In recent years, perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells have shown their potential for photovoltaic systems, with the current research-cell record power conversion being 33.9%, which was achieved by LONGi Green Energy Technology. Surface texture is an important factor for reaching these high efficiencies, as the resulting increase in incoupling efficiency enhances light absorption. In collaboration with Fraunhofer ISE, we obtained a detailed understanding of the local light-matter interactions in textured perovskite-silicon tandem cells by studying 3D spatially resolved PL maps. With a confocal laser scanning microscopy setup at AMOLF, we were able to resolve spatial variations in PL intensity and center wavelength, providing information about the underlying origin of these variations, such as photon recycling, compositional variations and laser induced changes in the film. In order to isolate and study each factor independently, several changes in excitation conditions are necessary to exclude secondary effects, such as halide segregation by the light source.
