A cheap and commercially available small molecule (namely EPPDI) is introduced to the active layer of N2200-based all polymer solar cells as a solid additive. EPPDI at the optimal ratio can improve the D-A nano-scale morphology and reduce trap density of the active layer by filling morphological spaces. As a result, the photovoltaic performance of the resulting devices based on PF2:N2200 are increased from 6.28% to 7.03% with significantly enhanced fill factor. This work demonstrates a facile approach for improving the performance of all polymer solar cells. 相似文献
To fully utilize the resources of heterogeneous cellular networks (HCNs), an effective approach that offloads users to the underloaded small cells from overloaded macrocells is widely advocated. However, this operation often leads to a bad result that the offloaded users achieve lower signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio (SINR) than these users in macrocells. Thus, some appropriate interference avoidance techniques should be adopted to partially alleviate the SINR degradation. For this, we consider the resource (frequency) partitioning that turns off some fraction of such resources in a macrocell. Naturally, an optimal offloading strategy should be closely coupled with resource partitioning, and in turn the optimal partition decides the offloading performance. In this paper, we propose a distributed association strategy with joint offloading and resource partitioning for HCNs. We reveal that load balancing, by itself, is insufficient, and additional resource partitioning is required to improve system performance. Meanwhile, we also show that, compared with the best power association and range extension association, the proposed scheme provides better association performance.
Calibration is considered to be the most effective way to improve the accuracy of parallel kinematic machine tools (PKMTs). However, ordinary calibrations only considered the time-invariant errors (manufacturing error), neglecting some time-variant errors, a significant one of which is thermal error. Therefore, in this paper, the influence of thermal error was considered in the calibration of a 3-P(Pa)S parallel-type spindle head. First, a new kinematic model of the spindle head was proposed, which is closer to the real physical model, so the thermal error of the spindle head can be considered in the model. Second, the structural parameters of the spindle head were expressed as the sum of the ideal parameters, the manufacturing errors, and the thermal errors. Third, the pose (position and orientation) of the end effector and the temperature of the spindle head were measured. The positions of the temperature sensors were selected using the global temperature sensitivity index (GTSI), which is derived from the global sensitivity index (GSI). Thus, by setting a standard temperature, the thermal error of the structural parameter can be obtained. Fourth, the influence of the thermal error was inputted into the identification equation for calibration, so the results are the structural parameters at the standard temperature (20 °C). To solve the ill-conditioning problem, a Regularization method was used in the identification. Finally, the calibration was verified on a 3-P(Pa)S-XY machine tool. The RTCP test, performed immediately after the measurement, shows that the maximum position error after the calibration is 0.019 mm at the tilt angle of 30° and 0.037 mm at 20°. In addition, the RTCP test after a temperature change shows that the calibration considering the thermal error can improve the average position accuracy from 0.025 mm to 0.015 mm. The calibration method in this paper is expected to be applicable for other machine tools. 相似文献
In this paper, a novel Ag NPs-PANI/MnO2 tag was synthesized for the first time, and the electrochemical immunoassay for carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was achieved. In this experiment, gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) were used as an electrochemical sensing platform to increase conductivity and improve electrode surface capture antibody (Ab1). We use PANI as a green sacrificial agent reduces Ag NPs and MnO2, while improving the conductivity and electrochemical stability of the immunosensor. MnO2 and Ag NPs effectively raise the sensitivity of the sensor by catalytically reducing hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into water and oxygen to achieve a double amplified sensing signal. It is found that the surface plasmon resonance of Ag NPs has an interesting SERS characteristic structure, and the equivalent circuit simulation of the electrode assembly process results in an error of less than 10%, indicating that the electrochemical immunosensor is successfully prepared. Under optimal conditions, the electrochemical immunosensor has a linear range of 0.0005–80 ng/mL and a detection limit of 0.17 pg/mL (S/N = 3). The immunosensor is expected to be used in clinical laboratories to detect CEA and other tumor markers in human plasma for precancerous screening or surveillance. 相似文献
