Beyond Conventional: Nanostructures as Key Enablers for Efficiency Enhancement in Thin Film Photovoltaics
Abstract: One of the key options for lowering the cost of photovoltaic production through the reduction ofactive material utilisation is thin-film solar cells. However, thin film solar cells' performance may beconstrained by low light absorption brought on by a low absorption coefficient or by an inadequatelythick active layer. Minimising expenses and increasing overall efficiency in thin-film solar cells needimproving light absorption that can be converted into electrical power. As a result, …
