    Abstract: A waveguide structure includes a substrate, a waveguide film, and an overlay material in contact with the waveguide film. The overlay material nay also contact the substrate or the film may be disposed between the overlay and the substrate. The overlay material has a higher refractive index than the waveguide so that the ratio of the effective refractive indexes is substantially constant for all propagating modes supported by the waveguide.

    Abstract: Textured superstrates for photovoltaic cells, for example, silicon tandem photovoltaic cells with light scattering properties which are sufficient for light trapping independent of wavelength are described herein. Features of a textured surface of a superstrate, via the method(s) used to make the textured superstrate, can be tailored to provide the desired light scattering/trapping properties. The method includes grinding and lapping or grinding, lapping, and etching of a glass superstrate.
