量子力学虚拟实验的MATLAB演示

量子力学是一门较抽象的科学.为了更直观、形象地展示量子力学中的一些物理原理和实验现象,本文利用MAT-LAB软件搭建了一个量子力学的虚拟演示平台,可以生动地演示电子双缝衍射、量子隧穿效应、氢原子电子云和斯塔克效应等现象.通过相关物理参数的输入以及物理现象的演示,可以使学生在量子力学的学习中获得更直观的教学感受.     

Enhanced optical absorption by Ag nanoparticles in a thin film Si solar cell

Thin film solar cells have the potential to significantly reduce the cost of photovoltaics. Light trapping is crucial to such a thin film silicon solar cell because of a low absorption coefficient due to its indirect band gap. In this paper, we investigate the suitability of surface plasmon resonance Ag nanoparticles for enhancing optical absorption in the thin film solar cell. For evaluating the transmittance capability of Ag nanoparticles and the conventional antireflection film, an enhanced transmittance factor is introduced. We find that under the solar spectrum AM1.5, the transmittance of Ag nanoparticles with radius over 160 nm is equivalent to that of conventional textured antireflection film, and its effect is better than that of the planar antireflection film. The influence of the surrounding medium is also discussed.
