The effect of single and double-layer anti-reflective coatings on efficiency enhancement of silicon solar cells was investigated. The reflectance of different anti-reflection structures were calculated using the transfer matrix method and then to predict the performance of solar cells coated by these structures, the weighted average reflectance curves were used as an input of a PC1D simulation....

To solve the problems of underwater image color deviation, low contrast, and blurred details, an algorithm based on correction detail enhancement is proposed. First, improved nonlocal means denoising used to denoise image. The combination Gaussian weighted spatial distance Euclidean as index measure similarity structural blocks. can retain more edge features texture information while maintainin...

In this article CuO/water nanofluid was synthesized by using polyvinylpyrolidone (PVP) as the dispersant.  Thenanofluid stability period and the heat transfer enhancement were determinedby measuring the thermal conductivities. To study the nano-fluid stability, zeta (ζ) potential, and absorbency were measured under different pH values and PVP surfactant concentrations; also thermal conductivity...

   In this study, effect of asymmetric functionalized graphene oxide (Janus GO) on Young′s modulus and glass transition temperature of Polysulfone (PSf) ultrafiltration membranes was investigated. The membranes were prepared via phase inversion method and GO nanosheets were dispersed in casting solution by sonication. Results showed that the Normalized Young’s modulus (on the basis of neat ...
