description: Solar cells fabricated with boron doped P-type Cz wafers suffer from performance degradation when
exposed to light illumination. This effect, generally called LID (Light induced degradation), is due to the metastable
defect formed by boron and oxygen in silicon substrate under illumination. An approach to substitute boron with gallium
in p-type Cz silicon could eradicate this LID effect. However, the segregalliumtion coefficient of gallium in silicon is
very low (0.008), which results in a high resistivity variation of the gallium doped Cz monocrystal ingot compared with
that in the case of boron doped. In this paper, we did some numerical simulation to predict the axial resistivity
distribution of gallium doped Cz monocrystal silicon, also we pulled gallium doped monocrystal silicon ingots to validate
the prediction. The result demonstrates that the main part’s resistivity of gallium doped Cz monocrystal silicon could be
controlled in the range of solar cells’ need. We fabricated solar cells with Gallium doped wafers of various resistivities
 and investigate their properties. We found that the gallium doped P-type solar cells manufactured through present
commercial cell process have favorable electrical properties and excellent stability with very low LID.

description: We include a general form for the scattering mean free path in a nonlinear Monte Carlo model of relativistic shock formation and Fermi acceleration. Particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations, as well as analytic work, suggest that relativistic shocks tend to produce short-scale, self-generated magnetic turbulence that leads to a scattering mean free path (mfp) with a stronger momentum dependence than the mfp ~ p dependence for Bohm diffusion. In unmagnetized shocks, this turbulence is strong enough to dominate the background magnetic field so the shock can be treated as parallel regardless of the initial magnetic field orientation, making application to gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), pulsar winds, Type Ibc supernovae, and extra-galactic radio sources more straightforward and realistic. In addition to changing the scale of the shock precursor, we show that, when nonlinear effects from efficient Fermi acceleration are taken into account, the momentum dependence of the mfp has an important influence on the efficiency of cosmic-ray production as well as the accelerated particle spectral shape. These effects are absent in nonrelativistic shocks and do not appear in relativistic shock models unless nonlinear effects are self-consistently described. We show, for limited examples, how the changes in Fermi acceleration translate to changes in the intensity and spectral shape of gamma-ray emission from proton-proton interactions and pion-decay radiation.

description: The contamination of solar collectors by airborne dust is known as a very important problem for solar
energy generation. Dust deposition on the surfaces of photovoltaic panels leads to degradation of their optical
properties with corresponding losses of efficiency and resulting negative economic. Because of the general scarcity
of water in desert and semi-desert zones, which are the best for solar power production, this commodity should not
be wasted for cleaning purpose. A new prototype device, which can remove dust from the surface of a PV-module by
means of electric fields, has been developed and tested in the field. Efficiency of dust removal better than 90 % was
demonstrated. The new method allows a significant yield increase of a PV-system especially for arid or semi-arid
regions.

description: This paper reports on a measurement of the double-polarization observable G in $π^0$ photoproduction off the proton using the CBELSA/TAPS experiment at the ELSA accelerator in Bonn. The observable G is determined from reactions of linearly-polarized photons with longitudinally-polarized protons. The polarized photons are produced by bremsstrahlung off a properly oriented diamond radiator. A frozen spin butanol target provides the polarized protons. The data cover the photon energy range from 617 to 1325 MeV and a wide angular range. The experimental results for G are compared to predictions by the Bonn-Gatchina (BnGa), Jülich-Bonn (JüBo), MAID and SAID partial wave analyses. Implications of the new data for the pion photoproduction multipoles are discussed.

description: Annual available solar resource is dependent on global horizontal irradiation (GHI) and PV systems. Relevant
tracking and non-tracking PV systems are presented based on Hay-Davis-Klucher-Reindl (HDKR) approach. Results
of the analysis are shown for all PV systems and all regions in the world. Solar resources are weighted by global
population distribution, regarded per country, continent and region and compared to area weighted, maximum and
minimum irradiation per geographic entity. Global electricity weighted irradiation for fixed optimally tilted PV
systems is about 1,690 kWh/m²/y, significantly less than global population and area weighted irradiation of about
1,850 and 1,780 kWh/m²/y, respectively.

