Abstract
Silicon-based tandem solar cells with efficient use of the solar spectrum are desirable for a next generation-commercial photovoltaic system. It has been widely investigated elsewhere using perovskites or III-V cells as top cell materials for high efficiency and stability. However, perovskite and III-V top cells are still unsuitable for mass production as well as expansion and integration with silicon solar cell production processes so far. Two-terminal bifacial Si/Si tandem cell by bonding with transparent conductive adhesive (TCA) is reported here. The current matching can maximize the efficiency by controlling the opening area of the top cell, which makes the bottom cell also able to absorb sunlight in the short wavelength region that is absorbed by the top cell as well, without being limited to the thickness or bandgap of the top cell. The Si/Si tandem solar cell achieved 25.195 mA/cm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> of current density after current matching by 36% opening ratio of top cell.
