Nanotechnology may work as a powerful weapon to be used for creating competitive advantages in the energy market. Using the photovoltaic nano-panels, which may reduce considerably the production costs and meet simultaneously…
One of the major goals of nanobionics and bottom-up synthetic biology is the development of artificial cell organelles for the creation of cell-like structures operating similar to biological systems with a minimalistic set of building…
Photovoltaic cells usually have two terminals, one collecting electrons and the other collecting holes. Can more terminals improve such solar cells? Energy-filtering terminals could collect "hot" carriers (electrons or holes not yet relaxed…
The optical and electrical properties of optically-thin one-dimensional (1D) Ag nanogratings and two-dimensional (2D) Ag nanogrids are studied, and their use as transparent electrodes in organic photovoltaics are explored. A large broadband…

Organic phototransistors (OPTs), compared to traditional inorganic counterparts, have attracted a great deal of interest because of their inherent flexibility, light-weight, easy and low-cost fabrication, and are considered as potential…
Luminescence solar concentrators act as semi-transparent photovoltaic cells and can be applied to large surface areas in modern urban environment. In this paper their optical efficiencies were analytically derived for different unit shapes…
Nano-scaled metallic or dielectric structures may provide various ways to trap light into thin-film solar cells for improving the conversion efficiency. In most schemes, the textured active layers are involved into light trapping structures…

The paper proposes a model of an organic solar cell based on Tamm plasmon polariton localized at the boundary of the active layer doped with plasmon nanoparticles and a multilayer mirror. It is shown that the integral absorption in the…
A design tool was formulated for optimizing the efficiency of inorganic, thin-film, photovoltaic solar cells. The solar cell can have multiple semiconductor layers in addition to antireflection coatings, passivation layers, and buffer…
Systems are growing into more complex ones for developing and maintaining. Existing systems which do not have much in common on the first look are connected, due to the technical progress, even if it was never intended that way. It is an…
Inorganic ferroelectric perovskite oxides are more stable than hybrid perovskites. However, their solar energy harvest efficiency is not so good. Here, by constructing a series of BiFeO3 based devices (solar cells), we investigated three…
The richness of optical and electronic properties of graphene attracts enormous interest. Graphene has high mobility and optical transparency, in addition to flexibility, robustness and environmental stability. So far, the main focus has…
Maximizing the power conversion efficiency of solar cells plays a crucial role in upscaling solar energy production. Combining two or more solar cells with different bandgaps into a multi-junction tandem solar cells lowers thermalization…
