The Effects of Electronic and Photonic Coupling on the Performance of a Photothermionic-Photovoltaic Hybrid Solar Device [PDF]

open access: yesThe effects of electronic and photonic coupling on the performance of a photothermionic-photovoltaic hybrid solar device, Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells, Volume 247, 2022, 111945, ISSN 0927-0248,, 2022
This work presents a detailed analysis of the photothermionic-photovoltaic hybrid solar device. The electrons in this hybrid device gain energy from both the solar photons and thermophotons generated within the device, and hence the device has the potential to offer a voltage boost compared to individual photothermionic or photovoltaic devices. We show
