The research team’s semi-transparent solar concentrator can be directly coated onto standard window glass. It uses liquid crystal films to reflect and guide circularly-polarized sunlight to solar ...
Researchers created transparent solar windows that capture sunlight at the edges, cutting PV cell needs while keeping buildings visually unchanged. The device, called a cholesteric unidirectional ...
Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs), which balance transparency with photovoltaic capabilities, are emerging as pivotal solutions in the quest for self-sufficient green energy. Using ...
