Abstract:
A dye-labeled polymer includes a fluorescent dye moiety and a polymer moiety, wherein the fluorescent dye moiety and the polymer moiety are connected through a chemical bond.A luminescent solar collector is provided. The luminescent solar collector includes: a waveguide; a wavelength conversion material disposed on the waveguide, wherein the wavelength conversion material includes 0-95 parts by weight of a polymer material; and 5-100 parts by weight of the previously described dye-labeled polymer, wherein the polymer material is different from the dye-labeled polymer.A fluorescent column embedded solar collector includes: a waveguide; and at least one fluorescent column embedded in the waveguide, wherein the fluorescent column contains a wavelength conversion material.
