What will be the future of solar cells? Perovskite solar cells? OR III-V Solar cells ??
1. Perovskite solar : Easier to fabricate (can be printed like paper) and have low conversion efficiency but might include toxic materials.
2. III-V solar cell: Difficult to fabricate, however, it can provide higher efficiency (47.1%, 2020).
Dear Habib Ullah Manzoor ,
I think that the perovskite solar cells will be further developed to overcome its instability and toxicity. There is already appreciable advancements in the direction by using more stable perovskite materials and by using metal oxide transport layers which seal the material against the water moisture in the environments.
Because of the many advantages of such cell type it will be further developed for committal applications.
As for the the iii-v solar cells they may be used with optical concentrators.
But their cooling may limit their wide use in addition to the limited resources of their materials.
I am very convinced that the solar cell industry will be further depend on silicon solar cells with all type of silicon solar cells from the crystalline to the multicrysatlline to polycrystalline to microcrystalline to amorphous solar cells.
We developed newly the heavily doped silicon solar cells that do not need silicon with high purity or just need what is called solar grade silicon.
This issue is very important and did not receive the deserved attention.
Using heavily doped silicon can save tremendous cost in producing the silicon solar cell further.
I would like that you follow our research by looking for example to the paper in the paper in the link:Article Investigation of Base High Doping Impact on the npn Solar Ce...
