Optimization of Thermal Stresses During Czochralski Growth of Oxides and Halides

Crystal Research and Technology, Volume 61, Issue 1, January 2026.
A parametric optimization of the hotzone geometry for Czochralski growth is conducted to minimize thermal stress in a validated CsI furnace model. The optimal design, incorporating a heat shield, top susceptor, and modified induction coil, reduces crystal stress by a factor of 3.7.

Random Micro‐Pyramids for Transparent c‐Si Solar Cells: Enabling 16.1% Efficiency with Wavelength‐Independent 20% Transmittance

Small, Volume 22, Issue 3, 13 January 2026.
Crystalline silicon TPVs excel in transparency, efficiency, and stability, but suffer light loss in transparent regions. This study enhances light absorption by forming random micro‐pyramids on the surface through simple wet etching, boosting JSC to 33.3 mA cm−2 and 16.1% record‐high efficiency for 25 cm2 neutral‐colored TPVs (20% AVT), demonstrating a

Persistent Luminescence Analysis in the Frequency Domain

Advanced Optical Materials, Volume 13, Issue 36, December 19, 2025.
A frequency‐domain framework is introduced to characterize persistent luminescence materials. This method surpasses the limitations of time‐domain techniques and provides a new approach to understanding and optimizing the photophysical behavior of complex luminescent systems involving processes with different temporal dynamics.
