Light Trapping Limit Revisited: How do Guided Modes Enhance Light Absorption in Solar Cells?

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We explore the limit of absorption enhancement in thin film solar cells obtained by guided mode excitation and we discuss the geometrical and angular dependence of absorption. We consider the modal properties of the cell.
