Abstract

We present multi-resonant Mie resonators comprising dielectric nanopyramid arrays (DNPAs) for efficient broadband light trapping (LT) in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Absorption in a 100 nm-thick active layer is significantly enhanced over a broad range of wavelengths through the simultaneous resonant excitation of electric and magnetic moments. Through optimization, a PSC integrated with a front-located DNPA LT structure having a base edge of 320 nm and a spacing of 180 nm at an aspect ratio of 1.5 yields a short-circuit current density (Jsc) of 18.13 mA/cm2, which is about 29 % higher than that of a planar PSC. Multipole resonance contributions and radiation patterns of DNPs are also investigated. The spectral overlap of the multipole resonances of the DNPAs can be easily tuned, thereby providing performance enhancements in diverse applications, such as nanoantennas, metasurfaces, photodiodes, and other solar cells.
