Abstract: The invention provides a quantum dots-sensitized solar cell and a method of enhancing the optoelectronic performance of a quantum dots-sensitized solar cell using a co-adsorbent, in which a bifunctional molecule is used as the co-adsorbent and is mixed with aqueous quantum dots to form a quantum dots sensitizer, thereby improving the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell.

Abstract: A set of training vectors may be identified. Each training vector may be mapped to either a male gender or a female gender, and each training vector may represent facial landmarks derived from a respective facial image. An input vector of facial landmarks may also be identified. The facial landmarks of the input vector may be derived from a particular facial image. A feature vector may containing a subset of the facial landmarks may be selected from the input vector. A weighted comparison may be performed between the feature vector and each of the training vectors. Based on a result of the weighted comparison, the particular facial image may be classified as either the male gender or the female gender.

Abstract: A source driver for LCD devices, used for driving at least one data line, comprises an input for receiving a predetermined voltage; an output electrically being connected to the data line and having an output voltage; a voltage clamping circuit for clamping the output voltage within a predetermined voltage range; a first differential amplifier for increasing the clamped output voltage toward the predetermined voltage; and a second differential amplifier for decreasing the clamped output voltage toward the predetermined voltage. The present invention also provides a source driving method for LCD devices.
