  • the solar radiation impinging on the third hologram structure covered by the second optical device 90 in the second spectral range 35 is transmitted by the third hologram structure and impinges on the heat conductor plate 75 present on the side of the second optical device 90 facing away from the sun.
  • the incident solar radiation in the second spectral range 35 does not reach the solar cell 25 and can not be converted into heat by it.
  • overheating of the solar cell 25 is avoided and its working temperature is maintained in a range in which the solar cell 25 efficiently converts solar energy into electric power.
  • the efficiency and the life of the solar cell 25 are increased.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif photovoltaïque destiné à convertir directement l'énergie solaire en énergie électrique, ce dispositif comportant au moins une cellule solaire à laquelle est associé au moins un premier élément optique qui dévie les rayons solaires incidents, dans un premier domaine spectral pouvant être converti en énergie électrique par la cellule solaire, vers la cellule solaire disposée sur un côté du premier élément optique lequel dévie les rayons solaires incidents, dans un deuxième domaine spectral ne pouvant pas être converti en énergie électrique par la cellule solaire, hors de la surface de la cellule solaire, vers une cible exempte de cellules solaires.
