“…[14][15][16][17] As a promising spectral photon management strategy, luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) are remarkably desirable as they have several advantages: comparatively inexpensive fabrication costs, lightness, and amenability to large-scale production, supplemented with design flexibility in size, shape, formation, configuration, and spectral transparency. [15,18,19] However, this type of SSS includes several intrinsic loss mechanisms and has yet to reach widescale commercialization. The primary loss mechanisms in LSCs are emission losses, which occur for photons emitted from luminescent dyes with angles less than the critical angle [%42°for a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) waveguide panel].…”
