Abstract
This study investigated the absorption efficiency of GaAs/In0.2Ga0.8As cylindrical core-shell nanowire (NW) solar cells with a circular cross-section for normal incident light. Numerical results obtained through finite-difference time-domain simulation showed that NW dimensions influenced the absorption efficiency of the solar cells. The band structure of the wires was also investigated.
