MICROSTRUCTURED WAVELENGTH CONVERSION FILMS FOR ENHANCED SOLAR HARVESTING EFFICIENCY

摘要

Described herein are microstructured wavelength conversion films for enhanced solar harvesting efficiency of photovoltaic devices or solar cells. The microstructured wavelength conversion film comprises a luminescent medium that is provided with a microstructured surface, where the luminescent medium and the microstructured surface can be combined into a single layer or made up of two or more separate layers. A photovoltaic module which utilizes the medium to improve the performance of photovoltaic devices or solar cells is also provided, along with a method of improving a solar cell or photovoltaic device by utilizing the microstructured wavelength conversion film.
