Global adoption of solar photovoltaic (PV) cells as a sustainable substitute to fossil fuel technologies has been impeded by its low efficiency. Generally, efficiency of these devices strongly depends on their ability to absorb radiations of electromagnetic waves incident on them. Their low absorptivity provides a challenge. Metamaterials (MTM) based solar cells offer an opportunity for increasing the system efficiency by enhancing the total absorbed solar radiation incident on solar PV cells. In this thesis a wide-band MTM absorber for solar cell application is proposed. The thesis first explains theories, properties and applications of metamaterials. Different absorber designs, including dual-bands and tunable wide-band perfect MTMs, are ...
