In the field of photothermal conversion, light-absorbing layers show limitations such as low solar energy utilization and excessive surface reflection. This paper proposes a new anti-reflective coating consisting of a gradient-doped fluorescent glass film covering a subwavelength structural layer for photothermal conversion. Its transmittance was simulated using equivalent medium theory and the admittance recursion method. The subwavelength structure provides a refractive index gradient, and its shape solves the problem of the sharp decrease in transmittance at high angles of incidence. Subsequently, we adjust the material parameters of the gradient refractive layers and control the thickness of each layer to minimize interlayer Fresnel reflections. Finally, the efficient light-trapping ability of the model was verified by calculating and comparing the transmittances of the optimized model and bare glass. Notably, within the visible spectrum, our model achieves an average transmittance of over 95% across wavelength and angle ranges, effectively suppressing surface reflections. At a larger light incident angle, the transmittance increases by 29.7%, and the minimum angle transmittance reaches 92.7%. This study proposes an innovative method to enhance the performance of transmission layers in photothermal conversion devices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
