ZnO FOR PHOTOVOLTAICS
Journal Title: Proceedings of Electrotechnical Institute Prace Instytutu Elektrotechniki - Year 2014, Vol 61, Issue 264
Abstract
Despite of a large reductions of costs energy produced by solar panels is still too expensive. There are two approaches to change this situation: by (a) increase of device output and/or (b) reduction of device costs by use of cheaper alternative materials. In this article we discuss the latter approach – (a) replacement of ITO by ZnO with metallic conductivity, (b) change of device architecture, and (c) use of alternative materials.<br/><br/>

THE USE OF GUTKOV'S CORRECTION ELEMENT IN A CONTROL SYSTEM
The Gutkov's corrector is described by the transfer function: Kkor(s) = K0 + K1exp(-stn) +…+ Kn(-stn). The choice of its parameters is aimed at shortening of transient states in the corrected system (plant). The primary...
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ON LIGHT PARAMETERS OF LOW PRESSURE DISCHARGE LAMP RADIATION EMITTED BY THE MERCURY DISCHARGE LAMP T5
Currently, the most commonly used light sources are fluorescent lamps T5 type. Light parameters of the lamp depend on the work environment. Most of the research conducted by manufacturers are not published or presented d...
