Relating Band Edge DOS Occupancy Statistics Associated Excited State Electrons Entropy Generation to Free Energy Loss and Intrinsic Voc Deficit of Solar Cells

Ever science the invention of solar cells, thermodynamics has been used to assess their performance limits, guiding advances in materials science and photovoltaic technology to reduce the gap between the practical efficiencies and the thermodynamic limits to photovoltaic energy conversion. By systematically addressing the thermodynamic efficiency losses in current photovoltaic, ultrahigh efficiency photovoltaic can be expected. Currently, the non-radiative recombination of some ultrahigh efficient solar cells is almost completely suppressed, and the radiative recombination loss is then the key to restrict the further improvement of device performance. This work relates the energy band edge electronic density of states (DOS) of semiconductor absorber and transport layer, excited/transfer state electronic entropy to thermodynamically inevitable energy loss during photoelectric conversion in solar cells. On accounts of the basic limitations of thermodynamic laws on the energy conversion process, this work reveals a hidden variable that affects the photovoltaic performance and puts forward the band edge DOS engineering as a new dimension in performance optimization of solar cell apart from the traditional material and defect passivation engineering, etc. This work highlights the great importance of DOS engineering for further improving the performance of any solar cell devices

Bioefficacy of beta-carotene in lutein-free lut2 leaves compared with wild-type Arabidopsis leaves fed to gerbils

The relatively constant carotenoid composition of leaves in higher plants suggests Arabidopsis leaves could model interactions of β-carotene and lutein ingested in vegetable leaves. We compared liver vitamin A stores in gerbils fed β-carotene in lutein-free (lut2) mutant or wild-type (WT) Arabidopsis leaves. Gerbils were fed a vitamin A-free diet for 4 weeks. They were then fed one of 4 diets for 6 weeks: 1) vitamin A-free diet (n=8); 2) vitamin A-free diet supplemented with purified β-carotene (22.0 nmol β-carotene/g diet; n=8); 3) vitamin A-free diet supplemented with lut2 leaves (61.3 nmol β-carotene/g diet; n=3); or 4) vitamin A-free diet supplemented with WT leaves (69.1 nmol β-carotene/g diet; n=3). There were no group differences in body or liver weights. Liver vitamin A stores were 48% higher in gerbils fed lut2 leaves (2.94±0.14 [mu]mol) than in those fed WT leaves (1.99±0.10 [mu]mol; P=0.005). Liver vitamin A stores were higher in gerbils fed purified β-carotene (3.80±0.27 [mu]mol) than in those fed WT leaves (P=0.003) or vitamin A-free diet (0.45±0.08 [mu]mol; P\u3c0.001). The difference in liver vitamin A stores in gerbils fed purified β-carotene or lut2 leaves was not statistically significant. Although our finding may not extrapolate to humans, for the first time, we have shown carotenoid-carotenoid interactions when ingested within a plant matrix

Urbanisation dilemmas in delta cities

[EN] Delta Cities in developing countries face problems of water risks while also dealing with enormous population growth. Recent urbanisation is increasingly taking place in high risk areas.When looking into these recent urbanisation processes, we can discern two different dynamics, formal and informal ones. They relate in different ways to green, grey and blue infrastructures, and have their own formal and informal institutional drivers.Modern technocratic planning methods do not positively interfere with informal city growth. On the contrary, often water problems are shifted to the lower and informal parts of the city. Inclusive green planning should take into account local urbanisation practice.Bijlsma, L. (2018).

Drinking water biofiltration: Removal of antibiotics and behaviour of antibiotic resistance genes

This research investigated the effectiveness of biofiltration systems for the attenuation of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) from drinking water. Five antibiotics, including amoxicillin, clarithromycin, oxytetracycline, sulfamethoxazole, and trimethoprim, and the relevant resistance genes (blaCTX-M, blaOXA-1, blaTEM, ermB, tetA, tetG, tetQ, tetW, tetX, sul 1, sul 2, dfrA1 and dfrA12) as well as integrase genes (intI 1 and intI 2) were targeted. In addition, the role the biofilm plays as a gene transfer site was also investigated. Both chemical (LC-MS/MS) and molecular biology (real-time qPCR, high-throughput qPCR and 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing) methodologies were used. A total of three biofiltration experiments using sand, granular activated carbon (GAC) and anthracite as filter media were set-up at bench-scale. Results showed that the target antibiotics were substantially removed (> 90%) by GAC-associated biofilters and partially removed (< 20%) by sand and anthracite-sand dual media biofilters. The position of GAC layer within the sand filter bed showed no effect on antibiotic removal. The absolute abundance of ARGs decreased (1.0-log reduction on average) after biofiltration, while ARGs’ normalised copy number remained unchanged or showed an increasing trend in the filtered water, especially when exposed to the target antibiotics, indicating that the biofilters did not contribute greatly to the elimination of ARG pollution from the feedwater despite the effective removal of antibiotics. Exposure to the target antibiotics affected the bacterial community in biofilm samples and the differences in bacterial community structure were correlated with the changes in the resistome. Plasmid conjugative transfer experiment based on biofiltration showed that the GAC media is more conducive to the horizontal transfer of ARGs in biofilms and the transfer occurred more frequently in biofilms than in the influents and effluents. Overall, the results of this study could enhance our understanding of the prevalence of ARGs during drinking water treatment

Separate and Unequal Risks for Victimization? An Examination of the Relationship Between City-Level Conditions and Risks for Non-Fatal Victimization

This investigation is an exploratory study of the relationship between city-level conditions and risks for non-fatal victimization. Specifically, city characteristics including residential segregation and economic equality between whites and minorities, the proportion of female-headed households, person unemployed and impoverished and the proportion of residents below age eighteen and their relation to non-fatal victimization is studied. Furthermore, individual and neighborhood correlates of non-fatal victimization are examined in addition to city conditions. Also of importance to the current study is examining these risks across racial and ethnic groups and across cities. The primary data is derived from the National Crime Victimization Survey 12 Cities study and is supplemented with city-level data from the United States Census Bureau, the Lewis Mumford Center and the American Communities Project at Brown University. The bivariate analyses, which entailed the use of Pearson¿s tests of correlation, examined the relationship between city conditions and property victimization and non-fatal violent victimization. The findings reveal that city context is related to rates of non-fatal violent and property victimization among the sampled twelve cities. Furthermore, substantial differences in risks for victimization emerge when the data are disaggregated by race. The relationship between city conditions and non-fatal victimization are further explored using logistic regression models that also included controls for individual and neighborhood characteristics. Individual and neighborhood conditions have long been associated with risks for non-fatal forms of victimization; therefore, it is important to consider these factors in addition to city conditions. The findings indicate that city context is indeed associated with non-fatal victimization among cities even when individual and neighborhood factors are considered. However, there appear to be no substantive differences in the relationship between individual and neighborhood factors and non-fatal victimization across cities. Individual and neighborhood risks for non-fatal victimization are similar regardless of the city being studied despite the differences in city size, racial/ethnic composition or level of disadvantage. However, there are substantive differences in risks for non-fatal victimization across racial/ethnic groups
