Near-field thermophotovoltaic energy conversion by excitation of magnetic polariton inside nanometric vacuum gaps with nanostructured Drude emitter and backside reflector
Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer(2019)
Abstract
•The effect of magnetic polariton (MP) on the performance of a near field thermophotovoltaic system containing a Drude grating emitter, an ultra-thin In0.18Ga0.82Sb cell supported by a lossless backside reflector is investigated.•Magnetic polariton excitation above the cell band gap can enhance the conversion efficiency of a near field TPV system with grating emitter over a planar one.•The effects of PV cell thickness and vacuum gap distance are investigated on the TPV performance.
