Abstract
Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) can be used as large-area sunlight collectors, which show great potential in the application of building-integrated photovoltaic areas. Achieving highly efficient LSCs requires the suppression of reabsorption losses while maintaining a high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and broad absorption. Perovskites as the superstar fluorophores have recently emerged as candidates for large-area LSCs. However, highly emissive perovskites with a large Stokes shift and broad absorption have not been obtained up to now. Here, we devised a facile synthetic route to obtain Mn-doped multiple quantum well (MQW) Br-based perovskites. The Br-based perovskite host ensures broad absorption. Efficient energy transfer from the exciton to the Mn dopant produces a large Stokes shift and high PLQY simultaneously. By further coating the perovskites with Al2O3, the stability and PLQY are greatly elevated. A large area of liquid LSC (40 cm × 40 cm × 0.5 cm) is fabricated, which possesses an internal quantum efficiency (ηint) of 47% and an optical conversion efficiency (ηopt) reaching 11 ± 1%, which shows the highest value for large-area LSCs.
