A WAVEGUIDE FOR CONCENTRATED SOLAR COLLECTORS AND A SOLAR COLLECTOR THEREOF

摘要

The present invention relates to a waveguide for solar collectors and a solar collector employing such a waveguide to be used for concentrated solar power generation. In scope of this invention, a waveguide having an array of directing surfaces is developed, such that the waveguide and the array of directing surfaces lie on a plane nonparallel to the direction of incident light. Moreover, a solar collector having an array of concentrator cells and a waveguide lying on a plane nonparallel to the direction of solar radiation from said array of concentrator cells is developed.
