Solar cell efficiency improvement has been one of the major concerns to realize ultimately
the cost effective efficient solar cells. Among various ways to improve solar cell efficiency …

Unlike silver and gold, aluminum has material properties that enable strong plasmon
resonances spanning much of the visible region of the spectrum and into the ultraviolet. This …

The use of aluminum for plasmonic nanostructures opens up new possibilities, such as
access to short-wavelength regions of the spectrum, complementary metal–oxide …

We present an overview of'aluminium plasmonics', ie the study of both fundamental and
practical aspects of surface plasmon excitations in aluminium structures, in particular thin …

The integration of Ge on Si for photonics applications has reached a high level of maturity:
