Solar cells: Losses made visible on the nanoscale
Solar cells made of crystalline silicon achieve peak efficiencies, especially in combination with selective contacts made of amorphous silicon (a-Si:H). However, their efficiency is limited by losses in these contact layers.Phys.org: 2021-03-17

Plasmonic gold nanogaps make light shine ever brighter
Physicists came across a phenomenon that boosts the light from a nanoscale device more than 1,000 times greater than they anticipated.Nanowerk: 2021-03-18
