摘要
Here we study different approaches for increasing energy harvesting in titania based photoelectrochemical solar (PES) cells. We study the light harvesting of PES cells when photonic crystal and photonic sponge architectures are used. We also report on the influence of the surface corrugation of the metal electrode on the harvesting of photocarriers in solar cells
