Under the groundswell of calls for the industrialization of perovskite solar cells (PSCs), wide-bandgap (>1.7 eV) mixed halide perovskites are equally or more appealing in comparison with typical bandgap perovskites when the former's various potential applications are taken into account. In this review, the progress of wide-bandgap organic-inorganic hybrid PSCs-concentrating on the compositional space, optimization strategies, and device performance-are summarized and the issues of phase segregation and voltage loss are assessed. Then, the diverse applications of wide-bandgap PSCs in semitransparent devices, indoor photovoltaics, and various multijunction tandem devices are discussed and their challenges and perspectives are evaluated. Finally, the authors conclude with an outlook for the future development of wide-bandgap PSCs.
Keywords: indoor photovoltaics; semitransparent perovskite solar cells; tandem solar cells; voltage loss; wide-bandgap perovskite.
