Inorganic thin-film photovoltaics (PV) technologies (including cadmium telluride, kesterite, antimony chalcogenide, nanometric silicon, and elemental selenium) emerge as promising candidates for indoor applications due to their suitable bandgap energies and very high robustness and stability, as well as their potential to achieve higher efficiencies at indoor illumination conditions. The work reported here compares the optoelectronic performance of several technologies under relevant indoor illumination conditions using a consistent characterization methodology, that encompasses the needs of indoor PV, including a benchmark with commercial state-of-the-art (SoA) a-Si devices. The results show many devices performing surprisingly well indoors, which corroborates their potential for achieving high efficiencies. However, the performance of these devices is compromised at very low irradiance conditions, and this is attributed to the need for optimization of both the shunt resistance and saturation current density.","PeriodicalId":230,"journal":{"name":"Solar RRL","volume":"9 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/solr.202500030","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144220320","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the fabrication of perovskite films on commercially textured silicon substrates still faces challenges, including difficulty in controlling crystal orientation, high defect density, and insufficient stability. This study innovatively introduces 5-chloro-7-azaindole (5C7A) as a functional additive in the perovskite layer. Through its unique cation-π interactions and Lewis acid–base synergistic passivation mechanism, 5C7A enables a multidimensional optimization of perovskite films. The 5C7A significantly enhances perovskite crystallinity and grain size while anchoring uncoordinated Pb2+ and halide vacancies, thereby reducing trap state density. Additionally, 5C7A effectively releases internal stress in the perovskite film, increases the ion migration energy barrier, and extends carrier lifetime, leading to an improvement in the power conversion efficiency of inverted single-junction devices to 23.25% along with significantly enhanced photostability. Furthermore, the fabricated perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells achieve an impressive efficiency of 30.59%. This study proposes a new paradigm for regulating perovskite films via noncovalent interactions from a molecular engineering perspective, providing a key material strategy for the industrial development of high-efficiency and stable tandem solar cells.","PeriodicalId":230,"journal":{"name":"Solar RRL","volume":"9 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144220238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The high nitrogen content and aromatic nature of APz further contribute to improved structural stability and moisture resistance in the perovskite films, enhancing charge transport. Optimized PSCs with APz achieve a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 21.31% and retain over 94% of their initial PCE after 20 days of ambient storage.

This review provides a comprehensive exploration of AV systems, including their historical development, technological advancements, environmental and economic benefits, policy frameworks, and alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Key findings highlight the potential of AV systems to improve microclimatic conditions, protect crops from adverse environmental factors, and generate dual income streams for farmers. Case studies illustrate successful implementations across diverse geographies, showcasing the adaptability of AV systems to varying climatic and agricultural conditions. Despite their promise, AV systems face significant challenges, including high initial costs, technical complexities, and land-use conflicts. Future research directions emphasize the integration of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, energy storage, and autonomous robotics, alongside hybrid renewable energy systems, to enhance the scalability and resilience of AV solutions.

Recent studies have shown that reverse bias can improve the open-circuit voltage (VOC) of PSCs by ≈0.06 V due to the migration of iodine ions filling vacancies at the electron transport layer (ETL)/perovskite interface. It can be deduced that in iodine-rich PSCs, the potential for reverse-biasing to enhance VOC is limited due to the suppression of iodine vacancies by excess iodine atoms. This work confirms that, in iodine-rich PSCs, reverse bias has a minimal effect on VOC, but leads to a ≈3.9% increase in short-circuit current density (JSC), from 25.40 to 26.40 mA/cm2, and an enhancement of ≈3.2% in power conversion efficiency from 23.00% to 23.74%. The improved JSC can be attributed to reduced carrier recombination near the ETL/perovskite interface, as evidenced by enhanced external quantum efficiency and increased recombination resistance in the short-wavelength region. These insights suggest a practical posttreatment strategy for high-performance PSCs.","PeriodicalId":230,"journal":{"name":"Solar RRL","volume":"9 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144220043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach enables the deposition of a 2.4 µm thick absorber layer in just 100 s, drastically lowering production time compared to conventional MOVPE rates below 10 µm/h. The solar cell achieves an excellent open-circuit voltage of 1061 mV and a fill factor of 83.2% using optimized growth conditions, matching the performance of state-of-the-art GaAs cells on bulk substrates grown at slow rates with much higher V/III ratios. At these high growth rates, increased defect densities of EL2 for electrons and HM1 for holes have been observed leading to promoted non-radiative recombination lowering the device performance. The GaAs absorber layer is engineered to minimize the impact of those defects, such that high solar cell efficiency is successfully maintained, despite the accelerated growth rate of 94 mm/h. This work not only showcases the feasibility of high-throughput, cost-effective production of high-efficiency III–V solar cells via MOVPE but also highlights potential environmental benefits from reduced material use and waste treatment.","PeriodicalId":230,"journal":{"name":"Solar RRL","volume":"9 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/solr.202500215","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144219947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
