dc.description.abstract |
The need to attain energy security has prompted intense research in the fields of
solid state lighting and full spectrum solar cells. In addition to conventional systems, wide
band gap semiconductors are explored for their great potential via band gap engineering,
where different regions are suitably alloyed to have a different band gap, so that the device
can cover the entire visible range and also in the IR and UV. However, controlling defects,
interface properties, morphology and inherent strain are challenges that need to be overcome
to improve the luminous efficiencies of these optoelectronic devices.
Recently, the focus has been on metal or surface plasmon induced local field
enhancements [4, 5]. It is believed that as the surface plasmon energy of the metals matches
with the emitted photon energy of the surrounding materials, the resulting resonance can
lead to an energy transfer from the metal surface to the surrounding or vice-versa [6, 7]. |
