contents Hot carrier solar cell is proposed where charge carriers are cooled adiabatically in the charge transport layers adjoining the absorber. The device resembles an ideal thermoelectric converter where thermopower, and therefore also carrier entropy, are maintained constant during cooling from the temperature attained in the absorber to the temperature at contacts.
