is applied at core region of the atoms to estimate the CuI/CuInS2 valence
band offset (VBO) by first principle calculation. At the CuI/CuInS2 interface, the VBO, evaluated 0.37 eV with
CuInS2 valence band maximum above in coherent case, is a bit larger than the experimental value (~ 0.1 eV); in the
absence of strain, the VBO of about 0.15 eV, is close to the experimental value. Due to the existence of CuIn5S8
structure in CuInS2, the p-d repulsion effect has weaker contribution to the VBO in CuIn5S8 than in CuInS2, resulting
in a smaller VBO for CuI/CuInS2 interface. This small VBO indicates that CuI as buffer layer is quite suitable for CuInS2 cell application.

description: The use of pulsars as astrophysical clocks for gravitational wave experiments demands the highest possible timing precision. Pulse times of arrival (TOAs) are limited by stochastic processes that occur in the pulsar itself, along the line of sight through the interstellar medium, and in the measurement process. On timescales of seconds to hours, the TOA variance exceeds that from template-fitting errors due to additive noise. We assess contributions to the total variance from two additional effects: amplitude and phase jitter intrinsic to single pulses and changes in the interstellar impulse response from scattering. The three effects have different dependencies on time, frequency, and pulse signal-to-noise ratio. We use data on 37 pulsars from the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves to assess the individual contributions to the overall intraday noise budget for each pulsar. We detect jitter in 22 pulsars and estimate the average value of RMS jitter in our pulsars to be $\sim 1\%$ of pulse phase. We examine how jitter evolves as a function of frequency and find evidence for evolution. Finally, we compare our measurements with previous noise parameter estimates and discuss methods to improve gravitational wave detection pipelines.

LECTOTYPE: AMNH 692661, adult male, collected on Yela (5 Rossel) Island, 11.20S, 154.10E (PNG, 1984), Louisiade Archipelago, Milne Bay Province, Papua New Guinea, on 27 January 1898, by Albert S. Meek (no. 1306). From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: Hartert did not designate a type in the original description nor did he mention one in the following publication (Hartert, 1899a: 79) in which he reported on the entire first collection by Meek from Rossel. Only later did Rothschild and Hartert (1903a: 224) cite Meek’s specimen no. 1306 as the type, thereby designating it the lectotype, and list the other specimens collected by Meek on Rossel as well, together with field numbers. Paralectotypes are: AMNH 692662–692668, three males and four females, collected in January–February 1898. Of these, AMNH 692668 was exchanged to FMNH in the 1960s.

description: The optical and electrical effects of hydrogenaterd silicon nitride (SiNx:H) films deposited on N-type FZ
silicon wafers by radio frequency remote plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (RF-RPECVD) technique were
investigated. Optical reflectance, effective minority carrier lifetimes, bond density and SiNx:H/Si interfacial properties
are evaluated after SiNx:H deposition. The dependence on gas flow ratio was estimated. In addition, the effect of
thermal annealing on effective minority carrier lifetime improvement was examined. Effective minority carrier
lifetimes were improved after deposition and further improvement of exceeding chemical passivation (CP) was
realized after forming gas annealing in N2 ambient. Improvement of effective minority carrier lifetime after annealing
correlates to transfer of hydrogen atoms in SiNx:H film. Reflectance was reduced to values lower than 1% at
wavelengths near 600-800nm. Refractive index of the deposited SiNx:H films ranged 1.8- 2.1 and increased with
increasing SiH4 flow rate. Film thickness ranged 73-97nm and decreased with increasing SiH4 flow rate.
title: 'Pinholes in my arms': The vicious cycle of vascular access
Creators: name: Kelly, Linda J.
Publisher: name: Edinburgh Napier University

description: BACKGROUND: Vascular Access Devices (VAD) are essential for the delivery of intravenous therapies. As patients often live with these devices in place for many months, it is important to understand how patients with cancer make sense of living with these devices.
AIM: To explore, in-depth, the lived experience of patients with a Vascular Access Device (VAD).
DESIGN / METHODS: This study followed a qualitative approach using Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) principles. A purposive sampling technique was used to identify eleven patients with cancer who had a vascular access device in situ and were willing to share their experiences. Semi-structured interviews were the data collection tool. Interviews were digitally recorded, transcribed, and analysed using IPA principles.
FINDINGS: Four superordinate themes emerged from the interview data: The self under attack; Being rescued / Being robbed; Protection of self / Protection of others; and Bewilderment and dismay at the lack of staff competence. The study discovered that the insertion of a long-term VAD changes the self and affects the psychological, social, and personal self and impacts on self-esteem and self-image. The insertion of a VAD results in restrictions and limitations to life and can lead to living with distrust and fear. Despite this, VADs are accepted and are eventually embodied. These findings add to existing knowledge by developing the meaning of living with a VAD. To illuminate this understanding and articulate the new knowledge, a conceptual framework entitled the Vicious Cycle of Vascular Access was developed.
DISCUSSION: When the decision is made to insert a long-term VAD, both the body and mind should be considered. Steps should be taken to improve the lives of people living with a VAD through improved education and training for Health Care Professionals and by increasing support for people with VAD.

