OSTI ID:6565724
A solar energy collector is disclosed comprising a collector plate having a solar energy absorbing surface; a first network of intersecting walls disposed on said collector plate and forming a plurality of cavities thereon; and, a second network of three-dimensional members disposed on said first network, said three-dimensional members having reflective surfaces approximately parallel to said collector plate and reflective surfaces in two other dimensions, said three-dimensional members further defining apertures in each of said cavities for admitting incident solar radiation to said cavities. The collector utilizes the absorption advantages of a black body, while surpassing the emission characteristics of a selective surface.
