Since the small-sized metallic nanoparticles (NPs) show high absorption ratio, eliminating small-sized NPs to obtain high efficiency light trapping structure in photovoltaic devices is particularly necessary. In the present work, we successfully restrained the formation of small-sized Ag NPs via magnetron sputtering followed by rapid thermal annealing, which is driven by the film fluctuation and rupture...
