Enhancing the performance of solar cells via luminescent down-shifting of the incident spectrum: A review
TL;DR: The application of a luminescent down-shifting (LDS) layer has been proposed as a method for improving the poor spectral response (SR) of solar cells to short-wavelength light.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rubidium Multication Perovskite with Optimized Bandgap for Perovskite-Silicon Tandem with over 26% Efficiency
Yiliang Wu,Heping Shen,Jun Peng,Xiao Fu,Daniel A. Jacobs,Er-Chien Wang,Teng Kho,Kean Chern Fong,Matthew Stocks,Evan Franklin,Andrew Blakers,Ngwe Zin,Keith R. McIntosh,Wei Li,Yi-Bing Cheng,Thomas P. White,Klaus Weber,Kylie R. Catchpole +17 more
TL;DR: Rubidium (Rb) is explored as an alternative cation to use in a novel multication method with the formamidinium/methylammonium/cesium (Cs) system to obtain 1.73 eV bangap perovskite cells with negligible hysteresis and steady state efficiency as high as 17.4 as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reflection of normally incident light from silicon solar cells with pyramidal texture
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define a general expression for the reflectance of a pyramidal texture by identifying discrete paths of reflection and the fraction of reflected light that follows each of these paths.

TL;DR: In this paper, a solar cell that is readily manufactured using processing techniques which are less expensive than microelectronic circuit processing is presented. In preferred embodiments, printing techniques are utilized in selectively forming masks for use in etching of silicon oxide and diffusing dopants and in forming metal contacts to diffused regions.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
OPAL 2: Rapid optical simulation of silicon solar cells
TL;DR: In this article, the optical losses associated with the front surface of a Si solar cell are computed by decoupling the ray tracing from the Fresnel equations, which can be used to assess the random-pyramid texture of c-Si solar cells.
