Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure provides a photovoltaic device that has a photon receiving surface and a first single homojunction silicon solar cell. The first single homojunction silicon solar cell comprises two doped silicon portions with opposite polarities and has a first bandgap. The photovoltaic device further comprises a second solar cell structure that has an absorber material with a Perovskite structure and has a second bandgap that is larger than the first bandgap. The photovoltaic device is arranged such that each of the first and second solar cells absorb a portion of the photons that are received by the photon receiving surface.
