[EN] We present a strategy for simulating the scattering effect of an array of self-aggregated (SA) metal nanoparticles (NPs) on the light absorption in solar cells. We include size and shape effects of the NPs, the effect ...

[EN] This thesis studies the optical properties of random arrays of metal nanoparticles in multilayered substrates such as a solar cell, as well as the electrooptic consequences for those substrates. This study difers ...
