Extensive literature and publications on intermediate band solar cells (IBSCs) are reviewed.
A detailed discussion is given on the thermodynamics of solar energy conversion in IBSCs …

We present a comprehensive and up-to-date compilation of band parameters for all of the
nitrogen-containing III–V semiconductors that have been investigated to date. The two main …

At present, III–V compound semiconductors provide the materials basis for a number of well-
established commercial technologies, as well as new cutting-edge classes of electronic and …

Semiconductor electronics is commonplace in every household. Semiconductor devices
have enabled economically reasonable fiber-based optical communication, optical storage …

The supercell approach to defects and alloys has circumvented the limitations of those
methods that insist on using artificially high symmetry, yet this step usually comes at the cost …

A new class of planar optics has emerged using subwavelength gratings with a large
refractive index contrast, herein referred to as high-contrast gratings (HCGs). This seemingly …

Halide perovskite solar cells are a recent ground-breaking development achieving power
conversion efficiencies exceeding 18%. This has become possible owing to the remarkable …

The mid-infrared (mid-IR) is a wavelength range with a variety of technologically vital
applications in molecular sensing, security and defense, energy conservation, and …

Nanocrystalline porous nitrogen doped titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin films were prepared by
DC magnetron sputtering. Films were deposited in a plasma of argon, oxygen, and nitrogen …

We show that the band gap bowing trends observed in III-V alloys containing dilute
concentrations of Sb or Bi can be explained within the framework of the valence-band …