description: While today's aircraft are much quieter than those of yesteryear, the exhaust from modern jet engines still produces intense sound. The next generation of supersonic airliners require engines whose exhaust stream is also supersonic. This thesis involves the study of a particular form of noise unique to these supersonic exhaust streams containing shock waves. The key contribution to the research field is the application of a novel theoretical framework (the "wavepacket model") to study the generation and radiation characteristics of broadband shock-associated noise. The model is based on pairing mathematical descriptions of waves with structures observed in jet flows.

description: This work investigates silicon dioxide (SiO2) layers grown at low temperature in concentrated nitric acid
(HNO3) solutions. This procedure has the potential to be significantly less expensive than the thermal oxides used in
high-efficient solar cells and test structures, but it must also provide good surface passivation. The SiO2 layers are
formed by two methods. The first method involves growing a thin (5 nm) SiO2 layer by a two-step nitric acid oxidation
process developed by Imai et al. for thin film transistors. The second being a direct current anodization (DCA) process
using a 5 wt% HNO3 solution, which results in an SiO2 thickness of 40 nm. Prior to an anneal, both oxidation processes
do not passivate the silicon surface, however after an 1100 °C N2 anneal for 30 mins, SRV of 107 cm/s and 70 cm/s can
be achieved respectively. The SRV can be further decreased to 40 cm/s after a 30 min forming gas anneal (FGA) at 400
°C. However, the DCA oxides only require a 900 °C N2 anneal for 30 mins to achieve an SRV of 80 cm/s. Thus, while
both processes provide high quality SiO2 after a high temperature anneal, the DCA process shows more potential due to
the ability to grow thicker SiO2 layers with more control, which passivate at lower annealing temperatures.

description: The production of heavy quarks in pp collisions at the LHC energies provides a reliable test of perturbative QCD calculations. Comparisons of pp and $\pPb$ measurements of their hadronization products allow us to investigate how cold nuclear matter effects affect the heavy-quark production. We present ALICE measurements of azimuthal correlations of prompt D mesons with charged hadrons in pp collisions at $\s$ = 7 TeV and $\pPb$ collisions at $\sNN$ = 5.02 TeV. We also show the per-event D-meson yields as a function of the charged-particle multiplicity in pp collisions at $\s$ = 7 TeV.

description: This thesis is an examination of the circulation networks and the patterns of collection of Italian printed books in France in the sixteenth century. Although the cultural relations between the Italian and French territory have been studied, a systematic survey to assess the impact of books on the shaping of the French Renaissance has never been attempted.
The first section of this study examines the trade routes and networks which facilitated the circulation of Italian printed books across the French territory. Because of the nature of the French early modern book trade, focused primarily on two major centres (Paris and Lyon), a geographical division has been adopted in investigating this phenomenon. Chapter one explores the trade networks existing in sixteenth-century Lyon, from the powerful Compagnie des Libraires to the activity of the libraires italianisants in the second half of the century. Chapter two examines the importance of Italian editions in Paris. Chapter three is devoted to the circulation of Italian books in the provinces and the impact of large regional centres and trade routes on the availability of books locally. Chapter four investigates private networks and their importance in making specific texts available to French readers.
The second section of this study investigates the status and importance of Italian printed books within French Renaissance libraries. Chapter five looks into the development of the French Royal library and the role played by Italian items in defining its identity as an institution. Chapter six examines the presence of Italian books in French aristocratic and courtly collections. Chapter seven is devoted to the libraries of the French literary milieu, analysing the extent to which Italian books were cherished as literary exemplars, particularly with regard to vernacular texts. Chapter eight examines the presence of Italian books in professional collections, with particular attention here given to texts in Latin and other scholarly languages imported from Italy. The conclusion draws all of these strands together, looking at the specific role played by Italian culture, through the printed book, on the development of the French Renaissance.
A catalogue of about 2,400 Italian printed books with early modern French provenance is included as an appendix volume. This data provides the evidential basis for this study.

