What Types of Solar Cells Benefit from Plasmonic Enhancements?
Plasmonic enhancements can be applied to various types of solar cells, including silicon-based cells, organic photovoltaics, and perovskite solar cells. Each type benefits differently; for instance, silicon-based cells, which are typically thick and have high refractive indices, gain from improved light trapping, while organic photovoltaics benefit from enhanced absorption in their typically thin active layers.
