Photovoltaic nanocrystal scintillators hybridized on Si solar cells for enhanced conversion efficiency in UV
(Optical Society of American (OSA), 2008)We propose and demonstrate semiconductor nanocrystal based photovoltaic scintillators integrated on solar cells to enhance photovoltaic device parameters including spectral responsivity, open circuit voltage, short circuit ... -
Plasmonically enhanced hot electron based photovoltaic device
(Optical Society of American (OSA), 2013)Hot electron photovoltaics is emerging as a candidate for low cost and ultra thin solar cells. Plasmonic means can be utilized to significantly boost device efficiency. We separately form the tunneling metal-insulator-metal ... -
Triangular metallic gratings for large absorption enhancement in thin film Si solar cells
(Optical Society of American (OSA), 2012)We estimate high optical absorption in silicon thin film photovoltaic devices using triangular corrugations on the back metallic contact. We computationally show 21.9% overall absorptivity in a 100-nmthick silicon layer, ... -
Understanding the plasmonic properties of dewetting formed Ag nanoparticles for large area solar cell applications
(Optical Society of American (OSA), 2013)The effects of substrates with technological interest for solar cell industry are examined on the plasmonic properties of Ag nanoparticles fabricated by dewetting technique. Both surface matching (boundary element) and ...
