Calculation of alternating current losses in stacks and coils made of second generation high temperature superconducting tapes for large scale applications

TL;DR: In this article, a homogenization method to model a stack of second generation High Temperature Superconducting tapes under AC applied transport current or magnetic field has been obtained, where the idea is to find an anisotropic bulk equivalent for the stack such that the geometrical layout of the internal alternating structures of insulating, metallic, superconducting, and substrate layers is washed out while keeping the overall electromagnetic behavior of the original stack.

Calculation of AC losses in stacks and coils made of second generation high temperature superconducting tapes for large scale applications

TL;DR: In this paper, a homogenization method to model a stack of second generation (2G) HTS tapes under AC applied transport current or magnetic field has been obtained, where the idea is to find an anisotropic bulk equivalent for the stack, such that the geometrical layout of the internal alternating structures of insulating, metallic, superconducting and substrate layers is "washed" out while keeping the overall electromagnetic behavior of the original stack.

Enhancement of optical absorption in thin-film organic solar cells through the excitation of plasmonic modes in metallic gratings

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors theoretically investigated the enhancement of optical absorption in thin-film organic solar cells in which the top transparent electrode is partially substituted by a periodic metallic grating, which can result in broadband optical absorption enhancement for TM-polarized light, due to the large field enhancement in the vicinity of the strips of the grating associated with the excitation of plasmonic modes.
