Improving the overall characteristics of semitransparent solar cells (STSCs) is a very hard goal, not only because absorption and transmission light through device are two competitive processes but also power conversion efficiency (PCE) decreases with angle incidence sunlight rays due to Fresnel law limits. Here, unprecedented single-junction perovskite STSCs have been fabricated thanks rational management transverse magnetic electric reflection modes dielectric/metal/dielectric triple layer...

By using a weak measurement technique, we investigated the interplay between angular and lateral Goos-Hänchen shift of focused He-Ne laser beam for incidence near critical angle. We verified that this dramatically affects composite propagated beam. The experimental results confirm theoretical predictions recently appeared in literature.

The determinant for complex matrices cannot be extended to quaternionic matrices. Instead, the Study and closely related q-determinant are widely used. We show that can characterized as unique functional which extends absolute value of discuss its spectral linear algebraic aspects.

We discuss the Schrodinger equation in presence of quaternionic potentials. The study is performed analytically as long it proves possible, when not, we resort to numerical calculations. results obtained could be useful investigate an underlying quantum dynamics particle physics. Experimental tests and proposals observe effects by neutron interferometry are briefly reviewed.

The Artmann formula provides an accurate determination of the Goos-Haenchen lateral displacement in terms light wavelength, refractive index and incidence angle. In total reflection region, this is widely used literature confirmed by experiments. Nevertheless, for at critical angle, it tends to infinity numerical calculations are needed reproduce experimental data. paper, we overcome divergence problem angle find, Gaussian beams, a closed modified Bessel functions first kind. excellent...

For incidence in the critical region, propagation of gaussian lasers through triangular dielectric blocks is characterized by joint action angular deviations and lateral displacements. This mixed effect, known as composite Goos-Haenchen shift, produces a displacement dependent on axial coordinate, recently confirmed weak measurement experiment. We discuss under which conditions this displacement, only exists for presents an oscillatory behavior. oscillation phenomenon shows peculiar behavior...

We discuss the (right) eigenvalue equation for $\mathbb{H}$, $\mathbb{C}$ and $\mathbb{R}$ linear quaternionic operators. The possibility to introduce an isomorphism between these operators real/complex matrices allows translate problem into {\em equivalent} real or complex counterpart. Interesting applications are found in solving differential equations within formulations of quantum mechanics.

The stationary phase method is applied to diffusion by a potential barrier for an incoming wave packet with energies greater than the height of barrier. It observed that direct application leads paradoxical results. correct solution, confirmed numerical calculations creation multiple peaks as consequence reflections. Lessons concerning use are drawn.

We study the solutions for a one-dimensional electrostatic potential in Dirac equation when incoming wave packet exhibits Klein paradox (pair production). With barrier we demonstrate existence of multiple reflections (and transmissions). The antiparticle which are necessarily localized within region create new pairs with each reflection at walls. Consequently encounter because successive outgoing amplitudes grow geometrically.

We report about recent results on Dirac wave packets in the treatment of neutrino flavor oscillation where initial localization a spinor state implies an interference between positive and negative energy components mass-eigenstate packets. A satisfactory description fermionic particles requires use equation as evolution for mass-eigenstates. In this context, new conversion formula can be obtained when effects chiral are taken into account. Our study leads to conclusion that nature particles,...

We show in which conditions optical gaussian beams, propagating throughout an homogeneous dielectric right angle prism, present asymmetric Goos-H\"anchen (GH) effect. This behavior is seen for incidence at critical angles and happens the propagation direction of outgoing beam. The GH effect can be also as amplification standard shift. Due to fact that it only depends on ratio between wavelength minimal waist size incoming beam, used determine one these parameters. Multiple peaks interference...

The mean-field Kuramoto model for synchronization of phase oscillators with an asymmetric bimodal frequency distribution is analyzed. Breaking the reflection symmetry facilitates oscillator to rotating wave phases. Numerical simulations support results based on bifurcation theory and high-frequency calculations. In latter case, order parameter a linear superposition parameters corresponding counterrotating

We study the bound-state solutions of vanishing angular momentum in a quaternionic spherical square-well potential finite depth. As standard quantum mechanics, such occur for discrete values energy. At first glance, it seems that continuity conditions impose very restrictive constraint on energy eigenvalues and, consequently, no bound states were expected below pure potential. Nevertheless, careful analysis shows potentials do not remove states. It is also interesting to compare these new...

The purpose of this paper is to show how the problem finding zeros ofunilateral n-order quaternionic polynomials can be solved by determining eigenvectors corresponding companion matrix. This approach, probably superfluous in case quadratic equations for which a closed formula given, becomes truly useful (unilateral) polynomials. To understand strength method, it compared with Niven algorithm and shown where (full) matrix approach improves previous methods based on use algorithm. For...

In order to obtain a consistent formulation of octonionic quantum mechanics (OQM), we introduce left-right barred operators. Such operators enable us find the translation rules between numbers and 8×8 real matrices (a is also given for 4×4 complex matrices). We develop an relativistic free wave equation, linear in derivatives. Even if functions are only one-component show that four independent solutions, corresponding those Dirac exist.
