How to make research software citable ?

Vincent MAGNIN — 2017-01-27T08:29:19Z

Developing research soft is a hard task that often lacks recognition in the academic world. But things are slowly changing.
An interesting paper on that subject : Laura Soito, Lorraine J Hwang, "Citations for Software : Providing Identification, Access and Recognition for Research Software", International Journal of Digital Curation, Vol 11, No 2 (2016), doi:10.2218/ijdc.v11i2.390. http://www.ijdc.net/index.php/ijdc/article/view/11.2.48/451
The two main solutions are : 1) writing a (...)

Ray Tracing Simulations of Reflections on Textured Solar Cells

Vincent MAGNIN — 2015-02-02T15:04:00Z

My research activities since the beginning of 2012 concern the modelling of the reflections on pyramidal textures for silicon solar cells. I have developed a 3D ray tracing program which can compute the reflectivity on a textured surface. What it can do
any azimuth angle,
any altitude angle,
any wavelength in the [0.28 ; 1.0] µm range,
any light polarisation (including unpolarised light).

Our modelling and optimisation tools

Vincent MAGNIN — 2015-02-02T14:43:00Z

For 20 years, we have developed in Fortran electrical and optical models and optimization methods useful in optoelectronics. They have been tested and validated in numerous Ph.D. thesis or industrial contracts (see J. HARARI and V. MAGNIN papers), on various devices (photodiodes, phototransistors, waveguides, optoelectronic switches, etc.) Electrical models
Drift Diffusion model : 1D.
Energy model : 1D.
Poisson's equation : 2D.
Auston model for photoswitches. Optical models
Modal (...)
