Institut National Polytechnique Félix Houphouët – Boigny | Côte D’Ivoire

Mr. Mondjou Georges Constant Beh is a physics researcher specializing in photovoltaic solar energy, thin-film materials, and renewable-energy modeling, with a strong interdisciplinary background spanning materials science, semiconductor physics, and environmental sustainability. His research focuses on the synthesis, simulation, and characterization of low-cost, eco-friendly semiconductor materials for next-generation thin-film solar cells, with particular emphasis on kesterite-based absorbers such as CZTS and CdS. He integrates experimental approaches such as spray pyrolysis, electrodeposition, and optical/electrical materials characterization with advanced computational tools including SCAPS-1D, Taguchi optimization, and DFT-based Quantum Espresso simulations. His work contributes to improving the structural, optical, and electronic properties of thin-film layers, reducing defect densities, enhancing energy-conversion efficiency, and supporting large-scale photovoltaic deployment. He has presented his findings at multiple international conferences across Africa and the MENA region, addressing themes such as nonlinear optical behavior, defect-engineering strategies, semiconductor interface optimization, and environmental benefits of sustainable solar materials. His contributions also extend to climate action, environmental awareness, and scientific engagement within the renewable-energy community. According to Google Scholar, his research output includes peer-reviewed publications and conference proceedings with 5 citations, an h-index of 1, and 1 i10-index document, reflecting growing visibility in the fields of photovoltaic materials and renewable-energy engineering. His scholarly work demonstrates a commitment to advancing low-cost solar technologies that align with energy-transition objectives and environmentally responsible innovation.
