The active layer microstructure of organic solar cells is critical to efficiency. By studying the photovoltaic properties of organic solar cell's microstructure, it is possible to increase the efficiency of the solar cell. A graph-based…
Organic solar cells (OSCs) have received a special attention over the past years due to their solution processability, low cost, flexibility and capability of role-to-role production. The power conversion efficiency of these devices has…
Silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells with an interdigitated back-contact (IBC) exhibit high conversion efficiencies of up to 25.6%. However, due to the sophisticated back-side pattern of the doped layers and electrode structure many…
Large, spatially flexible electricity consumers such as data centers can reallocate demand across locations, influencing dispatch and prices in wholesale electricity markets. While flexible load is often assumed to improve system…
The rapid rise of electric vehicles (EVs) places unprecedented stress on both urban mobility systems and low-voltage power grids. Designing battery swapping and charging networks that are cost-efficient, grid-compatible, and sustainable is…
Exciton diffusion plays a vital role in the function of many organic semiconducting opto-electronic devices, where an accurate description requires precise control of heterojunctions. This poses a challenging problem because the…

Electron-hole pairs in organic photovoltaics dissociate efficiently despite their Coulomb-binding energy exceeding thermal energy at room temperature. The electronic states involved in charge separation couple to structured vibrational…
An excitonic insulator phase is expected to arise from the spontaneous formation of electron-hole pairs (excitons) in semiconductors where the exciton binding energy exceeds the size of the electronic band gap. At low temperature, these…
Solar modules are currently characterized at standard test conditions (STC), defined at 1000W/m2 and 25 {\deg}C. However, solar modules in actual outdoor operating conditions typically operate at lower illumination and higher temperature…
We study the dynamics of photo-induced charge carriers in realistic models of LaVO3 and YTiO3 polar heterostructures. It is shown that two types of impact ionization processes contribute to the carrier multiplication in these strongly…