description: Fullerenes are used in organic solar cells (OSC) due to excellent exciton dissociation and electron transport
characteristics. Modelling of exciton generation and diffusion in bilayer OSCs consisting of ZnPc and C60 enables
calculation of spectral distribution of short-circuit current density (JSC). Relative contribution of active materials to
JSC shows that 39% of JSC originates from photogenerated excitons in C60 material. The importance of C60 as
photoactive material compared to ZnPc with its much higher absorption coefficient is due to its bigger exciton
diffusion length of 50 nm and therefore higher charge carrier generation efficiency.

description: Cyber-Physical System (CPS) is the seamless integration of physical systems with a computational core across a network. CPS design principles can be applied to build systems for many domains, such as manufacturing, medical, and transportation. Existing CPS design frameworks are domain-specific and unable to integrate multi-domain systems, limiting application functionality, and scalability. Hence, this research study proposed and developed a generic, four-layered, functional architecture based CPS design framework. The two CPS prototypes developed - for Intelligent Transportation and Manufacturing domains- verify and validate the features and requirements.

description: A linear anode layer ion source was newly installed in a vertical in-line system. Argon and oxygen
ions are generated to treat the HCl textured ZnO:Al films which are used as the transparent front contact in silicon
thin film solar cells. The ion bombardment can modify the topography of the rough films which further give the
chance to improve the current of the solar cells. The surfaces of the ZnO:Al films are eroded by the ions, and the etch
rate is almost linearly proportional to the discharge power of the ion source. The resistivity of the treated films is not
changed obviously by the argon ions. The textured ZnO:Al films are smoothened by the ion beam treatment, and the
haze is slightly decreased. So far, microcrystalline silicon solar cells on the ion beam treated ZnO:Al films have
lower efficiency and higher open-circuit voltage as compared to the untreated films. This might be caused by the fact
that the silicon p-layer on treated ZnO:Al films have lower crystalline fraction.

layer for crystalline silicon solar cells. In this work, passivation effect were investigated by SiNx:H single and double
layers on n-type multicrystalline silicon wafer as surface passivation layers for n-type bifacial or back-contact solar
cells. SiNx:H layers were deposited by remote PECVD technique. The passivation quality of SiNx:H double layers
was superior over SiNx:H single layer deposited on n-type silicon wafers without n+ layer. The fixed charge density in
SiNx:H double layers was lower than that of SiNx:H single layer. After post-deposition annealing, the effective
lifetime was improved at the wafer cut from center of the ingot. Furthermore, after annealing the fixed charge density
was increased in both single and double layers, while interface state density decreased.

description: A proper calibration of micromorph (a-Si/μc-Si) solar cells and modules, where current matching of
bottom and top cell is a crucial factor, is complicated by the fact that the measured efficiency strongly depends on the
spectral distribution of the incoming light. In the present work we compare the indoor and outdoor performance of a
set of micromorph mini modules (10x10 cm2). In order to realize a proper calibration at standard test conditions
(STC), the IV measurements require to be corrected to AM1.5 for the mismatch of the simulator’s spectral
distribution. This was done by realizing spectral response (SR) measurements of the multi-junction devices. We
notice that the device under test changes its current-limiting behavior (from top to bottom limited), when measured
under different spectral distributions of the light. Moreover, by comparing outdoor to indoor performance data we
observe a very good agreement between the outdoor and the indoor measurement performed with one of our solar
simulators. In addition, measurement related sweep-time effects were investigated. The results show that sweep times
equal or higher than 1 ms show very good coincidence with the slow-speed measurements (1 s). This indicates that
flashers or steady state solar simulators can be used with good accuracy to test these devices. These results will form
the basis for the performance measurement of large-area multi-junction devices at ESTI.

