“…We remark that while scaling up further to industrial‐scale modules, inhomogeneity will be the key loss factor limiting the aperture PCE of the perovskite solar module and consequently the multijunction solar module. Homogeneous, large‐area perovskite coating and deposition techniques are therefore essential for maintaining the high‐aperture PCE on large sizes . By combining comprehensive loss reduction strategies with effective large‐area fabrication, perovskite‐based multijunction solar modules with PCE surpassing established PV technologies can be realized on an industrial scale.…”

Perovskite‐based multijunction solar cells can potentially overcome the power conversion efficiency (PCE) limits of established solar cell technologies. The technology combines high‐efficiency perovskite top solar cells with crystalline silicon (c‐Si) and copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS) single‐junction solar cells enabling a more efficient harnessing of solar energy. In this work, we present high‐efficiency and scalable perovskite‐CIGS and perovskite‐Si multijunction solar modules in a four‐terminal configuration. We design the multijunction solar modules for minimal optical losses through careful optical engineering. In addition to optimized light coupling, the solar modules are fabricated in a scalable device design. Starting from lab‐scale cells of 0.13 cm2, we scale up the multijunction devices by two orders of magnitude to 16 cm2 and investigate the various losses affecting the PCE of large‐area multijunction solar modules, thus providing valuable insights into scalability of the technology. The champion perovskite‐CIGS and perovskite‐Si multijunction solar modules exhibit higher PCE than the stand‐alone devices on sizes up 16 cm2, paving the way for high‐effiency perovskite‐based multijunction photovoltaics. This work brings to forth relevant upscaling aspects of perovskite‐based multijunction solar cell technology, which is a key milestone in the road to commercial feasibility of the perovskite‐based multijunction solar cell technology.

“…However, the morphological nonuniformity over the large areas and the complex procedures are the critical issues of the antisolvent method . With the antisolvent treatment, uniform perovskite films can be formed over a localized area, but poor perovskite films are obtained for large‐area (over 25 mm 2 ) substrates, which are critical to mass production .…”

Herein, all-solution-processed and ambient air-stable perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) based on organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite nanocrystals are fabricated. Uniform surface coverage of methylammonium lead bromide (MAPbBr 3 ) perovskite nanocrystals fabricated under ambient air conditions is achieved by blowing nitrogen (N 2 ) gas onto the surface of the perovskite-polymer-mixed precursor solution as it is being spin-coated and thus controlling the crystallization rate of the nanocrystals. To obtain uniform morphology, the experimental conditions are optimized, namely, the spin rate and N 2 gas blowing start time. Finally, a spin rate of 5000 rpm (revolutions per minute) and N 2 gas blowing for 10 s at 10 s after the start of spinning are found to be the optimal conditions. PeLEDs fabricated using the optimized N 2 blowing conditions provide a high maximum luminance (L) of approximately 11 610 cd m À2 and a current efficiency of approximately 4.42 cd A À1 at an L of 2328 cd m À2 accompanied by excellent operational stability. The PeLEDs are not only fabricated on rigid glass substrates but also on polymeric and elastomeric substrates, which demonstrates their potential application as flexible and wearable devices.
