Popis: Most research of texturization of solar cells has been devoted to Si based cells. For perovskites, it was assumed that texturization would not have much of an impact because of the relatively low refractive indexes lead to relatively low reflection as compared to the Si based cells. However, our optical modeling shows that a significant gain in perovskite (1.55 Ev) absorption from 84.6% to 93.5% for the wavelength range of 400 nm up to 800 nm. The largest gain in absorption is achieved between wavelengths of 700 nm and 800 nm. Because this is a range with a high photon density, the current density increases up to 10rel.%. We have modeled different sine texture sizes and show generic trends in performance with texture. Moreover, by introducing a texture, the light is locally concentrated, depending on the texture configuration. This offers new cell architectures with optimized front and back contacts.
