What are the constraints on solar cell production?

These constraints will be defined by the working environment in which solar cells are produced. For example in a commercial environment where the objective is to produce a competitively priced solar cell, the cost of fabricating a particular solar cell structure must be taken into consideration.

What is solar cell design?

Solar cell design involves specifying the parameters of a solar cell structure in order to maximize efficiency, given a certain set of constraints. These constraints will be defined by the working environment in which solar cells are produced.

How efficient is a solar cell in open-air?

With the experimental planning guided by the BO framework with knowledge constraints, we achieved an 18.5%-efficient solar cell in open-air after optimizing six process variables for perovskite deposition, conducting 5 experimental rounds and screening 100 process conditions.

What challenges does solar energy face?

Another major challenge that solar energy faces is storage of the generated power. Electricity from Photovolatic cells cannot be generated during the night and during cloudy days and hence suitable measures have to be adopted to store the energy produced during the other times of the day.

How to design and optimize a solar cell structure?

When designing and optimizing a solar cell structure, we use two light-trapping methods: light-trapping BR layer and nano-texturing. Metals like silver (Ag) maybe used as a BR layer, while alkaline solutions like KOH or NaOH are used for nano-texturing of layer’s interfaces.

Do heterojunctions increase solar cell efficiency?

Heterojunctions can increase the efficiency of solar cell devices relative to homojunctions, but there is a large parameter space with significant tradeoffs that must be considered.
