Photonic enhancement of parallel homo-tandem solar cells through the central electrode
摘要: Improvement of solar cell performance through the parallel homo-tandem architecture is studied. The cell geometry is optically designed to maximize absorption of the AM1.5 spectrum. We consider both ITO electrode and a recently devised ITO-free alternative, the Two-Resonance Tapping Cavity. The optimal geometry strongly depends on this choice. We identify two mechanisms by which tandem cells outperform single cells: (i) back-up absorption and (ii) interferometric gain mediated by the central metallic electrode. We numerically demonstrate large improvement in short-circuit current for a wide choice of realistic materials: PTB7-th:PC71BM, P3HT:PC61BM, DBP:C70, and methylammonium lead halide perovskite, as well as a theoretical material with a Shockley-Queiser type of spectral absorption plus an Urbach tail. Such an idealized response is found to reliably model real materials. A general response pattern is found that fits all the cases covered in our study, and which can serve as a guide to optimize homo-tandem cells.

Tandems in the thick of it
摘要: Two-terminal all-perovskite tandem structures are promising as low-cost yet highly efficient solar cells, but their development is limited by the poor quality of the low bandgap absorber layer. Now, a processing method has been shown to enable the production of uniform, thick tin–lead perovskite layers, which translate into improved photovoltaic parameters.
