Heavily doped semiconductor samples for Thermophotovoltaic Applications
Thermophotovoltaic (TPV) generation of electricity offers fundamental advantages relative to other direct energy conversion techniques (e.g., thermoelectric, thermionic)
The most important is the ability to recuperate the low energy waste heat
