Limiting efficiencies of solar energy conversion and photo-detection via internal emission of hot electrons and hot holes in gold

We evaluate the limiting efficiency of full and partial solar spectrum harvesting via the process of internal photoemission in Au-semiconductor Schottky junctions. Our results based on the ab initio calculations of the electron density of states (e-DOS) reveal that the limiting efficiency of the ful...
