Cloaking of Contact Fingers on Solar Cells Enabled by Transformation Optics

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We employ coordinate transformations to design two different optical structures for cloaking of reflective front contacts on solar cells. The cloaking performance is verified in a proof-of-principle experiment and using ray tracing simulations.
