Because of several issues related to the polycrystalline form of perovskites, researchers are now focusing on single-crystal perovskite solar cells (SC-PSCs). Conventional solar cells consist of crystalline semiconductors based on Si, Ge, and GaAs.
Single crystal based solar cells as the big new wave in perovskite photovoltaic technology. Potential growth methods for the SC perovskite discussed thoroughly. Surface trap management via various techniques is broadly reviewed. Challenges and potential strategies are discussed to achieve stable and efficient SC-PSCs.
Finally, the challenges and perspectives of single crystal perovskite solar cells are discussed in detail. The authors declare no conflict of interest. Abstract The efficiency of perovskite solar cells has increased to a certified value of 25.2% in the past 10 years, benefiting from the superior properties of metal halide perovskite materials.
Challenges and possible solutions Research on the photovoltaic applications of single-crystal perovskite is in its early stages, where the gradual but continuous development of single-crystal-based PSCs have led to the utility of single-crystal perovskites for fabricating highly stable and efficient PSCs.
Challenges and potential strategies are discussed to achieve stable and efficient SC-PSCs. The structural disorder, large grain boundaries, and significantly high defect density within polycrystalline perovskite solar cells (PC-PSCs) have raised the issue of their sustainability for an extended period.
Conventional solar cells consist of crystalline semiconductors based on Si, Ge, and GaAs. Such solar cells possess higher efficiency and stability than polycrystalline solar cells, and SC-PSCs are inferior to PC-PSCs in terms of efficiency.
