Quantum photocell: using quantum coherence to reduce radiative recombination and increase efficiency.
The fundamental limit to photovoltaic efficiency is widely thought to be radiative recombination which balances radiative absorption. We here show that it is possible to break detailed balance via quantum coherence, as in the case of lasing without inversion and the photo-Carnot quantum heat engine. This yields, in principle, a quantum limit to photovoltaic operation which can exceed the classi...
متن کاملRadiative Efficiency of Collisionless Accretion
Radiative efficiency, η ≡ L/Ṁc, of a slowly accreting black hole is estimated using a two-temperature model of accretion. The radiative efficiency depends on the magnetic field strength near the Schwarzschild radius. For weak magnetic fields, β ≡ B/8πp ∼< 10 , the low efficiency η ∼ 10 assumed in some theoretical models is achieved. For β > 10, a significant fraction of viscous heat is dissipat...
متن کاملSurface plasmon coupling dynamics in InGaN/GaN quantum-well structures and radiative efficiency improvement
Surface plasmonics from metal nanoparticles have been demonstrated as an effective way of improving the performance of low-efficiency light emitters. However, reducing the inherent losses of the metal nanoparticles remains a challenge. Here we study the enhancement properties by Ag nanoparticles for InGaN/GaN quantum-well structures. By using a thin SiN dielectric layer between Ag and GaN we ma...
متن کاملEnhanced radiative emission rate and quantum efficiency in coupled silicon nanocrystal-nanostructured gold emitters.
We report local-field-enhanced light emission from silicon nanocrystals close to a film of nanoporous gold. We resolve photoluminescence as the gold-Si nanocrystal separation distance is varied between 0 and 20 nm and observe a fourfold luminescence intensity enhancement concomitant with increases in the coupled silicon nanocrystal/nanoporous gold absorbance cross section and radiative decay ra...
متن کاملEnhanced radiative transition in SinGem nanoclusters
Using an ab initio molecular-dynamics scheme ~the ‘‘fireball’’ scheme!, we determined the equilibrium structure of intermediate-size SinGem (n1m571) nanoclusters with and without hydrogen passivation on the surface. Due to the strong surface distortion, defect states are found to permeate the energy gap of SinGem clusters. However, the defect states are removed by adding H atoms on the surface ...
