Abstract

For laser power converters dominated by photon recycling, optimized anti-reflection coatings will achieve efficiencies that exceed the Shockley-Queisser limit. We present designs for such coatings based on efficiency optimization considering both anti-reflection and low hemispherical emissivity.
