Abstract
Perovskites for tandem solar cells

Improving the performance of conventional single-crystalline silicon solar cells will help increase their adoption. The absorption of bluer light by an inexpensive overlying solar cell in a tandem arrangement would provide a step in the right direction by improving overall efficiency. Inorganic-organic perovskite cells can be tuned to have an appropriate band gap, but these compositions are prone to decomposition. McMeekin et al. show that using cesium ions along with formamidinium cations in lead bromide–iodide cells improved thermal and photostability. These improvements lead to high efficiency in single and tandem cells.
