AI overview

Updated

NovaSolix develops rectenna-based solar devices that convert sunlight to electricity using nanoscale carbon nanotube antenna arrays instead of conventional photovoltaic junctions. Because the antennas are sized to the wavelengths of sunlight, the device harvests energy across the spectrum from infrared to ultraviolet rather than the narrow band a PV cell captures. The company was founded in 2015 in Newark, California and states it holds over 40 granted and pending patents. Its process is designed to run on standard semiconductor fabrication equipment.

What sets it apart

Replaces the photovoltaic junction with a nanoscale antenna-and-rectifier array, which the company says captures 2.5x more of the solar spectrum, delivers up to 4x the power density of conventional solar (400 W/m2 vs 195 W/m2), and works in low light and at steep incidence angles.

Carbon nanotube rectenna solar array

Solar energy hardware

A solar energy device built from arrays of carbon nanotube antennas paired with rectifiers, which convert incident solar radiation directly into electrical output across ultraviolet through infrared wavelengths.

  • Carbon nanotube antennas matched to nanoscale wavelengths of sunlight
  • Spectral capture from ultraviolet through infrared, ~2.5x conventional solar
  • Power density up to 400 W/m2 versus ~195 W/m2 for conventional panels
  • Theoretical efficiency of 80-90% versus 33-34% for conventional photovoltaics
