(A) Electrical power output as a function of chemical input power of μTPV system designs with two types of emitters: Si greybody in blue and optimized 1D metallodielectric PhC in red. (B) Efficiency as a function of microreactor temperature for μTPV system designs with two types of emitters: Si greybody in blue, and optimized 1D metallodielectric PhC in red. Note that for a constant input power, the operating temperature of the plain emitter is lower than that of the 1D PhC. For example, the input power of the plain emitter at 700 °C corresponds to that of the 1D PhC at 830 °C.
