Abstract

Single-junction solar cells have inherent efficiency constraints that can be circumvented with multi-junction/tandem cells. The most recent iteration of tandem photovoltaic cells is the integration of perovskite top cells and silicon bottom cells. The perovskite top layer is superior in its ability to absorb blue light, while the silicon base layer is superior in its ability to absorb red light. Compared to their single-junction silicon counterparts, the combination of these materials greatly improves the efficiency with which sunlight is captured and converted into electricity. Numerous high-efficiency results are emerging from both commercial and scholarly research on Perovskite/Silicon tandem photovoltaic cells as an outcome of the intense interest in these materials. This paper provides an analysis of the current status of Perovskite/Silicon tandem photovoltaic cells. In this work, we take a look at where things stand with regard to the current state of Perovskite/Si tandem photovoltaic cells. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
