• Solar thermophotovoltaics: reshaping the solar spectrum (2016, background): “Reliable operation for hundreds of hours over 1200∘C, with up to 29% conversion of selected thermal emission to electricity was achieved shortly thereafter [22].”
• Solar thermophotovoltaic energy conversion systems with two-dimensional tantalum photonic crystal absorbers and emitters (2014, background): “By converting the incident solar radiation to a narrow-band thermal emission matched to the spectral response of the PV cell, STPVs have the potential to overcome the Shockley– Queisser limit for the efficiency of PVs ( 33% for 1 sun) [1,2].”
