Radioisotope Thermophotovoltaic Generator Design and Performance Estimates for Terrestrial Applications

This work provides the design methods and performance estimates of the radioisotope thermophotovoltaic system (RTPV) for terrestrial applications. The modeling is based on an experimentally tested prototype using two-dimensional high temperature photonic crystal to realize spectral control. The desi...
