Abstract: A photovoltaic glass pane includes a glass panel, and one or more photovoltaic cells arranged on or in the glass panel. Each of the one or more photovoltaic cells has a light receiving surface to be exposed to light from a light source and being comprised of a semiconducting material having a spectral response to the light. A spectral conversion layer is arranged between the light receiving surface and the light source and is configured to convert photons from the light source of a first energy into photons of a second energy. The spectral response to the photons of the second energy is higher than the spectral response to the photons of the first energy.

Abstract: An electrochromic glass pane includes an assembly of a first part, including a first glass plate forming a first conductive substrate having a first conductive surface and a first non-conductive surface opposite the first conductive surface, and a negative semiconducting film on the first conductive surface, a second part, including a second glass plate forming a second conductive substrate having a second conductive surface and a second non-conductive surface opposite the second conductive surface, and a positive semiconducting film on the second conductive surface, the negative and positive semiconducting films being configured to function as negative and positive electrodes of the electrochromic glass pane, respectively, the first conductive surface facing the second conductive surface, an electrolyte being arranged between the first and second conductive surfaces, and the negative and positive semiconducting films being formed by jet printing first and second electrochromic inks onto the first and second
