Angle dependence of synthesized BiOI prepared by dip coating and its effect on the photovoltaic performance
摘要: A study about the angle effect on the synthesis of BiOI films via modified successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) and its application as p-type semiconductor in solar cell construction have been carried out. By involving the angle inclination on the BiOI synthesis process in this work, it showed the impact on the BiOI film thickness. We found the thicker films contained larger flaky morphology which was displayed by the FESEM image. Also, it exhibited an increase of the Bi-I internal stretching mode (Eg) in the Raman spectra, BiOI peak absorbance in the visible region, and its crystal intensity in the XRD pattern along with the decreasing angle from 90° to 50° while SILAR process was running. Although our BiOI films performed better Jsc compared to previous studies, their photovoltaic parameters decreased slightly upon the reducing angle, which induced larger BiOI growth in the larger flaky cluster.

Using IoT and smart monitoring devices to optimize the efficiency of large-scale distributed solar farms
摘要: This paper presents a novel IoT-based architecture that utilizes IoT hardware, software, and communication technologies to enable real-time monitoring and management of solar photovoltaic systems at large scales. The system enables stakeholders to remotely control and monitor the photovoltaic systems and evaluate the effect of various environmental factors such as weather, air quality, and soiling. The system was implemented and evaluated in terms of network delay and resource consumption. Message Queueing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) was used to facilitate wide-scale real-time communication. The average network delay was found to be less than 1 s, proving the architecture to be ideal for solar and smart grid monitoring systems. As for resource consumption, the evaluation showed the hardware to consume about 3% of the panel’s output, while the application also utilized a very small percentage of the CPU. This led to the conclusion that the proposed architecture is best deployed using low-cost constrained edge devices where a combination of IoT-based paradigm, efficient MQTT communication, and low resources consumption makes the system cost-effective and scalable.

Ferromagnetic, Ferroelectric and Optical Modulated Multiple Resistance States in Multiferroic Tunnel Junctions
摘要: In data storages, spin, ferroelectric or optical index has been utilized as the information carrier, and the binate couplings among the three parameters are explored to increase the resistance states and resultant data-density. However, studies holding all of the three information indices are still blank, where the risen number of information carriers from previous two to three provides opportunities for inducing novel phenomena and distinct resistance states. In this work, using the spin-electron-photon resolved theory, we demonstrate the feasibility of spin, ferroelectric and optical interactions, which are further detected by a spin- and ferroelectric-modulated photovoltaic effect in La2/3Sr1/3MnO3/BiFeO3/Fe4N multiferroic tunnel junctions (MFTJs). Moreover, on the basis of spin- and ferroelectric-induced four resistance states in MFTJs, the special photovoltaic effect shall split each resistance state into the light-on and light-off switching states, which finally leads to the multiple resistance states. Besides, nearly 100% spin-polarized photocurrent and large tunneling magnetoresistance (electroresistance) are realized in this MFTJs. These results reveal that interacted spin, ferroelectric and optical indices can simultaneously serve as information carriers in storages, which provide guidance for developing efficient data memories.

Structural and Optical Properties of Cs2AgBiBr6 Double Perovskite.
摘要: We present a comprehensive study of the relationship between the crystal structure and optoelectronic properties of the double perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6, which has emerged as a promising candidate for photovoltaic. Based on single-crystal/powder X-ray diffraction and neutron powder diffraction, we have revealed the presence of a structural phase transition at Ts ~122K between the room-temperature cubic structure (space group F mˉ3m) and a new low-temperature tetragonal structure (I4/m). From reflectivity measurements we found that the peak exciton energy Eex ≈ 2.85 eV near the direct gap shifts proportionally to the tetragonal strain, which is consistent with the Eex being primarily controlled by a rotational degree of freedom of the crystal structure, thus by the angle Bi-Br-Ag. We observed the time-resolved photoluminescence kinetics and we found that, among the relaxation channels, a fast one is mainly present in the tetragonal phase, suggesting that its origin may lie in the formation of tetragonal twin domains.

Improving the rectifying performance of the pyrene-benzene system by optimizing its hydrocarbon bridge: A first-principles investigation
摘要: We report a computational study on enhancing the rectification ratio (RR) of the pyrene-benzene junction by modifying the structure of its acyclic aliphatic hydrocarbon bridge. The RR values for a series of pyrene-benzene systems with different types of bridges are determined. Notably, the maximum RR of the pyrene-(CH)3-(CH2)3-(CH)3-benzene system is 93.8, and the same hydrocarbon bridge increases the RR of the organic photovoltaic materials pyrene-DMA (N,N-dimethylaniline) and pyrene-DCNB (p-dicyanobenzene) by 10 times and limits reverse current during photo-induced electron transfer. These findings are particularly important for the design of molecular devices where both a high RR and conductivity are desirable. Moreover, they provide new insight into phenomena that indirectly affects the photo-electric conversion efficiency viz. enhancing the RR of the materials.

