Abstract

See full text

The apparatus and methods of the present disclosure in a broad aspect provide novel devices for producing electricity from light. These apparatus include at least one photon-absorbing semiconductor material, at least one cover layer located above the at least one photon-absorbing material, and a down-conversion material interposed between at least two opposing reflective coatings. The reflective coatings enhance down-conversion of photons to lower energy photons which pass through cover layers to be used by a photon-absorbing semiconductor layer to produce electricity.
