Photoluminescence: Applications

Photoluminescence: Applications

Photoluminescence offers a wide range of applications due to its inherent sensitivity and selectivity. This technique allows for both direct and indirect analyses of the analyte. Direct quantitative analysis is possible when the analyte exhibits a favorable quantum yield for fluorescence or phosphorescence. However, an indirect analysis may be feasible if the analyte is not fluorescent or phosphorescent, or if the quantum yield is unfavorable. Indirect methods include reacting the analyte with...

Background:

Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) require efficient light capture using both transparent and opaque modules.
Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) offer a pathway to enhance solar energy harvesting.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop novel haze-assisted luminescent solar concentrators (HALSCs) integrating scattering and luminescence for improved BIPV performance.
To investigate the impact of multilayer haze engineering on light emission and energy conversion.

Main Methods:

Fabrication of multilayer HALSCs using polymer-liquid crystal composites with embedded dyes and Mie scattering centers.
Utilizing Monte Carlo ray-tracing simulations and experimental validation.
Coupling HALSCs with crystalline silicon solar cells to measure photocurrent enhancement.

Main Results:

Multilayer HALSCs demonstrate enhanced side-guided emission through repeated scattering.
Edge-emitted intensity shows a thickness-dependent saturation, optimized by segmentation into thinner layers.
Triple-layer HALSCs nearly doubled photocurrent output compared to transparent devices.

Conclusions:

Opacity-luminescence coupling and multilayer haze engineering are effective design principles for advanced BIPVs.
HALSCs present a practical platform for next-generation optical energy management systems.
