Abstract [en]
Tandem solar cells combining perovskite and CIGS have rapidly gained prominence as highly efficient photovoltaic devices. Recent advancements in enhancing their efficiency in-volve adjusting the thickness of distinct layers with tunable bandgaps, demonstrating superior performance compared to al-ternative tandem solar cells. The upper cell, employing perovskite material chosen for its excellent light absorption coefficient and optoelectronic properties, collaborates with the bottom CIGS cell, characterized by a tunable bandgap and low thermal requirements, contributing significantly to overall efficiency improvement. Through numerical simulations conducted with wxAMPS software, our proposed model, which incorporates a 3μm thick perovskite absorber layer as the upper cell and a 3.5μm thick CIGS absorber layer as the lower cell, demonstrated outstanding power conversion efficiency of 40.0209%, Voc of 1.8675 V, Jsc of 23.2146 mA/cm2, and FF of 92.3152