description: It has been shown that the band gap of CuInSe2 can be modified continuously by substituting Ga for In with the optimum at 0.3 at% Ga. The CuInSe2-based alloy films are usually obtained by either multi-source thermal evaporation and co-deposition or reactive annealing of precursor films. These processes are very involved, contain a number of deposition and annealing steps. We propose a process to produce stoichiometric CuIn0.7Ga0.3Se2 (CIGS) alloy by mechanical alloying which can be used as material for magnetron sputtering.
Elemental powders of Cu (>99.9% pure) and Se (>99.9% pure) and fine chips/granules of Ga and In were weighed out to correspond to the composition Cu0.95In0.7Ga0.3Se2. This blended elemental mixture and pure copper balls were loaded into a copper container inside an argon-filled glove box. The ball to powder weight ratio (BPR) was maintained either at 10:1 or 20:1. Milling was conducted in a Fritsch Pulverisette planetary ball mill P5 at a rotation speed of 300 rpm. for different times. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to follow the alloying behavior. A homogeneous nanocrystalline quaternary CuIn0.7Ga0.3Se2 alloy was synthesized by mechanical alloying for a short time of about 20 min. The tetragonal form was obtained at high BPR values (20:1) and the cubic form was obtained at low BPR values (10:1). It is suggested that, similar to the situation in the ternary Cu-In-Se system, the cubic quaternary phase is a high-pressure polymorph of the tetragonal phase stable at room temperature and at atmospheric pressure. Depending upon the milling conditions, either a metastable cubic or a stable tetragonal phase can be produced.

description: In this paper the economically optimized inverter sizing is determined for PV inverters which have to
provide reactive power. A PV module model and a PV inverter model were developed in Matlab®, based on real
one-year solar irradiation profiles provided by Meteonorm® and recorded at Fraunhofer IWES test sites. The single
cost categories of a PV inverter are introduced and discussed with respect to an economically optimized sizing
considering reactive power supply. The investigated reactive power supply methods follow the suggestions in the
German technical guideline for the connection of generators to the medium voltage network and the recent draft of
the technical guideline for the connection to the low voltage network. The results show that the sizing of a PV
inverter has to be adapted to the respective reactive power supply methods in order to keep it economically
optimized.

description: Im Februar 1866 wurde der Verein zur Förderung der Erwerbstätigkeit des weiblichen Geschlechts unter dem Vorsitz des Juristen und Sozialpolitikers Wilhelm Adolf Lette (1799-1868) und unter dem Protektorat der preußischen Kronprinzessin Victoria (1840-1901) in Berlin gegründet. Die Pläne des Vereins umfassten zwei Wege zur Verbesserung der weiblichen Bildungschancen: Zum einen setzte man auf eine „lebenspraktische und berufliche Bildung“. Weiterhin setzte der Verein auf eine wissenschaftliche Wissensvermittlung. Im Oktober 1890 wurde die Photographische Lehranstalt eröffnet, die, in Preußen für Frauen, als „das erste Institut der betreffenden Art mit rein praktischem Zwecke“ galt. Eine Untersuchung dieser Ausbildungssituation und der Vernetzung von Frauen um 1900, die mit fotografischer Technik ihren Lebensunterhalt verdienten, bietet die Möglichkeit, fotografische Berufsfelder wieder sichtbar zu machen, die durch die Photographische Lehranstalt des Lette-Vereins geprägt wurden und in denen fast ausschließlich Frauen tätig waren.

description: High concentration tailings suspensions possess the benefits of reduced water and land use for tailings disposal, reduced tailing mobility and improved deposit stability compared to conventional tailings. The interaction between non-Newtonian carrier and coarse particles in high concentration suspensions is still poorly understood, particularly in a turbulent flow regime. This thesis presents a suspension model and investigates the effect of carrier fluid rheology, solids properties and pipe size on the flow regime, pressure drop, velocity and concentration distribution in weakly turbulent non-Newtonian suspension flows, in order to provide an extended understanding of high concentration suspensions.

description: Plasma energization through magnetic reconnection in the magnetically-dominated regime featured by low plasma beta ($β= 8 πnkT_0/B^2 \ll 1$) and/or high magnetization ($σ= B^2/(4 πnmc^2) \gg 1$) is important in a series of astrophysical systems such as solar flares, pulsar wind nebula, and relativistic jets from black holes, etc. In this paper, we review the recent progress on kinetic simulations of this process and further discuss plasma dynamics and particle acceleration in a low-$β$ reconnection layer that consists of electron-positron pairs. We also examine the effect of different initial thermal temperatures on the resulting particle energy spectra. While earlier papers have concluded that the spectral index is smaller for higher $σ$, our simulations show that the spectral index approaches $p=1$ for sufficiently low plasma $β$, even if $σ\sim 1$. Since this predicted spectral index in the idealized limit is harder than most observations, it is important to consider effects that can lead to a softer spectrum such as open boundary simulations. We also remark that the effects of 3D reconnection physics and turbulence on reconnection need to be addressed in the future.

