1. Silicon surface passivation via ultra-thin SiO2, TiO2, and Al2O3 layers
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : Energy traps at the silicon surface originating from discontinuities in the lattice is detrimental to the performance of solar cells. Acting as recombination centers, they offer a location where the charge carriers may easily return to their original energy band after excitation. READ MORE

3. The impacts of series compensated EHV lines on distance protection, and a proposed new mitigation solution
University essay from KTH/Elektroteknisk teori och konstruktionAbstract : Series compensation is extensively applied to the transmission lines to increase the power transfer capability of transmission lines, reduce transmission losses, improve voltage profiles, and improve power oscillation damping and transient stability of power systems. But it modifies the apparent impedance of the transmission lines during fault conditions and might cause the distance protection of transmission lines to encounter directional discrimination issues and reach problems.

4. Hardware Implementation of Number Inversion Function
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknikAbstract : Nowadays, number inversion is of great significance and a complex arithmetical operator, especially the implementation in hardware. It provides a higher speed performance and lower power consumption. Initially, the conversion of the inputs to floating-point numbers contains sign, exponent, and mantissa parts. READ MORE

5. Ultra-low power circuits for power management
University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)Abstract : Recent developments in energy harvesting techniques allowed implementation of completely autonomous biosensor nodes. However, an energy harvesting device generally demands a customized power management unit (PMU) in order to provide the adequate voltage supply for the biosensor. One of the key blocks within this PMU is a regulation DC-DC converter. READ MORE
