Organic Tandem and Multi‐Junction Solar Cells [PDF]
Advanced Functional Materials, 2008 AbstractThe emerging field of stacked layers (double‐ and even multi‐layers) in organic photovoltaic cells is reviewed. Owing to the limited absorption width of organic molecules and polymers, only a small fraction of the solar flux can be harvested by a single‐layer bulk heterojunction photovoltaic cell.

Advanced Energy Materials, 2017 The meteoric rise of perovskite single‐junction solar cells has been accompanied by similar stunning developments in perovskite tandem solar cells. Debuting with efficiencies less than 14% in 2014, silicon–perovskite solar cells are now above 25% and will soon surpass record silicon single‐junction efficiencies.
