  "abstract": "In this work, we investigated the absorption of light in perovskite nanowires (PrvNWs) for application as active layer in a solar cell. Specifically, we simulated PrvNWs with a random position inside the pores of an AAO membrane. The results demonstrate that this vertical disorder can boost light absorption, up to 28% in terms of short-circuit current, in comparison to the corresponding ordered PrvNW array. This performance boost is due to a combination of light trapping and anti-reflection effect. Thus, our findings suggest that vertically disordered PrvNWs can have a much better performance than ordered arrays. Also, we showed that it is not necessary to aim for a very narrow length distribution in the nanowires, easing the fabrication requirements.",
