Abstract: The currently ubiquitous light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have revolutionized the lighting industry. Contrary to common belief, however, LEDs are much more than just simple electricity-to-light converters. They are solid-state thermodynamic machines, theoretically capable of continuous and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1361-6641/aab6c3
Abstract: Current crowding close to electrical contacts is a common challenge in all optoelectronic devices containing thin current spreading layers (CSLs). We analyze the effects of current spreading on the operation of the so-called double diode… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/ted.2019.2910219
Abstract: Recent advances in the photoluminescent cooling of doped glasses provoke the question of whether similar progress is possible in electroluminescent cooling (ELC), and if so, what are the conditions for observing it at high powers.… read more here.
