Research on the assessment of technical methods to suppress auger recombination

Abstract

Human demand for fossil fuels has reached a very high level. However, fossil energy stocks are limited and, more importantly, their impact on the environment is increasing. The exploration of clean energy is particularly important. Among all the clean energy sources, solar energy is a very promising and important alternative to fossil fuels. And one of the primary reasons for the failure of solar photovoltaic cells to achieve rapid development is the generation of Auger composite. In order to provide support to solve this problem or facilitate the follow-up of researchers, this paper summarizes several effective methods such as Interfacial Engineering and Gradient Alloying to solve the Auger recombination problem in multi-exciton photovoltaic cells through reading and comparing a large number of relevant authoritative literature. The two methods mentioned above suppress Auger recombination by applying a new type of MXene (Nb2CTX-MXene) to the interface of SnO2 layers to pssivate the interfacial defects and promote charge transport and to generate InAs/CdSe core/shell QDs, overcoating InAs QDs with a lattice-matched CdSe shell. Comparing a large number of pieces of literature, it is found that the above two methods have guiding effects in improving the efficiency of photovoltaic cells.
