Oral/2009: Plasmonics in Thin Film Solar Cells
Stephan Fahr1, Carsten Rockstuhl1, Falk Lederer1
1Friedrich-Schiller Universität Jena, Institute of Condensed Matter Theory and Solid State Optics, Max-Wien-Platz 1, 07743 Jena
Abstract: Thin film solar cells made of amorphous or microcrystalline silicon provide renewable energy at the benefits of low material consumption. As a drawback, these materials...
Oral/2010: Optical Properties of Bottom-up Metamaterials
Tobias Kienzler1, Stefan Mühlig1, Alastair Cunningham2, Carsten Rockstuhl1, Thomas Bürgi2, Falk Lederer1
1Institute of Condensed Matter Theory and Solid State Optics, Friedrich-Schiller Universität Jena, Germany
2Institute for Physical Chemistry, Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg, Germany
Abstract: The optical properties of metamaterials that can be fabricated with bottom-up approaches and which rely on a suitable arrangement of metallic nanoparticles in space are...
Oral/2010: Is It Possible To Homogenize Resonant Chiral Metamaterials?
Andrei Andryieuski1, Christoph Menzel2, Carsten Rockstuhl2, Radu Malureanu1, Falk Lederer2, Andrei Lavrinenko1
1Technical University of Denmark
2Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena
Abstract: Homogenization of metamaterials is very important as it makes possible description in terms of effective parameters. In this contribution we consider the homogenization of chiral...
Poster/2010: Linear Plasmonic Nano-Antennas: Experiment, Simulation, and Theory
Ralf Vogelgesang1, Jens Dorfmüller1, Klaus Kern1, Carsten Rockstuhl2, Christoph Etrich2
1Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research, 70569 Stuttgart, Germany
2Friedrich-Schiller-Universität, 07743 Jena, Germany
Abstract: We study metallic nano-wire antennas by nearfield optical microscopy, FDTD simulation, and analytic modelling. We measure their nearly unperturbed resonances with apertureless SNOM[1-4]. All our...
Invited/2011: Photon Management in Thin-Film Solar Cells
Carsten Rockstuhl1, Stephan Fahr1, Samuel Wiesendanger1, Falk Lederer1
1Institute of Condensed Matter Theory and Solid State Optics, Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena, Germany
Abstract: Photon management in thin-film solar cells is nowadays indispensable for enhancing their efficiency. We describe various strategies where modern concepts from the field of nanooptics...
