How do absorption spectra of the metallic nanoparticle influence the efficiency of plasmonic solar cell?

Metals nanoparticles (NP) are used on top of solar cell to enhance the light absorption in thin film solar cell. Now, lets say NP-A has its absorption range in between 6-18 eV frequency with peak...

What might be the application for a nano-alloy with absorption frequency of 950 THz to 4300 THz (315 nm to 70 nm)?

Using DFT calculation of inorganic X-Y nanoalloys I have got a very wide optical absorption in the frequency range of 950 THz to 4300 THz. i.e., 315nm to 70 nm. So I was just thinking whether this...
