Recent results and new perspectives in nanophotonics, photovoltaics, and nanotechnology from the groups of AMOLF, led by Professor A. Polman in Amsterdam, and of the #DFA, led by Professor F. Priolo in Catania, will be presented and brought together in this one-day workshop, which will be concluded by a Science Colloquium on Light management and the dream of photovoltaic energy for 0.01 €/kWh by Albert Polman. The workshop will also feature a presentation by Professor Giulia Tagliabue (EPFL).
