Towards electrically injected colloidal semiconductor lasers by Thung, Yi Tian

“…Addressing this gap, I explored electrical charge injection into Br--capped CdSe NPLs using an inverted p-i-n device architecture, resulting in narrow electroluminescence at 530 nm. The findings emphasize the significance of an appropriate device architecture for balanced charge injection, crucial for radiative recombination in the NPL gain medium—a key factor in achieving electrically injected NPL lasers. …”

Rotor angle stability-constrained dispatch and control of large-scale wind penetrated power system by Yuan, Heling

“…In general, four main effects on power system transient stability are: 1) wind generation has no contribution to system inertia and system with synchronous generators replaced by wind turbines will lead to reduction of inertia, 2) power electronics converter-based interfacing is added when wind turbines are implemented, which will change the dynamic behavior of the system, 3) power dispatch of synchronous machines will change fast to compensate wind power variation, 4) the magnitude and direction of power flows will fluctuate quickly and randomly in the transmission lines. Hence, it is an essential and significant problem to maintain system’s stability with high level wind power penetration. …”
