Identification of intermetallic compounds in electrodeposited copper-cadmium alloys by electrochemical techniques
(Elsevier, 1989)
Anodic sweep voltammetry was used to identify different intermetallic compounds and assess their amount in copper-cadmium alloys. Four compounds are found in thin (1–8 μm) electroplated alloy films: CuCd3, Cu5Cd8, Cu4Cd3 ...
Nanophotonic design of perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)
The perovskite material system allows for the realization of perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells with high energy conversion efficiencies at low cost. To realize such solar cells, the device geometry, the device processing, ...
Influence of film formation on light-trapping properties of randomly textured silicon thin-film solar cells
(The Japan Society of Applied Physics, 2014)
The influence of film formation on light-trapping properties of silicon thin-film solar cells prepared on randomly textured substrates was studied. Realistic interface morphologies were calculated with a three-dimensional ...
Strain Wars: Competitive interactions between SARS-CoV-2 strains are explained by Gibbs energy of antigen-receptor binding
(Elsevier, 2022)
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, SARS-CoV-2 has mutated several times into new strains, with an increased infectivity. Infectivity of SARS-CoV-2 strains depends on binding affinity of the virus to its host ...
Phase equilibrium data for the hydrogen sulphide + methane system at temperatures from 186 to 313 K and pressures up to about 14 MPa
(Elsevier, 2014)
Isothermal vapour–liquid equilibrium data have been measured for the methane–hydrogen sulphide (CH4 + H2S) binary system at five temperatures from 186.25 to 313.08 K, and pressures between 0.043 and 13.182 MPa. The ...
Thermodynamics of hydrolysis of cellulose to glucose from 0 to 100 °C: Cellulosic biofuel applications and climate change implications
(Elsevier, 2018)
Hydrolysis of cellulose to glucose is a key reaction in renewable energy from biomass and in mineralization of soil organic matter to CO2. Conditional thermodynamic parameters, ΔhydG’, ΔhydH’, and ΔhydS’, and equilibrium ...
Molecular interpretation of low-temperature heat capacity of aliphatic oligo-urethane
(Elsevier, 2017)
The low-temperature heat capacity of semi-crystalline aliphatic oligo-urethane obtained from the reaction between butane-1,4-diol and hexamethylene 1,6-diisocyanate was measured using a Quantum Design PPMS (Physical Property ...
Elemental composition, heat capacity from 2 to 300 K and derived thermodynamic functions of 5 microorganism species
(Elsevier, 2021)
Detailed elemental analysis and low-temperature calorimetric measurement results are reported for the first time for Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria and mold fungi. Microorganism unit carbon formulas (empirical ...
Laws of evolution parallel the laws of thermodynamics
(Elsevier, 2018)
We hypothesize that concepts from thermodynamics and statistical mechanics can be used to define summary statistics, similar to thermodynamic entropy, to summarize the convergence of processes driven by random inputs subject ...
Quantitative evaluation of sulfur-polymer matrix composite quality
(Elsevier, 2013)
In order to predict service life of the sulfur–polymer composite, the samples were subjected to the induced destruction using 10% hydrochloric acid solution. Control specimens were prepared using Portland cement binder. ...
