  • Title: Impact of curvature on the optimal configuration of flexible luminescent solar concentrators.
    Author: Portnoi M, Sol C, Tummeltshammer C, Papakonstantinou I.
    Journal: Opt Lett; 2017 Jul 15; 42(14):2695-2698. PubMed ID: 28708146.
    Abstract:
    Flexible luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) could deliver integrated photovoltaics in all aspects of our lives, from architecture to wearable electronics. We present and experimentally verify a model for the optimization of the external optical efficiency of LSCs under varying degrees of curvature. We demonstrate differences between the optimization of flat and bent LSCs, showing that optimal fluorophore concentrations can differ by a factor of two.
