  2. Modeling of P-N Junction Devices using Various Materials for Photovoltaic Applications Under Different Operating Environments

    06 Jul 2023 | | Contributor(s):: Sayan Roy

    Photovoltaic devices are typically two-, three- or multi-layer junction devices which can generate carriers on exposure to photon radiation. There are several essential device-specific factors and parameters which are required for accurate modeling and simulation of such devices. In this talk,...

  3. Introduction to Computational Chemistry Using the NUITNS Simulation Toolkit in nanoHUB

    06 Oct 2022 | | Contributor(s):: Tomekia Simeon

    In this seminar, Dr. Tomekia Simeon will describe how she has successfully used computational chemistry assignments in her undergraduate chemistry courses at Dillard University using nanoHUB’s free online simulation resources.

  4. Deposition 2: Sputtering and Nucleation of the Deposited Material

    26 Feb 2022 | | Contributor(s):: Atilla Ozgur Cakmak, NACK Network, Rich Hill

    Sputtering is a fundamental Physical Vapor Deposition method that utilizes plasma. This session will focus on igniting a plasma for the benefit of a thin film deposition. Both DC and RF plasma based sputtering methods will be discussed. The physics of plasma will be elucidated by emphasizing the...

  5. Fusing Light With Heat: Polaritons for Nanoscale Thermal Transport & Sensing

    07 Oct 2021 | | Contributor(s):: Thomas Beechem

    Light exhibits a wave nature.  Phonons do too.  Within the infrared portion of the spectrum, these differing “waves” can interact to form hybrid energy carriers called polaritons.  Polaritons, in turn, provide fundamental advantages for optical functionality and...

  6. Machine Learning Framework for Impurity Level Prediction in Semiconductors

    15 Dec 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Arun Kumar Mannodi Kanakkithodi
