Numerical Study of an Efficient Solar Absorber Consisting of Metal Nanoparticles

Abstract We propose and theoretically investigate an efficient solar light absorber based on a multilayer structure consisting of tungsten nanoparticle layers and SiO2 layers. According to our calculation, average absorbance over 94% is achieved in the wavelength range between 400 and 2500 nm for th...
