Abstract
Emerging photovoltaic (PV) technologies are considered to be excellent candidates to be used as power sources for indoor and low‐light applications. The already demonstrated high power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) and the potential to manufacture perovskite, organic, or dye‐sensitized solar cells at low cost make them particularly interesting. In this work, the maximum PCE of PV devices under low‐light conditions is explored. The role of spectral mismatch, non‐radiative recombination, and parasitic Ohmic losses is investigated. The performed calculation provides guidelines to improve the low‐light performance of PV devices for ambient light. In addition, a simple measurement procedure for the indoor PCE is discussed.
