Integrated tandem dye solar cells

open access: yesRSC Advances, 2013
Tandem cells (or multi-junction cells) have been shown to be the most efficient architecture to achieve record performance for most photovoltaic technologies. In fact, tandem architectures allow devices to significantly broaden their overall absorbance spectra providing higher conversion efficiencies compared to individual cells.
