    Abstract We present a solar thermionic energy converter (STEC) incorporating interelectrode spacer structures for solar energy harvesting. We demonstrate the impact of spacer loss on the optimal performance and gap size of STECs with and without interelectrode spacers. Under a solar concentration factor of 100, we show that the maximum efficiency of STECs with a spacer (5.3%) is significantly lower than that of STECs without a spacer (8.7%) at different optimal gaps due to the interelectrode spacer that conducts heat parasitically. The optimal gap ranges from a few tenths of a micron to a few microns for STECs without spacers, while the optimal gap is around 8

    Abstract Background: Objective structured practical examination (OSPE) has proven a reliable assessment tool in many specialities. Therefore, we aimed to construct an OSPE tool that could assess the clinical facial anatomy knowledge of non-surgical aesthetic practitioners in a simulated environment.
    Approach: Ten subject matter experts identified the themes individually with significant experience in teaching non-surgical aesthetic practitioners. A consensus is then reached following extensive discussion to determine the final themes. After blueprinting, 25 stations were created comprising a single best answer with a clinical vignette and either a dissected Cephalus or a high-resolution picture of a dissected Cephalus or a skull and a full-face photograph of a patient. Finally, concurrent and construct validity were assessed for individual questions. Twenty-five novices and 25 experts participated in the OSPE pilot. Each cycle lasted 45 minutes (90 seconds per station; 25 clinical and five rest stations). Internal reliability was measured by Cronbach's alpha. In addition, the novices and experts group scores were compared, employing an independent t-test.
    Evaluation: The mean item difficulty of the 25 questions was 0.65. There was a significant difference in the scores for experts (M = 48.56, SD = 1.003), novices (M = 33.60, SD = 3.18) and conditions; t (48) = 22.38, p = 0.000. These results suggest the construct validity and confirm the robustness of the OSPE set-up to accomplish the learning outcomes.
    Implication: We successfully designed and validated OSPE as an assessment tool to examine non-surgical aesthetic practitioners' clinical facial anatomy knowledge. We envisage using OSPE in our future programmes and encourage programme directors to integrate it into the postgraduate curriculum in non-surgical aesthetics.

    Abstract We present an experimental technique to construct the response of nonlinear resonators under harmonic excitation as a control parameter is swept. Our technique can resolve nonlinear features in the resonator response, such as bifurcations and hysteresis. To validate it, we construct the frequency response of a MEMS resonator while the excitation frequency is swept. The response is measured optically and recorded in the time domain. The root-mean-square of the response is calculated over a variable-size time-window. The sweep time, window size, and frequency step size were found to be limited by the quality factor of the resonator under test. We examine and describe those limitations in terms of the slew rate and sampling frequency. Although we used optical measurements to validate the technique, the methods described herein are applicable to any measured response signal.

    Abstract Semiconductors have been used in solar energy conversion for decades based on the photovoltaic effect. An important challenge of photovoltaics is the undesired heat generated within the device. An alternative approach is thermionics, which uses the thermal excitation of electrons from an emitter to a collector across a vacuum gap. If the emitter is a p-type semiconductor, the photogeneration-induced quasi-Fermi level splitting can reduce the effective barrier for electron emission-a mechanism used by a photon enhanced thermionic emission device. Here, we evaluate the prospects of this alternative solar conversion technology considering different semiconductor materials and thermionic device configurations. We also reveal that whether such a device operates in the photon enhanced or purely thermionic mode, depends on the complex interplay among materials properties, device physics and solar concentration level.
