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...

Can anybody tell me the optical peak of Al and Cu cluster? I mean at what eV/Hz do they have their optical peak? Any experimental report?

for example, Ag has its experimental optical peak at 3.2 eV. Now, at what eV/Hz do the Al and Cu have their optical peak? I am looking for any theoretical or, experimental calculation on that....

Does the magnetic properties of a nanoparticle have any importance when used as the top layer of plasmonic solar sell?

We have seen silver and gold nanoparticles have been used on top of plasmonic solar cell to increase the light absorption. Now, the magnetic properties of silver and gold have any effect on solar...

What might happen when a metal conductor is doped by another metal?

I am only aware of doping into an intrinsic semiconductor. Most probably doping into a metal conductor (lets say silver/aluminium/copper): does it actually make any sense? Just want to know. Any...
