physics and astronomy

On the basis of theoretical considerations and experiments, human society has attempted to capture the phenomena of the world around us using universal, mathematically formulatable laws. Physics offers the basic building blocks for many scientific and engineering disciplines. It deals with the smallest particles up to the largest structures of the entire cosmos through astrophysics and astronomy. Use our collection of specialist literature to gain insight into axioms, research approaches and the universe around you.

On the order of a few nanometers, silicon shows new properties. What is special about nanocrystalline silicon is the occurrence of quantum effects. In this diploma thesis it was examined whether certain nanostructures, such as a superlattice with silicon nanocrystals, are suitable for photovoltaics or whether quantum effects could be used for energy conversion. For this purpose, nine different solar cells with quartz glass (as a non-photoactive substrate) were produced in order to make the photovoltaic effect of nanostructures accessible...
