2. Fabry Pérot Nanocavity Produced via Solution Methods
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialfysik; Uppsala universitet/Fysikalisk kemiAbstract : Plasmonics have attracted significant attention from the scientific community for photoelectrode technologies since they offer tunability, large light absorption cross-sections, transparency and potential scalability. On the downside, plasmonics exhibit large absorption cross sections in a narrow window compared to the total electromagnetic spectrum, leading to relatively small efficiencies. READ MORE
