Iterative method for optical modelling of perovskite-based tandem solar cells

E. Raoult et al.

Summary: In this paper, we present an iterative method to model the optical properties of a complete semitransparent perovskite solar cell. The model takes into account porosity and incoherence effects, and is coupled to an electrical model of 4T perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells. It allows for the evaluation of the interplay between optical and electrical losses, as well as the efficiency balance between the top and bottom cells.

A self-consistent interactive model for the study of luminescence coupling in multijunction solar cells

Daniel N. Micha et al.

Summary: This study introduces a self-consistent interactive model based on the detailed balance approach to investigate the impact of luminescence coupling in multijunction solar cells. The analysis reveals that luminescence coupling does not alter the optimum bandgap energy combination for achieving the highest PCE, but expands the range of configurations with high PCE, aiding in the design of high efficiency multijunction solar cells.

Semitransparent Perovskite Solar Cells for Building Integration and Tandem Photovoltaics: Design Strategies and Challenges

Giuliana Giuliano et al.

Summary: Halide perovskite systems have gained widespread attention for their exceptional photovoltaic performance over the past decade. Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have shown efficiencies exceeding 25% at low fabrication costs and have the potential to be lightweight, flexible, and semitransparent for modern unconventional PV applications. ST-PSCs, with their ability to combine transparency and high efficiency, hold great promise for future versatile utilization in building-integrated PVs and tandem PV devices.
