چکیده
Luminescent Solar Soncentrators In article number 2210357, Sung-Min Lee, Seungwoo Hyo Jin Kim, and co-workers present strategically designed luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) that can enhance the photovoltaic output power of flexible double-junction III-V cells. The optimal LSC configuration augments balanced photocurrents subcells, thereby reporting up to a 50% increase in their without noticeable cost raises.

Nanostructured, luminescent solar concentrators
Luminescent solar concentrators1 (LSCs), a class of solar-energyharvesting devices, operate slightly differently from traditional photovoltaic (PV) solar cells. Irrespective of the exact nature of the active materials used for their manufacturing, solar cells generate electrical carriers and, hence, a photocurrent. In contrast, LSCs absorb solar photons and re-emit them over a narrow band at lo...

متن کاملLuminescent solar concentrators and the reabsorption problem.
The problem of reabsorption in luminescent solar concentrators (LSC) is discussed. A mathematical development is presented which enables the LSC gain to be calculated based on the optical properties of the materials and a random walk formalism. Two- and three-dimensional analyses are used. A detailed set of calculations for a common dye (rhodamine 6G) is used to examine the practicality of empl...
متن کاملLosses in luminescent solar concentrators unveiled
A novel experimental method is presented to determine the optical efficiency and the loss channels of a luminescent solar concentrator (LSC). Despite strong promise, LSCs have not yet reached their full potential due to various mechanisms affecting the device's optical efficiency. Among those loss channels, escape cone and non-unity quantum yield losses are generally the most dominant. To furth...
متن کاملSpectral Converters and Luminescent Solar Concentrators
In this paper we present a comprehensive theoretical description of molecular spectral converters in the specific context of Luminescent Solar Concentrators (LSCs). The theoretical model is an extension to a three-level system interacting with a solar radiation bath of the standard quantum theory of atomic radiative processes. We derive the equilibrium equations of the conversion process and pr...
