Characteristics of Bilayer Molybdenum Films Deposited Using RF Sputtering for Back Contact of Thin Film Solar Cells by Sea-Fue Wang, Hsiao-Ching Yang, Chien-Fong Liu, Huy-Yun Y. Bor

“…The films revealed a columnar growth with a preferred orientation along the (110) plane. The bilayer Mo films reported an electrical resistivity of 6.35 × 10−5 Ω-cm and passed the Scotch tape test for adhesion to the soda-lime glass substrate, thereby qualifying the bilayer Mo films for use as back metal contacts for CIGS substrates.…”

Ni-catalysed acceptorless dehydrogenative aromatisation of cyclohexanones enabled by concerted catalysis specific to supported nanoparticles by Takehiro Matsuyama, Takafumi Yatabe, Tomohiro Yabe, Kazuya Yamaguchi

“…Abstract The dehydrogenative aromatisation of cyclohexanone derivatives has had a transformative influence on the synthesis of aromatic compounds because functional groups can be easily introduced at desired positions via classic organic reactions without being limited by ortho-, meta- or para-orientations. However, research is still limited on acceptorless dehydrogenative aromatisation, especially with regard to nonprecious-metal catalysts. …”
