The ternary selenides A2Sb4Se8 (A = K, Rb, Cs) are predicted to be a high-performance n-type thermoelectric material, and the conformationally-flexible Sb–Se(2)–Se(2)–Sb bridges are crucial in determining the thermoelectric properties of A2Sb4Se8.

Este articulo presenta el diseño, simulación e implementación de un cargador off-board de baterías de mediana y baja capacidad que incorpora un corrector de factor de potencia, alcanza una baja distorsión armónica (THD) en corriente y permite la implementación de tres diferentes estrategias de carga. Este cargador está compuesto de una etapa de aislamiento galvánico, seguida por un puente rectificador el cual es conectado a un convertidor Boost quien regula el factor de potencia y el THD. Por otro lado, un convertidor Buck es conectado a la salida del convertidor Boost, actuando como una fuente de corriente o tensión, dependiendo de la estrategia de carga que se implemente. Posteriormente, se presentan los resultados haciendo énfasis en el valor de 0.978 para el factor de potencia y el de 5.7% para el THD, el cual es comparado con el estándar IEC 61000-3-2. Finalmente, se evalúa la eficiencia del prototipo encontrando un valor máximo de 91.1% y luego se presentan las conclusiones.

A novel single-switch single-stage high power factor LED driver is proposed by integrating a flyback converter, a buck–boost converter and a current balance circuit. Only an active switch and a corresponding control circuit are used. The LED power can be adjusted by the control scheme of pulse–width modulation (PWM). The flyback converter performs the function of power factor correction (PFC), which is operated at discontinuous-current mode (DCM) to achieve unity power factor and low total current harmonic distortion (THDi). The buck–boost converter regulates the dc-link voltage to obtain smooth dc voltage for the LED. The current–balance circuit applies the principle of ampere-second balance of capacitors to obtain equal current in each LED string. The steady-state analyses for different operation modes is provided, and the mathematical equations for designing component parameters are conducted. Finally, a 90-W prototype circuit with three LED strings was built and tested. Experimental results show that the current in each LED string is indeed consistent. High power factor and low THDi can be achieved. LED power is regulated from 100% to 25% rated power. Satisfactory performance has proved the feasibility of this circuit.
