Toward a High‐Efficient Utilization of Solar Radiation by Quad‐Band Solar Spectral Splitting

Abstract

The promising quad-band solar spectral splitter incorporates the properties of the optical filter and the spectrally selective solar thermal absorber can direct PV band to PV modules and absorb thermal band energy for thermal process with low thermal losses. It provides a new strategy for spectral splitting and offers potential ways for hybrid PVT system design.
