On-demand tuning of charge accumulation and carrier mobility in quantum dot solids for electron transport and energy storage devices
摘要: Assemblies of colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) are attractive for a broad range of applications because of the ability to exploit the quantum con?nement effect and the large surface-to-volume ratio due to their small dimensions. Each application requires different types of assemblies based on which properties are intended to be utilized. Greater control of assembly formation and optimization of the related carrier transport characteristics are vital to advance the utilization of these materials. Here, we demonstrate on-demand control of the assembly morphology and electrical properties of highly crosslinked CQD solids through the augmentation of various assembly methods. Employment of electric-double-layer (EDL) gating on these assembly structures (i.e., an amorphous assembly, a hierarchical porous assembly, and a compact superlattice assembly) reveals their intrinsic carrier transport and accumulation characteristics. Demonstrations of high electron mobility with a high current modulation ratio reaching 105 in compact QD ?lms and of a record-high areal capacitance of 400 μF/cm2 in an electric-double-layer supercapacitor with very thin (<100 nm) QD hierarchical porous assemblies signify the versatility of CQDs as building blocks for various modern electronic devices.

Energy scheduling of a smart microgrid with shared photovoltaic panels and storage: The case of the Ballen marina in Sams??
摘要: This paper focuses on the Model Predictive Control (MPC) based energy scheduling of a smart microgrid equipped with non-controllable (i.e., with fixed power profile) and controllable (i.e., with flexible and programmable operation) electrical appliances, as well as photovoltaic (PV) panels, and a battery energy storage system (BESS). The proposed control strategy aims at a simultaneous optimal planning of the controllable loads, the shared resources (i.e., the storage system charge/discharge and renewable energy usage), and the energy exchange with the grid. The control scheme relies on an iterative finite horizon on-line optimization, implementing a mixed integer linear programming energy scheduling algorithm to maximize the self-supply with solar energy and/or minimize the daily cost of energy bought from the grid under time-varying energy pricing. At each time step, the resulting optimization problem is solved providing the optimal operations of controllable loads, the optimal amount of energy to be bought/sold from/to the grid, and the optimal charging/discharging profile for the BESS. The proposed energy scheduling approach is applied to the demand side management control of the marina of Ballen, Sams? (Denmark), where a smart microgrid is currently being implemented as a demonstrator in the Horizon2020 European research project SMILE. Simulations considering the marina electric consumption (340 boat sockets, a service building equipped with a sauna and a wastewater pumping station, and the harbour master’s office equipped with a heat pump), PV production (60kWp), and the BESS (237 kWh capacity) based on a public real dataset are carried out on a one year time series with a 1 h resolution. Simulations indicate that the proposed approach allows 90% exploitation of the production of the PV plant. Furthermore, results are compared to a na?ve control approach. The MPC based energy scheduling improves the self-supply by 1.6% compared to the na?ve control. Optimization of the business economy using the MPC approach, instead, yields to 8.2% savings in the yearly energy cost with respect to the na?ve approach.

Optimal planning of distributed photovoltaic generation for the traction power supply system of high-speed railway
摘要: The ever-increasing electricity price and energy consumption in high-speed railway industry push railway companies to seek a promising way to realize their sustainable developments. Making full use of the solar resource along with high-speed railways can be a potential solution to cut the electricity bill, bring more profit to railway companies and realize the decarbonization of high-speed railway industry. This paper studies the optimal planning of distributed photovoltaic generation (DPVG) and energy storage system (ESS) for the traction power supply system (TPSS) of high-speed railway. A quantitative method is proposed to study the time and space characteristics of photovoltaic generation and electricity demand of high-speed trains. An integrated cost-benefit analysis framework is developed to evaluate the effect of DPVG and ESS on the economy of TPSS. To derive the optimal planning scheme and energy management strategy of DPVG and ESS, a mathematical programming model with the objective of minimizing the total cost is proposed to seek the most economical solution. A hybrid global optimal solution approach is developed to solve the model. A real-world case of Beijing-Baoding high-speed railway in China is used to illustrate the capability and characteristics of the proposed model. The computational results show that DPVG is able to supply 48.5% electricity demand of high-speed trains. The integration of DPVG and ESS can help railway company save 4.5 billion CNY each year in Beijing-Baoding high-speed railway. This paper demonstrates the potential and applicability of DPVG and ESS in high-speed railway industry.

