Thanks to their excellent properties of low cost, lightweight, portability, and conformity, flexible perovskite-based tandem solar cells show great potentials for energy harvesting applications, with flexible perovskite/c-silicon tandem solar cells particularly promising for achieving high efficiency. However, performance of flexible perovskite/c-silicon monolithic tandem solar cells still greatly lags, due to challenges in simultaneously achieving both efficient photocarrier transport and reliable mitigation of residual stress. Here, we reveal the critical role of perovskite phase homogeneity, for achieving highly-efficient and mechanical-stable flexible perovskite/c-silicon heterojunction monolithic tandem solar cells (PSTs) with textured surface. Through ensuring high phase homogeneity, which promotes charge transfer across all facets of the pyramid on the textured substrates and releases the residual stress at the perovskite/c-silicon interface, we demonstrate flexible PSTs with a bending curvature of 0.44 cm, and a certified power conversion efficiency of 29.88% (steady-state 29.2%, 1.04 cm aperture area), surpassing all other types of flexible perovskite-based photovoltaic devices. Our results can lead to broad applications and commercialization of flexible perovskite/c-silicon tandem photovoltaics.
由于具有低成本、轻质、便携和贴合性等优异特性,基于柔性钙钛矿的串联太阳能电池在能量收集应用中显示出巨大潜力,其中柔性钙钛矿/晶体硅串联太阳能电池在实现高效率方面尤其具有前景。然而,由于在同时实现高效光载流子传输和可靠缓解残余应力方面存在挑战,柔性钙钛矿/晶体硅单片串联太阳能电池的性能仍有很大差距。在此,我们揭示了钙钛矿相均匀性对于实现具有纹理表面的高效且机械稳定的柔性钙钛矿/晶体硅异质结单片串联太阳能电池(PST)的关键作用。通过确保高相均匀性,这促进了电荷在纹理化衬底上金字塔所有面的转移,并释放了钙钛矿/晶体硅界面处的残余应力,我们展示了弯曲曲率为0.44厘米、认证功率转换效率为29.88%(稳态29.2%,孔径面积1.04平方厘米)的柔性PST,超过了所有其他类型的基于柔性钙钛矿的光伏器件。我们的结果可推动柔性钙钛矿/晶体硅串联光伏的广泛应用和商业化。
