In this letter, we examine the effect of charge trapping on geminate recombination and organic photovoltaic performance using a Monte Carlo model. We alter the degree of charge trapping by considering energetic disorder to be spatially uncorrelated or correlated. On correlating energetic disorder, and so reducing the…

The synthesis and characterization of dimeric, aryl-substituted bis(imino)pyridine iron dinitrogen complexes is described. In contrast to reduction with sodium amalgam where bis(chelate) iron compounds were isolated, stirring ((Ar)PDI)FeBr(2) or ((Me)BPDI)FeBr(2) (PDI = 2,6-(ArN=CMe)(2)C(5)H(3)N; Ar = 2,6-Et(2)-C(6)H(…

Aiming at a better understanding of the interaction of ionic liquid (IL) thin films with oxide supports, we have performed a model study under ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions. We apply infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRAS) in combination with density functional theory (DFT). Thin films of 1-butyl-3-meth…

Highly porous homoleptic Ni(bpb) and Zn(bpb) materials have been obtained by reaction of nickel(II) and zinc(II) salts with the deprotonated form of the 1,4-(4-bispyrazolyl)benzene ligand (H 2 bpb). Ab-initio structure solution methods and thermodiffractometry have allowed the determination of their crystal structures…

Abstract Here, a new methodology for analyzing the charge‐density dependence of carrier mobility in organic semiconductors, applicable to the low‐charge‐density regime (1014–1017 cm−3) corresponding to the operation conditions of many organic optoelectronic devices, is reported. For the P3HT/PCBM blend photovoltaic de…

We address the issue of the self energy of the mobile ions in electrolyte solutions within a general Gaussian renormalized fluctuation theory using a field-theoretic approach. We introduce the Born radii of the ions in the form of a charge distribution allowing for different Born radii between the cations and anions.…

Nanoembossed mesoporous LiFePO 4 microspheres were first synthesized by a template-free hydrothermal process. These microspheres show a quite uniform size distribution of ∼3 μm and are composed of many densely aggregated ∼100 nm nanoparticles and interconnected nanochannels. This mesoporous structure can allow sucrose…

We study proximity-induced superconductivity on the surface of a topological insulator (TI), focusing on unconventional pairing. We find that the excitation spectrum becomes gapless for any spin-triplet pairing, such that both subgap bound states and Andreev reflection is strongly suppressed. For spin-singlet pairing,…

The elevated temperature bolting steel Durehete 1055, manufactured by Corus Speciality Steels over several decades for power plant applications, has seen a number of changes to the original alloy design. Durehete 1055 (1%Cr 1%Mo 0.75%V TiB) is the most metallurgically complex of the trademarked Durehete range. Signifi…

We investigate a tracer particle moving on a two-dimensional square lattice created by network formers (NF). The positions of all network formers are randomly displaced by a small amount from the nodes of the network. Each NF can be in a "floppy" or "rigid" state, depending on the number of bonds connecting it to neig…
