Bandgap Grading Boosts Perovskite Solar Cell Performance
How does bandgap grading improve perovskite solar cell efficiency?
- Bandgap grading in perovskite solar cells involves gradually changing the composition of the perovskite material to create a gradient in bandgap energy levels.
- This bandgap grading allows for more efficient absorption of a broader range of sunlight wavelengths, increasing the overall efficiency of the solar cell.
- By optimizing the bandgap grading, researchers can tailor the perovskite material to better match the solar spectrum, maximizing energy conversion.
- The bandgap grading technique can also help reduce energy losses from thermalization, where excess energy from absorbed photons is lost as heat instead of being converted into electricity.
- Overall, bandgap grading in perovskite solar cells offers a promising approach to further improve the efficiency and performance of this rapidly advancing renewable energy technology.
