Enhanced absorption by channeling at low wavelengths (blue) Effective index medium theories not suitable Channeling in nanoholes: larger absorption in underlying material remaining absorption around holes : need for a good passivation Photovoltaic Technical Conference - Thin Film & Advanced Silicon Solutions Sonia MESSADI2 Electric field with and without conformal heterojunction Gomard et al, Optics Express, Vol. 21, Issue S3, pp. A515-A527 (2013) c-Si a-Si

Modal Engineering at large wavelengths (red)3 Photovoltaic Technical Conference - Thin Film & Advanced Silicon Solutions Sonia MESSADI Slow Bloch Mode critical coupling : coupling losses = absorption losses  Max peak absorption (50%) Strong coupling of Slow Bloch Modes with incident plane wave: Lower absorption peak value Larger width  Larger integrated absorption Process underway using bounded crystalline silicon thin films In order to generate complex patterns, interferential lithography and dry etching can be used.
