description: In the development of high efficiency crystalline Si solar cells, decreasing bulk and surface
recombination velocities of the minority carriers is vital. As the bulk recombination could be suppressed by
enhancing the material quality, the effect of surface recombination on cell performance becomes more dominant.
Also, recent studies have revealed that the area under the metal contacted region needs to be passivated to minimize
the carrier recombination. The passivation of front and back surface of the cell can be achieved using different
techniques and materials. Dry oxidation is a well-known process by the industry and requires high temperature
treatment that increases thermal budget of the whole fabrication sequence and also degrades bulk lifetime. For this
reason, a low temperature technique like wet chemical oxidation is highly desirable for the growth of thin oxide
layers. In this work, 4 different wet chemical oxidation techniques based on nitric acid (HNO3), hydrogen peroxide
(H2O2), RCA II (HCl: H2O2) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) solutions were studied and corresponding cell
performances was compared with that of dry oxidation.

description: N-type silicon bifacial solar cells with forward-bias-plated Ni/Cu front contacts are presented in this
work. Two different front-side metallization processes were compared in this study, including conventional Ag/Al
paste printing and Ni/Cu forward bias plating. We used laser to ablate the passivation layers on front side of the cells
and thus the boron-doped silicon was exposed for Ni/Cu forward-bias plating. For the Ag/Al paste printed cells, 3 bus
bars/90 fingers front electrode pattern design was used. For the Ni/Cu plated cells, 3 bus bars/90 fingers and 4 bus
bars/110 fingers electrode pattern designs were used to observe the effect of electrode patterns on cell performances.
We found that increasing bus bar number and finger number of the plated cells can obviously improve the fill factor
(FF). Besides, the relationship between the electrode pattern designs and FF of the n-type bifacial cells were predicted
by the simulation. The resistivity of the plated metal was about 1.9 μΩcm which was evaluated from the line
resistance and cross-section area of the plated finger electrodes.

description: Background: Healthcare workers (HCWs) are considered at elevated risk of experiencing mental health disorders in working with patients with COVID-19. Objective: To estimate the prevalence of common mental health disorders in HCWs based in hospitals where pandemic-affected patients were treated. Method: Databases were searched for studies published before 30 March 2020. Quantitative synthesis was used to obtain estimates of the prevalence of mental health disorders in four time windows, determined a priori (the acute phase, i.e. during and up to 1.5 months post-pandemic; 1.5–5.9 months; 6–11.9 months; 12 months and later). Results: Nineteen studies met the review criteria. They predominantly addressed the acute phase of the SARS outbreak in Asia. The most studied outcomes were clinically significant post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) and general psychiatric caseness. For clinically significant PTSS in the acute phase, the prevalence estimate was 23.4% (95% CI 16.3, 31.2; N = 4147; I2 = 96.2%); in the 12 months plus window, the estimate was 11.9% (8.4, 15.8; N = 1136; I2 = 74.3%). For general psychiatric caseness, prevalence estimates were acute phase, 34.1% (18.7, 51.4; N = 3971; I2 = 99.1%); 6–12 months, 17.9% (13.1, 23.2; N = 223; I2 = 0.0%); 12 months plus, 29.3% (6.0, 61.0; N = 710; I2 = 97.8%). No differences between doctors and nurses with respective to PTSS and general psychiatric caseness were apparent in the acute phase. Conclusions: Mental health disorders are particularly common in HCWs working with pandemic-afflicted patients immediately following a pandemic, but the course of disorders following this period is poorly understood. There was considerable heterogeneity between studies, likely linked to methodological differences. More extended follow up of HCWs is needed. • Mental health difficulties, in particular post-traumatic stress, are common in healthcare workers working with patients infected during a pandemic. The long-term impact of working in such environments is poorly understood, however.
Identifying detrimental effects for multi-orbital superconductivity - Application to Sr$_2$RuO$_4$

Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)

description: We propose a general scheme to probe the compatibility of arbitrary pairing states with a given normal state Hamiltonian by the introduction of a concept called superconducting fitness. This new quantity gives a direct measure of the suppression of the superconducting critical temperature in presence of key symmetry breaking fields. A merit of the superconducting fitness is that it can be used as a tool to identify non-trivial mechanisms to suppress superconductivity under various external influences, in particular, magnetic fields or distortions, even in complex multi-orbital systems. In the light of this new concept we analyse the multi-band superconductor Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ and propose a new mechanism for the suppression of superconductivity in multi-orbital systems, which we call inter-orbital effect, as a possible explanation for the unusual limiting feature observed in the upper critical field of this material.

description: We consider the limiting current from an emitting patch whose size is much smaller than the anode-cathode spacing. The limiting current is formulated in terms of an integral equation. It is solved iteratively, first to numerically recover the classical one-dimensional Child-Langmuir law, including Jaffe's extension to a constant, nonzero electron emission velocity. We extend to 2-dimensions in which electron emission is restricted to an infinitely long stripe with infinitesimally narrow stripe width, so that the emitted electrons form an electron sheet. We next extend to 3-dimensions in which electron emission is restricted to a square tile (or a circular patch) with an infinitesimally small tile size (or patch radius), so that the emitted electrons form a needle-like line charge. Surprisingly, for the electron needle problem, we only find the null solution for the total line charge current, regardless of the assumed initial electron velocity. For the electron sheet problem, we also find only the null solution for the total sheet current if the electron emission velocity is assumed to be zero, and the total maximum sheet current becomes a finite, nonzero value if the electron emission velocity is assumed to be nonzero. These seemingly paradoxical results are shown to be consistent with the earlier works of the Child-Langmuir law of higher dimensions. They are also consistent with, or perhaps even anticipated by, the more recent theories and simulations on thermionic cathodes that used realistic work function distributions to account for patchy, nonuniform electron emission. The mathematical subtleties are discussed.

description: In this paper, we present our study of fill factor (FF) loss mechanism for silicon heterojunction solar
cells (SHJ) in relation to the quality of surface passivation. The effective minority carrier lifetime (eff) as a function
of carrier injection density (n) has been modeled to identify the limiting factor of FF in our research. We have found
that defects at a-Si:H/c-Si interface can cause low-quality surface passivation, which can be characterized by minority
carrier lifetime at low-injection level, leading to reduction of fill factor. We propose a new mechanism that the
presence of shallow defects with positive charges at the interface contributes to degradation of fill factor of SHJ cells.
This hypothesis was verified using an AFORS-HET simulation tool in our study. Based on this study, we have
developed an anti-contamination tray for wafer handling at the PECVD processing step. Our results show
improvement of fill factor by an absolute value of 2%. SHJ solar cells with high efficiency of greater than 23% have
been successfully fabricated using this technique.

description: We report on the temperature dependence of the $ZrTe_5$ electronic properties, studied at equilibrium and out of equilibrium, by means of time and angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. Our results unveil the dependence of the electronic band structure across the Fermi energy on the sample temperature. This finding is regarded as the dominant mechanism responsible for the anomalous resistivity observed at T* $\sim$ 160 K along with the change of the charge carrier character from holelike to electronlike. Having addressed these long-lasting questions, we prove the possibility to control, at the ultrashort time scale, both the binding energy and the quasiparticle lifetime of the valence band. These experimental evidences pave the way for optically controlling the thermoelectric and magnetoelectric transport properties of $ZrTe_5$.

description: We have developed the boron emitter for n-type monocrystalline silicon photovoltaic cells and
achieved the conversion efficiency of 21.53% by passivated emitter and rear totally diffused (PERT) structure with a
total area of 239 cm2. The center area of the cell shows 22.08% (222.0 cm2). The developed cells contain a more
deeply diffused and lightly doped boron emitter to obtain higher efficiency than the previous cell we have reported.
We have also studied a rear emitter structure in the n-type monocrystalline silicon PERT photovoltaic cell by a
2D device simulation and the experimental results; especially the correlation between substrate resistivity and the
photovoltaic property. The Voc of rear emitter cell is nearly constant regardless of the substrate resistivity. On the
other hand, the Jsc is decreased sharply by lowering substrate resistivity. The Jsc of 0.55 Ω·cm substrate is 5 % lower
than that of 5.6 Ω·cm one. These results are attributed to front surface field (FSF) effect which shows a dependence
on the substrate resistivity. To achieve higher Jsc for the cells with FSF, the barrier height for the minority carriers are
important.

