Abstract

Toward high power-conversion efficiency (PCE) of a two-dimensional (2D) material solar cell requires carrier and light-management technologies. By strain-induced polarization of piezotronic and piezo-phototronic effect, under the standard AM1.5G solar spectrum, the maximum theoretical PCE is 54.4% o...
