In this paper, we present a new technic based on t transient diffusion capacitance of the bifacial solar cell back surface recombination velocity (Sb) and the grain boundary recombination velocity (Sgb), we resolved the continuity equation in the base of the solar cell under monochro diffusion capacitance profile which decreases with the dynamic junction velocity (Sf), the back surface recombin...

Recently, a previous contributor showed how the delta-wye conversion may be applied to find the equivalent capacitance of five capacitors arranged in a bridge configuration. In fact, that contributor gave an algorithm for this purpose which showed that the equivalent capacitance depends upon all five capacitors. However, in this paper, we point out that there is a special case where the equival...

Vascular integrity is important in maintaining homeostasis of brain microenvironments. In various brain diseases including Alzheimer's disease, stroke, and multiple sclerosis, increased paracellular permeability due to breakdown of blood-brain barrier is linked with initiation and progression of pathological conditions. We developed a capacitance sensor array to monitor dielectric responses of ...

The temperature dependence of capacitance–voltage (C–V) and the conductance–voltage (G/w–V) characteristics of (Ni/Au)/Al0.3Ga0.7N/AlN/GaN heterostructures were investigated by considering the effect of series resistance (Rs) and interface states Nss in a wide temperature range (79–395 K). Our experimental results show that both Rs and Nss were found to be strongly functional with temperature a...

High-resolution electronic interface circuits for transducers with nonlinear capacitive impedance need an operational amplifier, which is stable for a wide range of load capacitance. Such operational amplifier in a conventional design requires a large area for compensation capacitors, increasing costs and limiting applications. In order to address this problem, we present a gain-boosted two-sta...

Although previous studies have proposed a variety of models to characterize diastolic pressure-flow relations, the models' ability to predict capacitance-free pressure-flow relations from dynamic information in individual studies has not been determined. This study tested the ability of a lumped RC model with pressure-dependent parameters to predict diastolic capacitance-free flow during maximu...

We have used capacitance measurements with a 1-microsecond voltage clamp technique to probe electrogenic ion-transporter interactions in giant excised membrane patches. The hydrophobic ion dipicrylamine was used to test model predictions for a simple charge-moving reaction. The voltage and frequency dependencies of the apparent dipicrylamine-induced capacitance, monitored by 1-mV sinusoidal per...

In this paper, parameters related to the sensitivity of the interface circuits for capacitive sensors are determined. Both the input referred noise and capacitance of the input transistors are important for capacitive sensitivity. Chopping is an effective technique for signal conditioning circuits because of its capability of reducing circuit noise at low frequencies. The capacitive sensitivity...

We report on a very fast and low noise front-end, implemented in 0.25μm CMOS technology. The CARIOCA amplifier discriminator chip has input impedance of 10Ω, in order to be compatible with sensors of large capacitance, and a peaking time of 14ns. The conversion gain of 8mV/fC remains almost unchanged up to a detector capacitance of 120pF. A noise figure of 450e at zero input capacitance with a ...

We suggest that the dynamics of stable viscous invasion fronts in porous media depends on the volume capacitance of the media. At high volume capacitance, our network simulations provide numerical evidence of a scaling relation between the front width and its velocity. In the low volume capacitance regime, we derive a new effective scaling supported by network simulations and that is in agreeme...
