Green energy extraction for sustainable development: A novel MPPT technique for hybrid PV-TEG system
PublicationThe Photovoltaic (PV) module converts only a small portion of irradiance into electrical energy. Most of the solar energy is wasted as heat, resulting in a rise in PV cell temperature and a decrease in solar cell efficiency. One way to harvest this freely available solar thermal energy and improve PV cell efficiency is by integrating PV systems with thermoelectric generators (TEG). This cogeneration approach of the hybrid PV-TEG...

Interaction of 4-nitrothiophenol with low energy electrons: Implications for plasmon mediated reactions
PublicationThe reduction of 4-nitrothiophenol (NTP) to 4-4′-dimercaptoazobenzene (DMAB) on laser illuminated noble metal nanoparticles is one of the most widely studied plasmon mediated reactions. The reaction is most likely triggered by a transfer of low energy electrons from the nanoparticle to the adsorbed molecules. Besides the formation of DMAB, dissociative side reactions of NTP have also been observed. Here, we present a crossed electron-molecular...

Effect of shallow traps on admittance spectra of the system carrying SCLC and on values of charge carrier mobility extracted from susceptance
PublicationThe work concerns small-signal spectra of space-charge-limited current below threshold frequency (ft) of shallow traps. It is shown that below ft the small-signal concentration of trapped charge carriers is proportional to and in phase with small-signal concentration of free charge carriers, so there is no room for “slow shallow traps”. Conductance can be reduced by the traps, however no change in the range of real capacitance...
