I am simulating optical simulation of perovskite/Si tandem solar cells using FDTD I need to add the Material in the Lumerical FDTD . How can I add in the Material in Lumerical FDTD
As a general principle, the antireflection property determines the amount of sunlight that can be utilized in a solar cell and is thus a premise for achieving maximum efficiency, which makes it our first concern in designing the structure of the perovskite/c-Si TSC.
As far as I know, you can import refractive index data of each component of your solar cell structures.
The refractive index of the material can be found in experimental work (for example: from RefractiveIndex.INFO, or research articles).
You can refer to this paper for an example:
Kuang, Y., Ma, Y., Zhang, D., Wei, Q., Wang, S., Yang, X., ... & Liu, Y. (2020). Enhanced optical absorption in perovskite/Si tandem solar cells with nanoholes array. Nanoscale Research Letters, 15(1), 1-6.