description: SiC filaments are known to cause severe ohmic shunts in mc-Si solar cells. However, not all of them
contribute to ohmic shunting. In order to obtain information on how the SiC filaments are embedded inside the bulk
material, we demonstrate a novel method which reveals the 3d geometry of the embedded structures at high
resolution (below 1 micron). This method is based on an improved algorithm for extended depth-of-focus imaging,
evaluating a stack of about 50 IR microscopy images by considering their local contrast. For comparison, a
commercial deconvolution algorithm with a depth-dependent point-spread function is used. The resulting 3d images
permit the electrical characterization of embedded SiC filaments, knowing exactly their geometry. Further, new
insights on the growing mechanisms of SiC filaments can be expected.

description: In this paper we report preliminary results on the preparation of a polycrystalline silicon solar cell
absorber layer by epitaxial thickening on a large grained seed layer. The latter is obtained from an amorphous
silicon double layer p+/p- prepared by PECVD and crystallized by Nickel mediated crystallization. Before the
deposition of the p- absorber layer the Ni precipitated at the grain boundaries of the p+/p- layer has to be removed.
Epitaxial growth is observed keeping the same plane orientation as the seed layer. Polycrystalline silicon thin films
with grain size larger than 100 microns can be obtained by this procedure.

description: The efficiency of the photovoltaic system depends on the degree of use and conversion of the solar radiation. Improving the efficiency of the photovoltaic systems can thus be done by increasing the incident radiation flow (by orienting the panel in order to reach the maximum collection degree and/or by concentrating the radiation) or by reducing the losses by choosing the appropriate materials and constructive solutions. The paper describes the
concept of a virtual prototyping platform which, based on minimal input data can optimize the PV systems. The virtual prototyping platform consists of four parts (1) modelling the solar radiations, based on specific, field data, (2) modelling the electrical power output of the PV module; (3) virtual prototyping of the tracking system; (4) virtual prototyping of the tracked PV module, integrated in the built environment. This approach allows the optimization of the tracking algorithm and, consequently of the energy response of the tracked PV module.

description: In this paper, we report on the sulphurisation/selenisation of CuSb metallic precursors. The precursors were deposited
by magnetron sputtering on molybdenum coated glass substrates from elemental targets. They were coated with an
evaporated Se and/or S layer before annealing in a tube furnace at temperature of 500 °C. The thickness of the Se and
S layers was adjusted to yield a range of compositions. The films were characterised by X-ray diffraction, secondary
electron microscopy, secondary ion mass spectroscopy and photoelectrochemical measurements. Se-free films
deposited on molybdenum/glass crystallised into Cu3SbS3 with a monoclinic structure. Chalcogenides converted at
500 °C showed p-type conductivity and energy band gaps varying from 1.2eV to 1.8eV depending on the S/Se ratio.
Quantum efficiency curves were recorded over the spectral range 400-1300nm using a 3-electrode configuration in
aqueous Eu(NO3)3. The measurements indicate that the films fabricated are photoactive and active junctions are formed.

description: Double heterojunction p-InGaN/i-InGaN/n-GaN solar cells have been fabricated and characterized in
this study. Two kinds of sapphire substrate, including conventional sapphire substrate (CSS) and pattern sapphire
substrates (PSS), were used for epitaxial growth in this experiment setup. High open-circuit (VOC) of 2.05 V and 2.08
V of double heterojunction InGaN-based solar cell grown on CSS and PSS substrate were demonstrated, respectively.
Being difference with solar cell grown on CSS substrate, solar cell grwon on PSS substrate shows an improvement of
27.6% in short-circuit current. Such an improvement can be contributed to the low edge-dislocation density of
epitaxial films and the increase of light absorption path due to scattering at patterned surface for solar cell grown on
PSS substrate.

