摘      要：The demand for green energy is growing these days as a result of the world energy crisis,as well as global *** cells are in great interest due to the fact that solar energy can be easily converted to electricity,if the photovoltaic cell’s cost can be *** of the methods to make low-cost energy is using Luminescent solar *** have the advantage of directly integrating solar cells to dense urban areas as well as *** materials and waveguide sizes have been investigated for use in luminescent solar ***,the optimized waveguide geometry and quantum dots concentrators have not been thoroughly *** this paper,we have simulated graphene quantum dots using density function theory.A Monte-Carlo ray-tracing simulation was developed to model our *** have optimized the luminescent solar concentrator geometry by Monte-Carlo *** optimization results show a 99%enhancement in the energy flux gain of the final ***,we have calculated and analyzed the fate of all photons.
