Photovoltaics provides a very clean, reliable and limitless means for meeting the ever-increasing global energy demand. Silicon solar cells have been the dominant driving force in photovoltaic technology for the past several decades due to the relative abundance and environmentally friendly nature of silicon.
Using only 3–20 μm -thick silicon, resulting in low bulk-recombination loss, our silicon solar cells are projected to achieve up to 31% conversion efficiency, using realistic values of surface recombination, Auger recombination and overall carrier lifetime.
Crystalline silicon solar cells are today’s main photovoltaic technology, enabling the production of electricity with minimal carbon emissions and at an unprecedented low cost. This Review discusses the recent evolution of this technology, the present status of research and industrial development, and the near-future perspectives.
The ability to engineer efficient silicon solar cells using a-Si:H layers was demonstrated in the early 1990s 113, 114. Many research laboratories with expertise in thin-film silicon photovoltaics joined the effort in the past 15 years, following the decline of this technology for large-scale energy production.
Eventually, the combination of high-bandgap and low-bandgap thin-film solar cells (such as perovskite/perovskite) could combine high efficiency and low cost, spelling the death of crystalline silicon PV technology.
Except for niche applications (which still constitute a lot of opportunities), the status of crystalline silicon shows that a solar technology needs to go over 22% module efficiency at a cost below US$0.2 W −1 within the next 5 years to be competitive on the mass market.
