Indium phosphide colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) are the main alternative for toxic and restricted Cd based CQDs for lighting and display applications. Here we systematically report on the size-dependent optical absorption, ensemble, and single particle photoluminescence (PL) and biexciton lifetimes of core-only InP CQDs. This systematic study...

In Belgium the construction of a repository for low and intermediate short living radioactive waste is in preparation. The safety is, among other aspects, based on engineered barriers of cementitious materials preventing release of radionuclides to the atmosphere or to the surrounding soil. Relatively low water infiltration through these...

Excessive consumption of non - renewable resources in the recent times has negative effects on the environment, one of the important of which include global warming. This suggests an urgent need for adaption to the sustainable use of the resources, for which the thermal technologies show a lot of scope. Absorption heat pump is a type of heat...

Renewable energy projects, such as wind and solar (PV) parks, are rapidly being built to replace fossil fuel based energy sources. The major drawback of electricity production from renewable sources is that they are intermittent and therefore lead to amismatch between the supply and the demand of energy. Energy storage in the form of hydrogen...

Background: During several anesthesiological procedures, needles are inserted through the skin of a patient to target nerves. In most cases, the needle traverses several tissues—skin, subcutaneous adipose tissue, muscles, nerves, and blood vessels—to reach the target nerve. A clear identification of the target nerve can improve the success of...

The study presented here aims to develop the use of recycled aggregate issued of concrete in total replacement of natural materials (sand and gravel). In regard to natural aggregates, recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) contain mortar that influences theirs properties and those of concrete in which they are used (RCA). The objective of this work...

Absorption refrigeration cycles are energy saving as they can be driven by waste heat instead of electricity. By doing so, they reduce the use of fossil fuels, resulting in a reduction of emissions. However, many challenges exist for the traditional working fluids of the cycle, such as the crystallization problem of the water-lithium bromide...

The energy consumption in the industry field is considerable. Saving energy has great potential in many industrial processes. For example, heat recovery from the spent cooling water can be achieved by applying heat pump technology, and the recovered heat can be used for district heating. Previous study indicates that the compression-resorption...

Compression resorption heat pumps (CRHP) are a promising option to upgrade waste heat from industry. Alternative working fluids can further improve the efficiency of CRHP. The ternary mixture NH3-CO2-H2O has been identified as a promising working fluid for CRHP and has the potential to further enhance the coefficient of performance (COP) of the...

At present, research in c-Si solar cells is focused on increasing the efficiency while reducing the amount of used materials. Since silicon wafer and metal contribute up to 50% to the cost of a module, it is crucial to reduce the amount of these materials to fabricate cost-effective modules. In particular, for reducing the consumption of metal,...

We present a broadband quantum cascade laser-based spectroscopic system covering the region between 850 and 1250 cm?1. Its robust multipass cavity ensures a constant interaction length over the entire spectral region. The device enables the detection and identification of numerous molecules present in a complex gas mixture without any pre...

Solar energy can fulfil mankind’s energy needs and secure a more balanced distribution of primary sources of energy. Wafer-based and thin-film silicon solar cells dominate todays’ photovoltaic market because silicon is a non-toxic and abundant material and high conversion efficiencies are achieved with silicon-based solar cells. To stay...