description: We investigate the impacts of ion beam irradiation methods in processes of phosphorus (P)
implantation on P-emitter silicon solar cell performance. P implanted emitter was fabricated on p-type CZ silicon
wafer. Following the wafer texture, P+ ions were implanted with tilt and step-by-step wafer rotation. The textured
solar cell has a three-dimensional shape of tetrahedral pyramids in surface. Incident angle of ion beam on the textured
surface depends on tilt and wafer rotation. Thus, tilt and wafer rotation are the key factors of as-implantation depth
profile, resulting in the improvement of cell efficiency. We found cell efficiency increased with increase of tilt angle
within a range of 7° to 35°, or decreased of rotation angle within a range of 15° to 90°. Cell efficiency is 19.15% as
implantation of P is performed with an acceleration voltage of 3 keV, a total dose of 4×1015 atoms/cm2, a tilt angle of
35°, and a rotation angle of 15°.

description: Topology is now securely established as a means to explore and classify electronic states in crystalline solids. This review provides a gentle but firm introduction to topological electronic band structure suitable for new researchers in the field. I begin by outlining the relevant concepts from topology, then give a summary of the theory of non-interacting electrons in periodic potentials. Next, I explain the concepts of the Berry phase and Berry curvature, and derive key formulae. The remainder of the article deals with how these ideas are applied to classify crystalline solids according to the topology of the electronic states, and the implications for observable properties. Among the topics covered are the role of symmetry in determining band degeneracies in momentum space, the Chern number and Z2 topological invariants, surface electronic states, two- and three-dimensional topological insulators, and Weyl and Dirac semimetals

description: We study the shadows cast by the different types of rotating regular black holes viz. Ayón-Beato-García {(ABG)}, Hayward, and Bardeen. These black holes have in addition to the total mass ($M$) and rotation parameter ($a$), different parameters as electric charge ($Q$), deviation parameter ($g$), and magnetic charge ($g_{*}$), respectively. Interestingly, the size of the shadow is affected by these parameters in addition to the rotation parameter. We found that the radius of the shadow in each case decreases monotonically and the distortion parameter increases when the value of these parameters increase. A comparison with the standard Kerr case is also investigated. We have also studied the influence of the plasma environment around regular black holes to discuss its shadow. The presence of the plasma affects the apparent size of the regular black hole's shadow to be increased due to two effects (i) gravitational redshift of the photons and (ii) radial dependence of plasma density.

description: (Abridged) High-mass star formation is far less understood than low-mass star formation. It entails molecular outflows, which disturb the protostellar clump. Studying these outflows and the shocked gas they cause is key for a better understanding of this process. This study aims to characterise the behaviour of molecular outflows in the most massive protostellar sources in the Southern Galaxy by looking for evolutionary trends and associating shocked gas with outflow activity. We present APEX SEPIA180 observations (beamwidth $\sim$36") of SiO outflow candidates of a sample of 32 luminous and dense clumps, candidates to harbouring Hot Molecular Cores. We study the SiO(4-3) line emission, an unambiguous tracer of shocked gas and recent outflow activity, the HCO$^+$(2-1) and H$^{13}$CO$^+$(2-1) lines. 78% of our sample present SiO emission. Nine of these also have wings in the HCO$^+$ line, indicating outflow activity. The SiO emission of these 9 sources is more intense and wider than the rest, suggesting that the outflows in this group are faster and more energetic. Three positive correlations between the outflow properties were found, which suggest that more energetic outflows bear to mobilise more material. No correlation was found between the evolutionary stage indicator $L/M$ and SiO outflow properties, supporting that outflows happen throughout the whole high-mass star formation process. We conclude that sources with both SiO emission and HCO$^+$ wings and sources with only SiO emission are in virtually the same advanced stage of evolution in the high-mass star formation process. The former present more massive and more powerful SiO outflows than the latter. Thus, looking for more outflow signatures such as HCO$^+$ wings could help identify more massive and active massive star-forming regions in samples of similarly evolved sources, as well as sources with older outflow activity.

