Radiative thermal escape in intermediate band solar cells

To achieve high efficiency, the intermediate band (IB) solar cell must generate photocurrent from sub-bandgap photons at a voltage higher than that of a single contributing sub-bandgap photon. To achieve the latter, it is necessary that the IB levels be properly isolated from the valence and conduct...
