Spectrally selective solar absorbers (SSAs), harvesting sunlight into heat, are the key to the concentrated solar thermal systems. Current SSAs designs using photonic crystals, metamaterials, or cermets are either cost-inefficient or have limited applicability due to complicated nanofabrication methods and poor thermal stability at high temperatures. We present a scalable-manufactured blackbody cavity solar absorber design with nearly ideal properties. The unity solar absorptivity and nearly zero infrared emissivity allow for a stagnation temperature of 880C under 10 suns. The performance surpasses those state-of-the-art SSAs manufactured by nanofabrication methods. This design relies on traditional fabricating methods, such as machining, casting, and polishing. This makes it easy for large-scale industrial applications, and the blackbody cavity feature enables its fast-integration to existing concentrated solar thermal systems.

Titanium diboride (TiB2) is a low-density refractory material belonging to the family of ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTCs). This paper reports on the production and microstructural and optical characterization of nearly fully dense TiB2, with p
articular interest to its potential utilization as novel thermal solar absorber. Monolithic bulk samples are produced starting from elemental reactants by a two-step method consisting of the Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis (SHS) followed by the Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) of the resulting powders. The surface of obtained samples has-been characterized from the microstructural and topological points of view. The hemispherical reflectance spectrum has been measured from 0.3 to 15 um wavelength, to evaluate the potential of this material as solar absorber for future concentrating solar plants.
It is of significance to incorporate spectral selectivity technology into solar thermal engineering, especially at high operational temperatures. This work demonstrates spectrally selective solar absorbers made of multilayer tungsten, silica, and alu
mina thin films that are angular insensitive and polarization-independent. An overall absorptance of 88.1% at solar irradiance wavelength, a low emittance of 7.0% at infrared thermal wavelength, and a high solar to heat efficiency of 79.9% are identified. Additionally, it shows the annealed samples maintain an extremely high absorption in solar radiation regime over at least 600 C and the solar absorbers after thermal annealing at 800 C still work well in a CSP system with an even high concentration factor of over 100.
Various thin-film I$_2$-II-IV-VI$_4$ photovoltaic absorbers derived from kesterite Cu$_2$ZnSn(S,Se)$_4$ have been synthesized, characterized, and theoretically investigated in the past few years. The availability of this homogeneous materials dataset
is an opportunity to examine trends in their defect properties and identify criteria to find new defect-tolerant materials in this vast chemical space. We find that substitutions on the Zn site lead to a smooth decrease in band tailing as the ionic radius of the substituting cation increases. Unfortunately, this substitution strategy does not ensure the suppression of deeper defects and non-radiative recombination. Trends across the full dataset suggest that Gaussian and Urbach band tails in kesterite-inspired semiconductors are two separate phenomena caused by two different antisite defect types. Deep Urbach tails are correlated with the calculated band gap narrowing caused by the (2I$_mathrm{II}$+IV$_mathrm{II}$) defect cluster. Shallow Gaussian tails are correlated with the energy difference between the kesterite and stannite polymorphs, which points to the role of (I$_mathrm{II}$+II$_mathrm{I}$) defect clusters involving Group IB and Group IIB atoms swapping across textit{different} cation planes. This finding can explain why textit{in-plane} cation disorder and band tailing are uncorrelated in kesterites. Our results provide quantitative criteria for discovering new kesterite-inspired photovoltaic materials with low band tailing.
Majority and minority carrier properties such as type, density and mobility represent fundamental yet difficult to access parameters governing semiconductor device performance, most notably solar cells. Obtaining this information simultaneously under
light illumination would unlock many critical parameters such as recombination lifetime, recombination coefficient, and diffusion length; while deeply interesting for optoelectronic devices, this goal has remained elusive. We demonstrate here a new carrier-resolved photo-Hall technique that rests on a new identity relating hole-electron mobility difference ($Deltamu$), Hall coefficient ($h$), and conductivity ($sigma$): $Deltamu=(2+dln h/dln sigma),h,sigma$, and a rotating parallel dipole line ac-field Hall system with Fourier/lock-in detection for clean Hall signal measurement. We successfully apply this technique to recent world-record-quality perovskite and kesterite films and map the results against varying light intensities, demonstrating unprecedented simultaneous access to the above-mentioned parameters.
Organic electrochemical transistors offer powerful functionalities for biosensors and neuroinspired electronics, with still much to understand on the time dependent behavior of this electrochemical device. Here, we report on distributed element model
ing of the impedance of such microfabricated device, systematically performed under a large concentration variation for KCl(aq) and CaCl2(aq). We propose a new model which takes into account three main deviations to ideality, that were systematically observed, caused by both the materials and the device complexity, over large frequency range (1 Hz to 1 MHz). More than introducing more freedom degree, the introduction of these non redundant parameters and the study of their behaviors as function of the electrolyte concentration and applied voltage give a more detailed picture of the OECT working principles. This optimized model can be further useful for improving OECT performances in many applications (e.g. biosensors, neuroinspired devices) and circuit simulations.
