Abstract
Luminescent Solar Concentrators Article 2300107, by Uwe R. Kortshagen and co-worker models luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) based on semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) for semitransparent greenhouse roof panels. The proposed QD LSC roofs can produce clean electricity while increasing the red-light fraction beneficial for plant growth. In some locations, solar power generated by Si QD LSC roofs satisfies the entire greenhouse energy demand and thus enables net-zero energy operation.
