Active Invisibility Cloaks in One Dimension

open access: yes, 2015
We outline a general method of constructing finite-range cloaking potentials which render a given finite-range real or complex potential $v(x)$ unidirectionally reflectionless or invisible at a wavenumber $k_0$ of our choice.

Light Trapping Textures Designed by Electromagnetic Optimization for Sub-Wavelength Thick Solar Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Light trapping in solar cells allows for increased current and voltage, as well as reduced materials cost. It is known that in geometrical optics, a maximum 4n^2 absorption enhancement factor can be achieved by randomly texturing the surface of the solar

High Light Utilization and Color Rendering in Vacuum‐Deposited Semitransparent Perovskite Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, low bandgap (≈1.55 eV) semitransparent perovskite solar cells (ST‐PSCs) having thin (thickness < ≈100 nm) perovskite layers and transparent conductive oxide‐based rear electrodes are fabricated using vacuum‐deposition methods. Two different ST‐PSCs demonstrated a high light utilization efficiency value of 4.2 (PCE: 9.26% and AVT: 45.3 ...

Effect of size and shape on reflective properties of silicon nanocone arrays

open access: yesJournal of Hebei University of Science and Technology, 2018
In order to investigate the optical properties of silicon nanocone arrays with different sizes and shapes, the nanocone arrays are fabricated on silicon substrate by submicron dry etching process masked by self-assembled nano-particles.

Optimised Fabry-Perot (AlGa)As quantum well lasers tunable over 105 nm [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Uncoated, Fabry-Perot (AlGa)As semiconductor lasers are tuned over 105nm in a grating-coupled external cavity. Broadband tunability is achieved by optimising the resonator loss so as to invoke lasing from both the first and second quantised states of the

When Poor Exciton Dissociation Limits Photocurrents in Organic Solar Cells: Why Low Offset Non‐Fullerene Acceptor Blends Can't Be Efficient

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The energetic offset between the donor and the acceptor components in organic photoactive layers is central to the tradeoff between photovoltage and photocurrent losses. This Perspective covers the most important issues surrounding this topic in non‐fullerene acceptor blends, from the difficulty of accurately determining state energies and driving ...

Pulse-length dependence of the laser-induced damage behavior of a fused-silica antireflective metasurface

open access: yesHigh Power Laser Science and Engineering
A broadband, antireflective metasurface optic on a silica substrate is subjected to laser-induced damage-threshold measurements to quantify its performance under exposure to high-intensity/fluence laser pulses in the near-infrared at four pulse durations,

Black-Si as a Photoelectrode

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
The fabrication and characterization of photoanodes based on black-Si (b-Si) are presented using a photoelectrochemical cell in NaOH solution. B-Si was fabricated by maskless dry plasma etching and was conformally coated by tens-of-nm of TiO2 using ...
