abstract
The recent tremendous progress in monolithic perovskite-based double-junction solar cells is just the start of a new era of ultra-high-efficiency multi-junction photovoltaics. We report on triple-junction perovskite--perovskite--silicon solar cells with a record power conversion efficiency of 24.4%. Optimizing the light management of each perovskite sub-cell ($\sim$1.84 and $\sim$1.52 eV for top and middle cells, respectively), we maximize the current generation up to 11.6 mA cm$-$2. Key to this achievement was our development of a high-performance middle perovskite sub-cell, employing a stable pure-\textgreeka-phase high-quality formamidinium lead iodide perovskite thin film (free of wrinkles, cracks, and pinholes). This enables a high open-circuit voltage of 2.84 V in a triple junction. Non-encapsulated triple-junction devices retain up to 96.6% of their initial efficiency if stored in the dark at 85 °C for 1081 h.Beteiligte Forschungsgruppen
