The temporal-resolution of the frequency-domain method for the identification of the impedance locus depends on the basis frequency used in the current waveform construction, i.e., the higher basis frequency provides the better temporal resolution. The impedance locus can be characterized by the impedance parameters Z0, beta, and taum. The frequency distribution of limited number of data in the impedance locus would affect the accuracy of the estimated impedance parameters. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between the estimation accuracy of the impedance parameters and the frequency coverage of the impedance locus in relatively low to high impedance conditions (dc impedance Z0= 51 k ohms - 45 M ohms). As the basis frequency, 100 Hz was enough for the usual impedance with Z0 less than 203 k ohms. On the other hand, 10 Hz and 1 Hz were required for the medium-level (Z0 = 517 k ohms), and high-level (Z0 = 45 M ohms) impedance, respectively. The required basis frequency, accordingly the temporal resolution, depended much on the central relaxation time taum which affects the frequency distribution on the impedance locus. The results of this study are expected to serve as the reference of the frequency selection in the frequency-domain analysis of the skin impedance.

The proportion of distributed generation systems in power grids is increasing, leading to the gradual emergence of weak grid characteristics. Moreover, using voltage-sourced grid-connected inverters can enhance the stability of a weak grid. However, due to the presence of background harmonics in weak grids, the grid voltage can cause significant distortions in the grid-connected current, which adversely affects the quality of the grid-connected current.

In this study, to elucidate the origin of inductance and its relationship with the phenomenon of hysteresis in hybrid perovskite solar cells (PSCs), two electron transport layer (ETL) structures have been utilized: (a) rutile titania nanorods grown over anatase titania (AR) and (b) anatase titania covering the rutile titania nanorods (RA). The rutile and anatase phases are prepared hydrothermal synthesis and spray pyrolysis, respectively. PSCs based on an ETL with an RA structure attain higher short-circuit current density () and open-circuit voltage () while showing a slightly lower fill factor (FF) compared with their AR counterparts.

A key trait conferring flood tolerance is the ability to grow adventitious roots as a response to submergence. The genetic traits of deepwater rice determining the development and characteristics of aquatic adventitious roots (AAR) had not been evaluated. We used near-isogenic lines introgressed to test the hypothesis that the impressive shoot elongation ability of deepwater rice linked to quantitative trait loci 1 and 12 also promote the development of AAR.

Methods: We examined the genomic landscape of a patient cohort of LMs ( = 30 cases) that underwent comprehensive genomic profiling using a large-panel next-generation sequencing assay. Immunohistochemical analyses were completed in parallel.
