Abstract: Abstract Theoretical models and frameworks are developed to investigate the effects of carrier heating on conventional and hot-carrier solar cells. They incorporate intraband carrier energy relaxation into the Shockley-Queisser model for conventional solar cells and… read more here.

Abstract: In conventional solar cells, photogenerated carriers lose part of their energy before they can be extracted to make electricity. The aim of hot-carrier solar cells is to extract the carriers before this energy loss, thereby… read more here.
