The laminar free convection in a compound parabolic concentrator (CPC) solar collector cavity is numerically simulated using the finite element method. Results are presented for representative CPC collectors with tubular absorbers of concentration ratio 2. The effect of Grashof number, truncation and tilt angle were investigated. Generally, higher rates of heat transfer between the tubular absorber and the flat cover plate of the cavity are associated with larger Grashof numbers and shallower cavities. The maximum heat transfer rates occur when the tilt angle is about 60 deg. Contour plots are obtained for the field variables and these provide an insight into the spatial characteristics of the convective mechanisms within the cavity.

We present the results of a series of numerical study of a-Si:H solar cells on different V- grooved substrates. The light absorption profiles were calculated by taking into account the V-groove inner reflection and the reflection at the glass/air interface. These profiles were used for modeling the performance of solar cells with the 1-D Amorphous Semiconductor Analysis (ASA) computer package, which has been developed in our laboratory. The J-V characteristics under AMI.5 and the external quantum efficiency axe simulated for V- grooves with different tilt-angles (0 degree for flat substrate). Results show that effective light trapping occurs for V-grooves with tilt-angle larger than 21 degrees.

There have Been a number of studies of low-angle, θ < 4°, [10] tilt boundaries in the diamond lattice. Dislocations with Burgers vectors a/2<110>, a/2<112>, a<111> and a<001> have been reported in melt-grown bicrystals of germanium, and dislocations with Burgers vectors a<001> and a/2<112> have been reported in hot-pressed bicrystals of silicon. Most of the dislocations were found to be dissociated, the dissociation widths being dependent on the tilt angle. Possible dissociation schemes and formation mechanisms for the a<001> and a<111> dislocations from the interaction of lattice dislocations have recently been given.The present study reports on the dislocation structure of a 10° [10] tilt boundary in chemically vapor deposited silicon. The dislocations in the boundary were spaced about 1-3nm apart, making them difficult to resolve by conventional diffraction contrast techniques. The dislocation structure was therefore studied by the lattice-fringe imaging technique.

Figure 1 shows the design of a specimen stage used for the in situ observation of phase transformations in the temperature range between ambient and −160°C. The design has the following features a high degree of specimen stability during tilting linear tilt actuation about two orthogonal axes for accurate control of tilt angle read-out high angle tilt range for stereo work and habit plane determination simple, robust construction temperature control of better than ±0.5°C minimum thermal drift and transmission of vibration from the cooling system.

There are certain advantages for electron probe analysis if the sample can be tilted directly towards the detector. The count rate is higher, it optimizes the geometry since only one angle need be taken into account for quantitative analysis and the signal to background ratio is improved. The need for less tilt angle may be an advantage because the grid bars are not moved quite as close to each other, leaving a little more open area for observation. Our present detector (EDAX) and microscope (Philips 300) combination precludes moving the detector behind the microscope where it would point directly at the grid. Therefore, the angle of the specimen was changed in order to optimize the geometry between the specimen and the detector.

The tomographic reconstruction from multiple projections of cellular components, within a thick section, offers a way of visualizing and quantifying their three-dimensional (3D) structure. However, asymmetric objects require as many views from the widest tilt range as possible; otherwise the reconstruction may be uninterpretable. Even if not for geometric obstructions, the increasing pathway of electrons, as the tilt angle is increased, poses the ultimate upper limitation to the projection range. With the maximum tilt angle being fixed, the only way to improve the faithfulness of the reconstruction is by changing the mode of the tilting from single-axis to conical; a point within the object projected with a tilt angle of 60° and a full 360° azimuthal range is then reconstructed as a slightly elliptic (axis ratio 1.2 : 1) sphere.
