The CuOx layer is fabricated by simply spin-coating a copper acetylacetonate(Cu(acac)2) chloroform solution onto ITO glass with high transparency in the visible range. The compact and pinhole-free perovskite film with large grain domains is grown on the CuOx film. The inverted PVSCs with the structure of ITO/CuOx/MAPbI3/PC(61)BM/ZnO/Al are fabricated and show a best PCE of 17.43% under standard AM 1.5G simulated solar irradiation with a VOCof 1.03 V, aJ(SC) of 22.42 mA cm^(-2), and a fill factor of 0.76, which is significantly higher and more stable than that fabricated from the often used hole-transporting material PEDOT:PSS(11.98%) under the same experimental conditions. The enhanced performance is attributed to the efficient hole extraction through the CuOx layer as well as the high-quality CH3NH3PbI3 films grown on the CuOx. Our results indicate that low-cost and solution-processed CuOx film is a promising HTL for high performance PVSCs with better stability.展开更多

Although there are many schemes proposed to optimize the underwater acoustic network communication protocols, from physical layer, data link layer, network layer to transport layer, the existing routing protocols for underwater wireless sensor network(UWSN) still cannot well deal with the problems in transmitting multimedia data because of the difficulties involved in high energy consumption, low transmission reliability or high transmission delay. It prevents us from applying underwater multimedia data to real-time monitoring of marine environment in practical application, especially in emergency search, rescue operation and military field. Therefore, the inefficient transmission of marine multimedia data has become a serious problem that needs to be solved urgently. In this paper, A Layered Load Balance Routing Protocol(L2-LBMT) is proposed for underwater multimedia data transmission. In L2-LBMT, we use layered and load-balance Ad Hoc Network to transmit data, and adopt segmented data reliable transfer(SDRT) protocol to improve the data transport reliability. And a 3-node variant of tornado(3-VT) code is also combined with the Ad Hoc Network to transmit little emergency data more quickly. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol can balance energy consumption of each node, effectively prolong the network lifetime and reduce transmission delay of marine multimedia data.展开更多

The tree was growing in an orchard located in Yangling District, Shaanxi Province, China. The leaves started as chlorotic and yellowing along leaf minor veins and leaf tips. Chlorosis rapidly developed to inter-veinal areas with the whole leaf becoming pale yellow in about 1-4 wk. Large numbers of phytoplasma-like bodies(PLBs) were seen under transmission electron microscopy. The majority of the PLBs was spherical or elliptical vesicles, with diameters in range of 0.1-0.6 μm, and distributed in the phloem cells of the infected tissues. A 1 246-bp 16 S ribosomal RNA(rRNA) gene fragment was amplified from DNA samples extracted from the yellow leaf tissues using two phytoplasma universal primer pairs R16mF2/R16mR1 and R16F2n/R16R2. Phylogenetic analysis using the 16 S rRNA gene sequence suggested that the phytoplasma associated with the yellow leaf symptoms belongs to a novel subclade in the aster yellows(AY) group(16SrI group). Virtual and actual restriction fragment length polymorphism(RFLP) analysis of the 16 S rRNA gene fragment revealed that the phytoplasma was distinguishable from all existing 19 subgroups in the AY group(16SrI) by four restriction sites, Hinf I, Mse I, Sau3 A I and Taq I. The similarity coefficients of comparing the RFLP pattern of the 16 S rRNA gene fragment of this phytoplasma to each of the 19 reported subgroups ranged from 0.73 to 0.87, which indicates the phytoplasma associated with the cherry plum yellow leaf(CPYL) symptoms is probably a distinct and novel subgroup lineage in the AY group(16SrI). In addition, the novel phytoplasma was experimentally transmitted to periwinkle(Catharanthus roseus) plants from the tree with CPYL symptoms and then back to a healthy 1-yr-old cherry plum tree via dodder(Cuscuta odorata) connections.展开更多
