    摘要: A transparent planar heating film includes metal nanoparticles that are disposed on at least a portion of a transparent adhesive film; and a transparent electrode that is completely covered by the transparent adhesive film and has a conductive surface that is laminated to and in direct contact with the metal nanoparticles via the transparent adhesive film. The heating temperature of the transparent planar heating film is a maximum of at least two times higher at the same power consumption than that of conventional planar heating films. Both the transparent adhesive film and the transparent electrode may be flexible so that the transparent planar heating film is flexible. In the transparent planar heating film, the metal nanoparticles may be bonded to desired locations on the conductive surface of the transparent electrode enabling selective heating.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a transparent luminescent solar concentrator (LSC). The LSC according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a polymer resin panel uniformly doped with phosphors. Accordingly, it is possible to greatly improve the transmittance and optical haze compared to the existing LSC manufactured by physically mixing or coating phosphors on the front side of the panel. In addition, it is possible to greatly improve the light collection efficiency of the LSC through the arrangement structure of the solar cells embedded in the polymer resin panel. The polymer resin panel according to an embodiment may be manufactured with flexibility or rigidity according to the purpose of use, and thus can be widely applied to curved structures, for example, building windows, automobile glasses and greenhouse roofs.
