Nearly all types of solar photovoltaic cells and technologies have developed dramatically, especially in the past 5 years. Here, we critically compare the different types of photovoltaic
The past decade has witnessed the rapid development of perovskite solar cells, with their power conversion efficiency increasing from an initial 3.8% to over 26%, approaching the Shockley-Queisser (S-Q) limit for single-junction solar cells. Multijunction solar cells have garnered significant attention due to their tremendous potential to surpass the S-Q limit by
These solar cells have accomplished a record efficiency of 23.4 % on their own, making them a promising option for use in tandem solar cells with perovskite layers [107]. CIGS-based solar cells feature a bandgap that can be modulated to as low as 1 eV [108] and a high absorption coefficient, indicating that they are effective at absorbing sunlight.

Crystals of CuInSe 2, i.e., copper indium selenide (CIS) form the tetragonal chalcopyrite crystal structure and are p-type absorber materials. They belong to the ternary compound CuInSe 2 in the I–III–VI2 family. Single-crystal CuInSe 2-based solar cells have been claimed to have 12% efficiency, a long way from the 1% achieved by the first CIS solar cell
