Interpretation of Solar Reflection Data
2017This part of the spectrum is the most intensively studied region for remote sensing of the Earth. Solar reflected energy reaching the sensor depends upon a number of factors, viz. Sun attitude, atmospheric-meteorological conditions, topography, slope and aspect, sensor look angle and target reflectance.

Solar Heat Reflecting Coatings
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1969<div class="htmlview paragraph">Tests conducted at the U. S. Army Coating and Chemical Laboratory, Aberdeen Proving Ground, indicate that some pigments are better than others in reducing heat build-up on painted surfaces from solar radiation. Special tests were also conducted to check the application of paint on automobile surfaces, using 12 ...

Reflections on the topic of solar fuels
Energy Environ. Sci., 2014The amount of energy and chemicals extracted to date from sunlight by the solar fuels community is minute in comparison with the corresponding amounts being regularly extracted from non-renewable sources. This brief appraisal discusses why.

Reflection controlling metasurfaces for solar cell applications
Metamaterials XII, 2019In this study, we propose a new approach for controlling reflection of light by using highly efficient and polarization insensitive all-dielectric metasurfaces. Moreover, we applied our model on the planar silicon solar cell to manage light trapping.

Infrared Reflecting Solar Cells
IEEE Transactions on Aerospace, 1965The equilibrium temperature of a solar cell panel in space is a function of the ratio of solar absorptance to infrared emittance of the surface. This paper describes a method for reducing solar absorptance by constructing the solar cell so that it will be a reflector in the infrared part of the solar spectrum.

Influence of the solar irradiance spectrum on solar reflectance measuremens
2013Solar reflectance is the key performance parameter of cool roof and cool pavement materials. For its assessment, the measured spectral reflectivity of the sample is weighted by a reference spectrum of solar irradiance. Several standard and non-standard spectra are however available, taking into account different climate conditions, angle of incidence ...
