Emerging photovoltaic technologies continue to march forward with power conversion efficiencies of lead halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) nearing 26%, perovskite-Si tandems now exceeding the single junction detailed balance limit of 33%, and organic solar cells (OSCs) showing efficiencies nearing 20%. Yet, some of the photophysics underpinning PSCs and OSCs remain unresolved. A better understanding will enable more efficient and photostable solar cells and optoelectronic devices in the future. Here, this special issue collects the latest cutting-edge research in the photophysics of PSCs and OSCs, contributed by experts on spectroscopy, theory, device physics, and materials science.
