Luminescent solar concentrators based on melt-spun polymer optical fibers

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2020
Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) collect incoming sunlight and direct it to a smaller-area photovoltaic cell. In the presented work, form factor and illumination angle-dependent performance of LSCs consisting of bi-component melt-spun fibers is ...

Measurements of stress-optic coefficient in polymer optical fibers [PDF]

open access: yesOptics Letters, 2010
We have systematically measured the differential stress-optic coefficient, DeltaC, in a number of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) fibers drawn with different stress, ranging from 2 up to 27 MPa. DeltaC was determined in transverse illumination by measuring the dependence of birefringence on additional axial stress applied to the fiber.

Annular Cavity Design for Photoluminescent Polymer Optical Fiber Sensors

open access: yesSensors, 2020
We present optimization results on the design of a polymer optical fiber single point sensor suitable for photoluminescence-based sensing. The single point sensing design consists of one or two annular cavities, separated by a small distance, milled into
