Quasi-thermalization of collisionless particles in quadrupole potentials
Johnathan Lau, Olga Goulko, Thomas Reimann +4
We analyze several puzzling features of a recent experiment with a noninteracting gas of atoms in a quadrupole trap. After an initial momentum kick, the system reaches a stationary…
Impact of electron-phonon scattering on optical properties of CHNHPbI hybrid perovskite material
Benoit Galvani, Daniel Suchet, Amaury Delamarre +5
We investigate numerically the impact of the electron-phonon scattering on the optical properties of a perovskite material (CH3NH3PbI3). Using non-equilibrium Green functions forma…
Voltage preservation in Intermediate Band Solar Cells
Daniel Suchet, Amaury Delamarre, Nicolas Cavassilas +4
Intermediate Band Solar Cell is an advanced concept for solar energy conversion in which two low-energy photons can promote an electron to the conduction band through a so-called i…
Beneficial impact of tunneling in nano-structured intermediate-band solar cell
Nicolas Cavassilas, Daniel Suchet, Amaury Delamarre +5
Using the non equilibrium Green functions formalism we propose a study of the electronic excitation and collection in nano-structured intermediate-band solar cell. We demonstrate t…
An electronic ratchet is required in nanostructured intermediate band solar cells
Amaury Delamarre, Daniel Suchet, Nicolas Cavassilas +3
We investigate in this letter the intrinsic properties that have limited the efficiency of nanostructured intermediate band solar cells. Those devices take advantage of intra-band…
