Progress in Interactive Textiles for Health Monitoring
(2012)Interactive textiles have the capability to interact with the user, which means they embed sensors, local intelligence and actuators to achieve this goal. This interactivity requires to dispose of smart textiles, made of ... -
Progression towards high efficiency perovskite solar cells via optimisation of the front electrode and blocking layer
(2016)The effects of a fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) electrode, titanium dioxide (TiO2-x) blocking layer (BL) and perovskite (methyl ammonium lead triiodide) preparation on the overall properties of the photovoltaic cells have ... -
Proof-of-Concept Study for Reflectance Pulse Oximetry Using Optical-Fibre-Based Sensors
(2022)Optical fibres enable to design of new textile-based sensors for an unobtrusive, continuous, and long-term acquisition of photoplethysmography (PPG) signals. However, no detailed information is available in the scientific ... -
Properties of Broadband Soliton Microcombs in Pulse-Driven Integrated Microresonators
(2019)Recently, pulse-driving of nonlinear microresonators, as opposed to continuous-wave driving (CW), has been demonstrated as a powerful method for overcoming the fundamental inefficiency of single-state dissipative Kerr ... -
Properties of mixed phase silicon-oxide-based passivating contacts for silicon solar cells
(2018)We investigate the properties of an electron selective front contact based on a phosphorous doped mixed-phase SiOx/Si layer stack at device level. The addition of the SiOx phase to the Si layer targets reduced optical ... -
PULSAR: development of a mirror tile prototype for future large telescopes robotically assembled in space
(2020-12-13)The H2020 project PULSAR (Prototype for an Ultra Large Structure Assembly Robot) development objective is to create three demonstrators that that will pave the way for the construction of large structures in orbit. The ... -
Pulse Oximetry at the Wrist During Sleep: Performance, Challenges and Perspectives
(2020-07)The state-of-the-art non-invasive measurement of peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) during sleep is mainly based on pulse oximetry at the fingertip. Although this approach is noninvasive, it can still be obtrusive and ... -
Pulse Wave Analysis of Photoplethysmography Signals to Enhance Classification of Cardiac Arrhythmias
(2022-09)Photoplethysmography (PPG) has recently gained increasing interest for less obtrusive long-term cardiovascular monitoring. As for cardiac arrhythmia (CA), most research and available PPG devices have focused on the detection ... -

Quantifying and Modeling the Impact of Interconnection Failures on the Electrical Performance of Crystalline Silicon Photovoltaic Modules
(2018)We present an electrical model developed with LT SPICE that simulates the performance of a string of cells with disconnections in the electrical circuit. In a previous contribution, we quantified experimentally how the ... -
Quantifying and modeling the impact of interconnection failures on the electrical performance of crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules
(2019)Failures in the metallic interconnections are among the main degradation modes for photovoltaic modules. Fatigue accumulation due to thermomechanical stresses can result in deterioration of the solder joints or in broken ... -
Quantifying competitive grain overgrowth in polycrystalline ZnO thin films
(2019)The grain size evolution of polycrystalline thin films, which form by competitive grain overgrowth as commonly interpreted using the van der Drift model, is understood to follow a power-law scaling of the average grain ... -
Quantifying the potential of smart heat pump control to increase the self consumption of photovoltaic electricity in buildings
(2018)Energy management systems that efficiently use self-produced renewable energy are becoming popular. However, quantifying their benefits in terms of self-consumption increase and associated financial benefits, is difficult ... -
Quantitative Micro-Raman Spectroscopy for Partial Pressure Measurement in Small Volumes
(2017-12-01)We demonstrate the quantitative capabilities of Raman confocal microscopy as a nondestructive method to measure the partial pressure of molecular gases in mm3 range sealed volume having an optical access. Thanks to a ...
