Risk-Balanced Routing Strategy for Service Function Chains of Cyber-Physical Power System Considering Cross-Space Cascading Failure

Cyber-physical power system(CPPS)has significantly improved the operational efficiency of power systems.However,cross-space cascading failures may occur due to the coupling characteristics,which poses a great threat to the safety and reliability of CPPS,and there is an acute need to reduce the probability of these failures.Towards this end,this paper first proposes a cascading failure index to identify and quantify the importance of different information in the same class of communication services.On this basis,a joint improved risk-balanced service function chain routing strategy(SFC-RS)is proposed,which is modeled as a robust optimization problem and solved by column-and-constraint generation(C-CG)algorithm.Compared with the traditional shortest-path routing algorithm,the superiority of SFC-RS is verified in the IEEE 30-bus system.The results demonstrate that SFC-RS effectively mitigates the risk associated with information transmission in the network,enhances information transmission accessibility,and effectively limits communication disruption from becoming the cause of cross-space cascading failures.

Ultrathin microcrystalline hydrogenated Si/Ge alloyed tandem solar cells towards full solar spectrum conversion

Thin film solar cells have been proved the next generation photovoltaic devices due to their low cost,less material consumption and easy mass production.Among them,micro-crystalline Si and Ge based thin film solar cells have advantages of high efficiency and ultrathin absorber layers.Yet individual junction devices are limited in photoelectric conversion efficiency because of the restricted solar spectrum range for its specific absorber.In this work,w e designed a nd simulated a multi-junction solar cell with its four sub-cells selectively absorbing the full solar spectrum including the ultraviolet,green,red as well as near infrared range,respectively.B y tuning the G e content,the record efficiency of 24.80%has been realized with the typical quadruple junction structure of a-Si:H/a-Si0.9Ge0.1:H/μc-Si:H/μc-Si0.5Ge0.5:H.To further reduce the material cost,thickness dependent device performances have been conducted.It can be found that the design of total thickness of 4μm is the optimal device design in balancing the thickness a nd the PCE.While the design of ultrathin quadruple junction device with total thickness of 2μm is the optimized device design regarding cost and long-term stability with a little bit more reduction in PCE.These results indicated that our solar cells combine the advantages of low cost and high stability.Our work may provide a general guidance rule of utilizing the full solar spectrum for developing high efficiency and ultrathin multi-junction solar cells.
