Abstract
Proposed design aims to make an efficient solar power system without use of expensive coatings. Now a days solar cells are relatively expensive and does not promise high power output density. The extra cost arises from the coatings used to trap photons falling on solar cells. The main problem with solar cells is that the photons of lower wavelength or higher energies get reflected by solar panels, these photons contains most of the available useful energy of solar spectrum. Every wavelength penetrates to certain depth of solar penal and there is always a fraction of probability of photon to get absorbed. Main aim of research in to design a solar power system that efficiently trap the photons of all wavelength and also to increase the probability of interaction of photon to nearly unity. We all know about a perfect blackbody. We need to do is to create a black body and merge it with a solar cell so that all the radiation falling on it is absorbed and never emitted back. Design consist of creating a hollow cavity black body with inner surface coated with solar cells to act as a radiation absorbing layer.
