Journal ArticleDOI

The role of random nanostructures for the omnidirectional anti-reflection properties of the glasswing butterfly

TL;DR: This work simulates the optical properties with the effective medium theory and transfer matrix method and shows that the random height distribution of pillars significantly reduces the reflection not only for normal incidence but also for high view angles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioinspired phase-separated disordered nanostructures for thin photovoltaic absorbers

TL;DR: Inspired by black butterfly scales, self-assembled phase-separated nanostructures form efficient photovoltaic absorbers of disordered nanoholes, which combine efficient light in-coupling and light-trapping properties together with a high angular robustness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combined front and back diffraction gratings for broad band light trapping in thin film solar cell

TL;DR: This paper presents the integration of combined front and back 1D and 2D diffraction gratings with different periods, within thin film photovoltaic solar cells based on crystalline silicon layers, designed considering both the need for incident light absorption enhancement and the technological feasibility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two-dimensional photonic crystal for absorption enhancement in hydrogenated amorphous silicon thin film solar cells

TL;DR: In this paper, a planar planar photonic crystal (PPC) was used for a photovoltaic solar cell design based on a 100 nm thick absorbing layer made of hydrogenated amorphous silicon and patterned as a two-dimensional planar PPC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Absorbing one-dimensional planar photonic crystal for amorphous silicon solar cell

TL;DR: This work reports on the absorption of a 100nm thick hydrogenated amorphous silicon layer patterned as a planar photonic crystal (PPC), using laser holography and reactive ion etching, which may be at the basis of new photovoltaic solar cells.
