First-Principles Study of Thermodynamic Properties in Thin-Film Photovoltaics
abstract: This thesis focuses on the theoretical work done to determine thermodynamic properties of a chalcopyrite thin-film material for use as a photovoltaic material in a tandem device. The material of main focus here is ZnGeAs2, which was chosen for the relative abundance of constituents, favora...
