Solution-processed CdTe nanocrystals (NCs) photovoltaic devices have many advantages, both in commercial manufacture and daily operation, due to the low-cost fabrication process, which becomes a competitive candidate for next-generation solar cells. All solution-processed CdTe NCs solar cells were first reported in 2005. In recent years, they have increased over four-fold in power conversion efficiency. The latest devices achieve AM 1.5 G power conversion efficiency up to 12.0%, values comparable to those of commercial thin film CdTe/CdS solar cells fabricated by the close-space sublimation (CSS) method. Here we review the progress and prospects in this field, focusing on new insights into CdTe NCs synthesized, device fabrication, NC solar cell operation, and how these findings give guidance on optimizing solar cell performance.
In order to improve the driver confortness, the 5-DOF analysis mathematical car model with the active seat air-spring suspension system was built. Based on the linear stochastic optimal control theory (LQG), the signal of road’s input as excitation source was used to design the optimal law of this seat active control system. MATLAB simulation programming language was applicated for the response simulation. The results show that the control strategy on the road excitation system has a good applicability on controlling the vibration of the driver’s seat and active seat suspension can more effectively reduce the driver’s vertical vibration acceleration than passive seat suspension.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
