Tandem cell for water cleavage by visible light

A tandem cell or photoelectrochemical system for the cleavage of water to hydrogen and oxygen by visible light has two superimposed photocells, both cells being connected electrically. The photoactive material in the top cell is a semiconducting oxide placed in contact with an aqueous solution. This semiconducting oxide absorbs the blue and green part of the solar emission spectrum of a light source or light sources and generates with the energy collected oxygen and protons from water. The not absorbed yellow and red light transmits the top cell and enters a second photocell, the bottom cell, which is mounted, in the direction of the light behind, preferably directly behind the top cell. The bottom cell includes a dye-sensitized mesoporous photovoltaic film. The bottom cell converts the yellow, red and near infrared portion of the sunlight to drive the reduction of the protons, which are produced in the top cell during the photo catalytic water oxidation process, to hydrogen.

Stacking polymer thin-film solar cell with parallel connection structure

The invention provides a tandem polymer solar cell with a parallel structure. In the solar cell, metals with a high work function such as gold and sliver are taken as a semitransparent anode to extract holes. A p-type metal oxide molybdenum trioxide or tungsten oxide is taken as a hole transport layer at two sides of the anode for connecting an upper sub-cell photosensitive layer and a lower sub-cell photosensitive layer so as to construct a built-in electric field and improve the collection efficiency of a current carrier. The photosensitive layers of an upper sub-cell and a lower sub-cell in the tandem cell are respectively a mixture consisting of a conjugated polymer and a fullerene derivative with different absorption ranges. The two sub-cells are connected in parallel, and short circuit current density of the tandem solar cell is the sum of the short circuit current density of the upper sub-cell and the short circuit current density of the lower sub-cell. By conjugated polymers with the different absorption ranges, the tandem polymer thin film solar cell effectively improves the active sunlight absorption and realizes that the short circuit current is effectively increased to 15 milliampere / square centimeter, thus increasing the maximum energy conversion efficiency of the polymer thin film solar cell to 3.36%.

Photovoltaic cells comprising two photovoltaic cells and two photon sources

A photovoltaic device comprises an upper cell and a lower cell separated by an electrically insulating layer. The cells and the layers are fabricated as a single monolithic structure, and separate electrical contacts are provided for the upper and lower cells to allow independent extraction of current from each cell. The upper cell has a larger bandgap than the lower cell so that incident low energy photons unabsorbed and unconverted by the upper cell can propagate through to the lower cell for conversion. The two bandgaps can be selected to accommodate spectral' ranges of interest. The device is incorporated into a system including two sources of photons with different wavelength ranges associated with the bandgaps of the two cells, such that each cell can convert photons from one source. One source may be the sun and the other may be a local photon source such as a thermal source. Alternatively, both photon sources may be local sources. Operation of the device can be further optimised and extended by configuring the upper cell as a tandem cell or in a MIMS arrangement, or both.
