Surface absorbs 98% of photons

Australian researchers have increased photon absorption in a semiconductor to almost 99%, according to the University of Sydney. The absorber is a sub-wavelength thin-film semiconductor, and no complex nano-structures, meta-materials, exotic materials or difficult-to-create metal-non-metal combinations have been used. Instead, there are simple slots. When light falls on a thin film etched with narrow grooves, ...
