Photoelectrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (PEC CO2RR) is a promising technology
which offers the possibility of a carbon‐neutral solar fuel production via artificial …

Thin, flexible, and efficient silicon solar cells would revolutionize the photovoltaic market and
open up new opportunities for PV integration. However, as an indirect semiconductor, silicon …

We analyze the uncertainty of the coefficient of band-to-band absorption of crystalline
silicon. For this purpose, we determine the absorption coefficient at room temperature (295 …

This paper reviews the present knowledge of charge transport properties in silicon, with
special emphasis on their application in the design of solid-state devices. Therefore, most …

We began planning and writing this book in the late 1970s at the suggestion of Manuel
Cardona and Helmut Lotsch. We also received considerable en couragement and …

Over one hundred independent photoluminescence transitions are now known in crystalline
silicon. This paper begins by outlining those properties of silicon which are relevant to …

The tight-binding method of modelling materials lies between the very accurate, very
expensive, ab initio methods and the fast but limited empirical methods. When compared …

The purpose of this book was to provide a detailed understanding of the basic
semiconductor physics such as properties of electronic, optical, transport, and quantum …

A systematic theoretical study of the electronic properties of pseudomorphic (100)-strained
Si 1− x Ge x alloys grown on unstrained Si 1− y Ge y substrates is presented. Based on …

The tunneling current is measured as a function of voltage, lateral position, and vertical
separation between a tungsten probe tip and a Si (111) 2× 1 surface. A rich spectrum is …
