Abstract
We engineered an epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) material from suitably disordered metallic nanostructures. We experimentally demonstrate that this nanomaterial increases up to a record value the absorption of ultra-thin light harvesting films at visible and infrared wavelengths with a broadband enhancement of 170% in the external quantum efficiency (EQE). In addition, we developed a cost-effective fabrication process that make these materials suitable to large scale production.
