  2. Shockley–Queisser limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ShockleyQueisser_limit

    The ShockleyQueisser limit for the efficiency of a solar cell, without concentration of solar radiation. The curve is wiggly because of absorption bands in the atmosphere. In the original paper, [1] the solar spectrum was approximated by a smooth curve, the 6000K blackbody spectrum. As a result, the efficiency graph was smooth and the values ...

  3. Thermodynamic efficiency limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_efficiency_limit

    The Shockley-Queisser limit for the efficiency of a single-junction solar cell under unconcentrated sunlight. This calculated curve uses actual solar spectrum data, and therefore the curve is wiggly from IR absorption bands in the atmosphere. This efficiency limit of about 34% can be exceeded by multijunction solar cells.

    Breakdown of the causes for the Shockley-Queisser limit. The black height is Shockley-Queisser limit for the maximum energy that can be extracted as useful electrical power in a conventional solar cell. However, a multiple-exciton-generation solar cell can also use some of the energy in the green area (and to a lesser extent the blue area ...

    The numbers are normally not similar as you suggest. But in any case, f c cannot be more than 1, and the upper limit (the Shockley-Queisser limit) requires taking f c = 1. Eric Kvaalen 19:05, 6 September 2016 (UTC) Yes, virtually all above-gap photons come from recombination, but not all recombinations create above-bandgap photons.

  6. Perovskite solar cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perovskite_solar_cell

    The ShockleyQueisser limit radiative efficiency limit, also known as the detailed balance limit, [105] [106] is about 31% under an AM1.5G solar spectrum at 1000 W/m 2, for a Perovskite bandgap of 1.55 eV. [107] This is slightly smaller than the radiative limit of gallium arsenide of bandgap 1.42 eV which can reach a radiative efficiency of 33%.

  7. Solar-cell efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-cell_efficiency

    The ShockleyQueisser limit for the efficiency of a single-junction solar cell under unconcentrated sunlight at 273 K. This calculated curve uses actual solar spectrum data, and therefore the curve is wiggly from IR absorption bands in the atmosphere. This efficiency limit of ~34% can be exceeded by multijunction solar cells.

    For a two layer cell, one layer should be tuned to 1.64 eV and the other at 0.94 eV, with a theoretical performance of 44%. A three-layer cell should be tuned to 1.83, 1.16 and 0.71 eV, with an efficiency of 48%. A theoretical "infinity-layer" cell would have a theoretical efficiency of 68.2% for diffuse light. [11]

    English: The Shockley-Queisser limit for the maximum possible efficiency of a solar cell. The x-axis is the bandgap of the solar cell, the y-axis is the highest possible efficiency (ratio of electrical power output to light power input). (Assumes a single-junction solar cell under unconcentrated light, and some other assumptions too.)
