View moreThe band gap represents the minimum energy required to excite an electron in a semiconductor to a higher energy state. Only photons with energy greater than or equal to a material's band gap can be absorbed. A solar cell delivers power, the product of current and voltage.
The palette of materials with potential use for photovoltaics is ever expanding, however, if one is restricting consideration to only a single band gap device, the suitability of a newly discovered material may be poor if its band gap is outside of the 1.0–1.5 eV range.
Crucially, as efforts to realize multi-junction solar cells with increasing numbers of sub-cells receives ever greater attention, these results indicate that the choice of lowest band gap and therefore the active substrate for a MJ solar cell is nowhere near as restrictive as may first be thought.
In order for low bandgap perovskite solar cells to operate at peak power conversion efficiency, charge extraction and transport must be optimized. Consistent challenges include accelerating charge transfer to the right electrodes and reducing charge recombination losses.
Perovskite solar cells with a low bandgap can absorb more of the sun’s light, increasing the efficiency and usefulness of photovoltaics . The perovskite absorber layer plays a significant part in the standard perovskite solar cell structure, and is often a hybrid organic–inorganic lead halide compound.
Wide band gap semiconductors are important for the development of tandem photovoltaics. By introducing buffer layers at the front and rear side of solar cells based on selenium; Todorov et al., reduce interface recombination losses to achieve photoconversion efficiencies of 6.5%.
