Energy level control: toward an efficient hot electron transport
Highly efficient hot electron transport represents one of the most important properties required for applications in photovoltaic devices. Whereas the fabrication of efficient hot electron capture and lost-cost devices remains a technological challenge, regulating the energy level of acceptor-donor system through the incorporation of foreign ions using the solution-processed technique is one of...
متن کاملToward an energy efficient PKC-based key management system for wireless sensor networks
Due to wireless nature and hostile environment, providing of security is a critical and vital task in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). It is known that key management is an integral part of a secure network. Unfortunately, in most of the previous methods, security is compromised in favor of reducing energy consumption. Consequently, they lack perfect resilience and are not fit for applications ...
متن کاملEfficient optical extraction of hot-carrier energy.
Light-induced generation of free charge carriers in semiconductors constitutes the physical basis of photodetection and photovoltaics. To maximize its efficiency, the energy of the photons must be entirely used for this purpose. This is highly challenging owing to the ultrafast thermalization of 'hot' carriers, which are created by absorption of high-energy photons. Thermalization leads to heat...
متن کاملHot-electron-transfer enhancement for the efficient energy conversion of visible light.
Great strides have been made in enhancing solar energy conversion by utilizing plasmonic nanostructures in semiconductors. However, current generation with plasmonic nanostructures is still somewhat inefficient owing to the ultrafast decay of plasmon-induced hot electrons. It is now shown that the ultrafast decay of hot electrons across Au nanoparticles can be significantly reduced by strong co...
متن کاملEnergy-efficient system-level design
The complexity of current and future integrated systems requires a paradigm shift towards component-based design techno logies that enable the integration of large computational cores, memory hierarchies and communication channel as well as system and application software onto a single chip. Moving from a set of case studies, we give an overview of energy-efficient systemlevel design, emphasizi...
