Optoelectronic optimization of graded-bandgap CdTeSe thin-film solar cells by Faiz Ahmad, Akhlesh Lakhtakia, Peter B Monk

“…Recent research on CdTeSe thin-film solar cells has indicated that front-junction grading suppresses nonradiative recombination and improves carrier collection, thereby improving the solar-cell efficiency. However, a comprehensive study encompassing different bandgap-grading profiles—such as linear, nonlinear, and piecewise homogeneous—is required to fully understand their impact on device performance. …”

Optimization of Residual Hexane in Edible Oils Analysis Using Static Headspace Gas Chromatography by Azrul Hisyam Samsuri, May Yen Ang, Shean Yeaw Ng

“…Method validation applies to the technical hexane; 2-methylpentane, 3-methylpentane, cyclohexane, and methylcyclopentane, the signal-to-noise (S/N), as well as the limit of quantification (LoQ) values was found to be 218.20, 221.45, 746.37, 97.37 and 0.85, 0.84, 0.25, 1.93 mg kg−1, respectively. Good linearity, repeatability, and low carryover of this method have provided an alternative way to analyze the content of the residual hexane in edible oils in a more efficient manner. …”
