Building-Integrated Solar Energy Devices based on Wavelength Selective Films

than it would have otherwise been. Her patience and feedback, especially during the writing of this thesis is deeply appreciated. In all my future endeavors, Prof. Davidson will remain a constant source of inspiration. I would also like to thank Dr. Wojciech Lipinski for his expert technical guidance at various stages of this research, and my colleagues at the Solar Energy Lab for honest feedback and advice. I am grateful to Tim Hebrink for providing concentrators and wavelength selective film for the prototype, and for his painstaking efforts and help in attaching the film to the concentrators. I would like to acknowledge Dr. Thomas Kuehn for allowing me to use the infrastructure and radiation measurement equipment of his undergraduate Therma
