A bifacial solar cell (BSC) is any photovoltaicthat can produce electrical energy when illuminated on either of its surfaces, front or rear. In contrast, monofacial solar cells produce electrical energy only when photons impinge on their front side. Bifacial solar cells can make use ofradiation, which is useful for applications where a lot of light is reflected on surfaces such as roof.

Perovskite solar cells are solar cells that include a perovskite-structured material as the active layer. Most commonly, this is a solution-processed hybrid organic-inorganic tin or lead halide based material. Efficiencies have increased from below 5% at their first usage in 2009 to 25.5% in 2020, making them a very rapidly advancing technology and a hot topic in the solar cell field.

This coating works as the electrical contact of the solar cell. The contact on the n-side is called the front contact and that at the p-side is called the back contact or the rear contact. The n-side of a solar cell is thin so that the light incident on it reaches the depletion region where the electron-hole pairs are generated.
With a transparent rear side, bifacial solar cells can absorb light from both the front and rear sides. Hence, they can produce more electricity than conventional monofacial solar cells. The first patent of bifacial solar cells was filed by Japanese researcher Hiroshi Mori, in 1966.
