Inverse-designed thin-film photovoltaic receivers utilize aperiodic GaAs/AlAs mirrors and metastructures to achieve coherent perfect absorption. This technology optimizes energy conversion efficiency for laser power beaming, even under non-uniform illumination or atmospheric turbulence. It provides a robust solution for supplying electrical power to critical space assets in remote or challenging environments.
