Multistate Luminescent Solar Concentrator “Smart” Windows

Advanced Energy Materials, 2018
AbstractA supertwist liquid crystalline luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) “smart” window is fabricated which can be switched electrically between three states: one designed for increased light absorption and electrical generation (the “dark” state), one for transparency (the “light” state), and one for enhanced haziness (“scattering” state).
