Health Assessment of Artisanal Metal Work: Injury Patterns, Aerosol Exposures, and Biomonitoring
Artisanal metal sculptors are an often independent and self-employed workforce whose contributions to the cultural landscape remain underrecognized in public health research. Despite sustained exposure to airborne particulates and acute injury hazards, these workers operate outside traditional …

Theoretical investigation of energy alignment at metal/semiconductor interfaces for solar photovoltaic applications
Our work was inspired by the need to improve the efficiency of new types of solar cells. We mainly focus on metal-semiconductor interfaces. In the CdSe study, we find that not all surface states serve to pin the Fermi energy. In our organic-metal work, we explore the complexity and challenges of …

Through a painters eye: exploration in enameling: jewelry and wall panels
… publication is the discussion and examination of work produced for the degree of Masters of Fine Arts in enameling and metal work. The body of work created consists of enameled brooches and wall panels. The thesis paper documents the technical and aesthetic developments in painting and metals as …

Dependence of rare-gas adsorbate dipole moment on substrate work function
… behaviors of rare gas adsorbed on various metals has been a puzzle for more than two decades. On refractory metals, the deduction of the metal work functions is unexpectedly large, while on simple metals, the effect is nearly undetectably small. The ""switching"" theory proposed by Flynn …

Fundamental and applied aspects of contact electrification
… Measurements of the charge transferred to metal contact spheres, and the two-dimensional dielectric surface charge distribution, have been carried out under controlled conditions. The dissipation processes of air breakdown and bulk condution have been studied. The importance of metal work …

Electronic structure, defect formation and passivation of 2D materials
… nitrides. The SBH has a linear relationship with metal work function but the slope does not always equal because Fermi level pinning (FLP) arises. The chemical trend of FLP is investigated. Then we show that the pinning factor of Si can be tuned by inserting an oxide interlayer, which is important …

Solar Cells with Passivating Contacts − Investigation of Their Temperature- and Illumination-Dependent Performance and Surface Passivation
… to eliminate the recombination at the Si/metal interface which significantly impacts the cell performance due to the extremely high surface recombination velocity. Up to now, the characterisation of the performance of solar cells with passivating contacts has been typically conducted at …
