Abstract:	In this investigation Naphtalimide based Lumogen Violet organic dye [BASF] is characterized for inclusion in luminescent downshifting (LDS) layers. A PV device made up of an LDS layer of Lumogen Violet deposited on top of a crystalline silicon cell has been fabricated to improve its power conversion efficiency. External quantum efficiency measurements and outdoor tests for the PV/LDS devices are discussed. An analytical model was also developed to compare experiment results with the model predictions.
