AI Customer Service• The theory of solar cells, which explains the conversion of light energy in photons into electric current. The theoretical studies are practical because they predict the fundamental limits of a solar cell. • The design and development of thin-film technology-based solar cells.
The theoretical limit is far beyond that of the solar cells and many analyses show that the limit is just above 80% , , , (this is far beyond solar cell limits). The area is rich and many device designs and materials have been explored. However, the reported efficiencies are still small , . 3.
The organic solar cells (OSCs) use phase-separated mixtures of various materials in a BHJ architecture in order to absorb light and split the exciton into hole-electron pairs at the interface between the two (or three) materials. They thus fall between limits of crystalline solar-cell materials and photosynthesis.
Let us consider the general picture of a solar cell in the thermodynamic framework to include all possibilities to build an ideal solar cell (Würfel 2005). Essentially, a solar cell consists of an absorber material that absorbs the incoming light radiations and generates electron–hole pairs.
The fundamental principles of organic solar cells: In 1977, H. Shirakawa and Alan G. M. Heeger discovered organic semiconductors, which led to the discovery of the fundamental phenomenon of organic solar cells. . An easy way to understand how a solar cell works is depicted in Fig. 7.
Moreover, we present the rationale behind the theoretical assessment of solar cell efficiencies, highlighting and quantifying the impact of both electronic disorder in the solar absorber material and electron–hole recombination (radiative versus non-radiative) on the efficiency of a cell.
