In this article, we demonstrate the design and simulation of a highly-efficient n-CdS/p-CIGS/p+-CGS dual heterojunction solar cell. The simulation was performed using SCAPS-1D software with reported experimental physical parameters. The…
Among silicon-based solar cells, heterojunction cells hold the world efficiency record. However, their market acceptance is hindered by an initial 0.5\% per year degradation of their open circuit voltage which doubles the overall cell…
A thermodynamically consistent phase-field model is introduced for simulating multicellular deformation, and aggregation under flow conditions. In particular, a Lennard-Jones type potential is proposed under the phase-field framework for…
