Modeling and Applications of Thermoelectric Generators
… harvested power. Bismuth-telluride is used as semiconductors materials of the TEG, which is the most commonly used material by industry. Experiments on three TEG modules were performed to validate the numerical model. A comparison with predicted levels of harvested energy based on the TEG …

Coating and Doping of Ge QDs
… key technical challenges for the use of these materials in a number of optoelectronic applications, particularly solar applications. Unlike doping of traditional bulk semiconductors materials, the location of the doping element can be either within the crystal lattice (c-doping), on the surface …

Time-dependent adjoint-based optimization of photonic crystals and metamaterials using a stabilized finite element method
… The motivation for optimizing broadband metamaterials is for their use as dielectric mirrors for applications where high power reflection is required. In this optimization, Hicks-Henne functions are utilized for shape parameterization and linear elasticity used once again for mesh adaptation. …

Adhesion/Diffusion Barrier Layers for Copper Integration: Carbon-Silicon Polymer Films and Tantalum Substrates
… copper (Cu) with low-dielectric-constant (low-k) materials as a critical goal for future interconnect architectures. A fundamental understanding of the chemical interaction of Cu with various substrates, including diffusion barriers and adhesion promoters, is essential to achieve this goal. The …
