Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) have been a key focus of research since their inception in the 1970s, aiming to enhance solar energy capture by converting and concentrating sunlight onto photovoltaic (PV) cells. Unlike traditional solar concentrators that rely on mirrors and lenses, LSCs can efficiently harvest diffuse light and have been used in applications like building-integrated phot
