Journal ArticleDOI
Graphene-based thermionic-thermoradiative solar cells: Concept, efficiency limit, and optimum design
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive and consistent model is formulated to include effects of thermal coupling between the absorbers, space-charge effect, non-radiative recombination, and various irreversible energy losses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum-dot heat engines with irreversible heat transfer
TL;DR: In this article, the authors established a quantum heat engine considering qubits as the external heat transfer medium, and showed that the efficiency and power output of the quantum heat engines are closely dependent on the micro properties of qubits, and consequently relate the irreversible heat transfer with quantum effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
One of the most efficient methods to utilize full-spectrum solar energy: A photovoltaic-thermoradiative coupled system
TL;DR: In this article, a photovoltaic-thermoradiative coupled system is proposed to improve the performance of photovolcanic cells, where the main irreversible losses in the system are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hybrid direct carbon fuel cell-thermoradiative systems for high-efficiency waste-heat recovery
TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid system consisting of a direct carbon fuel cell and a Gallium antimonide thermoradiative device is proposed, where the effects of thermal coupling between the subsystems, over-potential losses in the fuel cell, non-radiative recombination and sub-bandgap radiation in the thermodynamic device, and various heat losses within the system are included.
Journal ArticleDOI
Designing high-performance nighttime thermoradiative systems for harvesting energy from outer space.
TL;DR: An improved nighttime thermoradiative system for electrical power generation by optically coupling Earth's surface with outer space is proposed and it is found that optimizing the thickness of the active layer, enhancing thermal infrared emission, and employing a silver backreflector for photon recycling are crucially important in improving system performance.
