Core-shell quantum dots CdSe/ZnS and lumogen yellow organic dye are characterized by their inclusion in luminescent downshifting (LDS) layers. Layers were deposited on top of crystalline silicon cell (c-Si), synthesized solar (DSSC), cadmium telluride (CdTe) minimodules. External efficiency measurements for the cell/LDS devices discussed. Experimental results compared with an optical model developed Rothemund, 2014.

Quantum Dot Solar Concentrators (QDSCs) are static, non-imaging concentrators which do not require expensive solar tracking and concentrate both direct diffuse light. Optical efficiencies (&eta;<sub>opt</sub>) concentration ratios (C) of a single plate QDSC were calculated by Monte-Carlo ray-trace modelling. Consideration reflection, refraction, quantum dot (QD) photon emission absorption light attenuation in the device matrix included analysis. In this paper, effect placing plane reflectors...

The quantum dot solar concentrator optical efficiency is undermined by the parameters of re-absorption, scattering, and escape cone losses. These losses can be address through enhancing (QDs) absorption emission. This have been achieved plasmonic coupling between QDs gold nanoparticles (Au NPs). composite various concertation Au NPs were studied. spacing controlled concentration distribution both QD in composite, it showed a significant increase which more pronounced for higher spectral...
