“…RESULTS: In this study, the soft elastomeric capacitor was able to measure strain and a correlation was made to stress using a modified Kelvin-Voigt model for the canine skin sample. The sensor significantly increases the stiffness of canine skin when applied which required the derivation of mechanical models for interpretation of the results. …”

“…Key is a nanoscale charge balanced surface for the right InGaN composition, InN amount and InGaN surface morphology, depending on growth conditions and layer thickness, which is underpinned by the surface potential measured by Kelvin probe force microscopy. When paired with the InN/InGaN quantum dot sensing electrode with super-Nernstian sensitivity, where only structure design and surface morphology are changed, this completes an all-InGaN-based electrochemical sensor with unprecedented performance.…”

“…The n-i-p planar structure for TiO(2)/Sb(2)S(3)/P3HT heterojunction hybrid solar cells was conducted, and the photon-to-electron processes including illumination depth, internal electric field, drift velocity and kinetic energy of charges, photo-generated electrons and hole concentration-related surface potential in Sb(2)S(3), charge transport time, and interfacial charge recombination lifetime were studied to reveal the key factors that governed the device photocurrent. Dark J–V curves, Kelvin probe force microscope, and intensity-modulated photocurrent/photovoltage dynamics indicate that internal electric field is the main factors that affect the photocurrent when the Sb(2)S(3) thickness is less than the hole diffusion length. …”

“…The increased BLMC reinforces upward transport of moisture and heat from BL to free atmosphere and increases lower tropospheric diabatic heating by shallow and congestus clouds ahead of the MJO center, enhancing the Kelvin-Rossby wave feedback. Second, the uplift increases upper tropospheric mean easterlies and stratiform heating at the west of the MJO center, which contributes to eastward propagation of MJO by generating positive moist static energy at the east of MJO center. …”

The perovskite solar cells (PSCs) fabricated by this method demonstrate a much‐enhanced short‐circuit current density (  J (sc)) of 24.99 mA cm(−2) and a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 21.24%, which is the highest efficiency reported for pure FAPbI(3), with great stability under 800 h of thermal ageing and 500 h of light soaking in nitrogen.…”
