AbstractA theory is developed, which describes the experimental external quantum efficiency, EQE (λ) as a function of photon wavelength for structured Si-based solar cells. Short-circuit current density as a function of base thickness, d , is calculated for the high-efficiency solar cells with the photoconversion efficiency η ≥ 25% The procedure allows one to carry out a complete optimization of such solar cells, in particular, to find the optimal base thickness, d _opt.

Organic–inorganic hybrid perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have made immense progress in recent years, owing to outstanding optoelectronic properties of perovskite materials, such as high extinction coefficient, carrier mobility, and low exciton binding energy. Since the first appearance in 2009, the efficiency of PSCs has reached 23.3%. This has made them the most promising rival to silicon-based solar cells. However, there are still several issues to resolve to promote PSCs’ outdoor applications. In this review, three crucial aspects of PSCs, including high efficiency, environmental stability, and low-cost of PSCs, are described in detail. Recent in-depth studies on different aspects are also discussed for better understanding of these issues and possible solutions.
