Contributor Budko, N.V. (mentor) Faculty Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science Department Telecommunications Programme Laboratory of Electromagnetic Research Date 2011-02-28 Abstract In this thesis we perform a in-depth comparison study between different geometri- cal possibilities for solar cells to find an optimal design. Basic numerical experiments on the essential parts of the improve- ments in the geometry were performed separately to obtain an indication about increasing efficiency for 2D configurations. Our research has a strong focus on the inclusion of metallic and dielectric nanoparticles to enhance absorption efficiency.
