Novel types of tandem solar cells (TSC) based on dye-sensitized (DSC) and perovskite (PSC) solar cells including DSC/DSC and DSC/PSC configurations with a common counter electrode were fabricated and investigated. The measurements of PV parameters for tandem solar cells under AM1.5 light intensity conditions have shown that the highest power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 14.5% was obtained for the DSC/DSC tandem configuration. At the same time, investigations of DSC/PSC tandem solar cells demonstrated the prospective benefits of this tandem system for obtaining high PCE values.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
