Antireflection coatings are very important for high-efficiency solar cells. An ideal antireflection structure should lead to zero reflection loss on solar-cell surfaces over an extended solar spectral range for all angles of incidence. Based on the optical thin-film theory, two multilayer structures are adopted as initial stacks in two conditions, respectively. With the aid of a conjugate graduate optimized method, the incident angles of antireflection coating are 0°–60°, the working wavelength range is 400–1200 nm, and two broadband and wide-angle antireflections are designed. The results show that they can all evidently reduce residual reflection.
