In this work, we present an experimental study of a Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS)-based solar cell (SC), irradiated with protons of energy 80 and 180 keV and with fuences of 1012 , 1013 , and 1014 cm−2 , as well as a strategy to recover the induced damage. The possible modifcations of the structural, electrical, and optical properties, induced by the proton irradiation, were investigated. Although the irradiation did not...
This article describes two techniques for operating a semiconductor laser in a pulsed regime, namely the mode locking and injection locking mechanisms. For each one we present the operational principle, the theory and simulation results. We also describe the self Q-switching mechanism in multi-sections DFB lasers.; Este artigo descreve duas técnicas de operar um laser de semicondutor em regime pulsado, nom...
This article reports a modelling and experimental work on all-optical clock extraction for high bit-rate systems using self-pulsation mechanisms in semiconductor lasers at 1300 nm. External cavity DFB semiconductor lasers have been used, of both bulk and multiple quantum-well (MQW) types.; Este artigo descreve um trabalho de modelização e realização prática de um sistema de extracção de relógio totalm...
