• Explored 3T-APTSC to overcome single-junction solar cell limitations, especially the SQ limit. • Demonstrated the superiority of three-terminal tandems, optimizing current matching and allowing independent adjustments. • Optimized PV parameters for 3T-APTSC: V OC 3.76 V, J SC 10.70 mA/cm2, FF 69.00 %, PCE 26.24 %. Despite numerous publications on two-junction tandems using SCAPS-1D simulation, there is a gap in research regarding three-junction tandems. This paper explores the advantages of three junction all-perovskite tandem solar cells (3J-APTSC) where we introduce a new methodology utilizing two-step filtered spectrum and current matching techniques in SCAPS-1D to design realistic tandem solar cells. Crucial steps involve determining filtered spectrum and current matching points among sub-cells for tandem optimization. Our designed three-terminal tandem solar cell exhibits promising photovoltaic parameters, including V OC : 3.76 V, J SC : 10.70 mA/cm2, FF: 69.00 %, and PCE: 26.24 %, achieved through optimized active layer thicknesses. This thorough examination of 3J-APTSC offers insights that could drive the future development of highly efficient tandem solar cells. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
