Abstract
Light absorption in semiconductors is a fundamental problem that has broad impact on a wide range of fields. However, it is intrinsically limited by the bandgap energy of the semiconductor. Herein, we study the enhancement of sub-bandgap light absorption in inorganic-organic hybrid perovskite semiconductor films via critical coupling. This is achieved at large incidence angles by balancing radiative and nonradiative decay rates in a planar multilayer structure. We found that a very small loss in the semiconductor layer can result in substantial light absorption. This simple but general method can be used to enhance the optical and optoelectronic responses of semiconductors below the bandgap energy.
