Registration Date 13-09-2023 Organization V. Lashkarev Institute of Semiconductor Physics of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine popup.description1 The main goal of this project is the research and development of thin-film photoelectric converters with plasmonic trapping of light by highly doped silicon nanocrystals and metal nanocrystals and the creation of highly efficient and cheap solar cells. The main original ideas and characteristic features of this project are: 1) the use of cheap Al and/or Cu metal nanocrystals instead of Au and Ag traditionally used in plasmonics, which is very important for the large-scale production of solar cells; 2) the use of highly doped silicon nanocrystals to increase the absorption of the infrared part of the solar spectrum due to the realization of localized surface plasmon resonance; 3) the use of SiOx(Si, Me), SixOyNz(Si, Me) nanocomposite films containing silicon and metal nanocrystals in oxide and oxynitride matrices as an anti-reflective light trapping coating, which will provide simultaneous plasmonic and dielectric light capture; 4) use of pulsed laser technologies to prevent blurring of the boundaries of the constituent ultrathin layers of the structures inherent in traditional isothermal annealing. popup.nrat_date 2024-12-09 Close
