DISTRIBUTED COAX PHOTOVOLTAIC DEVICE

摘要

A photovoltaic device includes a plurality of photovoltaic cells. Each photovoltaic cell of the plurality of photovoltaic cells includes a first electrode, a second electrode which is shared with at least one adjacent photovoltaic cell, and a photovoltaic material located between and in electrical contact with the first and the second electrodes. A thickness of the second electrode in a direction from one photovoltaic cell to an adjacent photovoltaic cell is less than an optical skin depth of the second electrode material, and a separation between first electrodes of adjacent photovoltaic cells is less than a peak wavelength of incident radiation.
