(author), Pollitz, Fred (author), Okal, Emile (author), Jeon, Taehwan (author), Seo, Ki Weon (author), Stanaway, Richard (author)Earthquakes involve mass redistribution within the solid Earth and the ocean, and as a result, perturb the Earth's gravitational field. For most of the shallow (<60 km) earthquakes with M<sub>w</sub> > 8.0, the GRACE satellite gravity measurements suggest considerable volumetric disturbance of rocks. At a spatial scale of hundreds of km...journal article 2024

(author), Isabella, O. (author)Passivating contacts based on poly-Si have enabled record-high c-Si solar cell efficiencies due to their excellent surface passivation quality and carrier selectivity. The eventual existence of pinholes within the ultra-thin SiOx layer is one of the key factors for carrier collection, beside the tunneling mechanism. However, pinholes are usually...journal article 2023
