Design and realization of transparent solar modules based on luminescent solar concentrators integrating nanostructured photonic crystals
(John Wiley & Sons, 2015)
Herein, we present a prototype of a photovoltaic module that combines a luminescent solar concentrator integrating one-dimensional photonic crystals and in-plane CuInGaSe2 (CIGS) solar cells. Highly uniform and wide-area ...

Efficient bifacial dye-sensitized solar cells through disorder by design
(Royal Society of Chemistry (Great Britain), 2016)
Herein we realize an optical design that optimizes the performance of bifacial solar cells without modifying any of the usually employed components. In order to do so, dielectric scatterers of controlled size and shape ...
