Abstract

The intermediate band solar cell (IBSC), the multiple exciton generation solar cell (MEGSC) and the hot carrier solar cell (HCSC) are three novel concepts in photovoltaics which aim to achieve high efficiency devices. In this paper we assess to what extent their physical principles of operation have been experimentally verified. It is found that there is experimental evidence supporting the underlying theory for all three.
