This ground-breaking achievement in maximising power generation from next-generation renewable energy sources will be crucial to securing world's energy future. Perovskites are a class of materials that exhibit high light absorption efficiency and ease of fabrication, making them promising for solar cell applications.
In November 2023, a buzzy solar technology broke yet another world record for efficiency. The previous record had existed for only about five months—and it likely won’t be long before it too is obsolete. This astonishing acceleration in efficiency gains comes from a special breed of next-generation solar technology: perovskite tandem solar cells.
When silicon and perovskites work together in tandem solar cells, they can utilize more of the solar spectrum, producing more electricity per cell. Technical efficiency levels for silicon-based cells top out below 30%, while perovskite-only cells have reached experimental efficiencies of around 26%.
The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has developed rapidly over the past decade 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, with a certified efficiency of 26.1% obtained 8. Realizing long-term stability on highly efficient PSCs is an important prerequisite for commercialization.
PSC devices have great potential to revolutionize the solar power industry due to their high efficiency and low production costs. However, creating uniform, high-quality perovskite films presents a significant problem. These films serve an important function in minimizing current leakage and ensuring efficient charge transport within the device.
