Peykov D, Yeng Y, Celanovic I, Joannopoulos J, Schuh C
Opt Express . 2015 May; 23(8):9979-93. PMID: 25969039
Using morphological and optical simulations of 1D tantalum photonic crystals at 1200K, surface diffusion was determined to gradually reduce the efficiency of selective emitters. This was attributed to shifting resonance...

Yeng Y, Chan W, Rinnerbauer V, Stelmakh V, Senkevich J, Joannopoulos J, et al.
Opt Express . 2015 Apr; 23(3):A157-68. PMID: 25836245
We report the design, optimization, and experimental results of large area commercial silicon solar cell based thermophotovoltaic (TPV) energy conversion systems. Using global non-linear optimization tools, we demonstrate theoretically a...

Yeng Y, Chou J, Rinnerbauer V, Shen Y, Kim S, Joannopoulos J, et al.
Opt Express . 2014 Oct; 22(18):21711-8. PMID: 25321547
We report the design of dielectric-filled anti-reflection coated (ARC) two-dimensional (2D) metallic photonic crystals (MPhCs) capable of omnidirectional, polarization insensitive, wavelength selective emission/absorption. Using non-linear global optimization methods, optimized hafnium...

Chou J, Yeng Y, Lee Y, Lenert A, Rinnerbauer V, Celanovic I, et al.
Adv Mater . 2014 Sep; 26(47):8041-5. PMID: 25228299
A metallic dielectric photonic crystal with solar broadband, omni-directional, and tunable selective absorption with high temperature stable (1000 °C, 24 hrs) properties is fabricated on a 6" silicon wafer. The...

Chou J, Yeng Y, Lenert A, Rinnerbauer V, Celanovic I, Soljacic M, et al.
Opt Express . 2014 Jun; 22 Suppl 1:A144-54. PMID: 24921991
The design and simulation of a wide angle, spectrally selective absorber/emitter metallic photonic crystal (MPhC) is presented. By using dielectric filled cavities, the angular, spectrally selective absorption/emission of the MPhC...

Yeng Y, Chan W, Rinnerbauer V, Joannopoulos J, Soljacic M, Celanovic I
Opt Express . 2014 Feb; 21 Suppl 6:A1035-51. PMID: 24514924
One of the keys towards high efficiency thermophotovoltaic (TPV) energy conversion systems lies in spectral control. Here, we present detailed performance predictions of realistic TPV systems incorporating experimentally demonstrated advanced...

Rinnerbauer V, Yeng Y, Chan W, Senkevich J, Joannopoulos J, Soljacic M, et al.
Opt Express . 2013 May; 21(9):11482-91. PMID: 23670005
We present the results of extensive characterization of selective emitters at high temperatures, including thermal emission measurements and thermal stability testing at 1000 °C for 1h and 900 °C for...

Yeng Y, Ghebrebrhan M, Bermel P, Chan W, Joannopoulos J, Soljacic M, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2012 Feb; 109(7):2280-5. PMID: 22308448
The nascent field of high-temperature nanophotonics could potentially enable many important solid-state energy conversion applications, such as thermophotovoltaic energy generation, selective solar absorption, and selective emission of light. However, special...

Bermel P, Ghebrebrhan M, Harradon M, Yeng Y, Celanovic I, Joannopoulos J, et al.
Nanoscale Res Lett . 2011 Oct; 6(1):549. PMID: 21978732
Selective solar absorbers generally have limited effectiveness in unconcentrated sunlight, because of reradiation losses over a broad range of wavelengths and angles. However, metamaterials offer the potential to limit radiation...

Bermel P, Ghebrebrhan M, Chan W, Yeng Y, Araghchini M, Hamam R, et al.
Opt Express . 2010 Dec; 18 Suppl 3:A314-34. PMID: 21165063
Despite their great promise, small experimental thermophotovoltaic (TPV) systems at 1000 K generally exhibit extremely low power conversion efficiencies (approximately 1%), due to heat losses such as thermal emission of...
