• Added plot generation for LDOS
• Corrected an error in the parameters for InP
• Implemented parametric tunnel junction model
• Added support for external tunnel junction IV characteristics
• Improved external optics option
• Added optical properties for GaAsP, GaInP and AlInP, although with just 2 or three-point interpolation
• Started a simple tutorial
• Polished the PDD solver and separated the preparation of the solar cell from the optical solvers
• Material system updated with new properties, and other minor changes
• Radiative recombination coefficient for PDD is calculated from the absorption coefficient
• Improvements in the tunnel junction and the plotting of wavefunctions
• The TMM solver has been vectorized and built directly into Solcore.
