Impact of measured spectrum variation on solar photovoltaic efficiencies worldwide

Author: Kinsey, GS ; Riedel-Lyngskær, NC ; Miguel, A ; Boyd, M ; Braga, M ; Shou, C ; Cordero, RR ; Duck, BC ; Maweza, Elijah L ; Pratt, Lawrence E Date: Aug 2022 In photovoltaic power ratings, a single solar spectrum, AM1.5, is the de facto standard for record laboratory efficiencies, commercial module specifications, and performance ratios of solar power plants. More detailed energy analysis that ... Read more
Multiplexing of spatial modes in the mid-IR region

Author: Gailele, Lucas M ; Maweza, Elijah L ; Dudley, Angela L ; Ndagano, B ; Rosales-Guzman, C ; Forbes, A Date: Feb 2017 Traditional optical communication systems optimize multiplexing in polarization and wavelength both transmitted in fiber and free-space to attain high bandwidth data communication. Yet despite these technologies, we are expected to reach a ... Read more
PV module reliability scorecard - Round 1

Author: Pratt, Lawrence E ; Basappa Ayanna, Manjunath ; May, Siyasanga I ; Mkasi, Hlaluku W ; Maweza, Elijah L ; Roro, Kittessa T Date: Nov 2021 Solar PV system component reliability is key to longterm success for the PV industry, given the 25-year lifespan of PV generators. PV modules are one key component needed to deliver on the lifetime production of PV systems, as they are the ... Read more
Shaping and detecting mid-IR light with a spatial light modulator

Author: Maweza, Elijah L ; Gailele, Lucas M ; Strauss, Hencharl J ; Litvin, Ihar ; Forbes, A ; Dudley, Angela L Date: Oct 2016 We demonstrate the operation and calibration of a spatial light modulator in the mid-IR region by creating and measuring the modal content and wavefront of structured light fields at 2um for the first time.
