Here, the authors fabricate inverted semitransparent PSCs with high-quality hybrid Au/Ag transparent top electrodes and fine-tuned dielectric mirrors (DMs). It is demonstrated that the device color can be tailored and the light harvesting in the PSCs can be enhanced by matching the bandgap of the polymer donors in the active layer with the specifically designed maximum-reflection-center-wavelengths of the DMs. A detailed chromaticity analysis of the semitransparent PSCs from both bottom and top (mirror) views is also carried out. Furthermore, the inverted semitransparent PSCs based on PTB7-Th:PC71BM with six pairs of DMs demonstrate a maximum power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 7.0% with an average visible transmittance (AVT) of 12.2%. This efficiency is one of the highest reported for semitransparent PSCs, corresponding to 81.4% of the PCE from opaque counterpart devices. The device design and processing method are also successfully adapted to a flexible substrate, resulting in a device with a competitive PCE of 6.4% with an AVT of 11.5%. To the best of our knowledge, this PCE value is the highest value reported for a flexible semitransparent PSC.
