Surface plasmon enhanced silicon solar cells
Thin-film solar cells have the potential to significantly decrease the cost of photovoltaics. Light trapping is particularly critical in such thin-film crystalline silicon solar cells in order to increase light absorption and hence cell efficiency. In this article we investigate the suitability of localized surface plasmons on silver nanoparticles for enhancing the absorbance of silicon solar c...
متن کاملSurface-Plasmon Enhanced Near-Bandgap Light Absorption in Silicon Photovoltaics
An extended Mie scattering theory is used in this paper to analyze the surface-plasmon enhanced light absorption in silicon for photovoltaic applications. The calculation results show that the optical absorption in silicon can be enhanced up to 50 times at resonance frequency by embedded spherical silver nanoparticles due to the local field enhancement by surface plasmons. The analysis reveals ...
متن کاملImproved Efficiency of Silicon Nanoholes/Gold Nanoparticles/Organic Hybrid Solar Cells via Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance.
UNLABELLED Silicon is the most widely used material for solar cells due to its abundance, non-toxicity, reliability, and mature fabrication process. In this paper, we fabricated silicon nanoholes (SiNHS)/gold nanoparticles (AuNPS)/organic hybrid solar cells and investigated their spectral and opto-electron conversion properties. SiNHS nanocomposite films were fabricated by metal-assisted electr...

متن کاملPlasmon-Enhanced Light Absorption in GaAs Nanowire Array Solar Cells
In this paper, we propose a plasmon-enhanced solar cell structure based on a GaAs nanowire array decorated with metal nanoparticles. The results show that by engineering the metallic nanoparticles, localized surface plasmon could be excited, which can concentrate the incident light and propagate the energy to nanowires. The surface plasmon can dramatically enhance the absorbance of near-bandgap...
