Fabrication and electro-optical characterization of Ruthenium-based Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

In this paper, we measure the main photoelectrical parameters of Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs) based on ruthenium complexes at different irradiance levels, incident wavelengths, temperatures and hours of light soaking

An Iranian booklet: non destructive examination by Energy Dispersive X-Ray Diffractometry and Micro-Raman Spectroscopy

Energy Dispersive X-Ray Diffractometry was used in combination with micro-Raman Spectroscopy to study an undated illuminated Iranian booklet. In both cases, no preliminary preparation of the samples was needed: the data were acquired in a non-destructive way in a natural environment. The book is of particular interest because of the unusual presence of miniatures on some pages. The two techniques were used to collect data from small areas of the pages and in different regions of the miniature in order to identify inks and pigments and to attempt chronological assignment. Raman spectra were affected by strong background fluorescence. In spite of this, different peaks were detected and identi…
