Photon energy utilization efficiency was proposed to assess the practical conversion performance of photovoltaic materials at the same aperture area. Monocrystalline silicon had the best energy utilization efficiency when the spectrum is the red-rich or close to the reference spectrum.
According to the Shockley-Queisser (S-Q) detailed-balance model, the limiting photovoltaic energy conversion efficiency for a single-junction solar cell is 33.7%, for an optimum semiconductor band gap of 1.34 eV.
In this review, we present and discussed the main trends in photovoltaics (PV) with emphasize on the conversion efficiency limits. The theoretical limits of various photovoltaics device concepts are presented and analyzed using a flexible detailed balance model where more discussion emphasize is toward the losses.
Solar cell efficiency decreases with increasing temperature. At 0 K, calculating SQ limits simplifies 14 because V OC = E g /q. Performance decreases approximately linearly to the 25 °C values.