description: Background: The 11th edition of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) introduces Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Complex Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) as two distinct trauma-related disorders. Numerous studies support the proposed symptom structure of ICD-11 CPTSD in adults, but only a few studies have examined CPTSD symptom structure in children, reporting diverging results. To assess ICD-11 CPTSD in children, the International Trauma Questionnaire (ITQ) was recently adapted for children and adolescents (ITQ-CA), with no validated German version available yet. Objective: This study aimed (1) to test the symptom structure of ICD-11 CPTSD in a sample of trauma-exposed foster children using the ITQ-CA, and (2) to examine the concurrent, convergent and discriminant validity of the German ITQ-CA. Method: Altogether, 161 Austrian foster children completed a set of standardized measures, resulting in a final sample of 135 trauma-exposed foster children meeting the inclusion criteria. Psychometric properties of the ITQ-CA were assessed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), bivariate correlations and multivariate regression. Results: CFA supported ICD-11 CPTSD symptom structure in children as a two-factor higher-order model with PTSD and Disturbances in Self-Organization (DSO) as correlated factors with very good model fit, while a one-factor higher-order model also fitted the data very well. High factor loadings and excellent levels of internal reliability evidenced the psychometric adequacy of the ITQ-CA. Concurrent and convergent validity were evidenced by high correlations between ITQ-CA scales and criterion variables (PTSD symptoms, depression, anxiety, dissociation, lifetime traumatization). Discriminant validity was partly supported by PTSD and DSO being differently predicted by exogenous criterion variables. Conclusions: CPTSD symptom structure in children is in support of the ICD-11 conceptualization. The reliability and validity of the German ITQ-CA are evidenced for the first time, identifying it as an easy-to-use screening instrument to assess ICD-11 PTSD and CPTSD in children. Further implications and areas for upcoming studies are discussed. • CPTSD symptom structure in children supports the ICD-11 conceptualization.• The German ITQ-CA was validated as a viable screening instrument to assess ICD-11 PTSD and CPTSD in children.• PTSD and DSO were associated with lifetime traumatization, depression, anxiety and dissociation.

description: The silicon based solar cells was fabricated on n-type CZ silicon wafer, employing triple-layer
WO3/Ag/WO3 films as emitter, cesium carbonate (Cs2CO3) as back surface field (BSF), referred to as WAW/n-Si solar
cells. All of those films were deposited by physical vapor deposition (PVD) at room temperature. In this work, series
resistance (Rs) in WAW/n-Si solar cells, mainly comprising all the film’s series and contact resistances, were
quantitatively analyzed and discussed. The results indicated that contact resistivity (c) for n-Si/WO3 contact is strongly
dependent on bottom WO3 layer thickness. 10~20 nm-thick bottom WO3 layer is needed for WAW/n-Si solar cells with
favorable Rs. When optical performance was taken into consideration, WAW/n-Si solar cells of 9.47% best efficiency
was achieved on polished silicon substrate under STC (AM 1.5 global spectrum, 25 °C and 1000 W/cm2). In absence
of the effect of Rs, efficiency of 11.52% can be reached.

description: Image synthesis driven by computer graphics achieved recently a remarkable realism, yet synthetic image data generated this way reveals a significant domain gap with respect to real-world data. This is especially true in autonomous driving scenarios, which represent a critical aspect for overcoming utilizing synthetic data for training neural networks. We propose a method based on domain-invariant scene representation to directly synthesize traffic scene imagery without rendering. Specifically, we rely on synthetic scene graphs as our internal representation and introduce an unsupervised neural network architecture for realistic traffic scene synthesis. We enhance synthetic scene graphs with spatial information about the scene and demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach through scene manipulation.