From the Mathews Collection (no. 3036) via the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description; the only locality mentioned was Cairns. In addition to Mathews’ collection label and Mathews and Rothschild type labels, the holotype also bears a ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it served as the model for Mathews (1924: pl. 517, opp. p. 330, text p. 331), where it is confirmed as the type of M. o. harterti. Mathews had three additional specimens collected by Schraeder at Cairns, paratypes AMNH 692516 (Mathews no. 3038), sexed as a female, but label changed to male, August 1908; AMNH 592517 (3037), male, August 1908; AMNH 592519 (3039), female, July 1908. AMNH 692520 (16883) collected by T.H. Bowyer Bower at Cairns on 14 January 1885, was not cataloged by Mathews until 15 May 1913, long after the publication of harterti, and it is not a paratype.

title: The challenge of career progression and work-life balance in consulting business in Germany
Creators: name: Jekosch, Mara
Publisher: name: Edinburgh Napier University
Year: 2020

description: This thesis examines how individuals define and understand work-life balance and career progression in the consulting business sector in Germany. Since this client-focused work environment requires travel and long working weeks, employees face challenges that impact on their personal life and health. The thesis explores, through a series of qualitative interviews, how the research participants attempt to address and cope with work demands and how they seek to achieve a better balance between work and non-work activities (such as children, household, care of parents, hobbies) whilst being able progress in their chosen career. The wider context of this paper is a triangle of consulting business, career progression and work-life balance. Demographic changes; competition for skilled workers, which is referred to as the ‘war for talent’, impact organisational success in a competitive business. Organisations need to respond to these changes through work-life practices and a supportive organisational culture if they are to attract and retain professionals. Based on 28 telephone interviews, the data indicates differences in employee perceptions of worklife balance and career progression. While time flexibility and work-life practices are often provided and named as key to managing work and non-work activities, participants describe an unspoken expectation to be present and work longer hours in order to progress up the career ladder. Participants propose ideas that could allow them to progress their career in balance with other non-work responsibilities. For this challenge, personal responsibility plays a central role. This thesis (Doctor of Business Administration) is valuable for employees to reflect on their own work-life balance and career and to adapt the ideas of participants to manage existing challenges. The results can equally be used by organisations to reframe work-life practices and culture to support their employees in better managing their work and non-work lives to retain and attract talent in a competitive business environment.

description: Transition-metal doped chalcopyrite thin films have been proposed as a suitable absorber material for
intermediate band solar cells. In this work CuGa1-xFexS2 thin films were grown by vacuum coevaporation at a
substrate temperature of 400°C with various amounts of Fe incorporated. The optical response of thin films grown on
soda-lime glass was evaluated by transmittance/reflectance measurements. Photovoltaic devices were fabricated from
CuGa1-xFexS2 thin films concurrently deposited on Mo-coated glass substrates using the standard chalcopyrite
glass/Mo/absorber/CdS/ZnO device structure. The device characteristics of these solar cells were evaluated by
current-voltage and quantum efficiency measurements. For Fe-containing CuGaS2 films distinct subgap absorption
bands at 1.2 eV and 1.9 eV are detected, which increase in prominence with increasing Fe content. On the other
hand, the solar cell parameters were found to deteriorate with increasing iron content indicating an increase in nonradiative
recombination when high levels of iron are incorporated. However, for the lowest iron content (x=0.003) an
increase in the subgap photoresponse at about 1.9 eV is observed which is attributed to a combination of sufficient
intermediate band absorption and carrier collection at this dilution level.

close to unity, the poly-Si films absorb surprisingly little oxygen atoms with densities on the order of 1018 /cm3,
which is equivalent to those of a-Si-protected device-grade microcrystalline Si (μc-Si) films formed by conventional
chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The poly-Si films show higher optical absorption coefficient than crystalline Si
(c-Si) especially in the range less than 3 eV, meaning effective absorption of sunlight in a long wavelength region.
The surface roughness of the poly-Si films, spontaneously formed through crystallization process, effectively acts to
decrease optical reflectance, resulting in optical reflectance of anti-reflection-coated poly-Si films of as low as 3% on
an average in a visible region without any microfabrication processes. According to PC1D simulation, more than
14% conversion efficiency is predicted using the parameters obtained experimentally, indicating high feasibility of
using the flash-lamp-crystallized poly-Si films as a thin-film solar cell material.

