It does not require sophisticated equipment to evaluate the full displacement vector field of the specimen under test with great accuracy. In this paper, we would like to put the reader's attention to the DIC technique as a solution that may identify the genuine character of the load applied to the object under test. Our experience with testing wind turbine blades using DIC proves that possibility.

Sol-gel is a versatile method for producing materials by using a solution (sol) that undergoes a gelation process to form a solid network (gel). This process involves hydrolysis and condensation reactions of precursor molecules. Although the sol-gel application is simple and economical, it has some limitations. The aging of sol-gel materials causes a change in the properties and structure of a sol-gel system over time, causing a deterioration in the final properties of the waveguide thin films. Nanoimprint lithography is a cost-effective patterning technique that is only effective when fresh sol is used; otherwise, it leads to the formation of defective waveguide structures.

A 1-dimensional numerical software (SCAPS 1-D) has been applied to simulate the HTL candidates: spiro-OMeTAD, PTAA, nickel oxide (NiO), and copper (I) thiocyanate (CuSCN), with tin (IV) dioxide (SnO2) as the electron transport layer (ETL). The thickness of the methylammonium germanium iodide (CH3NH3GeI3) absorber was varied from 300 nm to 1100 nm, and the highest simulated power conversion efficiency was achieved at a thickness of 800 nm for all HTL candidates. It was observed that the inorganic CuSCN outperformed its counterparts with a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 25.38%. The effect of the perovskite absorber’s defect density was investigated, and ultimately, it was demonstrated that this value is disproportionately related to the PCE. A reduction of nearly 98% in PCE was recorded when the defect density increased from 1x1014 cm-3 to 1x1020 cm-3. Additionally, for a constant ETL thickness of 80 nm, it was revealed that the PCE would decrease slightly, ranging from 0.1% to 0.3%, with an increase in HTL thickness from 50 nm to 300 nm. Comparing the PCE of our current work with published reports further justifies its competitiveness. Full Text: PDF References W.R. Becquerel, \"Becquerel Photovoltaic Effect in Binary Compounds\", J.

Proper light composition may have significant impact on plant properties, important from the consumer's point of view. Based on experimental cultivation of thyme, examination of thyme leaves grown under different spectra was performed. Transmissive spectra, colorimetric properties, dry mass yield as well as biometrical properties (shape of leaves) were determined. Attention to the issues of energy efficacy of light sources was also paid. Full Text: PDF References\u0000\u0000D.L. DiLaura, K.W. Houser, R.G. Mistrick, G.R.
