Synopsis

The goal of the workshop is to give the opportunity to interchange ideas about modeling of charge transport and their interaction with external fields in nano-opto-electronic devices.

The models developed are important for describing the influence of light on the electrical current, for example in solar cells and photodetectors, but also the influence of electrical current on the light emission, for example in light emitting diodes. The research area is of interest for theoretical understanding, experimental study as well as for efficient and optimal applicability of these systems.

We hope to bring together experimental physicists, who can give an overview of the actual studied phenomena in quantum dots and nanowires, engineers working on the practical problems about the production and optimization of devices, for example of thin film solar cells, and mathematicians and theoretical physicists, developing suitable models and their analysis for efficient numerical implementation.

The workshop shall give also an oportunity for young researchers to enter this very interesting and rapidly developing research area.
