The Analysis of Dual-Junction Tandem Solar Cells Enhanced by Surface Dispensed Quantum Dots

The Analysis of Dual-Junction Tandem Solar Cells Enhanced by Surface Dispensed Quantum Dots

The luminescent down-shifting (LDS) effect of a colloidal quantum dot layer on a dual junction solar cell is explored and analyzed. A 5.47% enhancement of power conversion efficiency is recorded when green quantum dots are dispersed on device surface. The surface reflectance spectra before and after...
