Solar cell is considered as one of the key "green" energy resources considering the carbon-emission concern. Solar energy conversion is a highly attractive process for clean and renewable power [1-2]. People are attracted by this huge renewable and clean energy with great interest. It has been studied and discussed day by day. In this project, an application of the nano-structure to the Si-based solar cell devices would be worked out. Simulation would be done as theoretically supporting, to describe the efficiently absorbing of the solar energy by using the nano-structures. A new wet etching method will be studied in this report.
