Halide perovskite materials as light harvesters for solar energy

Photovoltaics (PV) provides the conversion of light quanta, photon, into direct current electricity through band gap materials. Typically, the energy conversion starts with the light-harvesting that is being absorbed by electrons in the valance band, causing excited electrons to transfer to a high energy state, and thus become free to move across the conduction band.

Why do solar cells have band gaps?

A solar cell delivers power, the product of current and voltage. Larger band gaps produce higher maximum achievable voltages, but at the cost of reduced sunlight absorption and therefore reduced current. This direct trade-off means that only a small subset of materials that have band gaps in an optimal range have promise in photovoltaics.
