Performance of a photovoltaic/thermoelectric generator hybrid system with a beam splitter under maximum permissible operating conditions

A. A. Kandil et al.

Summary: Using a beam-splitting system can enhance electricity generation by harnessing full-spectrum solar radiation. An experimental and theoretical study was conducted to evaluate the performance of two configurations: a standalone photovoltaic system and a photovoltaic/thermoelectric generator hybrid system with a beam-splitting configuration. The results show that the hybrid system significantly improves the power output compared to the standalone system.

Summary: Photovoltaic cells are commonly used to convert solar radiation into electrical power, but they are most efficient in the visible light region. Spectral beam splitting has potential for efficient solar energy conversion, but has not yet reached commercial level. Recent advancements in beam-splitting systems based on various technologies are described, along with discussions on hybrid applications and considerations for system efficiency. Despite cost increases, the improved energy conversion efficiency and controlled wavelengths make spectral beam splitting a promising option for future practical applications.

Atomic Faraday beam splitter for light generated from pump-degenerate four-wave mixing in a hollow-core photonic crystal fiber

Ioannis Caltzidis et al.

Summary: The atomic Faraday dichroic beam splitter separates signal and idler fields from pump degenerate four-wave mixing in an atomic source by rotating the plane of polarization of one mode 90° with respect to the other, achieving significant suppression and high transmission rates in the outputs.
