Comparison of Light Trapping in Silicon Nanowire and Surface Textured Thin-Film Solar Cells
The optics of axial silicon nanowire solar cells is investigated and compared to silicon thin-film solar cells with textured contact layers. The quantum efficiency and short circuit current density are calculated taking a device geometry into account, which can be fabricated by using standard semico...
