  • DIRECT PLASMONlC PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS WITH INVERTED ARCHITECTURE
    Publication number: 20240188312
    Abstract: A direct plasmonic photovoltaic cell (1) and a method of manufacturing such a photovoltaic cell is proposed. The photovoltaic cell (1) comprises: a first conductive substrate (2): a layer of a p-type semiconductor as a Hole Transporting Layer HTL (3): a layer of metal plasmonic nanoparticles (41. 42): a layer of an n-type semiconductor as an Electron Transporting Layer ETL (5); and a second conductive substrate (6). The HTL (3) is in direct physical contact with the first conductive substrate (2) and the second conductive substrate (6) is in direct physical contact with the ETL (5).
