Biographies and lessons details
MATTHIAS AUF DER MAUR logo Univeristy of Rome Tor Vergata

From October 2004 to March 2008 he did a PhD at the OLAB, University of Rome "Tor Vergata", working on the development of a new multiscale simulator for electronic and optoelectronic devices. Since 2008 he is researcher with the Dept. of Electronics engineering of University of Rome "Tor Vergata".


Solar Cell Simulations

In this lecture we will review basic modeling and simulation approaches for solar cells. Optical modeling and charge transport and their coupling will be discussed. Fundamental differences between solar cell technologies and their impact on modeling will be discussed, and current research topics like multiscale modeling will be introduced.
