Abstract Solution‐processed gain media have great technological potential as lasers due to their ease of integration with on‐chip photonics, scalability and tuneable optoelectronic properties. Currently, the spectral coverage solution‐processed extends from visible up telecom wavelengths in short‐wave infrared (SWIR) (<1650 nm).

An integration of perovskite and cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar cells in a tandem configuration has the potential to yield efficient thin-film cells. Owing promise higher efficiency at low cost, presented study aims explore for combining this commercially established CdTe photovoltaics (PV) with next-generation PV. Here, we developed four-terminal (4-T) CdTe/perovskite cells, starting 18.3% near-infrared-transparent (NIR-TPSCs) an average transmission (Tavg) 24.76% 300–900 nm wavelength range. These were then integrated 19.56% opaque achieving 23.42% 4-T configuration. Additionally, using refractive index matching liquid increases overall power conversion (PCE) 24.2%. This pioneering achievement marks first instance cell exceeding PCE 24.2%, significant 123.72% increase PCE.

The current essential requirements PSCs reproducibility of high efficiency devices, scalability, stability. reported certified (24–26%) results based on use FAPbI3 perovskites with a bandgap Eg≈ 1.5 eV, typical device's active area ranges from ≈ 0.1 cm2 maximum 1 cm2. However, relatively higher essential, especially in tandem cell applications. Hence, optimization is necessity. As increases, goes down reduced JSC increased VOC loss. Therefore, understanding loss mechanism corresponding solutions need developed. Scaling up without compromising fill and, hence, non-trivial. So, large devices crucial. stability analysis literature inconsistent, preventing data comparison identifying various degradation factors or failure mechanisms.

Recent reports indicate that perovskite-based light emitting diodes (LEDs) have achieved an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 32%—rather internal close to 100%. Much this improved performance is attributed the role excitons. While experimental trends are encouraging, recombination parameters estimated through extensive curve-fitting photoluminescence transients often not amenable reasonable interpretations. In view same, a detailed analysis free carrier–exciton dynamics in perovskite optoelectronic materials, here we identify coherent scheme unambiguously back extract relevant parameters.
