Nanophotonic design principles for ultrahigh efficiency photovoltaics

Year: 2013

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: To date, solar-cell efficiencies have remained well below the thermodynamic limits. However new nanophotonic and microphotonic approaches to light management that systematically minimize thermodynamic losses can enable ultrahigh efficiencies previously considered to be out of reach.
