Thermophotovoltaic and photovoltaic conversion at high-flux densities

We first discuss the similarities between generation of electricity using thermophotovoltaic (TPV) and high-optical-concentration solar photovoltaic (PV) devices. Following this, we consider power losses due to above- and below-bandgap photons, and we estimate the ideal bandgap by minimizing the sum...
