Yi Hou,Erkan Aydin,Michele De Bastiani,Chuanxiao Xiao,Furkan Halis Isikgor,Ding-Jiang Xue,Bin Chen,Hao Chen,Behzad Bahrami,Ashraful Haider Chowdhury,Andrew Johnston,Se-Woong Baek,Ziru Huang,Mingyang Wei,Yitong Dong,Joel Troughton,Rawan Jalmood,Alessandro J. Mirabelli,Thomas Allen,Emmanuel Van Kerschaver,Makhsud I. Saidaminov,Derya Baran,Qiquan Qiao,Kai Zhu,Stefaan De Wolf,Edward H. Sargent +25 more
TL;DR: Tandems that combine solution-processed micrometer-thick perovskite top cells with fully textured silicon heterojunction bottom cells are reported, which presents the possibility of overcoming the single-junction Shockley-Queisser limit in photovoltaics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient silicon solar cells with dopant-free asymmetric heterocontacts

TL;DR: In this paper, the dopant-free electron and hole carrier-selective heterocontacts using alkali metal fluorides and metal oxides, respectively, in combination with passivating intrinsic amorphous silicon interlayers, were successfully developed and implemented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Passivating contacts for crystalline silicon solar cells
TL;DR: De Wolf et al. as mentioned in this paper reviewed the fundamental physical processes governing contact formation in crystalline silicon (c-Si) and identified the role passivating contacts play in increasing c-Si solar cell efficiencies beyond the limitations imposed by heavy doping and direct metallization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molybdenum oxide MoOx: A versatile hole contact for silicon solar cells
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the application of transparent MoOx films deposited by thermal evaporation directly onto crystalline silicon (c-Si) to create hole-conducting contacts for silicon solar cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Damp heat–stable perovskite solar cells with tailored-dimensionality 2D/3D heterojunctions