Effect of Na2S soaking on the properties of Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 films and solar cells
摘要: In this paper, we propose a Na2S soaking process (used as post-treatment process for the precursor films) for the non-vacuum prepared Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe) films. The CZTSSe film prepared without this process show triple-layer structure in which fine-grain layer and obvious layer-boundaries exist. By soaking the precursor film in Na2S aqueous solution with suitable concentration, the fine-grain layer in the triple-layer structure is substituted by a small-grain layer and the layer-boundaries become continuous. We find the quantum efficiencies of the solar cells in long wavelength region are improved by the Na2S soaking. Therefore, the short-circuit currents of the solar cells are significantly increased. By using the Na2S soaking process, CZTSSe solar cells with the best efficiency of 11.5% have been prepared.

Dynamic life cycle economic and environmental assessment of residential solar photovoltaic systems
摘要: With the increasing implementation of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, comprehensive methods and tools are required to dynamically assess their economic and environmental costs and benefits under varied spatial and temporal contexts. This study integrated system dynamics modeling with life cycle assessment and life cycle cost assessment to evaluate the cumulative energy demand, carbon footprint, water footprint, and life cycle cost of residential grid-connected (GC) and standalone (SA) solar PV systems. The system dynamics model was specifically used for simulating the hourly solar energy generation, use, and storage during the use phase of the solar PVs. The modeling framework was then applied to a residential prototype house in Boston, MA to investigate various PV panel and battery sizing scenarios. When the SA design is under consideration, the maximum life cycle economic saving can be achieved with 20 panels with no battery in the prototype house, which increases the life cycle economic savings by 511.6% as compared to a baseline system sized based upon the engineering rule-of-thumb (40 panels and 40 batteries), yet decreases the demand met by 55.7%. However, the optimized environmental performance was achieved with significantly larger panel (up to 300 units) and battery (up to 320 units) sizes. These optimized configurations increase the life cycle environmental savings of the baseline system by up to 64.6%, but significantly decrease the life cycle economic saving by up to 6868.4%. There is a clear environmental and economic tradeoff when sizing the SA systems. When the GC system design is under consideration, both the economic and environmental benefits are the highest when no battery is installed, and the benefits increase with the increase of panel size. However, when policy constraints such as limitations/caps of grid sell are in place, tradeoffs would present as whether or not to install batteries for excess energy storage.

Optimal storage of a single photon by a single intra-cavity atom
摘要: We theoretically analyze the efficiency of a quantum memory for single photons. The photons propagate along a transmission line and impinge on one of the mirrors of a high-finesse cavity. The quantum memory is constituted by a single atom within the optical resonator. Photon storage is realized by the controlled transfer of the photonic excitation into a metastable state of the atom and occurs via a Raman transition with a suitably tailored laser pulse, which drives the atom. Our study is supported by numerical simulations, in which we include the modes of the transmission line and we use the experimental parameters of existing experimental setups. It reproduces the results derived using input–output theory in the corresponding regimes and can be extended to compute dynamics where the input–output formalism cannot be straightforwardly applied. Our analysis determines the maximal storage efficiency, namely, the maximal probability to store the photon in a stable atomic excitation, in the presence of spontaneous decay and cavity parasitic losses. It further delivers the form of the laser pulse that achieves the maximal efficiency by partially compensating parasitic losses. We numerically assess the conditions under which storage based on adiabatic dynamics is preferable to non-adiabatic pulses. Moreover, we systematically determine the shortest photon pulse that can be efficiently stored as a function of the system parameters.

Structural and dielectric properties of sol–gel derived Ba<sub>1–<i>x</i></sub>Sr<sub><i>x</i></sub>TiO<sub>3</sub> (0 ≤ <i>x</i> ≤ 0.5) ceramics for energy storage applications
摘要: Barium strontium titanate (Ba1–xSrxTiO3, BSTO: x = 0, 0.3 and 0.5) ceramics were prepared by sintering sol–gel derived BSTO powders at 1350 °C for 2 h. Average grain size of BSTO ceramics decreased from 15 to 2 μm with increasing Sr molar fraction. X-ray structural analysis revealed that BSTO ceramics exhibited tetragonal structure (x = 0 and 0.3) and transformed into cubic structure at high Sr molar fraction (x = 0.5) at room temperature. Dielectric constant of the BSTO ceramics was measured between ?60 and 180 °C and frequency range of 1–100 kHz. Temperature transition from ferroelectric to paraelectric phase (Curie temperature: TC) decreased linearly from 125 to ?30 °C as Sr molar fraction increased. The dielectric constant exhibited frequency-independent behavior in the frequency range investigated. A diffuse dielectric constant peak was evident for BSTO with Sr molar fraction of 0.5 due to the effect of fine-grained size. Polarization–electric field (P–E) at room temperature presented a well-defined hysteresis loop for BSTO (x = 0 and 0.3), indicating their ferroelectric characteristics. At a high Sr molar fraction of 0.5, the P–E loop became a linear relation, indicating a paraelectric phase. Energy storage density of BSTO with x = 0 was about 0.2 J/cm3; however, energy storage efficiency was less than 50%. After doping with Sr molar fraction of 0.5, energy storage density decreased to 0.1 J/cm3 but its energy storage efficiency significantly improved to 90%.

