Copper and Transparent-Conductor Reflectarray Elements on Thin-Film Solar Cell Panels
Philippe Dreyer, Monica Morales-Masis, Sylvain Nicolay +2
This work addresses the integration of reflectarray antennas (RA) on thin film Solar Cell (SC) panels, as a mean to save real estate, weight, or cost in platforms such as satellite…
Limit of light coupling strength in solar cells
A. Naqavi, F. -J. Haug, C. Ballif +2
We introduce a limit for the strength of coupling light into the modes of solar cells. This limit depends on both a cell's thickness and its modal properties. For a cell with refra…
Angular behavior of the absorption limit in thin film silicon solar cells
Ali Naqavi, Franz-Josef Haug, Karin Söderström +5
We investigate the angular behavior of the upper bound of absorption provided by the guided modes in thin film solar cells. We show that the 4n^2 limit can be potentially exceeded…
