Single diode model is simple and easy to implement, whereas double diode model has better accuracy which acquiesces for more precise forecast of PV systems performance. Exploration is done on the basis of simulation results and MATLAB tool is used to serve this purpose. Simulations are performed by varying distinct model parameters such as solar irradiance, temperature, value of parasitic resistances, ideality factor of diode and number of series and parallel connected solar cells used to assemble PV array. Conspicuous demonstration is executed to analyze effects of these specifications on the efficiency curve and power vs. voltage output characteristics of PV cell for specified models.展开更多

At the same time, the performance improvement of the BOLEDs having a capping layer inserted between the semitransparent anode and the glass substrate is studied. The optimized microcavity BOLED shows a current efficiency （5.49cd/A） enhancement of 10% compared with a conventional BOLED based on ITO （5.0cd/A）. Slight color variation is observed in 120° forward viewing angle with 5Onto BCP as the capping layer. Strong dependence of efficiency on A1 anode thickness and the thickness and refractor index of the capping layer is explained. The results indicate that the BOLEDs with the double-aluminum electrode have potential practical applications.展开更多

The white PHOLEDs use FIrpic dopant for blue EML （B- EML）, and Ir（ppy）3：Ir（piq）3 dopants for green：red EML （GR-EML） with N,N＇-dicarbazolyl-3, 5-benzene （mCP） as host material. Thicknesses of B-EML and GR-EML are adjusted to form a narrow recombination zone at two EML＇s interface and charge trapping happens in EML according to wide highest occupied molecular orbital and/or lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy band gap of mCP and smaller energy band gap of dopants. The total thickness of both EMLs is fixed at 30 nm in the device structure of ITO （150 nm）/MoO3 （2 nm）/N,N＇-diphenyl-N,N＇-bis（1-naphthyl-phenyl）-（1,1″-biphenyl）-4, 4＇-diamine （70 nm）/ meP：Firpic-8.0% （12 nm）/mCP：Ir（ppy）3-3.0%：Ir（piq）3-1.5% （18 nm）/2″,2＇,2＂＇-（1,3,5-benzinetriyl）-tris（1- phenyl-l-H-benzimidazole） （30 nm）/8-hydroxyquinolinolato-lithium （2 nm）/A1 （120 nm）. White PHOLED shows 18.25 cd/A of luminous efficiency and white color coordinates of （0.358 and 0.378） at 5000 cd/m2 and color stability with slight CIExy change of （0.028 and 0.002） as increasing luminance from 1000 to 5000 cd/m^2.展开更多

This newly developed model, for the first time, has been used to analyze the large-signal characteristics of hexagonal SiC-based double-drift IMPATT diode. Considering the fabrication feasibility, the authors have studied the large-signal characteristics of Si/SiC-based hetero-structure devices. Under small-voltage modulation （~ 2%, i.e. small-signal conditions） results are in good agreement with calculations done using a linearised small-signal model. The large-signal values of the diode＇s negative conductance （5 × 106 S/m2）, susceptance （10.4 × 107 S/m2）, average breakdown voltage （207.6 V）, and power generating efficiency （15%, RF power： 25.0 W at 94 GHz） are obtained as a function of oscillation amplitude （50% of DC breakdown voltage） for a fixed average current density. The large-signal calculations exhibit power and efficiency saturation for large-signal （〉 50%） voltage modulation and thereafter decrease gradually with further increasing voltage-modulation. This generalized large-signal formulation is applicable for all types of IMPATT structures with distributed and narrow avalanche zones. The simulator is made more realistic by incorporating the space-charge effects, realistic field and temperature dependent material parameters in Si and SiC. The electric field snap-shots and the large-signal impedance and admittance of the diode with current excitation are expressed in closed loop form. This study will act as a guide for researchers to fabricate a high-power Si/SiC-based IMPATT for possible application in high-power MM-wave communication systems.展开更多

The results are further compared with corresponding Si and Ge homo-junction devices. The study shows high values of device efficiency, such as 23%, 22% and 21.5%, for n-Ge/p-Si IMPATTs at the Ka, V and W bands, respectively. The peak device negative con- ductances for n-Si/p-Ge and n-Ge/p-Si hetero-junction devices found to be 50.7× 10^6 S/m^2 and 71.3× 106 S/m^2, which are -3-4 times better than their Si and Ge counterparts at the V-band. The computed values of RF powerdensity for n-Ge/p-Si hetero-junction IMPATTs are 1.0 ×10^9, 1.1 × 10^9 and 1.4× 10^9 W/m^2, respectively, for Ka-, V- and W-band operation, which can be observed to be the highest when compared with Si, Ge and n-Si/p-Ge devices. Both of the hetero-junctions, especially the n-Ge/p-Si hetero-junction diode, can thus become a superior RF-power generator over a wide range of frequencies. The present study will help the device engineers to choose a suitable material pair for the development of high-power MM-wave IMPATT for applications in the civil and defense-related arena.展开更多
