Analysis of the deposit pattern using metrics defined from the particle distribution on the target surface is provided to characterize the deposition efficiency, deposit size, and scatter due to collisions.
The fulfilment of such conditions can be assessed through the evaluation of basic criteria which include: physical and chemical harmfulness; homogeneity of the removal of the deposits; efficiency of cleaning; absence of aesthetic alteration; durability [10].
The influence of dispersant, binder and current density on deposition efficiency and deposit morphology was studied.
The penetration depth of the liquid into the plasma jet has a significant effect on the position of the adherent deposits and the deposition efficiency.
In exposure experiments, the dose of nanoparticles depositing on the cells was calculated by applying the deposition efficiency to the inlet aerosol concentration.
This calculation is based on the following formula: daily deposited dose = graphene oxide concentration × minute volume × exposure duration × deposition efficiency.
On the other hand, 5-nm particles show about equal deposition of approximately 30% of the inhaled particles in all three regions; 20-nm particles have the highest deposition efficiency in the alveolar region (~ 50%), whereas in tracheobronchial and nasopharyngeal regions this particle size deposits with approximately 15% efficiency.
Recovery of colonies was efficient: approximately 1 colony could be isolated from approximately 13 cells deposited (clonal efficiency of 7.7%).
Using this original device architecture, we reach efficiencies close to those of state-of-the-art n i p and p i n micromorph devices, demonstrating a promising route to deposit high-efficiency thin-film silicon solar cells on opaque substrates.
In this study, the effect of electrolyte pH on deposit composition, current efficiency and anomalous codeposition was investigated in detail.
