Coupled 2D quantum dot films for next generation solar cells: electronic structure and anomalous light absorption behaviour

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: (1), questioning the wisdom of the efforts of achieving 3D super-solids if the aim is to improve optical absorption. Additionally, we propose a simplified model that accurately describes the intermediate band structure, useful for device simulations.
