contents For efficient photovoltaic conversion, it is important to understand how quantum entropy-related quantities evolve during the photovoltaic process. In this study, using a double quantum dot (DQD) photocell model, we explored the dynamic quantum entropy-related parameters during the photovoltaic output. The findings demonstrate that the dynamic photovoltaic performance is compatible with quantum entropy-related parameters with varying tunneling coupling strengths, but at varied ambient temperatures, an opposing relationship is discovered between them. Hence, some thermodynamic criteria may be used to evaluate the photovoltaic process in this proposed photocell model. This work's merits include expanding our understanding of photoelectric conversion from a thermodynamic perspective as well as perhaps suggesting a new thermodynamic approach to efficient photoelectric conversion for DQD photocells.
