Photovoltaics literature survey (No. 160)

Best Practice No 160 Renal biopsy specimens

Taking a kidney biopsy is not a trivial procedure. The sample is almost invariably smaller than the pathologist would like. Investigation usually requires division into even smaller samples to permit the application of specialist techniques. In some cases the biopsy is taken not for diagnosis, but to assess the extent of tissue damage. The clinical need is sometimes extremely urgent. These feat...

Photovoltaics characterization: A survey of diagnostic measurements

The advancement of the photovoltaic technology is closely linked to the standard evaluation of the product, the diagnosis of problems, the validation of materials and cell properties, and the engineering and documentation of the ensemble of device properties from internal interfaces through power outputs. The focus of this paper is on some of the more common, visible, and important techniques d...

SURVEY OF NEARBY FGK STARS AT 160 μm WITH SPITZER

The Spitzer Space Telescope has advanced debris disk science tremendously with a wealth of information on debris disks around nearby A, F, G, K and M stars at 24 and 70 μm with the MIPS photometer and at 8-34 μm with IRS. Here we present 160 μm observations of a small sub-set of these stars. At this wavelength, the stellar photospheric emission is negligible and any detected emission correspond...

Customer Lifetime Value Models: A literature Survey

Abstract Customer Lifetime Value (CLV) is known as an important concept in marketing and management of organizations to increase the captured profitability. Total value that a customer produces during his/her lifetime is named customer lifetime value. The generated value can be calculated through different methods. Each method considers different parameters. Due to the industry, firm, business...
