This paper presents some applications of a new implementation of the Fourier modal method to solve the Maxwell equations in nanostructured optoelectronic solid state devices like solar cells and image sensors. The proposed method is based on an improved and computational efficient T-matrix approach that can be extended to three-dimensional geometries. The applications reported are particularly interesting for photovoltaic devices as photon management strategies to improve the light absorption inside the semiconductor medium.

Abstract

This paper presents some applications of a new implementation of the Fourier modal method to solve the Maxwell equations in nanostructured optoelectronic solid state devices like solar cells and image sensors. The proposed method is based on an improved and computational efficient T-matrix approach that can be extended to three-dimensional geometries. The applications reported are particularly interesting for photovoltaic devices as photon management strategies to improve the light absorption inside the semiconductor medium.
