Abstract

Hybrid tandem solar cells comprising an inorganic bottom cell and an organic top cell have been designed and fabricated. The interlayer combination and thickness matching were optimized in order to increase the overall photovoltaic conversion efficiency. A maximum power conversion efficiency of 5.72% was achieved along with a V(oc) of 1.42 V, reaching as high as 92% of the sum of the subcell V(oc) values.
