“…The optimum content of Zn(II) may well depend on the exact composition of the perovskite as well as the additives used in the procedure. Even a material with 20% Zn content has been reported [30] for a MAPbI 3 -based material without any bromide content or chloride additives.…”

Recent work of ten different groups shows that the application of zinc-halides in lead perovskite materials results in a contraction of the d-space, stronger interaction with the organic cation, improved crystallization with larger crystal domains, a Goldschmidt factor closer to unity, smoother and denser thin films and an even distribution of Zn(II) (at the Pb(II) sites) throughout the material. These combined effects may lead to: (1) a substantially higher stability (even at ambient or high humidity conditions); (2) enhanced luminescent properties; (3) a higher power conversion efficiency (PCE) of the corresponding solar cell devices (up to PCE ~20%, with enhancement factors of 1.07 to 1.33 relative to undoped material).

“…114 To lower its toxicity, Pb-free and less-Pb PVK based solar cells have been researched using safe tin (Sn)-based PVK. [115][116][117] PVK by moisture and heat, optimized PVK compositions were developed by mixing cations and halogen anions to achieve high stability against moisture and heat. Unlike thermally decomposed metylammonium lead triiodide PVK, formamidinium lead triiodide PVK, and cesium lead triiodide PVK showed high resistance to thermal decomposition.…”

“…Although the total amount of Pb in PVK/Si tandem solar cells is very low, it has been reported that the Pb of halide PVK is 10 times more dangerous than the Pb that already exists on the earth 114 . To lower its toxicity, Pb‐free and less‐Pb PVK based solar cells have been researched using safe tin (Sn)‐based PVK 115‐117 . However, Sn‐based PVK solar cells have lower efficiencies and faster degradation than Pb‐based PVK solar cells due to phase instability and easy oxidation from Sn 2+ to Sn 4+ .…”

For any solar cell technology to reach the final mass-production/commercialization stage, it must meet all technological, economic, and social criteria such as high efficiency, large-area scalability, long-term stability, price competitiveness, and environmental friendliness of constituent materials. Until now, various solar cell technologies have been proposed and investigated, but only crystalline silicon, CdTe, and CIGS technologies have overcome the threshold of mass-production/commercialization. Recently, a perovskite/silicon (PVK/Si) tandem solar cell technology with high efficiency of 29.1% has been reported, which exceeds the theoretical limit of single-junction solar cells as well as the efficiency of stand-alone silicon or perovskite solar cells. The International Technology Roadmap for Photovoltaics (ITRPV) predicts that silicon-based tandem solar cells will account for about 5% market share in 2029 and among various candidates, the combination of silicon and perovskite is the most likely scenario. Here, we classify and review the PVK/Si tandem solar cell technology in terms of homo-and hetero-junction silicon solar cells, the doping type of the bottom silicon cell, and the corresponding so-called normal and inverted structure of the top perovskite cell, along with mechanical and monolithic tandemization schemes. In particular, we review and discuss the recent advances in manufacturing top perovskite cells using solution and vacuum deposition technology for large-area scalability and specific issues of recombination layers and top transparent electrodes for large-area PVK/Si tandem solar cells, which are indispensable for the final commercialization of tandem solar cells.

“…The authors of [74] also hold a view that it is imperative to develop other types of perovskite material systems to achieve long-term stable solar cells, and work in this area is also ongoing in multiple research groups. Notably, efforts aimed at reducing the perovskite toxicity caused by the presence of lead and also removing the hysteresis in current-voltage characteristics have been reported [75,76].…”

Recent Developments in Solar Energy-Harvesting Technologies for Building Integration and Distributed Energy Generation

We present a review of the current state of the field for a rapidly evolving group of technologies related to solar energy harvesting in built environments. In particular, we focus on recent achievements in enabling the widespread distributed generation of electric energy assisted by energy capture in semi-transparent or even optically clear glazing systems and building wall areas. Whilst concentrating on recent cutting-edge results achieved in the integration of traditional photovoltaic device types into novel concentrator-type windows and glazings, we compare the main performance characteristics reported with these using more conventional (opaque or semi-transparent) solar cell technologies. A critical overview of the current status and future application potential of multiple existing and emergent energy harvesting technologies for building integration is provided.
