Abstract

Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) are rapidly gaining momentum in building integrated photovoltaics. The use of cycloparaphenylenes (CPPs) as large Stokes shift emitters enables the preparation of nearly transparent, large area LSC devices that remain unaffected by reabsorption losses.
