Enhancement absorption of solar cells with plasmonic nanostructures
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 8, Issue 9
Abstract
In this paper, the increase of light absorption in thin-film solar cells is studied. In these cells, light absorption becomes less due to reduced thickness. Light scattering by metallic nanoparticles is a way to increase light absorption and depends on several factors. Here, two of the factors that one is changing the distance between the nanoparticles and the next one is changing the nanoparticle type are examined and the results are simulated by the finite element method (FEM). It is shown that by changing the nanoparticle type and the periodicity of nanoparticles, the passing range can be increased.
