Thin-film ‘Thermal Well’ Emitters and Absorbers for High-Efficiency Thermophotovoltaics
A new approach is introduced to significantly improve the performance of thermophotovoltaic (TPV) systems using low-dimensional thermal emitters and photovoltaic (PV) cells. By reducing the thickness of both the emitter and the PV cell, strong spectral selectivity in thermal emission and absorption...
