“…The thermal stability of these tandem absorber-reflector films was studied, and several absorbers survived cumulative heating periods of 500 h in vacuum up to the maximum test temperature, 700°C [191]. The addition of a thin Al 2 O 3 diffusion barrier improved the stability in air from 125°C to 175°C [192]. The stability of the tandem films at high temperatures in vacuum was limited to the agglomeration of the metal reflective film, for silver about 350°C.…”

“…A clear area, where further improvements can be realized, is in the use of selective absorber coatings. Currently, available coating materials are still expensive, subject to degradation and not as efficient as their potential suggests [29][30][31][32]. Therefore, the development of sunlight absorbers with rational structure designs has become a popular research topic, because it has remarkable potential to improve efficiency.…”
