We use the Nonequilibrium Green's Function (NEGF) method to perform real-time simulations of the ultrafast electron dynamics of photoexcited donor-C60 complexes modeled by a Pariser-Parr-Pople Hamiltonian. The NEGF results are compared to…
We present an investigation of the microscopic interplay between excitons and charge carriers by means of combined photoluminescence (PL) and charge carrier transport measurements on organic thin film transistors (OTFT). For this purpose,…
The effect of carrier multiplication (CM) in semiconductor nanocrystals is systematically treated by employing an exciton scattering approach. Using projection operators, we reduce the Coulomb coupled multi-exciton dynamics to scattering…
Cross-layer resource allocation over mobile edge computing (MEC)-aided cell-free networks can sufficiently exploit the transmitting and computing resources to promote the data rate. However, the technical bottlenecks of traditional methods…
Photosynthetic antenna complexes achieve high quantum efficiency through exciton transport in coupled pigment networks. Conventional Frenkel-exciton models treat each chromophore as a structureless site and neglect internal electronic…
The power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of organic solar cells (OSCs) using non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) have now reached 18%. However, this is still lower than inorganic solar cells, for which PCEs >20% are commonplace. A key reason is…
The energetic landscape at the interface between electron donating and accepting molecular materials favors efficient conversion of intermolecular charge-transfer states (CTS) into free charge carriers in high-performance organic solar…
Electron beam induced current (EBIC) is a powerful characterization technique which offers the high spatial resolution needed to study polycrystalline solar cells. Ideally, an EBIC measurement reflects the spatially resolved quantum…
First-order perturbation theory and many-body Green function analysis are used to quantify the influence of size, surface reconstruction and surface treatment on exciton transport between small silicon quantum dots. Competing radiative…
We derive exciton-spin interactions from a microscopic correlated model that captures important aspects of the physics of charge-transfer (CT) insulators to address magnetism associated with exciton creation. We present a minimal model…
Hot-carrier solar cells are envisioned to utilize energy filtering to extract power from photogenerated electron-hole pairs before they thermalize with the lattice, and thus potentially offer higher power conversion efficiency compared to…
There is strong interest in designing and realizing optically-active semiconductor nanostructures of greater complexity for applications in fields ranging from biomedical engineering to quantum computing. While these increasingly complex…
The exciton binding energy, the energy required to dissociate an excited electron-hole pair into free charge carriers, is one of the key factors to the optoelectronic performance of organic materials. However, it remains unclear whether…
The effectiveness of molecular-based light harvesting relies on transport of optical excitations, excitons, to charg-transfer sites. Measuring exciton migration has, however, been challenging because of the mismatch between nanoscale…
Since the seminal work on MoS2 monolayers, photoexcitation in atomically-thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) has been assumed to result in excitons with large binding energies (~ 200-600 meV). Because the exciton binding energies…
Excitons diffusing to a charge-separating interface is a necessary step to convert energy into current in next-generation photovoltaics. In this report, made possible by a new ultrafast spectrometer design, we compare exciton dynamics…
This paper develops a power management scheme that jointly optimizes the real power consumption of programmable loads and reactive power outputs of photovoltaic (PV) inverters in distribution networks. The premise is to determine the…
Bulk heterojunction (BHJ) organic solar cells have made remarkable inroads towards 20% efficiency, yet nonradiative recombination losses ({\Delta}Vnr) remain high compared to silicon and perovskite photovoltaics. Interfaces buried within…
A general problem arising in computer simulations is the number of material and device parameters, which have to be determined by dedicated experiments and simulation-based parameter extraction. In this study we analyze measurements of the…
Singlet fission, a spin-allowed energy transfer process generating two triplet excitons from one singlet exciton, has the potential to dramatically increase the efficiency of organic solar cells. However, the dynamical mechanism of this…
