Double-absorber thin-film solar cell with 34% efficiency

Faiz Ahamd, Akhlesh Lakhtakia, Peter B. Monk

Power-conversion efficiency is a critical factor for the wider adoption of solar-cell modules. Thin-film solar cells are cheap and easy to manufacture, but their efficiencies are l…

norm error estimates for HDG methods applied to the Poisson equation with an application to the Dirichlet boundary control problem

Gang Chen, Peter Monk, Yangwen Zhang

We prove quasi-optimal norm error estimates (up to logarithmic factors) for the solution of Poisson's problem by the standard Hybridizable Discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) m…

Modified electromagnetic transmission eigenvalues in inverse scattering theory

Samuel Cogar, Peter Monk

A recent problem of interest in inverse problems has been the study of eigenvalue problems arising from scattering theory and their potential use as target signatures in nondestruc…

Towards highly efficient thin-film solar cells with a graded-bandgap CZTSSe layer

Faiz Ahmad, Akhlesh Lakhtakia, Tom H. Anderson +1

A coupled optoelectronic model was implemented along with the differential evolution algorithm to assess the efficacy of grading the bandgap of the CZTSSe layer for enhancing the p…

Optoelectronic optimization of graded-bandgap thin-film AlGaAs solar cells

Faiz Ahmad, Akhlesh Lakhtakia, Peter B. Monk

An optoelectronic optimization was carried out for an AlGaAs solar cell containing (i) an n-AlGaAs absorber layer with a graded bandgap and (ii) a periodically corrugated Ag backre…

HDG and CG methods for the Indefinite Time-Harmonic Maxwell's Equations under minimal regularity

Gang Chen, Peter Monk, Yangwen Zhang

We propose to use a hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method combined with the continuous Galerkin (CG) method to approximate Maxwell's equations. We make two contributions…
