Micrometer-Thin Crystalline-Silicon Solar Cells Integrating Numerically Optimized 2-D Photonic Crystals
V. Depauw, X. Meng, O. El Daif +7
A 2-D photonic crystal was integrated experimentally into a thin-film crystalline-silicon solar cell of 1-μm thickness, after numerical optimization maximizing light absorption in…
On the Energy Self-Sustainability of IoT via Distributed Compressed Sensing
Wei Chen, Nikos Deligiannis, Yiannis Andreopoulos +1
This paper advocates the use of the distributed compressed sensing (DCS) paradigm to deploy energy harvesting (EH) Internet of Thing (IoT) devices for energy self-sustainability. W…
Analysis of enhanced stimulated Brillouin scattering in silicon slot waveguides
Raphaël Van Laer, Bart Kuyken, Dries Van Thourhout +1
Stimulated Brillouin scattering has attracted renewed interest with the promise of highly tailorable integration into the silicon photonics platform. However, significant Brillouin…
Broadband absorption enhancement in ultra-thin crystalline Si solar cells by incorporating metallic and dielectric nanostructures in the back reflector
Samart Jain, Valerie Depauw, Vladimir D. Miljkovic +5
We propose a back-reflecting scheme in order to enhance the maximum achievable current in one micron thick crystalline silicon solar cells. We perform 3-dimensional numerical inves…
Inverted random nanopyramids patterning for crystalline silicon photovoltaics
Ounsi El Daif, Christos Trompoukis, Bjoern Niesen +4
We demonstrate a nanopatterning technique for silicon photovoltaics, which optically outperforms conventional micron-scale random pyramids, while decreasing by a factor of ten the…
Silicon-on-insulator integrated source of polarization-entangled photons
Laurent Olislager, Jassem Safioui, Stéphane Clemmen +5
We report the experimental generation of polarization-entangled photons at telecommunication wavelengths using spontaneous four-wave mixing in silicon-on-insulator wire waveguides.…
