Title: Efficiency of nonimaging concentrators in the physical-optics model

Journal Article · · J. Opt. Soc. Am.; (United States)

The consequences of Liouville's theorem that are known to be valid in the geometrical-optics limit are shown to hold when wavelength-dependent effects, for example, diffraction and scattering, are taken into account.