A Robust Power Management Strategy with Multi-mode Control Features for an Integrated PV and Energy Storage System to take the Advantage of ToU Electricity Pricing
摘要: In this paper, a power management strategy (PMS) for an integrated residential solar photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage unit (ESU) is proposed for both grid-connected and islanded operations to take advantage of time-of-use pricing. This is an effective solution to integrate storage and renewable energy sources, such as solar PV, with the conventional grid to improve the reliability and efficiency of the power system and to reduce the total electricity cost for the consumer. An automatic switching control strategy is proposed to realize a smooth switching among the various operation modes of the proposed energy management strategy. The integrated PV-storage system is composed of a 5 kW PV arrays, a 3.5kWh ESU formed by 12V single lead acid batteries, and three power converters. The PMS ensures seamless switching of the ESU converter between the charging and the discharging mode and seamless switching between the inverting and the rectifying mode of the grid converter. It also ensures that the local loads are supplied when the grid fails. An experimental setup has been implemented in the laboratory using the real time FPGA GPIC (General Purpose Inverter Control) card from National Instrument to verify the practical feasibility of the proposed PMS under the various scenarios of the PV irradiation, load changings and the state of charge of the energy storage unit. The results show that the proposed PMS is effective and robust against various scenarios.

Spin coated multilayered CuO/ZnO films with high output power under irradiation
摘要: Thin films of pure CuO, pure ZnO and CuO/ZnO multilayers were synthesized using the spin coating technique. CuO and ZnO layers were spin coated for 30 s at speeds of 2000 and 1500 rpm, respectively. All the samples were subsequently annealed at 500 0C for one hour in air. Structural properties of films investigated using XRD patterns indicated the crystallization of single phase of CuO and ZnO. Optical band gaps of samples determined by UV-Visible spectrums were in the range of the band gaps of CuO and ZnO. The main objective of the preparation of multilayered CuO/ZnO was enhancing the output power by combining wide band gap and narrow band gap materials. CuO with higher photocurrent and ZnO with higher photovoltage were employed to achieve this task. Photocurrent, photovoltage and impedance were measured in order to investigate the electrical properties of these samples. A liquid junction photocell with electrolyte potassium iodide (KI) was employed to measure photovoltaic properties. A multilayer with ZnO as the top layer provides a higher output power of 3.6 μW/cm2 compared to the output power of a multilayer with CuO as the top layer (1.1 μW/cm2). This is the highest output power reported for a multilayer of CuO/ZnO without any dye coating in KI electrolyte. The highest output power of our multilayered samples is more than twice the previously reported highest output powers of pure CuO and pure ZnO thin film samples without dye coating. Chemical properties of samples were confirmed by FTIR. Crystallite sizes were in the range from 23 to 28 nm. Impedance curves of the samples were measured under dark and light conditions. Two semicircles could be observed at Nyquist plots of both multilayer samples.

[IEEE 2018 14th International Conference on Power Electronics (CIEP) - Cholula, Puebla, Mexico (2018.10.24-2018.10.26)] 2018 14th International Conference on Power Electronics (CIEP) - DC-AC-AC Converter for PV Plant in Medium Voltage Grid-Connected Systems
摘要: Large-scale PV plants (hundreds of MW) are a reality and are being used to generate high-power levels in medium-voltage (MV) utilities. To achieve this goal, some new power electronics systems based on medium-frequency AC-links (MFAC) and multilevel output configurations have been proposed to interfacing with the MV utility. Most of these systems rectify the MFAC voltage, generating a DC bus and then invert the DC voltage to generate a line frequency AC voltage. This paper presents a three-phase cascaded multilevel converter topology with reduced-energy conversion stage and multiples AC medium-frequency (MF) links. The proposed converter is composed by modules connected in cascaded. Each module has three conversion stages: input converter (DC-AC), isolation stage (medium-frequency transformer) and output converter (AC-AC). In order to validate the proposed topology simulations of a 100 kW system are performed, taking into account balanced and unbalanced DC source cases. The proposed system is validated through a 1.5 kW single-phase five-level laboratory prototype.

[IEEE 2018 7th International Conference on Renewable Energy Research and Applications (ICRERA) - Paris, France (2018.10.14-2018.10.17)] 2018 7th International Conference on Renewable Energy Research and Applications (ICRERA) - Effective Series-Parallel Cell Configuration in Solar Panels for FPM Power Generation Forest
摘要: Three-dimensional (3D) Fibonacci number photovoltaic modules (FPMs), which are designed in part based on natural plant leaf phyllotaxis, have previously been proposed as a means of efficiently collecting solar energy over the course of a day. When multiple FPMs are installed in the same area, they can be arranged like trees in a forest. As part of efforts to realize such power generation forests, this study uses simulations and experiments to clarify the relationship between the cell configurations within a solar cell panel and the power generation that occurs when an adjacent FPM is installed.

Cost, Contractors and Scale: An Empirical Analysis of the California Solar Market
摘要: I present an empirical analysis of the rapidly growing California rooftop solar photovoltaic market using detailed data of over 100,000 solar installations between 2007 and 2014. The rapid fall in the cost of solar panels stand central in the expansion of this market. I use a semi-parametric regression model to aid identification of cost factors by decomposing time-varying and cross-sectional components. I find that the use of Chinese manufactured panels are associated with costs that are 6% lower. Economies of scale at the local level (number of yearly installations in a zip code) and at the installation level (size of the installation) are also associated with lower costs. Higher subsidies, and higher contractor market-share are associated with higher costs. I use an exploratory analysis of the dominant contractor, SolarCity, to discuss non-cost factors in the expansion of the solar photovoltaic market.
