Abstract
An innovative black silicon (Si) with enhanced photoelectric performance was directly processed by femtosecond (fs) laser irradiation in ambient air. Followed by decorated with Au nanoparticles, this processed Si is shown to enhance the light absorption from the surface in a wide wave band, especially in the near-infrared range of 1.1 ~2.5μm, where the absorption of Au decorated black Si (B-Si-Au) nearly reaches to 70%, and displaying double magnitude higher than the bare black Si (B-Si). A systematic investigation of synergy effect between the hierarchical texture and Au NP-induced localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) is crucial to upgrade B-Si-Au absorption enhancement. On one hand, the processed microstructures on the Si surface may effectively extend the incident light path and thus provide more chance for the photon perennate into the Si and thus reducing reflection; on the other hand, strong scattered fields in the vicinity of Au nanoparticles generate extremely high intensity hot spots, which in turn lead further enhancement of absorption.
