An ultra-broadband and wide-angle solar absorber based on a Ti/Al 2 O 3 cross-gap staircase structure
Source abstract
Abstract
We propose a solar absorber with a Ti/Al 2 O 3 cross-gap staircase structure. This device achieves an average absorption efficiency of 98.14% over 280–3000 nm, and its weighted average absorption reaches 96.82% under the AM1.5 solar spectrum.
