Abstract: The system captures and concentrates sunlight for transmission to interior spaces or to a PV system. A solar collector uses arrayed refractive lenses (22), opposing concave focusing mirrors (88), and a movable coupling sheet (30) forming part of a lightguide. The lenses and mirrors have an asymmetric shape, such as having aspect ratios of 3:4 or 1:2, so as to have an asymmetric aperture to better receive light at the different ranges of angles of the sun's rays over the course of a year. The long axis of the apertures is generally oriented in an East-West. The movable sheet contains small angled mirrors (32), and the sheet is translated to position the angled mirrors at the focal points of the sunlight for maximum deflection of the sunlight to an output of the collection system. A position sensor provides feedback regarding the position of the angled mirrors relative to the focal points.

Abstract: A system for providing a solar harvesting building envelope is disclosed. The system includes a plurality of solar harvesting apparatus configured to be installed as or on a building envelope in manner like that of traditional shingles or siding. The apparatus includes a frame having a photovoltaic end wall, as well as reflective base and side walls. A translucent, wedge- shaped body layer is positioned on the frame. A luminescent species film is positioned at and substantially parallel to a base of the wedge-shaped body layer, such that the luminescent species film is positioned at an angle relative to the photovoltaic end wall. Light incident on the wedge- shaped body layer is concentrated towards the photovoltaic end wall, such as through absorption and re-emission along with scattering by the luminescent species film and internal reflection by the wedge-shaped body layer and the reflective base and side walls of the frame. A plurality of apparatus may be wired together to create the building envelope, which has the added advantage of substantially eliminating shading losses of traditional solar harvesting systems.

Abstract: : A radiation concentrator incorporating a main radiation concentrator (160) and an auxiliary radiation concentrator (161) that concentrates the incident radiation to the common receiver (3) is presented. The primary reflector (1) of the main concentrator (160) consists of two confocal parabolic reflectors (5a & 5b) on either side of the axial plane in such a way that their parabolic axes points at the centers of the diagonally opposite halves of the radiation source. The main concentrator (160) is configured in such a way that a part of the radiation reflected from every point on its primary reflector (1) is absorbed by the receiver (3) directly and its secondary reflector (2) reflects the other part of the radiation to the receiver (3). The auxiliary concentrator (161) concentrates a substantial part of the incident radiation, which would have been blocked by the secondary reflector (2), to the receiver (3).
