The physical properties are carefully tuned to optimize their photovoltaic performance.

It was found that films with well distributed polymer/fullerene interpenetrating network exhibit improved solar cell conversion efficiency. Enhanced efficiency up to 5.8% has been demonstrated.

文摘An impedance matched parametric amplifier(IMPA)with Josephson junctions is fabricated and characterized.A hybrid structure containing coplanar and strip structures is implemented to realize an impedance taper line and a plate capacitor in an LC nonlinear resonator based on Josephson junctions.The upper plate of the capacitor is isolated with SiNx without grounding as well as the strips.Such easily-prepared designs greatly reduce the requirements for lithography alignment and precision,which makes the fabrication process more reliable.The experimental results show that in such IMPA a gain higher than 25 dB with a bandwidth of about 100 MHz can be obtained.This broadband amplifier operates close to the quantum limit.By adjusting the working point,a higher bandwidth of about 400 MHz can be obtained with a gain of about 17 dB.
