Hybrid concentrated photovoltaic device comprising: (i) at least one luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) having the shape of a polygonal, circular, or elliptical plate, comprising at least one photoluminescent compound having a spectral range of absorption and a spectral range of emission ; (ii) at least one micrometric or sub-micrometric dielectric photonic structure, optically coupled to said luminescent solar concentrator (LSC), said micrometric or sub-micrometric dielectric photonic structure being able to induce diffusion and/or diffraction of sunlight, preferably diffraction, within said luminescent solar concentrator (LSC), in a spectral range where there is no absorption of said photoluminescent compound; (iii) at least one photovoltaic cell positioned on the outside of at least one side of said luminescent solar concentrator (LSC). The aforementioned hybrid concentrated photovoltaic device may advantageously be incorporated in buildings and dwelling (for example, in photovoltaic windows, both indoor and outdoor). Moreover, said hybrid concentrated photovoltaic device may also be used advantageously as a functional element in urban and transport contexts (for example, in photovoltaic noise barriers, in photovoltaic wind breaks).

Abstract
Hybrid concentrated photovoltaic device comprising: (i) at least one luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) having the shape of a polygonal, circular, or elliptical plate, comprising at least one photoluminescent compound having a spectral range of absorption and a spectral range of emission ; (ii) at least one micrometric or sub-micrometric dielectric photonic structure, optically coupled to said luminescent solar concentrator (LSC), said micrometric or sub-micrometric dielectric photonic structure being able to induce diffusion and/or diffraction of sunlight, preferably diffraction, within said luminescent solar concentrator (LSC), in a spectral range where there is no absorption of said photoluminescent compound; (iii) at least one photovoltaic cell positioned on the outside of at least one side of said luminescent solar concentrator (LSC). The aforementioned hybrid concentrated photovoltaic device may advantageously be incorporated in buildings and dwelling (for example, in photovoltaic windows, both indoor and outdoor). Moreover, said hybrid concentrated photovoltaic device may also be used advantageously as a functional element in urban and transport contexts (for example, in photovoltaic noise barriers, in photovoltaic wind breaks).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
