Abstract
In this thesis, we will design and implement various schemes of double-junction photovoltaic devices, in which the incident sunlight will be absorbed in different parts of the device, in order to optimize their photovoltaic efficiency. Various innovative geometries will be tested, involving among others Silicon substrates, GaAs thin films or nanowires, as well as films of hybrid perovskites.
