The most feasible pathway to record 50% efficiency photovoltaic devices is by utilizing many ( >4) junctions to minimize thermalization and nonabsorption losses. Here we propose a spectrum-splitting design, the polyhedral specular reflector (PSR), th

Restricting the light escape angle within a solar cell significantly enhances light trapping, resulting in potentially higher efficiency in thinner cells. Using an improved detailed balance model for silicon and neglecting diffuse light, we calculate

A ray trace model of the light trapping filtered concentrator spectrum splitting architecture is presented. The scripted ray trace allows for examination of non-idealities in materials and design that were not addressed in previous analytical investi

A spectrum-splitting module design, the polyhedral specular reflector (PSR), is proposed for ultra-high photovoltaic efficiency (>50%). Incident light is mildly concentrated (≤16 suns) and subsequently split seven ways by a series of multilayer die
For cells near the radiative limit, optically limiting the angles of emitted light causes emitted photons to be recycled back to the cell, leading to enhancement in voltage and efficiency. While this has been understood theoretically for some time, o

While monolithic multijunction solar cell approaches have been quite successful, current and lattice matching requirements limit the maximum possible achievable efficiencies. Spectrum splitting, where light is optically distributed among subcells wit

One pathway to achieving ultra-high solar efficiencies (>50%) is employing a spectrum splitting optical element with at least 6 subcells and significant concentration (100-500 suns). We propose a design to meet these criteria, employing specular refl

A design for ultra-high efficiency solar modules (>50%) using spectrum splitting is proposed. In the polyhedral specular reflector design, seven subcells are arranged around a solid parallelepiped. Incident light enters the parallelepiped and is dire
