The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Multi‐dimensional modeling of solar cells with electromagnetic and carrier transport calculations (2013, methodology): “Because the EM calculation, which is based on Maxwell’s equations, has been extensively discussed [10,15,16,21], we solely concentrate on the 3D mathematical model describing the electronic response of the device.”
Light trapping in ultrathin plasmonic solar cells. (2010, unknown): “…for large area metal nanostructure formation include island annealing, which produces irregular shapes and spacings [15,16], colloidal particles [19,20], which control the shape but not the spacing, and deposition through alumina templates, which can provide some control over the patterns [21,22].”
Plasmonics for photovoltaic applications (2010, background): “[16] have reported an increase in power conversion efficiency of 2.”
