| Sumario: | Outdoor measurements of luminescent solar concentrators based on polymer optical fibers that are doped with two organic dyes distributed either uniformly or peripherally in the cross section are reported. The output spectra from both types of doped fibers are compared experimentally and theoretically using a Monte-Carlo computational model. The analysis of parameters of luminescent solar concentrators, such as the external photon efficiency and the concentration factor, serves to test our fiber manufacturing procedure and to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of uniform and peripheral dye distributions. Complementary analyses for peripherally doped fibers with optimized characteristics are also included. |
