Complex Photonic Structures for Light Harvesting
Over the last few years, micro- and nanophotonics have roused a strong interest in the scientific community for their promising impact on the development of novel kinds of solar cells. Certain thin- and ultrathin-film solar cells are made of innovative, often cheap, materials which suffer from a low energy conversion efficiency. Light-trapping mechanisms based on nanophotonics principles are pa...
متن کاملMacroporous Silicon: Technology and Applications
Macroporous silicon (MPS) is a versatile material that since its origin in the early 1990s has seen intense research and has found applications in many fields. MPS is a key technology in photonic crystals research, and optic and photonic applications are its main applications. However, this chapter is devoted to several of the non-photonic uses of MPS. In particular, new electronic and MEMS dev...
متن کاملReplication of Leaf Surface Structures for Light Harvesting
As one of the most important hosts of natural light harvesting, foliage normally has complicated surface structures to capture solar radiances. Bio-mimicking leaf surface structures can provide novel designs of covers in photovoltaic systems. In this article, we reported on replicating leaf surface structures on poly-(methyl methacrylate) polymers to prompt harvesting efficiencies. Prepared via...
متن کاملIR light harvesting with silicon microspheres - application to photovoltaic devices
Single-junction photovoltaic devices suffer from intrinsic obstacles limiting their efficiency to a top value dictated by the well-known Shockley–Queisser (SQ) limit [1]. The most fundamental limitation is given by the energy bandgap of the semiconductor, which determines the minimum energy of photons that can be converted into electron-hole pairs. In the case of silicon a large percentage of i...
متن کاملSERS-Active Substrate Based on Macroporous Silicon
Novel architectures with nanometric are very promising as building blocks for future nanotechnological applications. Metallic substrates with ordered morphology have been shown to be very effective for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The sensitivity of detection is increased by several orders of magnitude by using this technique. In this paper we investigate SERS on thermal evaporated...
