Abstract
Numerical simulation of current-voltage (J-V) characteristics of III-V nanowire core-shell p-n junction diodes under illuminated conditions is presented with an emphasis on optimizing the nanowire design for photoconversion efficiency. Surface recombination and depletion effects are found to play a dominant role in the J-V characteristics. The impact of surface charge density, surface recombination velocity, doping concentration, and nanowire geometry are investigated. Investigation of contacting methodology indicated that solar cell efficiency is degraded with electrical contacts on the sidewalls of the nanowire due to Fermi level pinning at the metal/semiconductor interface. On the other hand, contacts on the top of nanowires with sidewall passivation provide solar cell performance close to the detailed balance efficiency limit of ∼30%. Elimination of the thin film between nanowires produces a smaller dark current and improved cell performance.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
