  1. 6. Processing techniques of perovskite solar cells : Properties depending on material and manufacturing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Fysikalisk kemi

    Author : Andréa Nordmark; Simon Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This project investigates how different types of perovskite solar cells, differentiated by choice of materials and processing techniques, compares to each other regarding performance and characterization. The purpose of the project is to further develop perovskite solar cells and to improve the method of manufacturing for better performance. READ MORE

  3. 7. Mathematical modeling and analysis of hot carrier solar cells

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Benjamin van Dijk; [2023]
    Keywords : solar cell; nanowires; hot carrier; nanowire; analysis; mathematical model; trends; fermi function; reservoirs; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the analysis of a mathematical model of a nanowire based hot carrier solar cell. The relevance of the topic comes from the energy crisis society is facing today. Firstly, we discuss the basic principle of hot carrier solar cells and discuss several energy loss factors. READ MORE

  4. 8. Agrivoltaic Implementation in Greenhouses : A Techno-Economic Analysis of Agrivoltaic Installations for Greenhouses in Sweden

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

  5. 9. Investigating the use of Semiconductor Nanowires for Neural Networks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Alfredo Serafini; [2022]
    Keywords : FDTD method and simulation; optical broadcasting neural network; optical communication of nanowires; sub-wavelength absorption.; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this work, we intend to employ nanowires for the realisation of an artificial neuron which can be used to design a neural network that will guide the new generation of non-von Neumann architectures such as Neuromorphic Computing. Possible applications are strongly related to Neuromorphic architectures and artificial intelligence, such as high-performance computers, robotics hardware and autonomous drones. READ MORE

  6. 10. Solar Energy Harvesting for Outdoor Applications

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Jonatan Andersson; Kristoffer Kjaerran; [2022]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The use of solar cells as a solution for different energy harvesting applications has seen a significant growth during the last few years. With recent advances in the power conversion efficiency and manufacturability of organic photovoltaic cells these systems can be made even cheaper and more available for consumers, opening up new ways for solar technology to be implemented into products.
