Abstract
Perovskite silicon tandem solar cells can overcome the efficiency limit of single junction solar cells. For an optimized optical performance, we propose a 2-terminal device featuring a front-side anti-reflection structure, optimized layer thicknesses, a meso-porous scaffold for the perovskite solar cell and a rear-side light-trapping structure for the silicon solar cell. To maintain the functionality of the underlying layers, we have developed a low-temperature process to realize a meso-porous TiO 2 scaffold via ultra-violet (UV) curing. With perovskite solar cell efficiencies >15%, we achieve results comparable to our conventional high-temperature (> 500°C) route. For the optical optimization of the complex tandem device with elements of different feature sizes, we apply a matrix-based formalism and show how layer thickness optimization and the rear-side light trapping can significantly improve the current of the tandem device.
