LUMINESCENT PHOTOVOLTAIC GENERATOR AND WAVEGUIDE TO BE INCORPORATED WITH PHOTOVOLTAIC GENERATOR Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC H01L31/232 B82B1/00 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to luminescent photovoltaic generator (1) and waveguide to be incorporated with said generator. Photovoltaic generator comprises photovoltaic element (4) and waveguide including transparent matrix (2) containing particles of inorganic luminescent material distributed therein and/or inorganic luminescent material located on at least one its side. Waveguide is associated with photovoltaic element (4) so that at using a portion of light emitted from luminescent materials is fed to photovoltaic element (4) to generated voltage therein. Note here that said inorganic luminescent material features, in at least one of UV, visible and IR bands, the absorption line width of 50 nm or larger, emission line width of 20 nm of smaller and Stokes shift of 50 nm or larger.

EFFECT: alternative to or perfection of known photovoltaic generators.
