“…The solar cell structures with the top grating layer (solar cell structures A, C, and Pyramid A) showed lower dependency on the polar angle, whereas Pyramid A presented the best results. This improvement can be explained by claiming that the pyramid acts as a black body cavity in which the incident radiation is scattered within the cavity resulting in lower reflectivity for wide incident angles [ 53 ].…”

In this paper, we examine the impact of three-dimensional grating layers embedded at selected locations in an organic solar cell structure to obtain enhanced efficiency. The design, simulations, and optimizations were carried out using an in-house tool based on the rigorous coupled-wave analysis (RCWA) method developed on the MATLAB R2019a platform. An optimal organic solar cell structure design with a top grating layer exhibited an increase of 7.47% in the short-circuit current density compared to an organic solar cell structure with a smooth top layer. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) increase was mainly due to increased light confinement in the thin absorbing layer. Adding an embedded grating layer in the absorption layer resulted in a significant increase in the absorptance spectral bandwidth, where the short-circuit current density increased by 10.88%. In addition, the grating cells yielded a substantial improvement in the cell’s conical absorptance since the existence of a surface plasmon polariton (SPP) in the back metal gratings increases the confinement properties. Further, the effect of a pyramid-shaped embedded grating array was a slight improvement in the PCE compared to the rectangular-shaped grating arrays. We showed that a pyramid-grating can act as a nano black-body layer, increasing the absorption for a wide range of azimuthal and polar incident angles.

“…Instead, a mixed RGB-colored LED is used to simulate the emitted visible light spectrum similar to that of incandescent bulbs. For instance, if an LED has a CCT of T, this implies that the perceived color of light emitted by the LED matches the color of light that would be emitted by a perfect blackbody of temperature T. The relationship between perceived color and blackbody temperature is described by a curve called the Planckian locus in the chromaticity space; see Zwinkels [2].…”

Solar energy is an energy derived from sun. The intensity of the Sun's rays gets reduced as it travels through the atmosphere. New and enhanced version of receiver in Parabolic Dish collector helps in increasing the output, which is created by sandwiching of two different materials rather than that of one. Study is conducted by comparing steady heat transfer rate in terms of their thermal conductivity. Comparatively, this enhanced version of receiver in Parabolic Dish Collector is replaced by two materials and sandwiching them together. With Transient Thermal analysis, rate of temperature along the inner walls of receiver are predicted and accordingly the need for coupling of materials is studied.