description: Context. The diffusion of adaptive optics systems in astronomical instrumentation for large ground-based telescopes is rapidly increasing and the pyramid wavefront sensor is replacing the Shack-Hartmann as the standard solution for single conjugate adaptive optics systems. The pyramid wavefront sensor is typically used with a tip-tilt modulation to increase the linearity range of the sensor, but the non-modulated case is interesting because it maximizes the sensor sensitivity. The latter case is generally avoided for the reduced linearity range that prevents robust operation in the presence of atmospheric turbulence. Aims. We aim to solve part of the issues of the non-modulated pyramid wavefront sensor by reducing the model error in the interaction matrix. We linearize the sensor response in the working conditions without extending the sensor linearity range. Methods. We developed a new calibration approach to model the response of pyramid wave front sensor in partial correction, whereby the working conditions in the presence of residual turbulence are considered. Results. We use in simulations to show how the new calibration approach allows for the pyramid wave front sensor without modulation to be used to sense and correct atmospheric turbulence and we discuss when this case is preferable over the modulated case.

description: We develop the event-by-event picture of the gluon distribution produced via medium-induced gluon branching by an energetic jet which propagates through a dense QCD medium. A typical event is characterized by the production of a large number of soft gluons which propagate at large angles with respect to the jet axis and which collectively carry a substantial amount of energy. By explicitly computing 2-gluon correlations, we demonstrate the existence of large event-by-event fluctuations, which reflect the stochastic nature of the branching process. For the two quantities that we have investigated -- the energy loss at large angles and the soft gluon multiplicity --, the dispersion is parametrically as large as the respective expectation value. We identify interesting scaling laws, which suggest that the multiplicity distribution should exhibit KNO (Koba-Nielsen-Olesen) scaling. A similar scaling is known to hold for a jet branching in the vacuum, but the medium-induced distribution is found to be considerably broader. We predict that event-by-event measurements of the di-jet asymmetry in Pb+Pb collisions at the LHC should observe large fluctuations in the number of soft hadrons propagating at large angles and also in the total energy carried by these hadrons.

description: Traumatic sexual experiences can negatively affect sexual functioning and increase pelvic floor activity in women, especially when post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is developed. However, little is known about the effect of other types of interpersonal and non-interpersonal, traumatic experiences on sexual function and pelvic floor overactivity. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of lifetime traumatic experiences and subsequent PTSD symptoms on sexual function and pelvic floor activity and to investigate whether the effects differ for interpersonal and non-interpersonal trauma. Women (N=82) with obesity and a history of infertility, participating in a follow-up study of an RCT investigating a lifestyle intervention programme, completed questionnaires on lifetime exposure to traumatic events (LEC-5), PTSD symptoms (PC-PTSD-5), sexual function (MFSQ) and pelvic floor activity (AOPFS-SV). A large majority of women (85%) reported exposure to at least one traumatic event during their lifetime. Sexual function and pelvic floor activity did not differ between women who experienced non-interpersonal or interpersonal (including sexual) trauma and those who did not experience traumatic events during their lifetime. Women who had developed PTSD symptoms, however, did have higher pelvic floor activity, but sexual function was not affected. Women with a positive screen for PTSD had the highest pelvic floor activity score, and individual PTSD symptoms nightmares and hypervigilance were associated with significantly higher pelvic floor activity scores. Trauma exposure is associated with pelvic floor overactivity in women with a positive screen for PTSD, such that pelvic floor overactivity is more severe with greater PTSD severity. These findings suggest that the development of PTSD after interpersonal trauma is pivotal in this association. Sexual function was unrelated to trauma exposure and pelvic floor function, perhaps related to the fact that the interpersonal trauma events reported in this study were mainly non-sexual.

