A new path towards ultra-high efficient laser power converters: Silicon carbide-based multijunction devices

Current high power laser transmission technology faces two major limitations to improve the efficiency of the photovoltaic receivers: the intrinsic entropic losses associated to low bandgap materials (such as GaAs) and the series resistance losses that degrade the device performance at high power de...
