Structural degradation of tungsten sandwiched in hafnia layers determined by in-situ XRD up to 1520 °C

Abstract The high-temperature stability of thermal emitters is one of the critical properties of thermophotovoltaic (TPV) systems to obtain high radiative power and conversion efficiencies. W and HfO2 are ideal due to their high melting points and low vapor pressures. At high temperatures and given...
