Our PhD student Oussama Er-raji along with Dr. Christoph Messmer and their collaborators published a new work where they used various characterisation techniques to investigate loss origins in fully-textured perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells. By feeding the extracted device characteristic parameters into a Sentaurus TCAD opto-electrical model, the study delivered precise steps required to reach the practical efficiency potential for this technology calculated to be 39.5%. This work will help to prioritise optimisation pathways to accelerate the development of perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells towards their practical limit.
