High performance hybrid silicon micropillar solar cell based on light trapping characteristics of Cu nanoparticles

High performance hybrid silicon micropillar solar cell based on light trapping characteristics of Cu nanoparticles

High performance silicon combined structure (micropillar with Cu nanoparticles) solar cell has been synthesized from N-type silicon substrates based on the micropillar array. The combined structure solar cell exhibited higher short circuit current rather than the silicon miropillar solar cell, which...
