Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A promising flat-panel solar thermal to electric power conversion technology based on the Seebeck effect and high thermal concentration is demonstrated, thus enabling wider applications and opening up a promising new approach which has the potential to achieve cost-effective conversion of solar energy into electricity.
Abstract: The conversion of sunlight into electricity has been dominated by photovoltaic and solar thermal power generation. A highly efficient solar to electric energy conversion device based on nanostructured thermoelectric materials and high solar concentration is now demonstrated. The results show potential for cost effective solar thermoelectric generation.
