RESUMO
The comparison of optical and electronic properties between squarely and hexagonally arranged nano-porous layers and uniformly arranged nano-wired layers of aluminium and silver was presented. The nano-wired configuration exhibit 20 and 10% higher average transmittance in visible wavelength range in comparison to square and hexagonal nano-porous designs, respectively. The insignificant difference of the transmittance for aluminium and silver nano-porous and nano-wired layers is observed, when interpore/interwire distance is larger than wavelengths of incoming light. This difference becomes considerable at the interpore/interwire distance less than wavelengths of incoming light: silver nano-porous and nano-wired layers possess up to 27% higher transmittance in comparison to aluminium layers.