description: Ammonia has sparked great interest as a carbon-free energy carrier for the transportation of renewable energy worldwide. The major objective of this dissertation is to design and synthesise fluorinated ionic liquid-based electrolytes that are capable of dissolving large amounts of nitrogen gas, for the electrochemical conversion of nitrogen into ammonia. Through the construction of a highly-precise pressure apparatus to measure the solubility of nitrogen gas, new underlying principles to raise the amount of dissolved nitrogen were established by tailoring the individual components, and the physical properties of the fluorinated electrolyte.
Benefits of group living and helping behaviour in the cooperatively breeding purple-crowned fairy-wren, Malurus coronatus

description: Cooperative breeding is an evolutionary puzzle as individuals forego independent reproduction and instead assist others. I investigate how and why helpers contribute to multiple cooperative tasks in the purple-crowned fairy-wren, Malurus coronatus. I show that social group composition, in particular the presence of relatives and potential mates, affects benefits of group living, and consequently, helping behaviour. Moreover, cooperation in offspring provisioning and predator defence is driven by benefits of group living and of helping raise offspring. Thus, it is important to take group composition and multiple forms of helping into account, to gain a comprehensive understanding of complex social systems.
Systematic Literature Review of Therapeutic Use of Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) and Short-Term ASMR Auditory Training Trial

description: Abstract: This thesis consists of 2-parts: a systematic review of current publications on therapeutic use of autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR), and a within-subjects auditory training trial using ASMR videos. The main intent is to explore ASMR as potentially therapeutically beneficial for those with atypical sensory processing. Many hearing related disorders and mood or anxiety symptoms overlap with symptoms of sensory processing issues. For this reason, inclusion and exclusion criteria of the systematic review were generated in an effort to produce optimal search outcomes, and avoid overly confined criteria that would limit yielded results. Criteria for inclusion in the review for Part 1 are: (1) adult participants diagnosed with hearing loss or atypical sensory processing, (2) inclusion of measures related to ASMR as a treatment method and (3) published between 2000 and 2022. A total of 1,088 publications were found in preliminary search, and a total of 13 articles met inclusion criteria. A total of 14 participants completed the trial and post-trial questionnaire. Of all responses, 64.29% agreed that the duration of auditory training sessions was reasonable. In addition, 71.43% agreed that the training improved their perception of music. Lastly, 64.29% agreed that the training improved their perception of a primary talker when there are other talkers or background noises present.

description: In this work amorphous silicon films and p-i-n devices have been prepared at deposition temperatures
compatibles with the use of low-cost plastic substrates. An important deterioration in the optoelectronic properties of
films has been found as the deposition temperature decreases. This problem can be overcome by diluting feedstock
gases with hydrogen. In spite of this solution seemed to improve the properties of single layers, the analysis of p-i-n
cells shows important non-linearities with voltage and irradiance level in the case of the devices deposited at low
temperatures. These non-linear behaviours can be related to different loss mechanisms that have to be identified in
order to make this technology more competitive.

description: We introduce a new class of isolated three-dimensional skyrmion that can occur within the cone phase of chiral magnetic materials. These novel solitonic states consist of an axisymmetric core separated from the host phase by an asymmetric shell. These skyrmions attract one another. We derive regular solutions for isolated skyrmions arising in the cone phase of cubic helimagnets and investigate their bound states.

