摘要： A hybrid receiver for a concentrator photovoltaic-thermal power system combines a concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) module and a thermal module that converts concentrated sunlight into electrical energy and thermal heat. Heat transfer fluid flowing through a cooling block removes waste heat generated by photovoltaic cells in the CPV module. The heat transfer fluid then flows through a helical tube illuminated by sunlight that misses the CPV module. Only one fluid system is used to both remove the photovoltaic-cell waste heat and capture high-temperature thermal energy from sunlight. Fluid leaving the hybrid receiver can have a temperature greater than 200° C., and therefore may be used as a source of process heat for a variety of commercial and industrial applications. The hybrid receiver can maintain the photovoltaic cells at temperatures below 110° C. while achieving overall energy conversion efficiencies exceeding 80%.

摘要： A method for concentrated photovoltaic-thermal power generation includes converting a first portion of concentrated sunlight into electrical power when the first portion of concentrated sunlight illuminates an array of photovoltaic cells; and thermally coupling heat generated by the photovoltaic cells into a heat transfer plate. The method also includes cooling the heat transfer plate by flowing heat transfer fluid through an internal path of a cooling block in direct thermal contact with the heat transfer plate; and flowing the heat transfer fluid through a helical tube to absorb thermal energy from a second portion of concentrated sunlight illuminating the helical tube.

摘要： A method for measuring a refractive index of a medium includes exciting a first antisymmetric resonance of a first metasurface, including a first periodic array of resonators formed on a substrate surface, with illumination incident on the first metasurface at a non-normal incidence angle with respect to the substrate surface, the first metasurface including the medium encapsulating the first periodic array of resonators. The method also includes determining a refractive index of the medium from a first amplitude of a first transmitted signal that includes a portion of the illumination transmitted through the first metasurface.

摘要： A spectrum-splitting concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) module utilizes direct fluid cooling of photovoltaic cells in which an array of photovoltaic cells is fully immersed in a flowing heat transfer fluid. Specifically, at least a portion of both the front face and the rear face of each photovoltaic cell comes into direct contact with heat transfer fluid, thereby enhancing coupling of waste heat out of the photovoltaic cells and into the heat transfer fluid. The CPV module is designed to maximize transmission of infrared light not absorbed by the photovoltaic cells, and therefore may be combined with a thermal receiver that captures the transmitted infrared light as part of a hybrid concentrator photovoltaic-thermal system.
