The Greenhouse Photonic Management Improves Solar Energy Conversion
Author(s): Andrei Sergeev* and Kimberly Sablon
Bio-inspired greenhouse photonic management of a solar cell made of materials with high quantum efficiencies strongly reduces the radioactive emission from the cell shifts the absorption emission detailed balance in favor of absorption, and enhances the conversion efficiency beyond the detailed balance limit. In a Perovskites solar cell, the greenhouse filter establishes a sharp absorption edge and reduces conversion losses related to wide distribution of photovoltaic band gaps in a perovskite material. For power beaming applications, such as charging of unmanned aircrafts by laser beam, the greenhouse filter is the tool of choice to prevent emission inthe range between the semiconductor band gap and the energy of laser quanta...
