Abstract: A method of fabricating a perovskite solar cell includes forming a hole transport layer on a transparent electrically conductive substrate, and forming a perovskite layer on the hole transport layer via a two-stage vacuum evaporation process. Then, an electron transport layer and an electrode layer are formed in order. The two-stage vacuum evaporation process includes first vacuum evaporating a first material on the hole transport layer and then vacuum evaporating a second material on the first material so as to react the first material with the second material in situ and form the perovskite layer.

Abstract: A method and system is proposed to create a generative model to interpolate any view of a planar scene given a sequence of reference views and a synthesis view that is optimized by the marginalization of photometric regulation, and geometric registration parameters. According to one aspect of the claimed subject matter, a technique is proposed to combine information from varying input camera poses. Planar homography based image super resolution in free view interpolation for planar structure is applied to the combined information. Non-redundant information is combined in such a manner that the high resolution and free view problems in traditional 2D based image-based rendering techniques are overcome.

Abstract: A multiplexed space-time block coding (M-STBC) scheme is described that allows for transmitting a single multicast transmission in a heterogeneous MIMO (i.e., multiple-input and multiple-output) environment, where receivers with fewer antennas can receive a lower resolution version of the multi-cast transmission, while receivers with a greater number of antennas can receive a higher resolution version of the multi-cast transmission. Thus, the M-STBC scheme allows for transmitting the single multicast transmission that includes both a spatial multiplexing mode and a diversity mode.

Abstract: Multi-level symbols generated by applying a Random Projection Code (RPC) to a source bit sequence are received at a receiver via a noisy channel. The received multi-level symbols are represented in a bipartite graph as constraint nodes connected via weighted edges to binary variable nodes that represent the source bit sequence. A decoder uses ZigZag deconvolution to generate constraint node messages as part of an iterative belief propagation to decode the source bit sequence from the received multi-level symbols.

A sealing bag 1 that dissolves hydrogen gas in a liquid by being put into the liquid includes a hydrogen permeable film that can permeate hydrogen gas that is sealed and filled in the sealing bag to outside. By sinking this sealing bag 1 into the liquid in advance, the hydrogen gas that is permeated through the hydrogen permeable film is dissolved in the liquid. Furthermore, since the hydrogen gas is continuously permeated little by little through the hydrogen permeable film, the solubility of the hydrogen in the liquid can be maintained at a high state.
