Omnidirectional Light Capture by Solar Cells Mimicking the Structures of the Epidermal cells of Leaves
Abstract It is important to develop solar cells that can capture and utilize omnidirectional light in urban environments, where photovoltaic (PV) devices are installed in fixed directions. We report a new design for such light capture, which mimics the structure of a leaf epidermis. First, we analyz...
