Research Abstract |
Thermophotovoltaic system generates electricity by applying an infrared radiation from a heated emitter to TPV cell. Emitters are required to radiate infrared having wave lengths of 1-2 micro meters. Previous studies used Al2O3-ER2O3 (ER: rare earth elements) eutectic systems. In these systems, when the composition departs from the eutectic composition, inhomogeneous primary crystals form. This study succeeded to fabricate emitters by a crystallization of amorphous materials. This method enabled to form a structure in which two components homogeneously entangle each other, even when the composition departs from the eutectic composition. Using this method, expensive rare earth could be reduced without deteriorating the generation performance. While the main method to form amorphous materials was rapid quenching, wet methods were also developed. These methods could fabricate amorphous materials with high productivity.
