Recent developments in optics for concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) systems (Invited talk)

• Frontiers in Optics 2007, Optical Society of America Annual Meeting

This invited talk reviews the optical technology associated with recently developed Concentrator Photovoltaic (CPV) systems. These systems use optics to concentrate direct sunlight onto small, high efficiency, multi-junction photovoltaic cells to deliver low-cost, reliable solar energy.