description: The physical mechanisms driving starbursts in dwarf galaxies are unclear, and the effects of mergers on star formation in these galaxies are still uncertain. We explore how the merger process affects star formation in metal-poor dwarf galaxies by analyzing high-spatial-resolution ($\sim$ 70 pc) integral field spectrograph observations of ionized gas. We use archival data from the Very Large Telescope/Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer to map the spatial distribution of strong emission lines (e.g., $\rm Hβ$, $\rm Hα$, $\rm [OIII]\lambda5007$, $\rm [NII]\lambda6583$, etc) in the nearby merging star-forming dwarf galaxy system NGC 4809/4810. We identify approximately 112 star-forming knots scattered among the two galaxies, where the gas-phase metallicity distribution is inhomogeneous and mixing with metal-poor and metal-rich ionized gas. Star-forming knots at the interacting region show lower metallicity, the highest star formation rates (SFRs) and SFR to resolved main-sequence-relation (rMSR) ratios. Ionized gas exhibits an obvious northeast-southwest velocity gradient in NGC 4809, while seemingly mixed in NGC 4810. High virial parameters and the stellar mass-size relation of HII regions indicate that these regions are dominated by direct radiation pressure from massive stars/clusters and persistently expanding. We find two different stellar mass surface density-stellar age relations in NGC 4809 and NGC 4810, and the stellar ages of NGC 4810 are systematically younger than in NGC 4809. Our study suggests that the merging stage of two dwarf galaxies can induce starburst activities at the interaction areas, despite the metal-deficient environment. Considering the high specific SFRs and different stellar ages, we propose that the interaction initially triggered star formation in NGC 4809 and then drove star formation in NGC 4810.

description: The rear surface of the wafer is etching by wet chemical method. The effect of rear etching on the
properties of wafer and cell is investigated. Through analyzing the changing of the surface morphology, reflectivity
and cell electrical property, surface roughness is decreased by rear etching. The reflectivity and internal quantum
efficiency (IQE) in long wave are increased and the pyramid edges/ridges becomes more smoothly. Rear polishing
can also decrease the surface recombination velocity of electron-hole and increase effective minority carrier lifetime.
The open-circuit voltage and short-current density increase 2 mV and 0.25 mA/cm2 respectively, 0.2% gain in cell
efficiency with the best cell efficiency can achieve to 20.12%.

description: We investigate optical characteristics of flashes caused by impacting meter- to decameter-sized outer solar system objects on Jupiter and contributions of reflected light from surface clouds at visible wavelengths to estimate more accurate bulk parameters such as the luminous energy of the flash, the kinetic energy, the mass, and the size of the impact object. Based on the results of recent reflectivity studies of the Jovian surface, we develop a cloud reflection model that calculates the contribution of the reflected light relative to that directly from the flash. We compare the apparent luminous energy of the previously reported flashes with the expected cloud reflection contributions to obtain their revised bulk parameters. We found that the cloud reflection contributions can be up to 200% of the flux directly from the flash and thus can be the most significant uncertainty in the measurement of the bulk parameters. The reflection contributions strongly depend on wavelength. With our cloud reflection correction, the revised bulk parameters of the previously reported flashes are obtained. Our cloud reflection correction provides a better understanding of the properties of impacting objects on Jupiter and is crucial for ongoing detailed investigations using high-sensitivity and multi-wavelength observation systems such as PONCOTS. It will also be useful for understanding other optical transients in Jupiter's upper atmosphere, such as the recently discovered sprite-like events.

description: Different busbar concepts with three, four, five and six busbars (BB) on standard silicon solar cells on
both full cell format (156 mm x 156 mm) and half-cell format (156 mm x 78 mm) were investigated. 40 prepared
single-cell mini module specimens, five of each per variation, were tested with a flash cell tester to determine series
resistance and maximum power for a relative comparison. Simulations with original measured parameters were
compared to the determined values of the experiment. A dependency was found between the number of busbars and
the finger grid design, all together affecting series resistance and efficiency. An optimized busbar concept with at
least 4-BB technology is recommended as a first step due to performance improvement and economic issues.

description: Additional file 3. The number of drags (n) conducted in each site type (light gray) within each park. The drag habitats found across the parks were A) maintained grass, B) leaf litter, and C) unmaintained herbaceous. At the edge of open spaces, the drag habitat comprised of the habitat where the drag was performed, but the habitat on either side of the dragged habitat was also recorded to characterize edge type. Edge drag habitats could be found in between 1) impervious and forest, 2) maintained grass and forest, or 3) maintained grass and water environments.
