Power-by-light systems allow the power transmission using light instead of electricity. Photovoltaic laser power converters are the key elements of power-by-light systems. Photovoltaic laser power converters exhibit the highest photovoltaic efficiency. Photovoltaic laser power converters target an operation close to the radiative limit.

As to photon recycling, in an idealized cell the only remaining radiative recombination is light that can leave the system. Consequently, lowest recombination and thus highest voltage are achieved when external radiative efficiency (ERE), i.e., the percentage of recombination events that leads to an externally emitted photon, is maximal.
