摘要：
Visible light communication (VLC) is a promising candidate for high-speed wireless communication with numerous unlicensed spectrum. To achieve high-speed data communication, it requires intense light signals concentrated on a tiny fast photodiode. The common way of using focusing optics reduces the field of view (FoV) of the photodiode due to the conservation of tendue. Luminescent solar concentrators (LSC) provide a solution to enhance the signals without affecting the FoV. In this paper we demonstrate nanopatterned LSCs fabricated on flexible plastics that achieve a doubling of optical gain compared to its traditional rectangular counterparts. These LSCs can free VLC detectors from complex active pointing and tracking systems, making them compatible with smart mobile terminals in a simple fashion. (C) 2017 Optical Society of America
