Abstract: A method includes positioning a substrate at an initial position. The method also includes placing a filter onto the substrate. The filter is configured with a first set of layers with a maximized index and a second set of layers with a maximized index. The index for the first set of layers is greater than the index for the second set of layers. The filter has a reduced/minimal dependence on an angle of incidence (AOI) and reduced/minimal thermal dependence. The filter transmits signal photons onto a photon detector, rejects ambient photons, and increases signal-to-noise ratio of the photon detector.

Abstract: A system can comprise a first window pane configured at a first position in a semitransparent and uniform structure. The system can also include a first substrate configured with a first transparent conductive oxide (TCO) contact layer, a hole transport (HTL) layer and a first perovskite layer, wherein the first TCO contact layer, the HTL layer, and first perovskite layer are positioned at a set distance away from the first window pane in the semitransparent and uniform structure. The HTL layer includes oxides, or iodides, or organic materials. Further, the system can include a second substrate directly opposite to the first substrate, and configured with a second TCO contact layer, an electron transport (ETL) layer, and a second perovskite layer, wherein the first perovskite layer and the second perovskite layer are fused together in the semitransparent and uniform structure. The ETL layer includes oxides or organic materials.
