Simulation of Nanoscale High-Efficiency Thermionic Converters
LBNL provided development and feedback for Warp's mesh refinement solver and cutcell capabilities, authoring adjusted implementations for use with the dielectric solver in 3D. This work has been documented in a separate branch of the RadiaSoft Warp fork, and is currently under review. LBNL has also provided feedback on the new tests developed to study dielectric charging and shaped emitters. The LBNL contributions enabled the Radiasoft team to progress steadily and meet the goal of the projects for the duration of the collaboration. Results have been reported in one refereed paper, three proceeding papers, four oral and six poster presentions.