Growth Temperature and Electrochemical Performance in Vapor-Deposited Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) Thin Films for High-Rate Electrochemical Energy Storage
摘要: Poly(ethylene 3,4-dioxythiophene (PEDOT) ?lms synthesized by oxidative chemical vapor deposition (oCVD) display strong electrochemical activity in the region from 2 to 4.2 V vs Li/Li+. By contrast, the more commonly studied PEDOT:polystyrenesulfonate (PSS) ?lms have negligible electrochemical activity in this region. For the oCVD ?lms, its small dopant anions (Cl?) that can easily enter and exit the polymer structure allow exchange with the Li+ counterion in solution, while for PEDOT:PSS, the poly(styrenesulfonate) dopant is a large macromolecule having substantially lower mobility. Here, we seek to elucidate the relationship between the structural characteristics of oCVD PEDOT thin ?lms and their electrochemical properties, particularly in Li-ion electrolyte systems. Speci?cally, we seek to rationally design the thin-?lm properties of oCVD PEDOT for high-rate performance and cycle life by varying the ?lm growth temperature. We observe that the dominant e?ect of increasing growth temperature is an in situ reorganization to an edge-on ?lm texture. In this case, the π?π stack is perpendicular to the substrate surface. The alternative dominant texture is face-on dominance, where the π?π stack is parallel to the substrate surface. For the ?rst time, we show that edge-on dominant ?lms provide higher speci?c capacities for a given charge/discharge rate. Furthermore, Raman spectroscopy demonstrates that edge-on dominant ?lms are less susceptible to oxidative damage after long-term cycling. This also enables edge-on dominant ?lms to maintain lower charge-transfer resistances compared to identically cycled face-on ?lms. Edge-on oCVD PEDOT is paired with molybdenum disul?de to demonstrate thick, optimized oCVD PEDOT thin ?lms in asymmetric devices for high-rate electrochemical energy storage.

High Charge Carrier Storage Capacity in Lithium Lutetium Silicate Doped with Cerium and Thulium
摘要: It is demonstrated that LiLuSiO4:Ce,Tm has excellent charge carrier storage properties. Comparative studies are performed with the state-of-the art X-ray storage phosphor BaFBr(I):Eu. The thermoluminescence (TL) intensity of the optimized LiLuSiO4:Ce,Tm is four times higher than the TL of BaFBr(I):Eu. After 3 h of storage at room temperature (RT) there is still 94% of initial thermoluminescence and only 48% for BaFBr(I):Eu which demonstrates insignificant thermal fading. The signal can be read out by a blue LED and less efficiently by a red laser. It does require higher stimulation energy than in the case of BaFBr(I):Eu. The self-irradiation with a dose rate of 13 mGy h due to 176Lu isotopes is not a serious drawback for application.

Scheduling of PV inverter reactive power set-point and battery charge/discharge profile for voltage regulation in low voltage networks
摘要: In recent years, renewable energies and storage systems are bringing a significant contribution to power system. Due to the high penetration of non-predictable power sources, especially in the distribution networks, new challenges related to the integration and management of these new resources also combined with storage systems arose in power system research. Accordingly, the aim of this paper is to propose an innovative scheduling method for voltage regulation in low voltage networks. A simple type of contract for ancillary services that foresees the participation of active users endowed with a storage system coupled with a PV system is considered. The method allows to regulate the voltage in a distribution system by using a combined PV and storage system. The voltage regulation is achieved by setting the value of the inverter reactive power on the basis of sensitivity coefficients of the considered node, taking into account the capability curve constrains, as required by new grid codes. A possible tariff policy is also proposed for the ancillary service and for the operation of the realization of the scheduling algorithm. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method for the scheduling of the power system.
