The studies dealing with luminescent materials for semiconductor lighting are surveyed. The
luminescent materials are classified in terms of the class of chemical compounds they …

Luminescent down-shifting (LDS) is a purely optical method to improve the short-wavelength
response of photovoltaics by red-shifting the incident solar spectrum. This work is the first to …

Core‐shell quantum dots CdSe/ZnS and lumogen yellow organic dye are characterized by
their inclusion in luminescent downshifting (LDS) layers. Layers were deposited on top of …

Organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) have a shorter working lifespan and lower power
conversion efficiency if compared to traditional silicon-based solar cells. Intending to …

The short wavelength photons (below 500 nm) of the solar spectrum are under-utilized in
multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si) solar modules because of their high surface recombination …

In this investigation, plasmonic coupling between luminescent species (lumogen yellow, and
silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) has been exploited to produce significant enhancement in …

Silver (Ag) plasmonic structures on the surface of Сe and Yb co-doped yttrium aluminium
garnet fluorescent epitaxial films were prepared by the magnetron sputtering technique. The …

Four-dimensional printing with embedded photoluminescence is emerging as an exciting
area in additive manufacturing. Slim polymer films patterned with three-dimensional lattices …

Dye-sensitized solar cells produce saturation of electrons and holes when exposed to high-
intensity UV photons. These photon energies do not match the bandgap of the …
