Current methods for the evaluation of solar cell efficiency cannot be applied to extremely thin cells where phenomena from the realm of near-field optics prevail. We use the fluctuation dissipation theorem to calculate the rate of power removal from a semiconductor/metal system. This establishes for the first time, to our knowledge, a rigorous electromagnetic basis for solar cell efficiency analysis...
