How can a photovoltaic response be modified?

The photovoltaic response can be modified under the application of a small magnetic field, with a magnetophotovoltage of up to 5% at room temperature. Device functionalities include a magnetic current inverter and the presence of diverging magnetocurrent at certain illumination levels that could be useful for sensing.

Are perovskite solar cells suitable for tandem solar cells?

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with an inverted (p–i–n) architecture are recognized to be one of the mainstream technical routes for the commercialization of this emerging photovoltaic technique owing to their competitive power conversion efficiencies (PCEs), good stability and compatibility with tandem solar cells.

Are perovskite solar cells a candidate for next-generation thin-film photovoltaic technology?

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have emerged as a promising candidate for next-generation thin-film photovoltaic technology owing to their excellent optoelectronic properties and cost-effectiveness. To gain the full potential of device performance, an in-depth understanding of the surface/interface science is an urgent need.

What is a molecular spin-photovoltaic (MSP) device?

We present the design and characterization of a molecular spin-photovoltaic (MSP) device that has several distinctive characteristics relative to previously reported inorganic spin-photovoltaic devices (12 – 14). It shows a switchable resistance and photovoltaic effect under low magnetic fields at room temperature.

Can a solar cell co-assemble a self-assembled molecule at the buried interface?

Here we report a molecular hybrid at the buried interface in inverted perovskite solar cells that co-assembled the popular self-assembled molecule [4- (3,6-dimethyl-9 H -carbazol-9-yl)butyl]phosphonic acid (Me-4PACz) with the multiple aromatic carboxylic acid 4,4′,4″-nitrilotribenzoic acid (NA) to improve the heterojunction interface.

What are OPV materials?

The development of OPV materials, especially electron acceptors, has been one of the focuses in recent years. Compared with fullerene derivates, n-type non-fullerene molecules have some unique merits, such as synthetic simplicity, high tunability of the absorption and energy levels, and small energy loss.
