Efficiency enhancement of 22.68%, 20.88% and 17.10% for the cell with In-, Al- and Ag-NPs was obtained, compared to the reference cell. © 2015 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.Optical device fabrication; Optical reflection; Photovoltaic cells; Photovoltaic systems; Plasmons; Silicon[SDGs]SDG7Aluminum; Efficiency; Metal nanoparticles; Nanoparticles; Photoelectrochemical cells; Photovoltaic cells; Photovoltaic effects; Plasmons; Silicon; Silver; Solar cells; Solar power generation; Efficiency enhancement; External quantum efficiency; Optical device fabrication; Optical reflection; Photovoltaic currents; Photovoltaic performance; Photovoltaic systems; Silver nanoparticles; Silicon solar cellsEQE response and photovoltaic performance of plasmonic silicon solar cells based on depositing with aluminum, indium, and silver nanoparticlesconference paper10.1109/MOC.2015.7416431