description: The localization of the valence electron of $H$, $Li$ and $Na$ atoms enclosed by three different fullerene molecules is studied. The structure of the fullerene molecules is used to calculate the equilibrium position of the endohedrally atom as the minimum of the classical $(N+1)$-body Lennard-Jones potential. Once the position of the guest atom is determined, the fullerene cavity is modeled by a short range attractive shell according to molecule symmetry, and the enclosed atom is modeled by an effective one-electron potential. In order to examine whether the endohedral compound is formed by a neutral atom inside a neutral fullerene molecule $X@C_{N}$ or if the valence electron of the encapsulated atom localizes in the fullerene giving rise to a state with the form $X^{+}@C_{N}^{-}$, we analyze the electronic density, the projections onto free atomic states, and the weights of partial angular waves.

description: Hybrid absorber layers had been deposited using spin coating technique using surfactant free TiO2
nanoparticles dispersed in P3HT poly (3hexylthiophene). 1HNMR spectra have confirmed the chemical attachment
between TiO2 nanoparticles and P3HT. Photoluminescence (PL) measurement confirms the PL quenching for the
hybrid layer which is a measure of the degree of dispersion of nanoparticles in the P3HT matrix and also confirms
that the required dissociation of excitons is taking place. Charge transfer is further confirmed with the help of cyclic
voltammetry

description: Surface passivation of silicon by anodic oxidation is investigated in a solution of potassium nitrate in
Ethylene Glycol (EG). The quality of the surface passivation is investigated as a function of water content in the
solution. To achieve passivating properties of the anodic oxides annealing is required. Annealing at 510oC for 50
minutes was used as a standard, which has been found to be the best compromise between minority carrier lifetime
and processing time. The growth mechanism goes through two regimes and changes after a total charge of 0.01C/cm2
has passed through the system. The conductivity of the solution decreases as the amount of water increases. Hence at
higher water contents the anodization swiched from a constant current density to constant voltage, as the maximum
voltage of the potentiostat was reached.

description: Ground- and excited-state UV photoelectron spectra of thiouracils (2-thiouracil, 4-thiouracil and 2,4-dithiouracil) have been simulated using multireference configuration interaction calculations and Dyson norms as measure for the photoionization intensity. Except for a constant shift, the calculated spectrum of 2-thiouracil agrees very well with experiment, while no experimental spectra are available for the two other compounds. For all three molecules, the photoelectron spectra show distinct bands due to ionization of the sulphur and oxygen lone pairs and the pyrimidine $π$ system. The excited-state photoelectron spectra of 2-thiouracil show bands at much lower energies than in the ground state spectrum, allowing to monitor the excited-state population in time-resolved UV photoelectron spectroscopy (TRPES) experiments. However, the results also reveal that single-photon ionization probe schemes alone will not allow monitoring all photodynamic processes existing in 2-thiouracil. Especially, due to overlapping bands of singlet and triplet states the clear observation of intersystem crossing will be hampered.

description: This thesis contributes to the understanding of the structural and thermal evolution of a mountain belt in a tectonic plate margin. Our study case is the Ordovician Famatinian orogen, in NW Argentina. We found that the orogen reacted to both tectonic and gravitational forces by stretching laterally under constriction rather than growing vertically as its foundations were thermally weakened. Geochronology and thermometry from different minerals indicate that the core of this orogen was partially molten for ~100 million years, cooling slowly at a rate of ~1 ᵒC/Ma. These partially molten rocks undermined the stability of the edifice and ultimately caused its failure.

description: Recently, there has been increasing interest in OPV (Organic Photovoltaic) as a next generation solar
cell, with the rapid growth of solar business field. DNP (Dai Nippon Printing Co.,Ltd.) has been developing the OPV
for practical use. [1][2] When P3HT/PCBM is employed, the voltage generated by photoelectrons of a single cell is
approximately 0.6V. When OPVs are applied for the power source of certain applications, OPVs require to be
serially connected in order to increase the operating voltage to a practical level. The voltage depends on the number
of cells; on the other hand, the current depends on the cell area. When a larger electric current is required, the size of
the single is to be large. The ITO electrode is employed for anode, then the conversion efficiency decreases by
increasing the cell width. This means that the design freedom of the OPV modules with ITO anode is limited
remarkably. So, we started to evaluate the metal grid structure to increase the cell width to increase the quantity of
the electric current. The metal grid structure is suitable for the highly integrated structure of OPV modules.
