New fluoranthene-based cyanine dye for dye-sensitized solar cells

In this paper, a new fluoranthene-based unsymmetrical organic cyanine dye I and the corresponding cyanine dye II containing ethynyl unit for the purpose of comparison were designed and synthesized as sensitizers for the application in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The absorption spectra, electrochemical and photovoltaic properties of I and II were extensively investigated. The DSSCs based on the fluoranthene dye I showed the better photovoltaic performance: a maximum monochromatic incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency (IPCE) of 67%, a short-circuit photocurrent density (J_sc) of 7.83 mA cm^?2, an open-circuit photovoltage (V_oc) of 0.476 V, and a fill factor (ff) of 0.63, corresponding to an overall conversion efficiency of 2.34% under simulated AM 1.5G solar light condition. Also, the effects of chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) in a solution as a co-adsorbate on the photovoltaic performance of DSSCs based on cyanine dyes were also investigated. The presence of CDCA for 0.5 h, increases both the photovoltage and photocurrent of the DSSC incorporating I, in which the photovoltage and photocurrent increase 9.3% and 20%, respectively. The above photovoltaic results indicate that coadsorption of appropriate amount CDCA is effective to improve solar cell performance.

工艺因素对319铝合金热分析特征值的影响

运用热分析技术研究了冷却曲线特征值与319铝合金中化学成分之间的关系,并进行回归分析。结果表明,在不考虑工艺因素的情况下,试样的硅含量与α-Al枝晶生长回升温度T_G~(αDEN)之间的相关性最大,相关系数r为-0.65,以硅含量可预测α-Al枝晶生长回升温度。在浇注过程中,冷却速度与α-Al枝晶生长回升温度T_G~(αDEN)密切相关,相关系数为r=-0.72。在相同的冷却条件下,铝合金的浇注温度和浇注量对冷却速度有明显的影响,因此,可以通过调整浇注温度和浇注量,控制铝合金的冷却速度,进而也可预测铝合金中α-Al枝晶生长回升温度T_G~(αDEN)。

A Low-Complexity Precoding Scheme for Downlink Massive MU-MIMO Systems with Low-Resolution DACs

In this paper, we investigate the problem of downlink precoding for the narrowband massive multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) system with low-resolution digital-to-analog converters (DACs). We introduce a low-complexity precoding scheme based on the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) framework in this work. An efficient gradient descent (GD) algorithm with adaptive step-size determination mechanism (ASGD) is proposed to alleviate the computational complexity bottleneck of the inherent matrix inversion. Numerical results demonstrate that the ASGD precoder achieves an attractive trade-off between the performance and computational complexity compared with other counterparts.

     

Reversible data hiding based on hybrid prediction and interleaving histogram modification with single seed pixel recovery

This paper proposes a reversible data hiding scheme for natural images. A hybrid prediction mechanism is utilized in order to produce prediction errors as many as possible. The cover image excluding a seed pixel is partitioned into four non-overlapping segments, and four predictors are tailored for each of them. As a result, most prediction errors concentrate around zero in prediction error histogram. Besides, an interleaving histogram modification mechanism is presented such that the capacity is enhanced and easier to be finely tuned in contrast to some previous approaches. Third, a single seed pixel recovery strategy is introduced. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Analysis of effect of feedback current variation in CT Delta-Sigma modulators with Gm-C integrators

NAO humanoid robots are being used in many human-robot interaction applications. One of the important existing challenges is developing an accurate real-time face recognition system which does not require to have high computational cost. In this research work a real-time face recognition system by using block processing of local binary patterns of the face images captured by NAO humanoid is proposed. Majority voting and best score ensemble approaches have been used in order to boost the recognition results obtained in different colour channels of YUV colour space, which is a default colour space provided by the camera of NAO humanoid. The proposed method has been adopted on NAO humanoid and tested under real-world conditions. The recognition results were boosted in the real-time scenario by employing majority voting on the intra-sequence decisions with window size of 5. The experimental results are showing that the proposed face recognition algorithm overcomes the conventional and state-of-the-art techniques.     

Highly Efficient Three Primary Color Organic Single‐Crystal Light‐Emitting Devices with Balanced Carrier Injection and Transport

Organic single crystals have a great potential in the field of organic optoelectronics because of their advantages of high carrier mobility and high thermal stability. However, the application of the organic single crystals in light‐emitting devices (OLEDs) has been limited by single‐layered structure with unbalanced carrier injection and transport. Here, fabrication of a multilayered‐structure crystal‐based OLED constitutes a major step toward balanced carrier injection and transport by introducing an anodic buffer layer and electron transport layer into the device structure. Three primary color single‐crystal‐based OLEDs based on the multilayered structure and molecular doping exhibit a maximum luminance and current efficiency of 820 cd cm^?2 and 0.9 cd A^?1, respectively, which are the highest performance to date for organic single‐crystal‐based OLEDs. This work paves the way toward high‐performance organic optoelectronic devices based on the organic single crystals.
