Given the rapid progress in perovskite solar cells in recent years, perovskite/silicon (Si) tandem structure has been proposed to be a potentially cost-effective improvement on Si solar cells because of its higher efficiency at a minimal additional cost.
We experimentally demonstrate that monolithic perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells possess a superior reverse-bias resilience compared with perovskite single-junction solar cells. The majority of the reverse-bias voltage is dropped across the more robust silicon subcell, protecting the perovskite subcell from reverse-bias-induced …
1 Introduction. A photovoltaic module consists of a series connection of solar cells. Within the string, a solar cell or a group of cells might experience reverse bias stress if shadowed during photovoltaic operations, [] acting as a power load, [] and potentially dissipating large amounts of energy. As a result, localized high-temperature …
