A thermophotovoltaic generator incorporating a two-stage combustor for providing heat to a thermophotovoltaic cell. Combustor parts include a partial oxidation reactor, which functions catalytically to convert a hydrocarbon fuel and a first supply of an oxidant into a gaseous partial oxidation product; and further include downstream thereof, a deep oxidation reactor including a premixer plenum fluidly connected to a heat spreader comprising a porous matrix, such as a ceramic foam. Functionally, the deep oxidation reactor converts the gaseous partial oxidation product and a second supply of oxidant into complete combustion products. Heat produced by the two-stage combustor generates radiative energy from a photon emitter, which is directly converted to electricity in a photovoltaic diode cell.

The present invention relates to coating compositions and methods of forming catalyst-containing coatings on substrates for catalytic heater devices. The coatings are formed by a chemical grafting method, which chemically bonds the coating (and catalysts contained therein) to the substrate. The resulting coatings have high temperature resistance and inhibit or prevent catalyst migration to the substrate, thereby maintaining catalytic activity and desired temperatures over prolonged use.
