Anti-reflection coatings of zero-index metamaterial for solar cells

Anti-reflection coatings of zero index metamaterials (ZIMs) are proposed for maximum absorption of light in solar cells. A thin layer of a ZIM is shown to help trap light inside a solar cell. The outer surface of a ZIM layer is planar, and the inner surface has periodic corrugations in order for the...
