Journal ArticleDOI

Enhanced photovoltage for inverted planar heterojunction perovskite solar cells

TL;DR: This approach produces a wider bandgap top layer and a more n-type perovskite film, which mitigates nonradiative recombination, leading to an increase in Voc by up to 100 millivolts, which led to a stabilized power output approaching 21% at the maximum power point.
Book

An Introduction to Surface Analysis by XPS and AES

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a comparison of XPS and AES with other analytical techniques. But they do not discuss the application of the XPS in the field of materials science.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface modification of poly(vinylidene fluoride) by alkaline treatment1. The degradation mechanism

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed study of the alkaline degradation of PVdF has been carried out by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, secondary ion mass spectrometry and Raman spectrographs to determine the composition of the modified layer.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of the interphase in the environmental failure of adhesive joints

TL;DR: In this paper, the cyclic fatigue behavior of an aerospace-grade epoxy-adhesive bonding aluminium-alloy substrates was investigated and the relationship between the rate of fatigue crack growth per cycle, da/dN, and the maximum strain-energy release rate, Gmax, applied during the fatigue cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

XPS investigation of monatomic and cluster argon ion sputtering of tantalum pentoxide

TL;DR: In this article, the ability of argon cluster ions (Arn+) to etch metal oxides and other technologically important inorganic compounds has been reported, but no depth profiles have previously been reported.