description: We analyze deterministic and random temporal variations in dispersion measure (DM) from the full three-dimensional velocities of pulsars with respect to the solar system, combined with electron-density variations on a wide range of length scales. Previous treatments have largely ignored the pulsar's changing distance while favoring interpretations involving the change in sky position from transverse motion. Linear trends in pulsar DMs seen over 5-10~year timescales may signify sizable DM gradients in the interstellar medium (ISM) sampled by the changing direction of the line of sight to the pulsar. We show that motions parallel to the line of sight can also account for linear trends, for the apparent excess of DM variance over that extrapolated from scintillation measurements, and for the apparent non-Kolmogorov scalings of DM structure functions inferred in some cases. Pulsar motions through atomic gas may produce bow-shock ionized gas that also contributes to DM variations. We discuss possible causes of periodic or quasi-periodic changes in DM, including seasonal changes in the ionosphere, annual variation of the solar elongation angle, structure in the heliosphere-ISM boundary, and substructure in the ISM. We assess the solar cycle's role on the amplitude of ionospheric and solar-wind variations. Interstellar refraction can produce cyclic timing variations from the error in transforming arrival times to the solar system barycenter. We apply our methods to DM time series and DM gradient measurements in the literature and assess consistency with a Kolmogorov medium. Finally, we discuss the implications of DM modeling in precision pulsar timing experiments.

description: Myzomela obscura grisescens Hartert Myzomela obscura grisescens Hartert, 1905a: 235 (Brock’s Creek). Now Myzomela obscura obscura Gould, 1843. See Salomonsen, 1967: 352, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 337–338, Christidis and Boles, 2008: 185– 191, and Higgins et al., 2008: 638–639. HOLOTYPE: AMNH 692480, adult male, collected at Brocks Creek, 13.28S, 131.25E (USBGN, 1957), Northern Territory, Australia, on 9 August 1902, by J.T. Tunney (no. R.635). From the Rothschild Collection. COMMENTS: Hartert gave Tunney’s field number of the holotype in the original description and listed six additional specimens, which are paratypes. Of those, four are in AMNH: Brocks Creek, AMNH 692478 (Tunney no. R.633), male, 7 August 1902; AMNH 692479 (R. 637), male, 5 August 1902; AMNH 692481 (R.636), female [changed to male on label], 7 August 1902; east of Mary River, AMNH 692482 (736), male, 16 September 1902. Tunney’s collection was studied by Hartert and most of the specimens were divided between WAM and Rothschild, with a selection going to BMNH (Hartert, 1905a: 194). Of the four paratypes in AMNH, two had been in the Mathews Collection. Mathews obtained AMNH 692479 from WAM (it bears their number 7711) and cataloged it as his no. 5322. AMNH 692482 had also been in the Mathews collection, but it is not clear from whom he obtained it. The two paratypes still unaccounted for bear Tunney numbers 634 from Brocks Creek and no. 735 from the South Alligator River.

Search for supersymmetry in the multijet and missing transverse momentum final state in pp collisions at 13 TeV

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)

description: A search for new physics is performed based on all-hadronic events with large missing transverse momentum produced in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 13 TeV. The data sample, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2.3 inverse femtobarns, was collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC in 2015. The data are examined in search regions of jet multiplicity, tagged bottom quark jet multiplicity, missing transverse momentum, and the scalar sum of jet transverse momenta. The observed numbers of events in all search regions are found to be consistent with the expectations from standard model processes. Exclusion limits are presented for simplified supersymmetric models of gluino pair production. Depending on the assumed gluino decay mechanism, and for a massless, weakly interacting, lightest neutralino, lower limits on the gluino mass from 1440 to 1600 GeV are obtained, significantly extending previous limits.

title: Exploration of management and leadership techniques that enhance joint working in an Agile Project
Creators: name: Heinemann, Bianca
Publisher: name: Edinburgh Napier University
Year: 2020

description: The purpose of this research is to explore the connection between management techniques and leadership techniques that influence collaboration in projects. The specific objective of this study is to identify the way in which (project) managers and leaders can positively influence the cooperation of each project member. It is not the task of this study to examine individual factors, risks or barriers that influence project success, and this study is unable to encompass the entire evaluations of possible guidelines, (process) models, standards, technologies or methods. The focus is on work obstacles that confront project members to show possibilities for working together while identifying practical solutions for managers and leaders. This study highlights the personal obstacles with the approach of agile (e.g., Scrum) and hybrid (e.g., V-Model® or waterfall, and Scrum) methodologies, but with the focus on techniques that can be used in a project. The study follows a semi-structured interview design with in-depth thematic data analysis. Interviews are used to understand the impediments between the interviewee and their work. The analysis examines the real view of the project members with a realistic view of the researcher. Study results suggest that team members have a pivotal role, and important aspects of joint working are revealed in the work arrangement and execution of the project work. Overall, the findings should make an important contribution to enhance collaboration in projects and generate fresh insight into manage and lead projects.
Geodesically Complete Metrics Induce Boundary Non-locality in Holography: Consequences for the Entanglement Entropy

