TL;DR: This paper proposes in this paper a novel idea of using nucleated silver nanoparticles to effectively scatter light in a broadband wavelength range to realize pronounced absorption enhancement in the silicon absorbing layer of plasmonic solar cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tweezing and manipulating micro- and nanoparticles by optical nonlinear endoscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate optical nonlinear endoscopic tweezers (ONETs) for directly controlling and manipulating aquatic micro- and nanobeads as well as gold nanorods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low cost and high performance Al nanoparticles for broadband light trapping in Si wafer solar cells
TL;DR: In this article, low cost and earth abundant Al nanoparticles are simulated and compared with noble metal nanoparticles Ag and Au for plasmonic light trapping in Si wafer solar cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards ultra-thin plasmonic silicon wafer solar cells with minimized efficiency loss
TL;DR: Using the advanced light trapping strategy with a properly designed nanoparticle architecture, the wafer thickness can be dramatically reduced to only around 1/10 of the current thickness without any solar cell efficiency loss at 18.2%.
