Unclaimed Principle — open for contribution

This Principle is declared in the catalog but has no reference solver, no pinned dataset, and is not registered on-chain. There is no reward pool. Submitting a cert against this Principle today will record the cert for reproducibility but pay zero PWM.

To claim it as a Bounty #7 contribution: open a PR adding (1) a reference solver, (2) ≥1 dataset pinned to IPFS, (3) updates to the L3 manifest with dataset CIDs. After verifier-agent triple-review, the founders' 3-of-5 multisig signs PWMRegistry.register() and the Principle becomes mineable.

Forward model E

Photovoltaic cell as drift-diffusion device with photogeneration G(x,lambda); one-diode or two-diode compact model with parasitic R_s, R_sh; efficiency bounded by Shockley-Queisser.

Well-posedness W

Existence:
true
Uniqueness:
true
Stability:
conditional
κ:
150

Well-posed for typical parameter ranges; ideality/shunt trade-off creates mild non-uniqueness at low bias.

Solvability C

Solver class:
One-diode LM fit; full-physics TCAD for absorbed layer analysis
Convergence rate q:
2
Complexity:
O(N_bias)
