文摘We develop a dual porous （DP） TiO2 film for the electron transporting layer （ETL） in carbon cathode based perovskite solar cells （C-PSCs）.

文摘In this paper,we develop an efficient numericalmethod based on the boundary integral equation formulation and new version of fast multipole method to solve the boundary value problem for the stress field associated with dislocations in a finite medium.Numerical examples are presented to examine the influence from material boundaries on dislocations.
