Title: | Four-Terminal Perovskite/Silicon Multijunction Solar Modules | Authors: | Jaysankar, Manoj Qiu, Weiming van Eerden, Maarten AERNOUTS, Tom Gehlhaar, Robert Debucquoy, Maarten Paetzold, Ulrich W. POORTMANS, Jef |
Issue Date: | 2017 | Publisher: | WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH | Source: | ADVANCED ENERGY MATERIALS, 7(15), p. 1-8 (Art N° 1602807) | Abstract: | Multijunction solar cells employing perovskite and crystalline-silicon (c-Si) light absorbers bear the exciting potential to surpass the efficiency limit of market-leading single-junction c-Si solar cells. However, scaling up this technology and maintaining high efficiency over large areas are challenging as evidenced by the small-area perovskite/c-Si multijunction solar cells reported so far. In this work, a scalable four-terminal multijunction solar module design employing a 4 cm(2) semitransparent methylammonium lead triiodide perovskite solar module stacked on top of an interdigitated back contact c-Si solar cell of identical area is demonstrated. With a combination of optimized transparent electrodes and efficient module design, the perovskite/c-Si multijunction solar modules exhibit power conversion efficiencies of 22.6% on 0.13 cm(2) and 20.2% on 4 cm(2) aperture area. Furthermore, a detailed optoelectronic loss analysis along with strategies to enhance the performance is discussed. | Notes: | [Jaysankar, Manoj; Qiu, Weiming; Aernouts, Tom; Gehlhaar, Robert; Debucquoy, Maarten; Paetzold, Ulrich W.; Poortmans, Jef] IMEC Partner Solliance, Kapeldreef 75, B-3001 Heverlee, Belgium.
