Improved Thermal Transfer Efficiency for Planar Solar Thermophotovoltaic Devices
Solar thermophotovoltaic (STPV) devices provide conversion of solar energy to electrical energy through the use of an intermediate absorber/emitter module, which converts the broad solar spectrum to a tailored spectrum that is emitted towards a photovoltaic cell. While the use of an absorber/emitter...
