\”FDTD Solutions running on a new Intel Core i7 processor has provided up to a three-fold speed up of our simulations,\” according to Magued Boshra Nasr, Ph.D., a Senior Research Scientist at Boston-based solar cell start-up Lightwave Power, Inc. \”Lightwave Power is focused on commercializing breakthrough improvements to current solar cells in the form of inexpensive nano-patterned thin films that can improve their efficiency. FDTD Solutions allows us to quantify that improvement, and quickly generate results that agree with our experimental measurements.\” The new parameterization capabilities of FDTD Solutions Release 6.5 will help researchers better understand how key parameters impact design performance. \”In our work designing plasmonic light trapping layers for silicon solar cells, we have recently shown that a...
