Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the relevant recombination pathways is needed. Here, intensity-dependent measurements of the quasi-Fermi level splitting (QFLS) and of the VOC on the very same devices, including pin-type PSCs with efficiencies above 20\%, are performed. It is found that the QFLS in the perovskite lies significantly below its radiative limit for all intensities but also that the VOC is generally lower than the QFLS, violating one main assumption of the Shockley-Queisser theory. This has far-reaching implications for the applicability of some well-established techniques, which use the VOC as a measure of the carrier densities in the absorber. By performing drift-diffusion simulations, the intensity dependence of the QFLS, the QFLS-VOC offset and the ideality factor are consistently explained by trap-assisted recombination and energetic misalignment at the interfaces. Additionally, it is found that the saturation of the VOC at high intensities is caused by insufficient contact selectivity while heating effects are of minor importance. It is concluded that the analysis of the VOC does not provide reliable conclusions of the recombination pathways and that the knowledge of the QFLS-VOC relation is of great importance.}, language = {en} } @article{ZeuschnerParpiievPezeriletal.2019, author = {Zeuschner, Steffen Peer and Parpiiev, Tymur and Pezeril, Thomas and Hillion, Arnaud and Dumesnil, Karine and Anane, Abdelmadjid and Pudell, Jan-Etienne and Willig, Lisa and R{\"o}ssle, Matthias and Herzog, Marc and von Reppert, Alexander and Bargheer, Matias}, title = {Tracking picosecond strain pulses in heterostructures that exhibit giant magnetostriction}, series = {Structural Dynamics}, volume = {6}, journal = {Structural Dynamics}, number = {2}, publisher = {AIP Publishing LLC}, address = {Melville, NY}, issn = {2329-7778}, doi = {10.1063/1.5084140}, pages = {9}, year = {2019}, abstract = {We combine ultrafast X-ray diffraction (UXRD) and time-resolved Magneto-Optical Kerr Effect (MOKE) measurements to monitor the strain pulses in laser-excited TbFe2/Nb heterostructures.

This is generally accompanied by a reduction in traits attracting pollinators, including reduced emission of floral scent. In Capsella, emission of benzaldehyde as a main component of floral scent has been lost in selfing C. rubella by mutation of cinnamate-CoA ligase CNL1. However, the biochemical basis and evolutionary history of this loss remain unknown, as does the reason for the absence of benzaldehyde emission in the independently derived selfer Capsella orientalis. We used plant transformation, in vitro enzyme assays, population genetics and quantitative genetics to address these questions. CNL1 has been inactivated twice independently by point mutations in C. rubella, causing a loss of enzymatic activity. Both inactive haplotypes are found within and outside of Greece, the centre of origin of C. rubella, indicating that they arose before its geographical spread. By contrast, the loss of benzaldehyde emission in C. orientalis is not due to an inactivating mutation in CNL1. CNL1 represents a hotspot for mutations that eliminate benzaldehyde emission, potentially reflecting the limited pleiotropy and large effect of its inactivation. Nevertheless, even closely related species have followed different evolutionary routes in reducing floral scent.}, language = {en} }
