TL;DR
This paper introduces a Markov chain-based method to model complex luminescence, absorption, and scattering phenomena in nanophotonic systems, capable of reproducing classical laws and analyzing deviations in real-world scenarios.
Contribution
The paper presents a novel Markov chain approach for modeling nanophotonic interactions, extending traditional laws and enabling analysis of non-ideal behaviors in luminescent systems.
Findings
Method reproduces Beer-Lambert's Law and Kirchhoff's Law
Can analyze deviations from classical laws
Applied to luminescent solar concentrator (LSC)
Abstract
We develop a method based on Markov chains to model fluorescence, absorption, and scattering in nanophotonic systems. We show that the method reproduces Beer-Lambert's Law and Kirchhoff's Law, but also can be used to analyze deviations from these laws when some of their assumptions are violated. We show how to use the method to analyze a luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) based on semiconductor nanocrystals.
