Tailoring optical absorption in silicon nanostructures from UV to visible light: A TDDFT study
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
The utilization of silicon nanostructures, from quantum dots to nanowires, for photovoltaic applications depends on understanding the effect of their physical structure on their optical absorption properties. In this work, ...
Modeling of dual-metal Schottky contacts based silicon micro and nano wire solar cells
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Article)
We study solar cell properties of single silicon wires connected at their ends to two dissimilar metals of different work functions. Effects of wire dimensions, the work functions of the metals, and minority carrier lifetimes ...
