Numerical analysis of the optoelectronic properties of selected Sn-based perovskites solar cells using SCAPS simulation by Olumide Olakunle Moyofola, Moses Eterigho Emetere

“…However, the main disadvantages are its poor power conversion efficiency and stability issues. To overcome its intrinsic shortcomings, it is critical to investigate scientific possibilities for optimizing its internal mechanism.This study is a theoretical simulation of five selected Sn-based perovskites (MASnBr3, FASnI3, CsSnI3, MASnI3, and CsSnCl3) in a multiple ETLs architecture (specifically, p-n-n architecture) with the use of the SCAP 1D simulator to optimise some material properties towards improved PV parameters. …”

Evaluation of demulsifiers efficiency for coal tar dehydration according to the value of its viscosity reduction by L. P. Bannikov, D. V. Miroshnichenko, O. L. Borisenko, A. L. Bannikov

“…Decreasing the viscosity of the tar promotes the coalescence of water drops and the diffusion rate of the demulsifier through the dispersion medium to the water-tar interface, which increases the efficiency of dewatering. The selectivity of tar dehydration by the studied demulsifiers is preserved for both low- and high-pyrolyzed coal tars. …”
