Can luminescent solar concentrators be used for building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV)?
This review examines the application of luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) for building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), both in terms of opaque façade elements and as semi-transparent windows. Many luminophores have been developed for LSC applications, and their efficiencies examined in lab-scale (<25 cm 2) devices.
Can luminescence mapping be used to characterize solar PV cells and modules?
When characterizing solar PV cells and modules, it might be useful to combine both EL and PL. Luminescence mapping can be used to determine the distribution of the most important solar cell parameters and identify loss mechanisms.
How are luminescence measurements used in the PV industry?
Section 3 describes in detail how luminescence (photo- and electroluminescence) measurements are applied in the complete value chain of the PV industry, from ingot, to wafer, to device, to module, to complete infield systems. Section 4 briefly describes how luminescence is also relevant for emerging thin-film photovoltaic technologies.
Could luminescent solar concentrators be a solution to zero-energy office buildings?
