Semiconductor solar superabsorber
Yiling Yu, Lujun Huang, Linyou Cao
Understanding the maximal enhancement of solar absorption in semiconductor materials by light trapping promises the development of affordable solar cells. However, the conventional…
Non-equilibrium Thermal Super-radiation of Real Materials
Yiling Yu, Linyou Cao
We elucidate the theoretically maximal thermal radiation power from real materials at a given temperature. Our results demonstrate that the thermal radiation from real materials ma…
Layer-dependent Electrocatalysis of MoS2 for Hydrogen Evolution
Yifei Yu, Shengyang Huang, Yanpeng Li +3
The quantitative correlation of the catalytic activity with microscopic structure of heterogeneous catalysts is a major challenge for the field of catalysis science. It requests sy…
Leaky Mode Engineering: A General Design Principle for Dielectric Optical Antenna Solar Absorbers
Yiling Yu, Linyou Cao
We present a general principle for the rational design of dielectric optical antennas with optimal solar absorption enhancement: leaky mode engineering. This builds upon our previo…
Solar Superabsorption of Semiconductor Materials
Yiling Yu, Lujun Huang, Linyou Cao
We theoretically demonstrate the fundamental limit in volume for given materials (e.g. Si, a-Si, CdTe) to fully absorb the solar radiation above bandgap, which we refer as solar su…
