Modeling and simulation of bifacial perovskite/PERT-silicon tandem solar cells

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we physically modeled a bifacial perovskite/PERT-silicon tandem solar cells for the first time using Silvaco technology computer-aided design simulator (TCAD). The cell model was calibrated with the reported experimental data of perovskite solar cell (PSC) and PERT-silicon solar cell. The effects of perovskite thickness (tpvk) and perovskite bandgap were investigated on the performance of bifacial tandem solar cells under different albedo. The simulation results predict that the optimum tpvk increases with albedo intensities because a thicker perovskite layer is needed to facilitate current matching for high albedos. Moreover, the tpvk tolerance for a high-efficiency bifacial tandem solar cell increases with albedo. The simulation results reveal an efficiency over 31.9% for 0.45–1 μm of tpvk with 1.65–1.75 eV perovskite bandgap for a bifacial tandem cell under 30% albedo. Additionally, compared to the monofacial cell, the tandem design shows an enhancement of about 30% at the spectral albedo level of common grounds like concrete. The simulation and analysis presented in this work can help optimize perovskite/silicon tandem cell manufacturing to achieve higher power conversion efficiencies.
