• Critical issues in the design of polycrystalline, thin‐film tandem solar cells (2003, background): “In the latter case, several mechanisms can cause the loss of photons with energies less than Eg1, including free-carrier absorption and nonradiative subbandgap absorption via impurities or defects.(21) In general, these are dependent on the energies of the various species, but we shall neglect these”
• What Makes a Good Solar Cell? (2018, methodology): “Bozyigit et al. also raise a currently unresolved problem, namely, the combination of the equations for multiphonon recombination as derived by Ridley,[115,116] Markvart,[114,120] and others with the concept of the Meyer–Neldel rule[149] that considers the effect of entropy on increasing transitions”
• Quantization of multiparticle auger rates in semiconductor quantum dots (2000, background): “The Auger process also occurs in bulk semiconductors (2), in which the emitted (reexcited) particle can be either an electron or a hole.”
• Multiple exciton generation in semiconductor nanocrystals: Toward efficient solar energy conversion (2008, unknown): “while satisfying momentum and energy conservation is given by ∆Ee = (2me +m ∗ h)Eg/(m ∗ e +m ∗ h) [41].”
• High-efficiency carrier multiplication through direct photogeneration of multi-excitons via virtual single-exciton states (2005, result): “In the impact ionization model, CM is the process that is inverse with respect to Auger recombination; therefore, it should be characterized by a time constant that is comparable to or even longer than that of the Auger deca”
