In recent years, plasmonics has been widely employed to improve light trapping in solar cells.Silver nanospheres have been used in several research works to improve the capability of solar absorption.In this paper, we use silver pyramid-shaped nanoparticles, a noble plasmonic nanoparticle, inside thin-film silicon and InP solar cells to increase li

Leveraging nationally representative survey KITCHEN data on 443,680 respondents from January to March 2021, this study examines the temporal, spatial, and sociodemographic variations in COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in the U.S.Findings reveal multidimensional determinants of vaccination intentions involving confidence, complacency, and circumspection

A 3-layer microfluidic device is developed using an inexpensive and readily accessible printer with commercially available printing material, polylactic acid.In addition, to serve as a semi-permeable membrane in microfluidic chip, chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol (CS/PVA) membrane was prepared using an electrospinning process.Electrospun membrane was pre

Thomas Pogge has been challenging liberal thinking on global politics, often through critical engagement with John Rawls’ work.Pogge presents both normative and empirical arguments against Rawls: normatively, Rawls’ domestic Theory of Justice (TJ) and global Enema Bags and Kits Law of Peoples (LP) are incompatible ideal theories; empi
