The use of conical-shaped plasmonic nanostructures for light management in an ultra-thin
silicon solar cell has been investigated. The optical absorption and hence photocurrent are …

ZnO films with excellent photoelectric properties have been realized in this study through
low-concentration F-and-Al co-do**, conducted with radio-frequency magnetron …

Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is an ideal replacement of glass where impact of weight is
a serious issue. PMMA surface can be modified to make it highly transparent substrate …

Transparent conducting films are extensively used in optoelectronic devices. In this work,
fluorine-doped zinc oxide (FZO) thin films were deposited from a ZnO: ZnF2 (3 mol%) target …

A porous TiO 2 layer was formed on a fluorine-doped tinoxide (FTO) film using a microwave
heating technique, and applied to a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC). Under microwave …

In this work, the fabrication of the nanoimprinted titanium dioxide (TiO 2) gratings via thermal
nanoimprinting lithography method (T-NIL) and its visible light response are studied. A …

modulation.•Parasitic absorption was effectively ameliorated while maintained the light …

Featured Application Light management is important for solar cell performance. Light-
coupling and light-scattering based on rough interfaces are discussed in detail for the …

Nanorod-like single-textured Al-doped ZnO (AZO) transparent conducting films were
prepared by the simple hydrothermal growth of AZO nanorods on AZO seed layers. The …

Double textures were applied to use for multi-junction silicon thin film (Si-TF) solar cells. To
improve the longer wavelength, we were formed the microscale periodic honeycomb …