Bipolar resistive switching (RS) phenomenon without required electroforming has been observed in epitaxial (111)-oriented BaTiO3 (BTO) thin films deposited by PLD technique on conducting Nb-doped substrate of SrTiO3 (NSTO). Negative differential resistance (NDR) is observed at about −5 V when the maximum of positive voltage exceeds 7 V and the compliance current is more than 1.5 mA. And bipolar resistive switching has also been observed. In addition, the resistance of LRS decreases with increasing compliance current or the maximum of positive voltage while that of HRS barely changes, and the resistance of HRS increases with increasing the absolute of maximum of negative voltage while that of LRS scarcely changes. A typical rectifying behavior is observed when the maximum of positive voltage is less than 4 V (such as 2 V). In this case, the reverse biased current is strongly enhanced under illumination of white-light, and vice versa. The resistance of LRS and HRS can be controlled by the applied voltage or the compliance current. The rectifying behavior can be controlled by the white-light. The transition from rectifying behavior to bipolar resistive switching can be controlled by the applied voltage. The above results were discussed by considering the oxygen vacancies that can trap or release electrons as a trapping layer at the Pt/BTO interface. 相似文献
The charge generation mechanism of organic heterojunction (OHJ) consisted of 1,4,5,8,9,11-hexaazatriphenylene-hexacarbonitrile (HAT-CN) and different hole transporting materials (HTMs) are studied systematically by current-voltage (I–V) and capacitance-voltage measurements. The analysis of I–V characteristics of the devices based on OHJs at forward and reverse voltages by comparing the thickness of HTM layers finds that a forward and reverse symmetrical I–V curve is observed at thin HTM layers and the forward current becomes larger than the reverse current with the increase of HTM thickness, fully illustrating the effectiveness of OHJ charge generation. Moreover, the I–V characteristics at different temperatures indicate that the efficient charge generation is originated from electron tunneling rather than diffusion. And the C–V and capacitance-frequency (C–F)characteristics further illustrate the highly efficient charge generation ability of OHJs so that the charge density is as high as 4.5 × 1017 cm−3, guaranteeing the high conductivity of OHJs, which is very beneficial to developing highly efficient OLEDs using OHJs as charge injector and generator. 相似文献
We propose a waveguide-based near-eye display featuring a dual-channel exit pupil expander, which is composed of an in-coupler, relay gratings, and an out-coupler. Unlike the conventional waveguide-based near-eye displays, whose field of views are usually non-split or partially split, our dual-channel exit pupil expander is able to evenly split the field of view into two halves. The greatest benefit of doing so is that the upper limit of field of view could be significantly increased. The design rules for all components, including the microdisplay, collimating lens, waveguide and gratings, have been studied. The refractive index and dimension of waveguide are identified as two factors that limit the field of view. In what follows, its key specifications are recapitulated. Field of view is 70° (diagonal), eye relief is 15 mm, exit pupil is 20 × 9 mm2, modulation transfer function is above 0.591 at 30 cycle/degree, contrast ratio is 13, and distortion is 1.38%. 相似文献
To improve the performance of the standard particle swarm optimization (PSO) which suffers from premature convergence and slow convergence speed, many PSO variants introduce lots of stochastic or aimless strategies to overcome the convergence problem. However, the mutual learning between elites particles is omitted, although which might be benefit to the convergence speed and, prevent the premature convergence. In this paper, we introduce DSLPSO, which integrates three novel strategies, specifically, tabu detecting, shrinking and local learning strategies, into PSO to overcome the aforementioned shortcomings. In DSLPSO, search space of each dimension is divided into many equal subregions. Then the tabu detecting strategy, which has good ergodicity for search space, helps the global historical best particle to detect a more suitable subregion, and thus help it jump out of a local optimum. The shrinking strategy enables DSLPSO to take optimization in a smaller search space and obtain a higher convergence speed. In the local learning strategy, a differential between two elites particles is used to increase solution accuracy. The experimental results show that DSLPSO has a superior performance in comparison with several other participant PSOs on most of the tested functions, as well as offering faster convergence speed, higher solution accuracy and stronger reliability. 相似文献
