“…S6A (ESI †) illustrates the charging/discharging mode of the IPCs. 39,40 Under solar illumination, the light-electric conversion of the PV unit is realized via connecting T1 and T2; photo-charging of the IPC is implemented, and the harvested energy is stored in the ES unit via connecting T1 and T3 under sunlight; Under dark conditions, the stored energy in the ER and the IPC can be applied to the external load (dark-discharging) via connecting T2-T3 and T1-T3, respectively. The electrochemical workstation (CHI660E, Chenghua Co. Ltd Shanghai) was used to simulate the load and measure the electrochemical performance of the devices.…”

“…Potentially, a two‐terminal device can be connected directly to low voltage electronics if the cell voltage is sufficient for running the circuit (Figure 5a). As shown in Figure 5b, some reports suggest a direct parallel connection of a solar cell and an energy storage device for powering a load (e. g., wireless circuit) [12] . In this form, an inherently three‐terminal hybrid cell is wired to perform as a two‐terminal device by replacing the S1 switch in Figure 1a with a short circuit path.…”

Energy storage is essential in many electrical and electronic applications powered through solar cells. This has motivated many research groups around the world to design single hybrid cells with the capability of both energy harvesting and charge storage. Despite the general perception of being able to make more compact and lower‐cost solar panels with hybrid cells, as compared to conventional energy systems with separated panels and batteries, there are drawbacks in the series connection of hybrid cells in a panel form. These drawbacks are discussed in this review. The focus of the current manuscript is on the application of single hybrid cells in low‐voltage and low‐power electronics and wearable electronics. The voltage requirements in those applications are discussed and two‐terminal and three‐terminal hybrid cells are reviewed. Promising technologies are highlighted in the conclusions.

“…Among the various types of solar cells, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) [ 7 , 8 , 9 ] and dye-sensitized solar cells [ 10 , 11 , 12 ] are considered potential self-charging sources for LIBs. Various studies have been carried out on solar energy storage using capacitors [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ]. A few studies have been carried out on the use of solar energy as a self-charging source for LIBs.…”

This study demonstrates the use of perovskite solar cells for fabrication of self-charging lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). A LiFePO4 (LFP) cathode and Li4Ti5O12 (LTO) anode were used to fabricate a LIB. The surface morphologies of the LiFePO4 and Li4Ti5O12 powders were examined using field emission scanning electron microscopy. The structural properties of the two powders were investigated using X-ray diffraction. The electrochemical properties of the LiFePO4-Li and Li4Ti5O12-Li half cells and of the full cell were investigated. The LiFePO4-Li4Ti5O12 full cell showed an excellent Coulombic efficiency of 99.3% after 100 cycles. CH3NH3PBI3 (MAPbI3) perovskite solar cells (PSCs) were fabricated using a spin coating technique. A single PSC showed a power conversion efficiency of 12.95%. In order to develop a self-charging system for LIBs, four single PSCs connected in series were used as an LFP-LTO battery. The integrated PSC system showed a power conversion efficiency of 12.44%. The PSC-LIB coupled device showed excellent overall self-charging conversion and a storage efficiency of 9.25%.
