Utilizing plasmonic metal nanoparticles is considered as one of the promising methods for increasing the conversion efficiency in thin film organic solar cells. However, the bare metal nanoparticles may suffer from the energy loss introduced by themselves due to the recombination of electro-hole pairs. In this paper, the optical absorption enhancement of thin film organic solar cells with plasmonic...
In this work, we investigate the effects produced on the light absorption and scattering by silver nanoparticles, arranged in a periodic pattern, placed on the top of amorphous thin silicon (α-Si) layer. Solar conversion efficiency in thin film solar cells can be enhanced exploiting surface plasmon (SP) waves and resonances. The deposition of metal nanoparticles layers on the top of a thin film silicon...
Recently, thin-film solar cells enhanced with plasmonic nanoparticles have attracted much attention of the scientific community. To improve the performance of such cells, an optimization of the nanoparticle parameters such as size, surface coverage and material is performed. Based on this optimization, the role of surface plasmons is discussed and analyzed with respect to optical absorption of the...
