Some recent developments in nanotechnology have opened up new avenues for more relevant inorganic solar cells produced by new photovoltaic conversion concepts and effective solar energy harvesting nanostructures. In this review, the multiple exciton generation effect solar cells, hot carrier solar cells, one dimensional material constructed asymmetrical schottky barrier arrays, noble nanoparticle induced plasmonic enhancement, and light trapping nanostructured semiconductor solar cells are highlighted.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Nano-Micro Letters}, author={Zhang, Yafei and Geng, Huijuan and Zhou, Zhihua and Wu, Jiang and Wang, Zhiming and Zhang, Yaozhong and Li, Zhongli and Zhang, Liying and Yang, Zhi and Hwang, HueyLiang}, year={2012}, month={Jun.}, pages={124-134} }
