Abstract

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have achieved exceptional light-to-power conversion efficiencies, yet their optical losses, particularly in the near-infrared, still limit full photovoltaic potential. The integration of plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) has emerged as an effective light-management strategy to overcome these limitations by enhancing optical absorption and tailoring charge-carrier dynamics. This review provides a comprehensive overview of analytical and numerical studies focused on plasmonic-enhanced PSCs, including the underlying enhancement mechanisms. The influence of NP material, geometry, size, spatial distribution, and embedding layer on device performance is systematically discussed. Finally, the main challenges and future perspectives in bridging theoretical predictions with experimental realization are highlighted, outlining guidelines for the rational optical design of next-generation plasmonic PSCs.

等离子体纳米粒子增强钙钛矿太阳能电池的建模和设计原则：综述

钙钛矿太阳能电池（PSCs）已经实现了卓越的光功率转换效率，但是它们的光学损耗，特别是在近红外波段，仍然限制了光伏发电的潜力。等离子体纳米粒子（NPs）的集成已经成为一种有效的光管理策略，通过增强光吸收和调整电荷载流子动力学来克服这些限制。本文综述了等离子体增强psc的分析和数值研究，包括潜在的增强机制。系统地讨论了NP材料、几何形状、尺寸、空间分布和嵌入层对器件性能的影响。最后，强调了将理论预测与实验实现相结合的主要挑战和未来前景，概述了下一代等离子体等离子体等离子体材料合理光学设计的指导方针。

期刊介绍： Solar RRL, formerly known as Rapid Research Letters, has evolved to embrace a broader and more encompassing format. We publish Research Articles and Reviews covering all facets of solar energy conversion. This includes, but is not limited to, photovoltaics and solar cells (both established and emerging systems), as well as the development, characterization, and optimization of materials and devices. Additionally, we cover topics such as photovoltaic modules and systems, their installation and deployment, photocatalysis, solar fuels, photothermal and photoelectrochemical solar energy conversion, energy distribution, grid issues, and other relevant aspects. Join us in exploring the latest advancements in solar energy conversion research.
