“…In practice, thermophotovoltaics (TPV) have been around for many decades [89] and have recently become a hot research area [90][91][92]. Broadly speaking, they re-emit the absorbed radiation at different frequencies and bandwidths.…”

“…Broadly speaking, they re-emit the absorbed radiation at different frequencies and bandwidths. DeMeo et al [92] suggest using them with rectennas and propose many design prototypes. Some trials have taken place to commercialize their application [89,93].…”

“…cooling as the rear-surface is not electrically active [2]. The MIM cells experience increased robustness as the system can be made so the entire cell will not fail if one sub-cell fails when by-pass diodes are included [26].…”

“…A filter in addition to a selective emitter can aid in emitter temperature maintenence by reflecting unused photons back to the emitter to be absorbed. A good filter should have high transmission of above band gap photons, high reflection of sub-band gap photons, a sharp transmission from reflection to transmission at the band gap energy, and minimal parasitic absorption of energy in the filter [2]. Ideally, any photons with energies far above the band gap, which would increase thermalization or be absorbed too quickly and generate carriers too far from the diode junction, would be reflected as well, but this behavior is difficult to achieve with good sub-band rejection.…”
