Organic Photovoltaic Cells with Improved Performance Using Bathophenanthroline as a Buffer Layer

The role of bathophenanthroline （Bphen） as a buffer layer inserted between fullerene （C60） and Ag cathode in organic photovoltaic （OPV） cell was discussed. By introducing Bphen as a buffer layer with thicknes from 0 to 2.5 nm, the power conversion efficiency of the OPV cell based on copper phthalocyanine （CuPc） and C60 was increased from 0.87% to 2.25% under AM 1.5 solar illumination at an intensity of 100 mW/cm^2, which was higher than that of bathocuproine used as a buffer layer. The photocurrent-voltage characteristics showed that Bphen effectively improves electron transport through C60 layer into Ag electrode and leads to balance charge carrier transport capability. The influence of Bphen thickness on OPV cells was also investigated. Furthermore, the absorption spectrum shows that an additional Bphen layer enhances the light harvest capability of CuPc/C60.

Effect of the amount of zinc-doped on the electrochemical performance of nickel hydroxide

The nickel hydroxide prepared by micro-emulsion method was doped by coprecipitated Zn. The effect of the amount of zinc-doped on the properties of Ni(OH)2 such as the reversibility of the electrode reaction, the charge efficiency and active material utilization ratio of nickel electrode, and discharge specific capacity was studied by cyclic voltammetry and constant current charge-discharge tests. The results indicate that the specific discharge capacity of nickel hydroxide obtained by micro-emulsion method is much less than its theoretical value because the transfer of electrons and the diffusion of protons H+ are hindered owing to its crystal grain size in a nanometer range and thus possessing higher crystal interface resistance. The crystal cells are swelled and the crystal defects increased in prepared material due to part of Ni2+ substituted by Zn2+ when zinc and nickel hydroxide are coprecipitated. Hence, the electrons and protons H+ in the electrode reaction are transferred easily, the electrochemical behavior of nickel electrode is improved and discharge specific capacity is promoted. However, the performance of Ni(OH)2 is gradually enhanced with the addition of zinc-doped at first, while slowly decreased after the content of zinc is added to a certain value. The best electrode reaction reversibility, the highest electrode charge efficiency, the highest active material utilization ratio and the largest specific capacity on discharge are available when the mass fraction of Zn doped in nickel hydroxide by coprecipitation reaches 2.5 %.

Energy-Transfer Processes of Xe（6p[1/2]0,6p[3/2]2,and 6p[5/2]2） Atoms under the Condition of Ultrahigh Pumped Power

The kinetic processes of Xe(6p[1/2]0, 6p[3/2]2, and 6p[5/2]2) atoms under the focused condition were investigated. The atomic density of the laser prepared state significantly increases. Therefore, the probability of the energy-pooling between two high-lying atoms increases. There are three major types of the energy-pooling collisions. The first type is the energy-pooling ionization. Once the excitation laser is focused, the obvious ionization can be observed from the side window whenever the laser prepared state is 6p[1/2]0, 6p[3/2]2, or 6p[5/2]2 state. Ionization of Xe is attributed to the energy-pooling ionization or a Xe* atom reabsorbing another excitation photon. The second type is energy-pooling with big energy difference. When the 6p[1/2]0 state is the laser prepared state, the energy-pooling collision between two 6p[1/2]0 atoms can produce one 5d[3/2]1 atom and one 6s'[1/2]0 atom. The third type is energy-pooling with small energy difference. The intensities of fluorescence lines are much stronger that five secondary 6p states act as the upper states, and the rising edges of these fluorescence lines are much steeper. The primary mechanism of generating the secondary 6p atoms is energy-pooling collision instead of collision relaxation. Based on the collision probability, the rate of energy-pooling between two 6p[1/2]0 atoms is deduced (6.39x10^8s-1). In addition, the 6s atoms also increase under the focused condition. Therefore, all the fluorescence lines are serious trailing by radiation trapping.

Mechanism for capacity fading of 18650 cylindrical lithium ion batteries

The mechanism for capacity fading of18650lithium ion full cells under room-temperature(RT)is discussedsystematically.The capacity loss of18650cells is about12.91%after500cycles.The cells after cycles are analyzed by XRD,SEM,EIS and CV.Impedance measurement shows an overall increase in the cell resistance upon cycling.Moreover,it also presents anincreased charge-transfer resistance(Rct)for the cell cycled at RT.CV test shows that the reversibility of lithium ioninsertion/extraction reaction is reduced.The capacity fading for the cells cycled can be explained by taking into account the repeatedfilm formation over the surface of anode and the side reactions.The products of side reactions deposited on separator are able toreduce the porosity of separator.As a result,the migration resistance of lithium ion between the cathode and anode would beincreased,leading the fading of capacity and potential.

The influence of transforming pH values on the electrochemical performance of nano-scale Ni （OH）2 was analyzed. The measurement results of XRD indicate that the nano-scale Ni （OH） 2 prepared at different transformations of pH value is β （ Ⅱ ）-phase with different crystal lattice parameters. Cyclic voltammograms （CV） and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy（EIS） measurement results show that transformations of pH value affect the proton diffusion coefficient （D） and charge-transfer resistance （Re,） of the material. The simulation of.cell experiment shows that the sample prepared at a pH of 10. 1 exhibits the maximum specific capacity （327.8 mAh/g） and higher discharge platform, the discharge performance of electrodes depends on both D and Rct, so the kinetics characteristics that electrodes reaction is controlled by both mass-transfer step and charge- transfer step are put forward.

An improved joint method for onset picking of acoustic emission signals with noise

The onset times of acoustic signals with spikes,heavy bodies and unclear takeoffs are difficult to be picked accurately by the automatic method at present.To deal with this problem,an improved joint method based on the discrete wavelet transform(DWT),modified energy ratio(MER)and Akaike information criterion(AIC)pickers,has been proposed in this study.First,the DWT is used to decompose the signal into various components.Then,the joint application of MER and AIC pickers is carried out to pick the initial onset times of all selected components,where the minimum AIC position ahead of MER onset time is regarded as the initial onset time.Last,the average for initial onset times of all selected components is calculated as the final onset time of this signal.This improved joint method is tested and validated by the acoustic signals with different signal to noise ratios(SNRs)and waveforms.The results show that the improved joint method is not affected by the variations of SNR,and the onset times picked by this method are always accurate in different SNRs.Moreover,the onset times of all acoustic signals with spikes,heavy bodies and unclear takeoffs can be accurately picked by the improved joint method.Compared to some other methods including MER,AIC,DWT-MER and DWT-AIC,the improved joint method has better SNR stabilities and waveform adaptabilities.

The LiMn2O4/grapbite battery was fabricated and its 3 C/10 V overcharge performance was studied. Spinel LiMn2O4 was synthesized by solid-state method and 325680-type size full battery was fabricated. The structure and morphology of the powders were characterized by XRD and SEM technique, respectively. The battery explodes after 3 C/10 V overcharged test, and surface temperature of the battery case arrives at 290 ℃ in 12 s after exploding. Black air is given out with blast.
