Abstract

Nanostructures play an important role in state-of-the-art photovoltaic devices. Optical and electrical characteristics of the devices can be improved with properly designed and fabricated nanotextures. In this contribution, we highlight examples of possible fabrication of nanotextures by using UV nanoimprinted lithography, their optical characterization by camera based angular resolved spectroscopy and perform computer-assisted design of nanotextures for best optical performance of heterojunction silicon and ultra-thin chalcopyrite solar cells.
