In the last decade, Solar Cells (SCs) have evolved as a prominent renewable energy source
and they utilize sunlight for generating electricity. It also makes a contribution to a more …

Owing to the extraordinary physical and chemical properties, and the potential to couple with
nanoplasmonic structures, two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides are …

To enhance blue light absorption, a nanohole-array was designed and fabricated on the
surface of silicon. The absorptivity of the silicon/nanohole-array composite structure was …

Compared to crystalline silicon solar cells, thin-film solar cells are inexpensive, but a weak
absorption of sunlight at a longer wavelength is a significant issue. In this perspective, an …

Photovoltaic (PV) cell is a fundamental solar energy conversion device that converts light
energy into electric energy. The light absorption and charge recombination are main limiting …
