Enhanced luminescent solar concentrator efficiency by Foster resonance energy transfer in a tunable six-dye absorber

Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) collect and concentrate the solar irra-diation to generate electricity through the photovoltaic effect. LSCs haveattracted attention due to their concentration factors, their ability to providewavelength-to-bandgap matched photons, and because of their high fun...
