The first antiferroelectric solar cell is presented. This study shows that antiferroelectric thin-film photovoltaic current can be switched on when biased into the polar phase to generate abovebandgap photovoltages in excess of 100 V and photovoltaic fields of several megavolts per centimeter, the largest ever measured for any material.
Keywords: above bandgap voltages; antiferroelectrics; photovoltaics.