description: We show explicitly that the full structure of IIB string theory is needed to remove the non-localities that arise in boundary conformal theories that border hyperbolic spaces on AdS$_5$. Specifically, using the Caffarelli/Silvestri\cite{caffarelli}, Graham/Zworski\cite{graham}, and Chang/Gonzalez\cite{chang:2010} extension theorems, we prove that the boundary operator conjugate to bulk p-forms with negative mass in geodesically complete metrics is inherently a non-local operator, specifically the fractional conformal Laplacian. The non-locality, which arises even in compact spaces, applies to any degree p-form such as a gauge field. We show that the boundary theory contains fractional derivatives of the longitudinal components of the gauge field if the gauge field in the bulk along the holographic direction acquires a mass via the Higgs mechanism. The non-locality is shown to vanish once the metric becomes incomplete, for example, either 1) asymptotically by adding N transversely stacked Dd-branes or 2) exactly by giving the boundary a brane structure and including a single transverse Dd-brane in the bulk. The original Maldacena conjecture within IIB string theory corresponds to the former. In either of these proposals, the location of the Dd-branes places an upper bound on the entanglement entropy because the minimal bulk surface in the AdS reduction is ill-defined at a brane interface. Since the brane singularities can be circumvented in the full 10-dimensional spacetime, we conjecture that the true entanglement entropy must be computed from the minimal surface in 10-dimensions, which is of course not minimal in the AdS$_5$ reduction.

description: Stauroneis terryi D.B. Ward ex T.C. Palmer is a diatom so far reported from only five locations in the states of Connecticut, Massachusetts and Maine, USA, where it was collected in 1890—1911. There were no records of this large and rather conspicuous species in any collections made after 1911 despite the considerable number of diatom surveys and paleolimnological studies conducted in the northeastern USA. We studied material from the type locality of this species to document its morphology with SEM, and screened diatom slides representing recent and subfossil samples collected from 169 lakes in northeastern North America from 1979 to 2017 for the presence of this species. Using both whole-slide scanning and traditional microscopy, we detected S. terryi in 15 lakes in the northeastern USA north of 41° N latitude and in five lakes of Labrador and adjacent Quebec, Canada. In the USA, S. terryi populations have declined since pre-industrial times, although the species is still present in a few lakes with relatively undisturbed watersheds. Our observations demonstrate the value of museum collections for generating data on diatom ecology and biogeography and the need for the development of high-throughput methods of extracting information from diatom slides and images.

description: For the analysis of outdoor monitored PV data it is important to have both good quality and complete inputs including setup data, date and time, plane of array irradiance, module and ambient temperatures, wind speed, string dc voltage and current (if available), inverter ac power – all at least once an hour.
However for various reasons some of these values might be missing or incorrect. Summing energy yield each measurement into yearly kWh/kWp figures means that these errors may not be noticed. Consequently, models developed to analyse output data from correct and complete input data will be invalid. This paper describes how to analyse data if some of the inputs are missing and shows how to correct performance.
title: Investigating the impact of a spinal mobilisation intervention in people with multiple sclerosis
Creators: name: Hamilton, Rebecca Isabel
Publisher: name: Edinburgh Napier University
Year: 2020

description: Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) has many disabling symptoms due to weakened signal propagation in the central nervous system. Manual therapeutics are often seen to have a positive effect on these symptoms with limited information as to why. The purpose of this project was to investigate a spinal mobilisation intervention, objectively measuring the changes it may be causing to muscle quality and movement patterns as a contribution to research in MS therapeutics.
Methods: A series of 3 studies were designed to investigate the effects of a spinal mobilisation intervention on muscle quality and movement patterns. Study 1 tested people with lower back pain (LBP) as a pilot population (n=40), testing for an immediate effect on muscle quality. Study 2 replicated this with MS patients (n=20) assessing muscle quality, balance, and pain. Study 3 tested the intervention in a longer-term 4 bout study (n=20), assessing muscle quality, balance, pain, and fatigue.
Results: Significant muscle stiffness reductions were seen in the LBP population post the intervention (p = 0.01, η2partial = 0.15). Baseline stiffness was found as a significant contributor (p = 0.002, R2 = 0.22). These muscular results were not replicated with the MS population. However, significant improvements in self-reported pain as a result of the intervention were revealed (p = 0.008, η2partial = 0.33). Study 3 findings demonstrated significant improvements from baseline in balance and fatigue measures as a result of the intervention. High variability in the data are seen within the MS population.
Conclusions: Four sessions were not sufficient to elicit a significant response in muscle quality as a result of the intervention in an MS population. However, significant improvements in balance and fatigue were revealed. Given the variability from the MS population, it is necessary to undertake a longer-term study and normalise baseline muscle quality values.
