CNT-based bifacial perovskite solar cells towards highly efficient 4-terminal tandem photovoltaics

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Fan Fu, Hongwei Zhu, Chunyang Zhang

Carbon-based perovskite solar cells (C-PSCs) are recognized as low-cost stable photovoltaics. However, currently most highly efficient C-PSCs are optically opaque, which means that they can only utilize direct illumination but cannot efficiently utilize th ...

Vapor-assisted deposition of highly efficient, stable black-phase FAPbI(3) perovskite solar cells

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, David Lyndon Emsley, Ursula Röthlisberger, Wolfgang Richard Tress, Likai Zheng, Felix Thomas Eickemeyer, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Yuhang Liu, Zaiwei Wang

Mixtures of cations or halides with FAPbI(3) (where FA is formamidinium) lead to high efficiency in perovskite solar cells (PSCs) but also to blue-shifted absorption and long-term stability issues caused by loss of volatile methylammonium (MA) and phase se ...

Instability of p-i-n perovskite solar cells under reverse bias

Christophe Ballif, Quentin Thomas Jeangros, Florent Sahli, Arnaud Walter, Daniel Anthony Jacobs, Fan Fu, Ricardo Augusto Zanotto Razera, Sylvain Nicolay, Peter Joseph Fiala, Laura Ding

Partial shading can trigger permanent damage in photovoltaic modules because the illuminated solar cells drive the shaded cells into reverse bias. Under reverse bias conditions, perovskite solar cells have been shown to degrade quickly due to processes tha ...
